What Wolfdog said! It's not that hard. Just like any other caliber, prep the brass, open the neck enough that it doesn't swage the boolit, and use good lube/good powdercoat. Also choose a propellant...

748 will reliably operate the AR gas system with 16 grains in my pistol, carbine, and mid length systems. 20-22 grains is where the best accuracy is so far for me.

I use CitriStrip for stripping wood. It's nontoxic and works wonders.
Forum: Rimfire Area
Get a Wheeler Fat Wrench in inch pounds of torque. You can actually test how different torque values can affect the accuracy of your rifle. With wood, try to stay at 30 inch pounds max. More can...

I think Kentucky Ballistics is a fun YouTube channel. Sure, he's a bit over the top, but he does show ballistic info in real time, uses shooting gelatin, and other things, and has fun. Some of the...

LMC Truck out of Kansas City has all the things for trucks. No idea where they get it but they are dang good and have had the things I need for my 84 Jimmy full size. Rocker panels, door panels, dash...

The answer is a new safe, at least in my book. It did its job, you might be asking it to do more than was designed. New safe is better than rust from an old safe.

20 to 22 grains of Win 748 and an MP 227-75 Nato mold. Powdercoated to traditionally lubed, factory gascheck or home punched. Can consistently tag a 4 inch gong at 150 yards with either an AR or the...

Just installed the ejector in my 788 today. Fits and functions perfectly. Case falls out of the action at my feet. Very happy.
Forum: Cast Boolits
As long as the fit is good, there shouldn’t be issues. Fit is king. Seat the boolit, crimp, then pull it to see if it’s the correct size still. Lubed or coated makes no difference. I’ve shot both...

I say this in all seriousness, make them yourself. I buy them when there's a deal to be had but making them is easy and cost effective with the right equipment.

I was gonna buy a Kahr Arms CW9 that a gun shop got on close out for $275. Went to a Cardinals game tonight and they had a Willie McGee 82 Wolds Series signed bat. I already got dad the signed Bob g...

Charlie, please don't be so quick to judge. Take it apart and give it what it might need. Maybe a cleaning, maybe the ejector is worn. Give it a think.

Battis, where is that 351 at??? Do they have a website with pics?
Forum: Factory Rifles
Batt is and CW, you have goals. Well done. I’m on the hunt for the WSLs as well.

I agree on the Winchester design ethos back then being some of the prettiest produced. I have an 1890, two 94s, a 70, and a 1905. Saw a 62 with deluxe wood on the wall at a Kansas gun shop 2 weeks...

It's a Ruger 10/22 that's been fancied up a bit. All the controls are the same and the rotary mag looks like a twin. I'm not knocking the Ruger, but a lot of things can be done to these rifles with...

I’d throw Henry into the ring as well. Much easier to find, lifetime warranty, and I love mine. Action is smooth, either blued/case hardened/brass receivers, optional HEAVY octagon barrels.

Just wanted to say how nice and easy it was to do business with Wisner's. I was looking for an ejector for a Remington 788 in 3030. Not only was it in stock, they MACHINE the new ejector. The factory...
