Price Drop. $550 OBO

Sorry. $600 OBO, located in North Alabama.

I'm wanting to sell my Mauser in 458 American. The wood is beautiful, but has minor handling dings. The metal is good, but the finish is thin on bottom plate. There is a chip in the recoil pad,...

45-08! 200 gr cast @ 1400 fps from a "45 acp"

Looks like antimony but could also be bismuth. Mcheck out the product videos on Rotometals to compare.

Probably my two favorite calibers. I looked hard at the internationals,mbut there wasn't a caliber I like, so I ended up with a ruger in 257 Roberts. Had I only known...

I'm kinda funny in this. I shoot my pistols on paper some, but honestly don't ever measure the groups. With my 1911, I can line at at 20 yards and hit the chickens 9/10 times freehand, then I am...

Ruger no. 1 in 300 win mag. Recoil doesn't usually bother me (my bench work load for deer and pig is a 350 grn bullet at 2225 fps), but the recoil on that 300 bothered me. It didn't help that it...

My vote goes for 7/08. Less recoil, and a new caliber to mess with.

The flip side, from my perspective is that "everyone" has a 300. Now, that's my way of thinking, but it's true.
The socom will take any 458 rifle mold, of which there are many. It uses standard...

I agree. CZ makes some very nice rifles.

Why not get one that could become his first hunting gun. Use it a lot, tweak it a little, then let him use it. Low recoil calibers like 6.5x55, 257...

Yes. I used lee case lube on the necks. When I pulled the expander ball it, it had sufficient lube on it and was clean. Could the dies be lowering the neck diameter too far?

I'll second that. People who think they deserve something just because they're alive.

I have not annealed them. I've never had the need before, so I haven't started.

Hey guys,

I thought I'd share my rifle with you and ask a question in the process. It is a 1909 Peruvian Mauser in 458 American. The scope is a 1-3X Weaver. It shoots pretty well, and I am very...

Hello all,

I'm in need of some advice. I am working up some loads for my Ruger M77 ultralight in 257 Roberts. I started with PPU 7X57 brass and ran them through my RCBS sizing dies with no...

Make one up in 458X2". Basically a 45/70 if you want to load it that way, plus a little more if you are so inclined. It is belted and can be made to feed a lot easier.

One thing we have to be careful of is assuming that since something was also chambered in a higher pressure cartridge, then it is safe for higher pressure. Manufacturers, in my understanding, can...

My primary will be a 1909 Peruvian Mauser in 458 american (458X2"). 350 gr Honrady flat point at 2225 fps.

Backup is a 257 roberts ruger m77 ultralight. Still working on a load for it, but we've...

My thoughts exactly. Makes sense, but the state of California is anything but a slave to logical thought.

I use a 99 cent saucepot I got from goodwill; maybe 2-3 quart. My heat source is a free two burner hotplate. One keeps my mold hot, the other melts the lead. My ladle is a semi-squished condiment...

By pressure casting you are using the weight of all the lead in the ladle to push lead into the mold as opposed to just using gravity to pull the lead in that will become the bullet. From a fluids...

Ithaca model 49 single shot 22. Still takes a ton of force to cock the thing! Don't know how I ever did it as a ten year old.

When you do shoot one, look for very clear landmarks of where it was when you shot. Things look completely different from the ground, and it is so easy to lose where the deer exactly was.

When it...

If you want something just a little bit different (something I'm often accused of), why not go with a wildcat. A 22-25acp comes to mind...
