  1. Forum: AirGuns

    First PCP Airgun. Have a few noob questions.

    Just getting my feet wet in this whole airgun thing.

    Only 30cal mold I have on hand is a 210gr one. My Lyman book lists load data for cast bullets in the 30-06, but I was wondering if these loads might be to hard on the Garand action? Can this be...

    If the boolit noses are flat you can try standing them on the nose and pan lubing them. I’ve also seen guys dip loaded rounds up to the crimp groove in warm lube. Not exactly mess free but would...

    Are you sure it’s stainless? If it’s stamped “19” it has to be nickel or blued. S&W never made a 19 in stainless. Anyways back to your original question. 3fg black powder and a decent BP lube...

    In your first post you say “developed or maybe had it all along” which is it? Did the gun ever run 170gr bullets reliably? As others have said some guns just have short tight throats that make...

    1886 Winchester/Miroku Extra-Light -- the 1st Dozen

    Those Miroku folks know how to make rifles. It’s just a shame that the current owners of Winchester make them put tang safeties and rebounding hammers. I’ve got two Browning (Miroku) rifles that...

    Slugging the bore on a 1894

    Because you asked, the proper way to do it is with a pure lead round ball that is just slightly bigger than the bore and brass rod as close to the bore diameter as possible. Heavily oil your bore...

    Winchester 94 30wfc

    Seeing as this is a recent problem and it does it with both factory and reloads I am thinking it’s an issue with your chamber or throat. I’d coat one of the live rounds that is causing a problem...

    Thoughts on Rossi 92 in 45 colt?

    For under $500 they are not bad rifles that can be made a lot better with a little TLC.

    While the fit and finish on a Rossi leaves a lot to be desired, the 92 design is sound.
