Unique in a 357 case over 30+ years ago, great memories
Thanks you answered my next question before I even asked, whether you were using LER or rifle scope. I'm just making a WAG, but I think you'll be around 800 yes before you hit your wall, if you use...
I have not tried a 357 mag. beyond 200yds but seeing the level of accuracy the Frankin Ruger is capable of, my opinion is that wind and optics will be your limiting factor not distance. You have to...

No, I'll tell you what's UN-AMERICAN, who ever owned that rifle before not dragging it in and out of a truck, not lowering it out of a tree stand on a rope beating it against the tree, and not...

Sometimes taking the bullet a little deeper will help, you don't want to change direction (no pressure on the bullet base/ plunger) while the base is lined up with a hole.

I like to try keeping the bullet as high as I can and still getting lube in the groove, I also like to use a firm stroke down, pause, tap the ratchet if necessary while maintaining down pressure,...

Dean, I know you are tired of hearing it, but don't give up. You may be getting frustrated, but the rest of us are getting a good education 😉. You are doing everything right, you just haven't found...

I prefer to use a powered screwdriver, slower speed than drill or dremal, with a hex head screw and a nut driver bit to reduce the risk of gouges. 5 to 10 minutes should be all it takes, but I only...

Very well said, wish I could be so gracious when I see people do stupid things, no slight intended. It's just that the older I get the less tolerance I have for Ignorance.

Yes Dan I do agree with you somewhat, if I see a black snake cross the road, I won't chase it down an kill it, but one across my door step might be a different story. I know he won't hurt me, but...

You have your opinion, other people have theirs, doesn't make either one of you right or wrong. Some people don't go to Dr.s when snake bit what makes you think they would take their dogs. Some dogs...

When I'm in the woods (500 yds from the house) I let snakes be, I'm at there house. But at my house I don't try and relocate them. There has been a lot of snake bites this year, either snakes are...

Steve817, Sorry but I had to laugh out loud and I am all by myself, but I can relate, I was with a friend when we came upon a 6' rattlesnake in his cattle pen, one lucky shot from a Ruger 44 mag....

That's going back a few years or you found a great sale. I was paying 13.50 before there was a Hazmat Fee, and that's been about 25 years ago. Wouldn't want to double your money would ya? ;-)
