My first levergun was my first centerfire.....a mid-70s Marlin 336 in .35 Remington. My father bought it new, at Walmart,
for about $80. I have killed a truck load of deer with that gun.

I have two JM Marlins from the mid 70s. A 30/30 and a .35 Remington. I love them both. I don't think one is significantly "better"
at killing deer than the other. Me and the .35 have been together...

Great information guys! I REALLY appreciate it!

Thanks in advance for and advice!

I am a seasoned reloader of rifle and pistol cartridges. Never have tried my hand at shotsells.
I bought my son a .410 over/under for Christmas and bought myself...

PM sent

I'll take lot number 3. PM on the way

Great advice folks. I very much appreciate it! Derek

Thanks for the info. The holes are on the right side of the receiver and the stock has been filed to allow clearance.
I would post a pic but I am no good at that. haha

Hello to all. I have a model 94 Swedish Mauser that has been drilled and tapped for a receiver sight.
The spacing is 5/8 inch. The rearward most hole is a larger diameter than the forward most hole....

Thanks so much Larry! Derek

Hi guys. Can anyone tell me if the receiver sight for a 98 Mauser will also fit a Swede? I'm looking for one
for a Swede and I can't seem to find one specifically for that model. Thanks in advance!...

I have shot a lot of them through my Springfield 1911. Off the top of my head I think it was in front of 5.5 grains of Unique.
I really like that bullet in an ACP.

Several years ago I got my then 10 year old son a Rossi "Matched Pair" youth model in .22 LR/.410. The factory sights aren't the best, but that little gun will shoot. He squirrel hunts with the .410...

I use it in .38 Special, .357 magnum, .45 ACP and .45 Colt. It meters great in my Dillon 550 and all I do is adjust the powder die as needed. I also use it in low velocity cast rifle.

Mine is a great shooter with the ACP cylinder. Lee 200 grain RNFP and Unique. My 1911 loves the same load.

I replaced the factory grips on my Rodeo with some Hogue Ivory Micarta made for the Colt SAA. Because Colt grip-frames vary so widely they make the grips oversize. It took a long time to grind the...

I have shot some 115 grain FP sized .311 in my Winchester with 7 grains of Unique with decent results. I bought some bullets sized .312 for the 32-20 and ran them through a .311 Lee sizer. I then...

Thanks for the pics. I might have to get some spare parts to play with!

What was it you did not like about that cock on opening conversion?

Derek

I have had success with the Lee 200 grain RNFP. I load 'em in my .45 Colts and my .45 ACP. For the ACP I crimp above the actual crimp groove. Feed and shoot great in my two 1911s.

Have you ever tried the Speed-Lock cock-on-opening conversion that Dayton also sells? They sell a package of the trigger and the Speed Lock for about $70. I had thought of trying it on my Swede...

Mine is very tight also. VERY uniform chambers and a tight cylinder gap. It is my most accurate single-action revolver. I have several Blackhawks, but the Rodeo gets carried in the field more.

I have a Rodeo in .45 Colt that I love. Great shooter. I fit some ivory micarta grips to mine and polished the finish up a bit.


Derek

I have had success with the RCBS 180fn and 30 grains of W748.


Derek

My TC Cherokee in .32 shoots best with 30 grains of FFF. I would start at 15 and see where it hits its sweet spot.
