Yeah, TN, and that situation has gotten worse during, and after the pandemic. Prior to that, I got all my stuff from them and usually didn't have much trouble. They have SOME hulls now . Wads seem to...

I'm a member at the 16 ga Society site, there are a lot of people there that eat and sleep 16 ga. They can usually help with whatever you need to know. There are loading spreadsheets available etc.

I killed my first squirrel in 1960 when I was 6 with my dad's Stevens 107B single barrel (still have it). It almost knocked my down when I shot it, he always hunted squirrels with "hi-base" 6's, so...

yep!

16 ga 7/8 oz#8. handloads smokes'em. shoot where they're goin', not where they've been!

mine was $125 with 25.50 for return shipping.

I have run some 4/0 steel wool down this barrel, I read that was what "somebody" recommended that he did when lapping barrels. I didn't do it like that tho. That "somebody" was Lee Shaver, but I...

love it in my JES 38/55. I shoot it over 4227 and dacron for about 1350 fps. It shoots as well as I can.

I didn't take it that way, I was joking. Yeah, I don't know what we will do, he's a rare soul with considerable talent and a strong work ethic. A dying breed regrettably.

Maybe I sounded "shady"!:smile:

Well LC, I offered to send him the money when I contacted him initially. I wouldn't have asked him to do it any other way. You're right, there aren't many trusting souls left these days....

AA#5 is what I load all my pistol calibers with except 45 ACP ( I have several # of Clays left over from loading 12 ga target loads). It's roughly the same speed as Unique (slightly slower) but, in...

I need to add, I sent him $20 extra for shipping. When he sent it back to me, it costed him $25.50 I noticed. He didn't ask, but I sent him more money. Just informing, so y'all can judge how much to...

well, due to the cap shortage, I want to "speed" along the breaking in process

Yeah, I bet. How many did you run?

Noblade, do you just run the JB paste coated patches with a jag or do you fire lap with them?

I forgot to say the twist he gave me, 1:66". I added that to my original post. My barrel is 36" long, maybe that's why he did the slower twist than the 1:60" he used for the shorter Renegade barrels....

I got my 54 cal GM barrel that I had rebored to 58 cal today. He said on the phone that he "would get to it when he could" that he was covered up. Turnaround time was 3 weeks and 2 days. I posted...

I made one of these (Cherokee) in the '80's from a kit. Still have it. In their companion book they recommend .315 ball. Mine likes 30 gr Pyrodex P.

That was a very interesting read Bob, thank's. I have an old Mod '94 Win that seems to have been made the first year of their production. Serial no 119xx it says on the barrel: "nickel steel barrel...

I was told by "the net" that the best time was early in the morning before the machines started and he couldn't hear the phone. I called once at 7:30 (cst) and got an obvious answering machine...

My feeling after talking to him, is that he'll do anything you want. I think the 58 cal RB twist might be the best bet, best I understand, the the 62 smooth bore would be like a 20ga no choke- not my...

Beautiful rifle. I agree with elmacgyver. I'm not bad with my hands, but some of the stuff y'all do on this site is humbling. :smile:

I hope this turns out, this is a really nice rifle except for the barrel, which isn't Jack's fault.

yeah, this barrel came off a custom full stock Hawken that I had Jack Garner make for me back in 1991. I got a Ron Long lock, Davis triggers, really nice rifle. I was a lot younger then, and a 1x 36...
