I somehow traded into a Savage 23B 25/20. The best part (I didn’t realize at the time) was the two 50 round boxes of recent manufacture Winchester silver box ammo that came with it. Then... a friend...

Well you don’t want a 35, but a 223 would probably clean up to make a nice 357 MAXimum. Then you could also shoot up any 38 Spl & 357 Magnum ammo that we all seem to accumulate, as well as 357...

Ruger No.1S in 358 Win, 444 Marlin, 25-35 Win, 357 Rem MAXimum. Also same in 22” barrel full length stock RSI version.

WHAT?!..... describe what you saw a little more please.

Well the Ruger No.1 was acquired with dies and brass included at a price that I just could not pass up. Factory ammo was on sale so 40 rounds were purchased in case an opportunity to shoot came along...

I enjoyed loading 7.63x39 for a couple rifles, one a Chinese SKS. It was surprisingly accurate, getting right at 1 moa. When loading expensive brass such as Lapua I would remove the op/gas rod and...

Picking mine up tomorrow. My RAR in 300BO will go out for adoption and this 358 will do almost everything the BO would have done. I want to hear from anyone that suppresses their 358.

Years ago.... I took a half dozen 22 rifles to a friend’s range and enjoyed unhurried bench testing them with the SSS ammo. Most rifles had 1:16 twist. Each rifle was shot at 50 yards off benchrest....

250 Savage and 358 Win. Own both as well as several higher powered rounds, but these are favorites that most pass by.

Good fantasy. I still Hunt deer as often as possible, but for 10 years have only bow hunted a few miles from my house in my ‘archery only’ county. Previously I hunted a LOT with firearms as well but...

Wiping the dust off this post..... because a No.1 in 9.3x74 is available for a good price near me. Any of you still enjoying your 9.3x74 Rifles? Looks like I just might....!

Looks like cast .358 bullets might work easily for PP’ing to 9.3... (.366”). Anyone taking this easy route with any success?
Looking at possibly aquiring a Ruger No.1 in 9.3x74R and this might be...

I have had about 20 Ruger No.1 rifles in last three years. Have not shot a one yet. Going to change that very soon, most likely with this 475!

Sold the extra nice wood 475 No.1. However I refilled the empty slot with another No.1 in 475 Linebaugh just yesterday. This one is a 20” version with plainish walnut and I will SHOOT it!
I can...

I have a 23B 25-20 Win. It came with two full boxes of Winchester silver box ammo. I researched and discovered that at the prices of 25-20 ammo, what I actually had purchased was the AMMO, with a...

Speer 250 gr. SWC swaged lead. It's about a .451-.452" bullet meant for the 45 Colt. Patch it up to .458-.460". Have fun.

Hey! I've got one of those! It's very accurate with Winchester factory 25-20 ammo, and I have a set of dies, too. I have bullet components, but I also have 25 cal air rifle pellets left over from a...

Don't forget about these easy to pp ready made 0.452" bullets! (first three from left in picture).
Expanded bullet in picture went through a nice buck and was recovered in front leg after full body...

IMO the extra $30 one can pay the blank / barrel maker to contour it is well worth the cost. Buy it in the contour you want and then just have the surface finish you want to do on your own lathe....

".....he apparently had his finger on the trigger." (Regardless of all that led up to the shot...... this is a no-no.)
I and many of my friends have 'proved' (discharged a firearm) this before, with...

I would cut it to 22" or 24", or leave it longer for muzzle blast reduction when hunting. My Ruger 77R .358 was 22" which is plenty long enough for the round.

[3 bullets on left] --- 45/70 Handi Rifle. Commercial Speer swaged 45 Colt 250 gr. bullet patched up to about (?) 0.460". Angling away shot into right rear of rib cage, traveled across chest through...

Well I JUST got my Ruger #1 S in 35 Whelen. My favorite 35 round has been the 358 Win but since looking at a 35 Whelen round I noticed it has a longer neck than the 358 Win so it may be a touch...

That makes sense! Never thought about the space where the GC usually goes giving the flame/powder granules a chance to destroy the paper tail before the bullet can 'upset' in the bore.

Are there better smokeless powders for 'snappy' loads that at least come closer to 'bumping up' a soft PP bullet?
Loading for a 45/70, I have soft cast 320-325 grain FP bullet meant for 454 I...
