Shot it in my Walther PPQ today. It would not cycle the slide consistently. Shoots fine in other non-auto guns for me.

You are correct..the barrel is set back, but I was unable to determine why. Seems like you answered that mystery. It is some sort of aftermarket stock which I know will lower the value. I did check...

I got this gun as part of a buyout from an older gentlemen. From what research I have done, I think I have something pretty nice here. It looks to be a Winchester model 52 target rifle, heavy barrel...

I am pulling what is left of my hair out on this deal. I did the clocking thing to see if the die was the issue..no..it did it at random. I tried the belling die..very light belling....still did it....

Good idea as far as the indexing goes. I will give that a shot tomorrow.

I'd appreciate any help here. I just picked up a cool old Smith 32-20. Attempting to load some cast into some new brass. This is my first go-around with small bottleneck cases.

I have the boolits...

I guess that settles it then.

The length on the rams are 4 7/8" long. Does that help at all?

I kinda knew they were rams, but didn't know which one. They accept shellholders. In addition, they have set screws in them...which I have never seen before in a press ram.

I got a bunch of these in a load of parts the other day. They are new, but have some surface rust. I know they look to be part of a press but I have no idea which one.

Any help? Value?

Once again, thanks for the responses!

Thanks for the info. I hate to lose all this as it is worth quite a bit at today's prices. I'm going to try a few rounds and see what happens!

I did a buyout of an older gentleman today and he gave me...yes gave me (as part of the deal)...about 20lbs of powder of different types. The newest one here looks to be from the early 80's...and I...

Well...how about these apples. I went to visit my Dad in Florida this weekend. He wanted a smaller revolver for himself, so we went shopping at the local shops. Walked into the FIRST ONE..and...

Thanks for the info. He emailed me back..it is a consignment, so he can't move on the price. I gotta think about this for a while.

Well..I do want it. What I really want is an old school Smith 32-20...but it seems quite hard to find one in decent shape for $500 or so. If it was at $750ish...I'd prob bite. $900 is just a tick too...

Exactly what I was thinking...$500-$600 tops. Way outta line at $900.

I think he's high at $900, but looking for opinions.

Plain based...lubed, two grooves.

I ended up with about 300 130gr cast boolits in 30 cal...and I would like to load them for my 30/30. I can't seem to find any super reliable load data outside of about 7 or 8 grains of Unique as a...

Here's an update. I decided to just give my old 870 Express pump a skeet choke and let it roll. I hit 17 out of 25 singles. Not too bad for a guy who does not have much experience in my book!

I...

Randy....I agree. The more I have thought about this whole deal..after reading everyone's opinions..and thinking about it...I'm going to roll with my pump and see what's up. I am certain a few guys...

As always, when you ask for opinions, they come in all shapes and sizes. I appreciate every one!

Some day I would love to use it. That said, starting out I think the last thing I need to do is add another layer of difficulty...pumping. I am really liking the idea of the 1100.

Ok..it looks like a cool piece. Any other opinions?
