I guess I will have to measure mine since they both feed flawlessly. Later: 1.565" for the 180 gr RF. Mine doesn't work well with the Lyman 358429 either due to the long nose of that SWC

So do I. I use two different boolits in mine and both with different loads are minute-of-popcan at 125 yards. I am using the NOE 180 gr. RF plain base with AA-9 and the Lee 125 gr RF plain base...

I looked Richland Arms up and they went out of business in 1986 so the caps are at least 38 years old. I will likely just use the old Richland caps for targets and save my remaining newer #11's for...

A good friend who is getting out of shooting for health reasons gave me as box of #11 Hot Shot Percussion Caps made in Italy for Richland Arms Company in Michigan. I am, of course, grateful for them...

Thanks John. I will take your advice to heart. If you are wondering, I will be hunting on tide flats with saltwater tolerant grasses making hunting a different experience since the tide range 9-13...

Not necessarily about CB hunting but yesterday I acquired a box full of waterfowl calls for $20. Included were four Olt A-50 goose flutes. We recently have had a lot of Great Basin Canada's take up...

With that boolit at 900 fps, I would think you would have no problem with any black bear under 400# at a range of under 50m. Of course, you would have to hit it properly and even with softer alloy,...

Are those salmon pinks or early coho. Our coho here are just starting to arrived but no pinks until next year. This morning I bicycled up to our local federal hatchery and the coho in the raceway...

I haven't hunted deer with my 30/30 rifle but I do use my 7mm TCU T/C carbine for our local black tail deer. My boolit of choice for hunting is the Lee 135 gr. RFGC at an MV of 1870 fps. It is...

It's a good thing

[smilie=1::coffeecomMaybe I don't understand the question. The venerable 30/30 started out as a CB rifle using black powder. In that context, one might even say the 30/30 has seniority over the...

When I read about lever rifles in 9mm, I had to check it out because I have so enjoyed my T/C carbine in 9mm for both small predator hunting and just plain fun. Both were just too expensive for my...

Since my back yard is bear country, I carry my 45 Blackhawk regularly when bear season opens here in a couple weeks. My load for either the Blackhawk or my Henry is the same with a 265 gr RF-pb, 8...

I have a 357 mag bolt rifle. I use Unique with the Lyman Keith style SWC. It shoots very well at an mv of about 1340 fps. AA-9 and Bullseye also work well at that mv. Assuming your Keith boolit...

Buckshot is legal in Washington State and even encouraged for deer in certain counties in Western Washington (particularly Island and San Juan counties). It's utility is very limited east of the...

The national lumber market nationally is in the tank right now and still falling(went down 2% more yesterday). Hopefully it s worthwhile for you. A lot of the planned clearcuts around here have...

That NOE 180 WFN is my choice for close in hunting. Although not a lever gun, my Ruger M77/357 has shown no sign of leading whatsoever even when that plain base boolit is pushed to 1400 FPS after...

The boolits I am using in the 222 Contender (not 223) are both the original Lee 53 gr "soup can" and the NOE 58 gr flat point. Both my T/C carbine 22 Hornet and the 222 love that old "soup can"...

My Encore 250 Sav has won prizes for both me and my wife at NCBS and my heavy 204 Ruger barrel is deadly accurate out to 600 yards in calm wind. Definitely make sure a fitting forehand comes with it.

There are no issues with the barrel as far as interior scratches, etc. I tried almost every brand of standard and high velocity 22lr's I could find including the types used in Olympic competition...

20+ years ago I purchased a used T/C Contender 10" stainless match barrel in 22lr. To my shock, every brand of 22lr gave me horrible accuracy with groups at 25 yards looking more like a 410 shotgun....

If you are looking for a small sedan with AWD, it is hard to beat the Subaru Crosstrek. My wife has one with 83,000 and it has been all over rough dirt roads in Nevada as well as rough, steep...

If they are aluminum, not much is required. I have a bunch of custom aluminum fishing jig molds for my business from 40+ years ago in my barn never used and they are good as new. For iron boolit...

I used Johnson floor wax to preserve mine from the elements back then which is why mine are in good shape now.

Just so you know, the Martin is a Basque restaurant with Basque style family dinners. Even though I live a rock throw from Washington's prime clam digging, Hood Canal, I once ordered a clam...
