I have done a few using this method. It works well and is easy.

I did a Savage/Stevens 220 and 94 conversion to 357 magnum a few years back. It worked out well and really wasn't difficult.

Here is a link to the build:...

Believe I'll go with the tarp idea. I got the Khar today and did get in a bit of shooting between the rain and skeeters. Must say that I am very impressed with this gun. The first round at 15 feet...

Thank you Gent. I have had a lot of auto handguns and some of them have been more enthusiastic in ejecting than others. After dealing with the CZ82, I was beginning to fear I'd not recover a lot of...

I have a Kahr CW45 on the way and am wondering how far and in what direction these things throw brass. I've had several auto handguns through the years and they all seem to have a pattern. What got...

I have done some stub ups that worked pretty well, but not one of these full length jobs. Do you have some pictures that you can post? I'm sure that I am not the only one that would love to see some...

Sometimes they will flip the negative so the person will be facing the right way. In classical imagery the good guys come from the right to the left. Bad guys are always (almost) on the left side.

If you can live with the loads in the guide that comes with it, you can make decent ammo with the scoop. I got my first LL in 1963 and loaded a boat load of 8x57 with it. Years later I got fancy and...

I use the exact HF belt sander. It is cheap and works great. After a short learning curve it is very fast. I take the blade to a good leather strop and have a very sharp smooth edge. If I want to go...

I second that. The taking apart is a job, but the putting together is a mess. I broke a firing pin, made another and damn if I didn't break it. The receiver is in a box waiting for me to get in a...

Thanks guys for the info. I've had this gun since 1980 and have never shot much more than factory loads in it. I've reloaded for a long time just never messed with the 38 Spl. I'll try that Keith...

Thanks guys I was of a mind to go for one of Keith's top end loads, but thought I'd ask first. I am going on a hog hunt and would really like to whack one with a handgun. My main piece will be a 35...

Thanks for the reply bhn22. I went out today and shot several loads of 5.5 gr Unique with a gas checked 158 gr SWC. There was no evidence of anything wrong. Cases looked good and the gun just shot...

I posted this on the 38/44 thread, but it wasn't getting any hits, so I decided to ask this in its own thread.

I am thinking about some stiff 38/44 loads for my Ruger Service Six with 38 special...

I have a Baikal single shot in 270 Winchester. It is a really solid all steel gun. Mine has a synthetic stock and is very light. The trigger needed a bit of work but that was pretty simple to take...

This is the first time I've seen this thread even though it's been around quite a while. Anyway, to the point, I am thinking about some stiff 38/44 loads for my Ruger Security Six with 38 special...

I used to reload with a Lee Loader for the exact same rifle. It had the big heavy octagon barrel. Loaded and shot a lot with that gun. Always used black and just poured the case full and then put the...

I had an Astra 600 in 9x19 and shot a ton of Israeli submachine gun rounds in it. I has always shot whatever I ran through it. I dont' know of the submachine gun stuff is up to +P, but I'll bet it...

The results speak for themselves. Great great shooting and write up. Reading comments on modern hyper magnum latest and greatest, makes me wonder how the early folk ever killed anything before the...

Yes, it was quite a deal on those things for a short while. They also had wooden stocked ones, Needless to say, they didn't last very long. I picked up two of the 270's but a friend talked me into...

I have shot 0.490 patched round balls in a 1:24 inline. It did ok at 50 yards with about 50 grains(by volume) of 777. I haven't tried it at longer range or with more or less powder. I seem to recall...

A while back I picked up a plastic stocked Baikal single shot in 270 Winchester. CDNN had them for $169 in various calibers, but by the time I got my order in the only had the 270's left. My first...

I recently found an 8x57 that loaded with my brand new Lee Loader when I was 15. That was in 1963. It went bang just fine. That was the first rifle I ever reloaded for.

Yes they do get smoother and easier to open with use. I sat in front of the tube and open and close mine for a while and it made a diff. Done the same with other single shot break opens I've had in...

I have an old spanish 93 Oviedo that was cut down. It still had the original sights. The rear sight was taken off base sleeve and all. The sight sleeve was replaced with a piece of pipe bored to the...
