I am big fan of the S&Ws, but their new shrouded barrels are a big turnoff for me. So I would recommend one of the older ones.

A couple years ago I purchased a Number K6S DASA which I really...

Unfortunately zinc is also toxic if ingested by waterfowl so it cannot be used where the regs require non-toxic shot.

IMO, I would go with the nitride barrel for two reasons. The first reason is it makes the underlying stainless steel more corrosion resistant. The second and more important reason it that it makes...

"I also put left over charcoal and ash in my garden to help the soil."

Not sure if this info applies to the above statement because I don't know what type of garden is being referred to.

PSA,...

Sometime ago, I read the reminiscences of an old time soldier who said that when on the ranges, they would set upside down helmets along the firing lines containing sun-softened Cosmoline. They...

Marlin 39 Golden Mountie. Bought used in '74, still have it. Need to scope it now LOL.

The most important thing one can do is vote for people who are less likely to create or allow a SHTF situation. Research and make good choices in the primary elections!

Learn from history. ...

And here I thought my 25,### serial number Garand was special even though it has been reparkerized. LOL

Mind are all in .30-06. But I would really like one in 7mm-08. Saw on decades ago at the LGS with a heavy Krieger barrel. Went back a few days later but it was gone. :groner:

A CZ or a Tikka. 10-22 triggers are just too crunchy for me to enjoy. Even with aftermarket parts tuning.

Unfortunately. I think we all will be facing new/higher pricing "normals".

OK. This thread is very educational and perfect timing! I would really like some advice on how to deal with the following situation.

Just bought my first Uberti. It is a Colt 1862 Police. ...

I have a 7mm 1893 Mauser stamped "OVS" which are the initials for the Boer's Orange Free State (in Dutch).
That will be a retirement project someday to get it shooting with cast boolits.

Very cool!

To quote from I.J. and the Last Crusade "You chose wisely!" ��

Great information!
Thank you guys!!!

Wow!!! I totally agree with bedbugbilly. A wonderful heirloom!

Just picked up a 7.7 Arisaka rifle in very nice shape. Really nice looking chrome-lined bore. Would love to try PC'd cast boolits in it. Does anybody have any mold / boolit / load commendations?...

Sweet!

Thank you for that clarification! I really like my old school Smiths, but I had concerns about this new rifling method. The M-69 has been on my wish list since it was first became available.

Early 4" 686 Plus!

My current concealed carry is a SIG P365XL. So slim, great trigger, and very accurate! Love the capacity - 10, 12 or 15!
Before that a couple of KAHRs in .40 S&W. I
Before those a S&W M-66 4"...

Thank you guys!

I liked the M did idea, but I think I'll try the NOE expander plugs first. Might be a more flexible option.

I'm trying to reload new .444 Marlin cases with jacketed bullets. I run the cases up into my expander die high enough to get plenty of belling for the bullets to fit. But when I seat the bullets,...

I've been shooting the .17 HMR since it was released. IMO it is the best of all the rimfires in terms of accuracy and as a critter-gitter. Buy a CZ and a good .17 cal cleaning rod. (Regular...
