I put in a new kitchen sink a couple years ago, bought all the plastic drain parts at Lowe's. I had leaks and drips that I couldn't stop, seemed the tighter it got the more it leaked. I sat around...

I have several dial calipers laying around. A Harbor Freight is laying on my bench. I don't leave my good set laying around. Guess I was lucky, when checked against a Starrett caliper and 1"...

I have a .310 mold but have not used it in a 410. As already said they will not stack right. You can't hurt anything by trying it. Maybe pour a harder mix and put them in a shot cup with some kind of...

I'll Tell you what else stinks about a buzzard..

Several years ago I came around a sharp curve and ran up on several buzzards dinning on a flat possum pie. The buzzards took off and I actually had...

I did just that on a 357 that had only 38's fired in it. It would not even chamber a 357. Soaked it in Hoppe's overnight and spun a 40 cal brass brush in the chambers, works like a charm.

Shot cups are too loose in the 444 case, if you use them you will need a cardboard wad and maybe a felt wad to help seal the gas. I just prime and use 12-13 grains of 2400 or H110 a couple cardboard...

I had to peen the rims out on a few 444 cases for my H&R Pardner, they fell under the extractor. I drilled a hole in a piece of 1/4 in. steel to fit the body and peened out the rim. Only had a dozen...

I worked in a furniture machine room for 45 years. I have seen and helped clean up messes. A finger is bad enough but I have seen a couple guy's loose an eye. Except under extreme circumstances it is...

Shot is $50 a bag, you have been given 20# of shot. Thank the guy load it up and have fun and be happy.:razz:

Good to see it has the mag. An acquaintance bought a Marlin a made Ranger a while back that was missing the mag. He thought he got a real deal till he priced a mag at the gun show. It took a Model 80...

I have a Hi-Standard Sport King 22 auto rifle, a nice one, two Sears and one J C Higgins. I find them accurate and as reliable as any other 22 auto. I did have trouble with one extracting properly. I...

When I was squirrel hunting I liked to use shorts but both rifles I had would shoot several shots accurately and then throw a shot. I assume because of the chamber jump. I looked high and low for a...

Before, after or both, depending. I usually put on the gas check first because some shanks are too large after PCing. A lot of this is not chiseled in stone, just figure out what works for what you...

I can't help you on how to render it but my Father rendered tallow from a beef we slaughtered in the 1970's. I have a couple pints that is still good, only a little oxidized on the surface. He...

For years I picked up rolls of solder at yard sales and flea markets for almost nothing. Probably have 15-20 lbs of 50-50. Lately even those places have gone up but keep your eye out. I picked up...

As stated engraving is fine but how hard does the lever close. Could to much force damage the lever system. I like my levers to run free. Just something to consider.

I can use PC to increase the diameter of a bullet. When I have to leave ammo in a car, mostly handgun ammo, there is no chance of lube melting and running into the powder. I have two molds that look...

I used 284 Win, as stated above it works well. Grafs was available and I had some but did it just because. Should have kept the 284 as it is now hard to find. I sold my last bag to my vet, glad to...

I have had good results with IMR 4064, AA 2460 and RL 15 with jacketed bullets, mostly 150 grns. Most any powder in that range will work. In my opinion 4350 is on the slow side for the 303,...

I have several Dad stories, was pretty much a character, especially before WW2. Here is another.

There a park in Alexander Co ,NC called Rocky Face Mountain Recreational Area. It has hiking...

I have been reloading for 53 years, the 410 is the most aggravating thing I have ever messed with. I still like tinkering around with the pesky little thing. If you are already bald headed it will...

Speaking of a pile brass, my first wife's father was in the Ozark Division in WW2. He rarely spoke of any of his experiences. He was a great guy and we became very close. I would help him put up...

I have one with the 26 inch ridged rod. I also bought a set of different size mirrors for $20. Plugs right into my laptop. You can buy it with mirrors for $10 more, worth it in my opinion. Maybe not...

My Dad owned several Harley motor cycles before WW2, a 1927, 1928 and a '36 Knuck. He bought the Knuck almost new, traded the '28 and gave $350. They allowed $25 for the '28. Too give a perspective...

MOCO31, back when they were plentiful a local gun shop found a case of new long branch rifles,
he thought of me then forgot to call. I ended up with and still have a beautiful 1950 LB, has a...
