I use a window washer jug box filled with flyers and free newspapers.
I get the boxes free from work and they are 10”x12”x16 ish long.
If you give the box a wrap or ten of duct tape or packing...

I have a NEF Survival gun in 45/410. It is Mom’s garter snake gun. (Don’t ask)
22? 24? Inch barrel.
Interchangeable chokes with spares in the plastic thumb hole buttstock.
Typical break action...

Was talking to an electrician and as we were swapping stories he told me about o e of his customers who has a rural grocery store. He said the freezers were in an insulated garage. The heat from the...

I thinned a bunch of 45 Schoefield rims in a little drill press last winter. Just chucked them and spun them as slow as the press was set for. Didn't take too many hours to do all 100 pieces, but...

The 455 runs about 12000psi, where the 45 ACP runs about 20000, or is it 21000psi?
So running a 45 ACP is like running a proof load through the gun every time you drop the hammer.
Pretty hard on...

RCC Brass seems to make some, but it looks like they run at almost $8 per.
You would have headstamped brass in your rifle's flavour.
When I formed 30-30 into 219 Zipper I resized in stages. I also...

I've got a couple days at home to muck around, so I'm playing with my Norinco 7.62x39 bolt action rifle.
Gotta love Chinese quality control as the bore is around .317 diameter.
I've Beagled my...

32 acp aren't illegal in Canada. Just the firearms. Good luck finding ammo for a Prohibited firearm.
I've had decent luck with TrailBoss or other shotgun powders for reduced loads.
Give TrailBoss a...

There was an outfit that advertised in Firearms News. They had a bunch of sabot sizes. Buddy bought some to fire 223 bullets in his '06.
I'm not sure if you could get 30 cal to 357 cal sabots, but...

I am going to suggest more molds. I bought myself a tonne of lead a few years ago and my biggest bottleneck was waiting for the ingots to cool. I used both angle iron and channel iron molds, all...

Rather than conveyor belting, I use old mudflaps that have been torn off transport trucks. As a trucker I find them in the back row of truck stops, or next to bomb craters in the parking...

I have a couple of those angle iron double gang molds. Once they get heated up the lead runs into its own side with very little flashing. I think the rust works like a release agent.
I made them so...

I have bought a couple belt blanks from Tandy. One was pre tooled, and the other a straight blank. I dyed one of the blanks, and when I thought I didn't like the colour I washed the blank in my...

You'll want to leave a gap above your window to allow for settling of the logs as they dry.
As for chinking, I had a cousin build a cabin (from old telephone poles: he retired from the local phone...

Tatume, try a tobacconist shop. They might have them. Or Cabellas, is where I found a package. Came in a little pill bottle sized container with sandpaper on either end.

I too wear a fair bit of army surplus. Actually had a buddy give me his wool lined parka and bib front lined pants (he claims they "shrunk"). He used to wear them when in a Canadian tank or APC. Hard...

I worked in a machine shop/welding shop for a few years. Hated the CNC machines. Was too boring to work in that department. I preferred welding and fab work. Had one idiot that wasn't smart enough to...

I did a chamber pound cast for my Browning model 71 and sent it off to Veral Smith of LBT. My mold casts at 210 grains, and I'm happy with it.
Do a chamber cast and see exactly what you can get...

There used to be 12 bore rifles in the olden days. Read about them in the Double Gun Journal. Fully rifled SXS. I figure that so long as your gun is marked .410 Shotgun you should be good to go.

Was at a gunshow a year or two ago and ran across a guy who said he had a stock duplicator, and that he was from somewhere in Saskatchewan.
For the life of me I can't remember the guys name, or...

If the hubs were hot, it sounds like the bearings needed repacking, or the brakes might have been dragging a bit.
I'm leaning towards the bearings needing attention, because in my experience...

I did the bolt on my Swedish Mauser several years ago, and I didn't use an indexing head. I just used a machinist vice with an X-Y axis for laying out the spacing. It was simple to do, and the swirls...
