eBay quit allowing ammo on their auctions a number of years ago. There are several boxes on GunBroker.com right now running from $55 to $75 plus shipping. I've got a box + 7. PM me if you'd be...

Hawkeye, if you want to know for sure, here's how. Write a letter to the Savage Historian, John T. Callahan, P.O. Box 82, Southampton, MA 01073 and give him the SN and other data on the rifle and any...

In my opinion, this is a 99C as the original post stated. Pages 3-34 and 3-35 of Murray's book shows the Model 99-C Standard Weight Short Barrel, Solid Frame Rifle. Date introduced 1922, discontinued...

If you want jacketed bullets and a bit more pizzazz, find a box of Canadian CIL-Imperial ammo. It's 38-55 load is the standard 255 gr jacketed flat point, but it's loaded for 1600 fps muzzle velocity...

Congratulations on owning a fine old rifle. Your dad had good taste! Yes, the hunting loads were pretty stout but they were made for stopping some pretty stout critters. If and when you run across...

The last time I saw 22 LR in a store they wouldn't sell to me because I was underage and I'll be 80 next month. :kidding: Kidding, but only on the first part. I haven't seen any 22 LR in stock in a...

I pulled my Donnelly book and it's technically "The Handloader's Manual of Cartridge Conversions" by John J. Donnelly. Mine was published in 1987 by Stoeger. They are available on that despised...

Cases for the 45-60 are simple - shorten your 45-70 brass from 2.10" to 1.89" and you've got 45-60 brass. 32-40 can be formed from 38-55, 30-30 or 32 Special cases. Lots of info on the 'Net about...

Well it's no wonder the links don't work. DUHHH! :veryconfu When all else fails, look at the date.

And I'm just the opposite of Cherokee. IMO, there ought to be a law against talking about an original Winchester 1873 and an asian knock-off in the same paragraph. I wouldn't trade my 1883 vintage...

Here's one that's on Gunbroker now. It's a 1957 model and, if I was in the market, I'd be on this like the white on rice. Anyway, here's what they look like.

See if this helps your wife, Springfield. GREAT group, by the way. I don't blame her for the big smile.

Graf's has that Starline 40-65 in-stock at $59.99/100. That's a pretty righteous price IMHO.

It would likely be this one - my 1886 Win in 33 WCF. It'll do just about anything that needs doing anyplace I'm going to hunt....

Thanks Gillie Dog. An hour seems to do as good a job as a longer period. And thanks to alfloyd - a LOT less Dawn seems to do just as good a job and saves a lot of $$. I appreciate all you experienced...

Had a deal with him on some 10mm brass. Fast pay and great communications. I'd deal here again in a heartbeat.

He bought my tumbler recently. Fast pay and great communications. He's welcome any day.

Pickup magnet with release?? Not familiar with this.

It's not a 66, but these guys have reintroduced the old "Climbin' Lyman" side sight for the Win levers. This looks...

Well, today’s the big day when I join the “Wet Tumbling” club. After asking lots of dumb questions and watching a number of on-line videos I’m ready to do it. For my first attempt I’ve got a bag of...

I was wondering the same question as Tackleberry. Great answer, thanks.

I'd be happy to post a follow-up with before and after pics. I've got a specific batch of brass in mind for my trial run. I'm definitely a newbie to the world of wet tumbling, but not to loading...

Bayou, your pic hurt my eyes. :kidding: Wow, what a job! That's what I'm after. And thanks VHoward for the video link. It's bookmarked. It sounds like the guy's talking in an echo chamber but it gets...

I'm like the dog that chased cars till he caught one and then didn't know what to do with it. I recently bought a Lortone tumbler and 5# of stainless steel pins from two members of this forum. Now...
