Very nice! I've been curious about these for a while, how do they stay tight and not slide forward? Could be convinced to make one for one of my rifles too. [emoji846]

Very nice, I like it! I built one in 357 a few years ago, not too complicated just take a bit of time. I stuck with Frank's plans pretty well, but ended up having to change the hammer spring strut a...

Beautiful rifle! Been wanting to make one like that as well with an old cadet I have in the safe. I do have another rifle in 357 mag that I put together, 1-16 twist Douglas barrel. Haven't tried cast...

I had the Savage Cub for several years, it is a great size for young kids. It's the regular bolt action just has the short barrel and short stock. My seven year old brother could shoot it quite well!

I adjusted the trigger on a full stock model that one of my friends has, its a really nice rifle! Before a started I shot a 3/4 inch group at 50 yards with it, and I was impressed. Then after I had...

I have used that bedding kit for several rifles, and as far as I know it seems to work well. Bedded a Ruger synthetic stock and it most definitely improved the accuracy of the rifle. I also bedded a...

I have some of them, they do seem to have more power than CCI's. Work fine, but a fair bit louder. They kill squirrels with ease though!

From what I understand to ship into Canada from down there any "gun parts" valued over 100 dollars must have an export permit from the state gov. Canada is just fine without an import permit, but the...

Many thanks for your offer Ben, I do appreciate it! But this is something I need to do myself for my friend. However if you will ship finished work into Canada I may have opportunity to use your...

Hello fellows! I'm wondering if someone can point me in the right direction for a wood finish that will more or less duplicate the finish found on Ruger's number 1 rifle stocks. I have to refinish...
Thanks fellas! Now I might be forced to buy something to shoot them in. Aww nuts!
Hi there! Just wondering how many of you guys have used the lyman 429383 boolit and what did you use it in? Supposed to be 245 grns, it has a round nose.
Just picked up a double cavity mold a while...

I know Douglas Barrels will sell you an unturned blank in any cal, rifle or pistol, in lengths of 25, 27, and 29 inches. I think they will sell you contoured blanks in any caliber as well.

Forum: Boolit Lube !
How fast have you guys shot boolits with this lube? Wondering if it would stand up to 30-30 velocity, 2100-2200 fps.
Lar45, do you ship to Canada?
Ok thanks, Mike, I'll see what I can do. I don't have any lee loaders yet, I wanted to figure out what I need before I went out and bought one.
Hi all.
I have a question about the Lee loader, can I use the one for 30-30 for 303 savage or will I have to bore it out a bit so the fat base on the 303 will fit?
I will need to flare the case...

My savage 99 in 300 savage is my favorite lever. Shoots 1 1/2 to 2 inches at 100 yds. with open sights. I do also like the winchester and marlin rifles but they're not my favorites.

Wow, thanks for the replies. It would probably be a better idea to stick with the original barrel in 12.7-44r then or if I rebarrel to 50-70 with blackpowder I guess. Thanks again, just wanted to see...
