It's been gone for close to a week now. Anyone else try to get there the last few days?

Picked up a M1895 Nagant to go with my Mosin and Tok. Got some 78g & 120g boolits to start with.

Local Scheels has a bunch of flavors of VV. No interest there, but there was 2lb's of Shooters World Clean Shot sitting there. I think that is close to the AA #2 I used a bunch of bitd. Grabbed one...

Or maybe just looking for advice on using what you have on hand is a bad thing?

I was out working with my Tok's yesterday. For 90g boolets I use these, https://www.snscasting.com/32-90-grain-round-nose-flat-point-red-coated-500ct/, run thru a .310 sizer. 5g of HP38, and 6.4g 0f...

I'm fairly new to these old Mausers and still trying to figure out the specifics on it. I'm not pulling it apart till winter as it's shooting season lol! What I think I know so far is it probably...

I finally found a WW1 rifle I like. An old Mauser. I'm new to 8mm so looked for the fattest .32-40 boolet to buy and went with Meister's 170g FP at .323" By the time I got enough of it in the neck...

2 weeks ago my local Scheel's had a whole shelf full of CCI 500 spp's for $45/K. Hope that isn't the new "normal" price. They also had a bunch of bullets, but still no powder.

Found the WW1 rifle I was looking for. 1918 Danzig Kar98a.

I'm not into casting yet, so use these .32-20's in my plinkers.

Out of the bag in the Enfield...

Nope, they have about 500mi. on them.

These triples are kind of fickle. I'm glad to be down to 1 now. 75 H1F.

Well, you can't keep them all. I was using this for living room art for the last 10yrs. Got an offer I couldn't pass on.

Like all my projects, it's 2 steps forward and 1 back.
For ammo, I settled on 1 .5cc and 1 .3cc scoop of Pyrodex P with an over powder card cut with a 3/8" hole punch out of a beer box divider. That...

The serial # is T 11370. If you get a chance to look for a date I'd appreciate it.

hporter, that's a nice looking pistol! Last night found a youtube disassembly vid and got the trigger guard off. The trigger spring wasn't broke, it was gone. Got all the replacement springs ordered...

Thanks Larry. I don't plan on shooting this much. I'm going to look for some BP.

This is what happens when I get bored and go to the gun show lol! Picked up this beat up IJ project. After an hour of google-fu it appears to be a deeper rabbit hole than I thought. With 2 pins in...

Another +1 on the KCI mags. I have both 15 & 30's. They both work great for me.

Here's something I learned about Starline brass last week. Brownell's had .30 Mauser on sale so I picked up a couple bags for my Tok's. The .30 M brass is .020" longer than their 7.62x25, and is the...

Tried the 7/7.5g loads yesterday. The 7.5g was still a little better. Not quite what I got last try, had to hurry as the rain was rolling in. I concur with the others whose rifles like the lighter...

Had a 9mm day at the gunshow a couple weekends ago. Traded a Taurus I didn't like for a Star BM. Next row over I see this dusty jug of AA#5. Seal was intact so dickered down to $45. It burns good so...

I've been watching this thread with interest, having picked one up last year. I bought a box of SNS 125g TCFP coated boolits to start with....

Found a pistol to go with my lend/lease Savage Enfield. A S&W (pre) Victory. Loaded a few of those boolits over 2.5g of HP38. Soft shooter compared to my .38 snub and GP100. Sort of like having the...

Wandering thru a gun show a couple years ago I find this Spanish M1916. Didn't know anything about Mausers, but was already set up to load .308, and looked like it would be fun to shoot against my...
