1975 with a carboard boxed Lee Loader for 8x57 Mauser. Winchester primers, Winchester once fired brass, IMR4895, a small hammer, and I don't remember what bullet, probably splurged on Sierra 150g.

This is a real restaurant with Health Department inspections (not that that means much in PG Co. MD). It's not like the guy with the cart outside the bars in San Luis or Tijuana. [smilie=l:

We have a local place named "Street Tacos" that had interesting signs inside last time I was there.

All of my rifles will do that if the follower is removed. But then, they become single shots, which negates the coolness of butter smooth. [smilie=1:

It's used all the time for everything by Brits. Not just machining - it applies to anything you may be doing. My Aunt from England would say it sometimes. The hosts on the British car shows say it...

I shortened a Lyman .44 Special Seat and Crimp die for .44 Colt (modern, not rebated bullet). Just a hair longer than the .44 Russian. The expander die was adjustable far enough to work without...

I thought this would be a thread about my Son in Law.
My 6 year old inner brain has a question; why do we hunt turkey in the Spring and eat them in the Fall?

Ditto what Delkal said.
Don't go changing feed ramps on the receiver before trying different seating depths or changing to a different bullet. Stoning or filing on a receiver is permanent and can...

I use it in everything from 223 to 8x57 and 30-06 for fmj plinking loads. The various loading manuals data shows TAC is a hair faster than H4895, about 1/2 grain at start loads for 308. Closer to...
I have a Husky 640 on the FN commercial action. My most used deer rifle.
30-06 can be resized into 8x57 easily. All my brass is converted Lake City 30-06.

My Cimarron Open Tops are Uberti made. Better finish and quality according to Cimarron and general CAS shooters' comments back in the day. I don't know, they still had the short cylinder pin/need a...
