Finally had a chance to try some loads out yesterday. I ended up with 70 grains of 2F, 1/8” over powder wad, 1.5 oz. Of mixed 5/6 shot, over the shot card, then an olive oil soaked cushion wad. ...

I’ll take B

I will take #8. PM on the way.

I’m not sure what’s not to like about the 475L and 480? I have two Freedom Arms in 475L. I load them both with 400 grain bullets@1100 fps. I find them way more comfortable to shoot than full tilt...

I’ll take #5. PM on the way.

I will second the RCBS 44-250-K. I am using it in a SBH with excellent results. I PC them and size to .431. My gun has throats in the .4317-.4319 range. Been loading these over 12 grains of HS6...

I fought the shaving lead for years trying to seat and crimp at the same time. It only works well with bullets with huge crimp grooves. I fixed it by going to seating and crimping in separate...

I believe I have a box of 20 of the shorter Hornady brass. PM me your address and I’ll send them to you.

I too have started using more optics on my handguns. I have a Holosun 507 on a 44 Contender that works really well. I also really like the Hex Dragonfly.

I like HS6 in all my large bore hanguns. I have been messing around with a 7.5” Super Blackhawk and it really likes 12 grains of HS6 under a RCBS 44-250-K bullet. Been getting 1” groups @ 25 yards....

Well I finally found time to try a few loads in my SBH this past weekend. To start off, I put a Powers No.5 base pin in it and that eliminated the slight timing issue it had before. Now when I say...

I use a lot of Red Dot also. Have you used it in the BO yet?

Thanks. Hopefully I have time to try some loads with it this weekend.

I have a NOE 170 grain spire point also that I might try. Actually forgot all about it till you mentioned it! Was mainly thinking of using the flat nose to hunt deer with, but that spire point with...

Sent you a PM

I plan on trying the Skychief method. What shot cups are you using?

I got home from work this evening to find that the 300 Blackout barrel I ordered from MGM was waiting for me. Planning on shooting a 170 grain RF out of an N.O.E. Mold I have for my 30-30’s. Anyone...

With iron sighted guns I have always done the Keith method. I just use a beach chair instead of a tree or other object. With a scoped handgun I use a classic sandbag type rest setup.

It is new to me. I haven’t looked up the serial number yet, but it is old enough to have the billboard on the side of the barrel instead of the bottom.

Forgot to mention this is a cylinder bored barrel.

I have a 12 guage New Englander on the way. I’m going to start working on a turkey load when it gets here. Any of you guys want to share your turkey loads?

The only thing that I need to fix so far is the timing on the Pawl is just a touch late. It is so slight that I didn’t even notice it when I bought it. I will probably pull it apart and stretch the...

I checked the alignment yesterday. Put a tight patch on a jag and pushed it down the muzzle and no constriction. It also goes from the barrel into the throats of the cylinder with zero resistance. ...

Picked up a NM Super Blackhawk yesterday. One of the tightest Rugers I have ever handled. .002 cylinder gap and zero end play. Trigger breaks like glass at 3.13#. Can’t wait to see how she does...

Leaving in about 10 minutes to go pick up a 7.5” blued Super Blackhawk! I’m usually a 45 Colt guy, but I haven’t played with a 44 Mag. In years. Looking forward to seeing what she likes!
