Just a suggestion which has worked well for me -- in that I tell medics I fish a lot -- true -- and lead sinkers may not be sold/purchased in my state, so I need cast my own -- also true. Further,...

elmacgyver0, you do make a good point re not needing to spend a fortune. I was privileged to be invited to a rabbit hunt a few years back -- mid 1970s -- and reckoned I needed a scope for my...

Admittedly lead paint chips do not contribute to a healthy diet -- I recall a Forensic Files t.v. episode where a toddler --- playing on the porch -- accidentally ingested enough to kill her! Peeling...

I have several scoped .22 rifles, and pretty much my favourite is the old 3-9x Weaver .22 "Classic" Rimfire scope. Note that Weaver had a "rim-fire line", too, which was priced considerably lower...

I have no idea ;) re "How many of you guys..." -- BUT I ALWAYS have brass length as my number 1 priority! Waaaay back -- maybe 40 years ago -- I got my first M1 Carbine and had miss and hit firing...

MY EXPERIENCE: Five or six years ago I bought one of their slingshots (Awesome product!); the next year, when I reckoned I should have/keep another a camp, I bought a second -- as well as some of...

You are, indeed, both a master craftsman and artist! If not presently, I'm SURE you can earn a substantial (2nd?) income from making and selling similar!!! (Put me on your waiting list :)). My only...

"Thanks for getting me 'worried'" re this! :) "They" keep changing the rules/laws -- and my wife and I are both OK for ten more months -- and I still have NO idea HOW to renew. Other than the FACT...

I, too, have/love the 10mm Auto calibre, as a btw :). Germaine to your question, my experience many different brands of brass are -- albeit produced to SAAMI standards -- a tad different --...

A good friend, now :( deceased, had a couple of dozen handguns in several different calibres. Over the years he traded/sold off all except his 1911 .45 and Model 41 S&W .22 for competition --...

Not of the "group" ;) ;) ;) -- but just "me" -- the Savage Striker is , imho, kind of a rare duck -- along with, say, Ithaca's "X-Caliber" handguns. If I recall not that many were produced between...

While your choices (Starrett, Greendield, etc.) are GREAT ones -- my dad -- a tool and die maker -- professed his favourites being tools made by Brown & Sharpe. I have a few -- micrometers,...

Happy vis your upcoming gift! To your question, I have been of the thought that if one adds water -- even with the Dawn and d/w rinse aid -- to dirt -- one would get, at most, sudsy mud. When the...

This post says it all! Its ONLY about money - money - money! A few years back the associate in a True-Value hardware store brought two IDENTICAL, except their painted colour, vices to my attention....

Prayers sent!

I recently purchased a 'scope, not for firearms, but instead for the more noble purpose of my checking cylinders in two older Stihl chainsaws I have -- notably an MS261 Pro which shows compression...

I know I have a few firearm locks, and by coincidental with my looking "where in God's green earth?" I may have put them, I saw TNsailorman had listed three in S&S, just for the cost of postage. ...

Yupper -- I get great success, too, as I had earlier noted, in my .22-250 Striker (Model 516FSAK). "Funny thing" is with the muzzle brake on it is a zillion times louder -- but my groups average a...

"Been there/done that" -- I bought a gorgeous (to my eyes) set of Stag grips from a fellow at club -- but as pretty as they are, they beat up the hand pretty well! I then got a set off eBay;...

Joe -- You piqued my interest! I have a Ruger with grips, perhaps imho "prittyer", but they are not a great fit to my hand :(. The challenge I had getting them -- me probably not being the...

If nothing else, reloading dies, brass, bullet moulds, etc., etc., etc. are fairly readily available for the 10mm Auto; this calibre can easily be loaded to charges more than minimally required for...

Bion, the mould I bought and used for my XP-100 is the Lyman 225-415 -- a 55 grain mould, gas checked , complemented with their #415 top punch. I have a Savage Striker pistol in .22-250 and this...

In Gouverneur, New York -- not too distant from me -- St. Joseph's had a lead mine, and my next door neighbor worked there as a carpenter. That's all I knew/know about the mine, other than he...

Just as an off-the-wall idea -- note word, "idea" -- not a suggestion or anything more, but perhaps I have been watching too many episodes of television series, "Forensic Files"? If you feel you...

Hanging in my garage, adjacent to my casting cart, is a pair of plastic eyewear with a bb-sized melt spot in the dead center of the right lens! Had I not been wearing these, then, the odds are quite...
