I used to shoot way over 1000 rounds a year. Then I got old and crippled and trying to work as a beat up old carpenter was tough. I had always envisioned retired life as shooting 3 times a week and...

Farmbif You are right! I am talking about something cheap, but if I can build something that preforms also it would be a major accomplishment. A rimed cartridge would be very difficult to get to feed...

The Rugers were overpriced at the time. I have a friend that bought one 4 or 5 years ago and it was over $850 then if I recall. I was thinking that it would be a good way to have a suppressed rifle...

I wish I had got a few of the compass rifles, everybody loves them. CDNN had Sako TRGS rifle for sale and I bought one of the super magnums, I should have bought them all.

What bullet do you use in a 32 special? Book says it needs a .321 bullet, and the Sierria manual says they don't make a .321 bullet. If Sierria doesn't I doubt many of the others do either, thye...

A CZ or a Howa mini action in 30 carbine would be perfect. super light and a low power scope. That would be the Iguana killingest machine in all of south Florida. If it had a suppressor even better....

A friend bought a bunch of reloading stuff at a flea market Saturday. I was just looking through it and noticed a bunch of 30 carbine brass. Was thinking maybe this would be the cheap to shoot...

If I could pick up brass for a Grendel off the ground like a 223, I would not have any 223s only Grendels.

I will type what is on the Grainger receipt. O-ring,EPDM, Dash 349,4-7/8 O.D.,PK5 41UT40 I told the salesman the OD needed to be 4 5/8 with a 3/16 thick ring. He measured and came back...

What is basically a 9mm necked down to 22? please tell us much more.

It is running as we speak with an O ring from Grainger. If I had my wishes it would be a tiny bit shorter, the motor is at the limit of its adjustment and still I would like it to be a little...

Belt broke on Rebel 17 and Ive seen several posts about replacements that will last should be an O ring not the fragile belt from Rebel. But none of them list a number or size to base a replacement...

Ive got 22LRs and they are in fact as cheap as it gets. Just looking at something reloadable, for the future. Maybe its time to start reloading 22s or making priming compound and reloading primers.

Some of the new 308 Hornaday's have crimped primers, look first and save yourself some grief.

I shoot range brass all the time, in todays world I don't see how a person could walk past a piece of brass that could be used. I spend lots of time sorting to like headstamps with my rage brass, not...

I looked at the Lee website for a 22 caliber mold and they only listed one as best I could tell. In the back of my mind I seem to remember hearing that they were very difficult to cast and get a...

My attempts at a cheap shooter have never been to build a high dollar rifle or handgun. But more of a contraption. I have made some tools and rebarreled a S&W revolver and could do somethng on that...

Many BR shooters say that a small rifle primer is problematic with cases loaded with over 40 grains of powder. I have no idea but if I wanted to use the SRP brass I would use SRP magnums if...
