M-Tecs is totally correct about the front sight if you’re shooting iron sights. The front sight must be very, very clear. That’s true with young eyes also. Get a set of glasses that allow you to see...

Take it to a shoe repair shop, they have all the equipment and threads to do it right.

It’s remarkably accurate out of all my rimfire handguns and rifles. None of my guns have any problems ejecting the empties. Yes, it’s a bit greasy….like many quality target standard velocity brands...

You can simply use a ratchet extension. You don’t need a special tool

The more it drops the MORE you benefit from a CDS dial. You’re thinking about it the wrong way. A CDS dial and a range finder gives you a lot more distance if you simply know the yardage and have the...
You need to have the chambers squeaky clean….no was residue. Get some ammo that’s oily like RWS,Eley, etc. and try that. Using ammo like Remington, Winchester, etc with wax on the bullet makes this...
If you have an astigmatism, it doesn’t make a lot of difference in being able to shoot a red dot. My astigmatism looks like a “comma”. I just use the bigger part of it for the center/aiming point. It...
Red dots will work very well out past 100 yards for deer hunting purposes. If I were just trying to see how small a group I could shoot I’d use a scope. However, what you need for deer hunting isn’t...

Good answer. Unfortunately, many get on here, and other web sites, and make grossly exaggerated claims. Anonymity and a keyboard aren’t facts.

It truly is “different strokes for different folks”. Sometimes you just run out of fun doing one thing to excess. I spent a lifetime going through different shooting disciplines trying to master...

Don, that is one of the best write-ups I’ve read on airguns. I agree with everything you said about them, and I’m pretty much in the same boat when it comes to “all around” shooting anymore. My days...

I went through the whole smokeless ML process. I had a Savage ML2 and spent three years doing everything in the book to it. I ended up putting an aftermarket Shilen barrel on it from Arrrowhead and...

I’ve moved them with a heavy duty dolly and strap. Some were pretty big and as long as I had room to maneuver I had no problem if I got a couple of guys to help.
FYI, the reason Winchester made this gun in 45-90 was really for black powder shooters. They needed (wanted really) the extra case capacity for shooting black powder. Being much lower pressure than...
Every edition of the Lyman reloading manual lists the Ruger 1 and 3 together and no other firearm is listed with them. A call to Winchester will tell you that these guns should be loaded to the same...
These guns ARE NOT intended for Ruger #1 loads. That info is available if you look for it. I own one of these guns in 45-70 and the 45-90 is not built any stronger than the 45-70 is. In fact, the...

You should have a way to turn it off. Some vehicles have the option to shut it off and it stays off unless you turn it back on. I have it on my Honda Passport and I have to shut it off every time I...

Just a suggestion on your scope choice: the FX 2.5 is a great scope, I’ve got a couple of them. However, for a cartridge like the 350L, 360, or the 357max I believe there is a better option. Take a...

You’ll be absolutely fine with a 1:16 twist regardless what the website says. That’s a fast enough twist for heavy or light bullets. My only comment about this cartridge is that it may go the way of...
I had two Bill Davis guns at one time. One was a Ruger SS .357 and the other was a SW model 27. Both guns would shoot around 1” ten shots full power .357mag loads. I shot a lot of deer with those...

It could be the shoulder isn’t being set back in the sizing die.

Lowered price again. Asking $65 tyd. If no takers I’ll move it somewhere else tomorrow night. Thanks for looking.
Forum: Frequently Asked Questions
You’re asking if you can use .357/38 bullets in a 9mm. I’d think that could be a problem at the pressures in the 350 Legend round. You can run them through a sizing die and size them down to .355 to...
