I had one for awhile. It's a great carry gun!!
I just ended up trading it on something else.
I had an original Shield in .40 with the safety. I intended to carry it safety off. That was all fine and dandy until I pulled it out one day and the safety had been applied. I found a youtube video...

I counted 631 pieces, but I could be off by a few. I picked this up at an auction last week. The gentleman that processed was a well known gunsmith/reloaded in the area. As far as I can tell, it was...

I would powder coat and push through size if needed.

Looks a whole lot better than my setup: a Lee 20lb sitting on a 1×12 laid across the tailgate of my pickup.

I have about 750 Sage Outdoors .458 Plain Base gas checks. I would like to swap them for .452 plain base gas checks.

I've load a whole lot of 223 for 3 gun. I use standard dies and whatever SR primer I have on hand at the time.

I hope they'll put out good guns at decent prices.
I dont expect the today's ruger to start offering guns in old, obscure chamberings.
Perhaps they can build a box-mag lever rifle to compete...

I have a savage 99 in 30-30. Serial number 304818, and the lever boss has an M stamped on it. It has the rotary magazine and a carbine buttplate.
When I go to the savage dating site, the serial...
Hard to go with one of them!
That Alex trigger is great too if you want to upgrade it.

Make the boolits soft and it'll work fine I'd imagine. I've shot deer with the same alloy you're using out of a 30-30, and it wasn't great.

I’ve used both Hi Tek and PC.
In my experience, getting the PC to stick to the bullets in the proper amounts has been tricky at best. I’ve tried varying preheat temps and times, and I either get...

My old man used to have a beretta 92, and I wonder if that thing had any rifling. It would chamber ANYTHING.

We buy bullets made from copper and devote the massive amounts of time we spent casting doing other gun related stuff.

I may have to start to pick up more range lead. I quit for awhile but hospital lead is getting harder to find in my area.

I’d get all the goodies I could with a 650.
The reality is, for the amount I shoot (more than the average cat, as I shoot USPSA and 3gun) I feel like the 550 does a fine job. I load 9mm, 40,...
