Congratulations on the new Mauser...

I have installed a Huber 2-stage Match trigger to my byf Mauser, and I'm headed to the range tomorrow to see what group size improvement I get with the much improved trigger pull.

I have a S&K scout mount with a Leupold FX-II 2.5x28 scout scope on my '41 byf RC K98 Mauser, which gets me 1 1/2" groups at 100yds with Prvi Partizan 196gr sniper ammo, and I have Mojo sights on my...
Yes, this is where I'd go, but this first year model that I just picked off of GB is only in .38 Special:

I would use this load for hunting white tail. I am not looking to find a max load, just an accurate one.
Forum: Cast Boolits
Unique only because I found 8#s of it locally, and it make a nice medium load for my 44. Varget for my 308 but it is easier to shoot pistols with so much snow on the ground.

I don't have a mold for these, but I'd like to try them in my new to me Ruger Redhawk. I just bought 100 from an auction on GB http://www.gunbroker.com/Auction/ViewItem.aspx?Item=391038987 . Does...

I have Mojo sights on my 1912 Steyr Chilean 7.62x51 Mauser, and it shoots great. I used a S&K mount on my byf '41 RC Mauser and a Leupold 2.5x28 scout scope, and did this with some Yugo M75 196gr...

I bought a CMP field grade Garand and re-barrelled it with a Criterion .308 barrel right away. I did replace the gas tube with one of the Garand Guy's hard chromed plated and rebored tubes, but...
I just got a Lee factory crimp die to use when I load .44 mag. It crimps and resizes as a last step in the process. You really want a roll crimp with your 44 mag. Light loads only need a light roll...
Ideally, the same loads don't work for both. You can shoot anything that you want out of your guns, but your accuracy will suffer in one if not both. You will have to make load concessions to get a...
I love my two H&K P7 PSPs, they are the most accurate autos that I own..

I find the thought of pairing a rifle and a pistol doesn't make a whole lot of sense except for the fact that you can use the same brass and reloading dies. You will have to have different loads for...
I've been paying attention to Starline lately and picked up 1000 .357 mags and 500 .44 mags. They usually sell out their runs pretty quickly, but I was lucky to find both, .357s in November and the...

OK, I got a hot plate and my cast are coming out completely filled, but I have changed something about how I am casting which I don't understand. My first time, all my casts we nice smooth and shiny,...

I have WaA655 on my byf also. Must have been early 41'.

Here are three targets shot at 100yds with Prvi Partizan M75 FMJBT 196gr sniper ammo today from a bench rest. I took apart my Mauser yesterday and applied the technique outlined in the tutorial. I am...

I found a nice tutorial on how to get greater accuracy from an old Mauser. I applied the technique and I'll see the results tomorrow at the range.

I have a son who will get a lot of guns if he plays his cards right. I won't deny my daughter her share either, if she is interested. My biggest concern is just raising my two kids up to be adults...

If I had to make a guess, I'd say that my mold was not hot enough. I'll get a hotplate to pre-heat with; any suggestions of what kind works best?

Forum: Cast Boolits
Casting with a new Miha 434-256... my casts looked pretty good except the very top of the cast's edge under the sprue was rounded, not a nice sharp edge. Was I not casting hot enough?
Forum: Military Rifles
Since I am not up and rolling on the rifle gas check boolit production yet, I just wanted to shoot some ammo known to be consistantly accurate which is why I bought 90 rounds of the PP sniper ammo.
I have two H&K P7 PSPs and two H&K USPs, one USPc .45 and one USP Tactical .45.
Forum: Military Rifles
I just got a new Leupold 2.5x28mm FX-II scout scope and installed it. It definitely feels much better veiwing through it than the 4x M8 pistol scope did. Now it's to the range to see what it can do!...
