I am compelled to report that I found Diamond K Brass, of Phoenix, to have some of the brass that has been unobtainable for me. I was always too late to even get my name on the wait list when that...

So I need to load some 32-20 revolver cartridges for the first time. I need to do some casting first however, so won't be loading today. I came by some new Starline brass. It is 1.30835 inches...

Here in the 49th state we have 92,000 people on SNAP (food stamps) out of a population that is very likely now less than 700,000. Public schools give 3 meals a day to any student that wants them...

So sorry for being dense, but it looks like you are offering 75 new brass .410 cases for $90 plus $10 shipping? And you have some once-fired .410 brass and plastic cases, of which 2 are brass and...

Thank you for the answers. Your answers are much better explanations than what Shooting Times printed. The current batch of 1,000 or so I am going through rapidly is 3 grns of Win 231 pushing the...

The July 2023 issue of Shooting Times, on Page 8, has a featured, reader submitted warning about "heavier" loads in hollow-based bullets. I shoot a lot of both Lyman and Lee wadcutters, especially...

I may have mentioned this here in the past. When I was 14 years of age I went to the bank and had them give me a money order, in the amount of $47, out of my savings account, in favor of Herter's. ...

I have been attempting to send a message to you saying I would take these 5 dies for $60 delivered, and would send a personal check if I could figure out your mailing address but I can't figure out...

Thanks for the reply from Aberdeen, SD. You're right about maps to some extent. I used to lay out timber up here and a point jutting out into salt water can be as much as 2 miles off on a USGS...

I gave up on GPS about ten years ago after trying 3 or 4 popular hand-held units. I live in the 17 million acre Tongass National Forest, a very small part of Alaska but given that the Tongass is...

I've had a small Yanmar 4WD tractor for about 20 years. It was made for the US market. I bought it at a government sealed bid sale when it had 600 hours, with a trailer for transporting it, for...

I grew up logging. The advice given here is about all you have for options. Be careful. I don't like using wedges to put a tree over if the hinge is still so thick that you might get a split. ...

There was a fellow here that was well known for his split bamboo fly rods but he recently left because of health reasons. He bought engraved silverware at garage sales and incorporated the engraved...

We've now long had constitutional carry in the 49th state, but I continue to renew my permit every 5 years. It used to cost something like $125 to renew but I think the last couple times it was...

If anyone is interested in WWI, I very much recommend reading The Guns of August, which I re-read a couple years ago. I think I first read that book in 1962, or thereabouts, and I do not know how...

Regarding Federal Express shipping; there is no ground shipping to where I live. None. No road. Both UPS and FedEx ship by air or not at all. There is commodity barge shipping; for example,...

BTW, in the latest issue of Handloader one of the writers says that 7MM Rem Mag can be easily sized to .257 Weatherby. If that is true then it would seem likely to me that sizing to .270 Weatherby...

About 5 years ago I picked up 4 boxes of new .270 Weatherby at an estate sale. I paid what the empty boxes might sell for on EBay, so I bought the ammo. My only Weatherby rifles are .257 and .300....

Every time I replace an appliance I am buying something new from China to replace something made in the USA at least 40 years ago. The Chinese stuff sometimes lasts only two or three years, and...

Until this Chinese Covid came along most of my reloading components came from moving sales, estate sales, etc. Over the decades I stopped buying powder if a can had been opened, and the rare times...

Here's an updated story from the Anchorage Daily News. Until recently the story had been so brief that it lacked the basic information people here might like to see. About 40 percent of the...

I really like the state ferries. I never tire of the Inside Passage. However, fares for vehicles have gone up so much that alternatives to bringing your own vehicle must be considered. Few of...

I moved to the 49th state 49 years ago, so I have been a resident of both the states that have no sales tax and no income tax. About 40 years ago my wife and I moved to a small town that sits at...

For myself I would buy a well cared-for used one at an estate sale. When I graduated from high school, something then unprecedented in my line, in 1967, to leave home for good at age 17, my folks...

"Back in `88, I was changing duty stations and was driving my 1966 F100 from CA to WA. with 4:11 gears and the 352 V8 and 4spd tranny, I was hard pressed to do the speed limit."

My first pick-up...
