Reply to 6pt-sika: Looking at Gunbroker this afternoon and there is a CZ550 9.3x62 Manlicher carbine with a Burris scope up for bids. I passed on one several years ago with later regrets. I resolved...

I own 2 CVA Hunter rifles as well as 3 CVA Scout V2 rifles. The Hunters are in 35 Whelen and 45-70. The Scout V2s are in 35 Whelen, 444 Marlin, and 44 Mag. In my opinion these are the best single...

I own a Lone Star RB in 30-40 that I acquired on an impulse buy several years ago. One of the best gun purchase "decisions" I have ever made. I called Dave Higgenbottom the builder for advice on...

I have 2 788's in 30-30 and shoot only cast in them. Reason for 2 of them is that the extractor is reputed to be somewhat fragile and difficult to obtain replacement parts. Also have a 788 in 44 mag...

I came across a quantity of 1f 45ACP brass primed with SP primers. Are there any loading changes using traditional 45 accuracy loads with SP primed loads vs LP primers? The manufacturers seem to be...

A top candidate for past dumb decisions was letting my 141 go. I am a workmanship and accuracy fanatic and this rifle had both. It was capable of near moa groups @100 yds with a Lyman folding tang...

Do any members here have experience in removing the barrel pin on CVA and Traditions singles? The pins are expanded on both ends apparently during barrel installation at manufacture, presumably to...

Read about 308 Win small primer brass uses and limitations on the Starline site. Wondering if that brass would work well in developing cast loads for my Henry single .308W. I am currently using WLR...

I purchased some Norma 35 Whelen brass from Duck Creek a couple of months ago when it was "unobtanium" elsewhere. I was much impressed with the personal interest as well as a decent price and prompt...

Bought a new Tikka T3 8x57 a couple of years ago for about $550. Not exactly a giveaway price but a bargain in today's market. It is consistently accurate, has excellent workmanship, and a pleasingly...

I have 2 CVA .35 Whelen rifles: a Hunter model and a V2 Scout. Both are amazingly accurate with the Saeco #352 263gr GC and 21gr 2400, or 17gr of Unique. I am not too interested in further load...

Prior to "retirement" I had sufficient income to purchase almost any rifle or handgun that caught my eye. From that emerged a gaggle of high quality firearms that I could never afford today. Many...

I generally avoid my club range on weekends. Not that my fellow members are a danger itself but in crowded firing positions there is an eclectic level of expertise ranging from novice to experienced...

Reply to Sukivel #11: The CVA rifles are synthetic stocks only. That probably accounts for a lower purchase price. Like most here, I prefer walnut but synthetics keep the price down with no detriment...

I have 4 CVA rifles: 45-70, 444 Marlin, and two 35 Whelen's. All are superbly accurate, great triggers, top notch workmanship, and all for a very good price. The Hunter model is the lowest price at...

Thank you WG. That is just the info that I was looking for.

I purchased a Browning 1895 repro over 10 years ago. I received a significant discount due to damage to the stocks caused by careless handling as a shelf display. I always thought it would be quite...

I have read all 14 pages of this topic with great interest. I have 2 Henry SS rifles: a 44 mag brass and a 308W steel. I bought a spring from a member but have not yet installed it. The 308 is the...

I have read that there is no problem powder coating conventional lube groove bullets. I am wondering if tumble lubing HTC bullet designs might also succeed. I am reasonably sure that someone on this...

Check out Arsenal molds. Not as huge a selection of options as Accurate molds or Noe but comparable quality at reasonable prices. I have bought several molds from Arsenal in different calibers and am...

I just completed my order using the $1000 club code in the comments section. I hope it works out OK. My experience with Al Nelson in the past has been excellent. If an error has been made by either...

I sent NOE an email this morning concerning the impossibility of combining both discount codes. Thus far there has been no response.I have 3 items in the order basket so I am ready to complete my...

Years ago I found out the "hard way" that there are 2 varieties of WC852: fast and slow burning. The powder I was using is of the slow variety. After some load development I finally found an accurate...

I have two Marlins in 35 Rem: a 336ADL, and a 336C. This summer I treated myself to a Traditions Outfitter G2 35 Rem single as a candidate for cast bullet loads. Guess you could say I like the 35 Rem...

I have two 35 Whelen rifles. A Ruger 77RS and most recently a CVA Hunter. I have loaded the Saeco #352 250gr., and a NEI 358232 238gr. over 20.4gr 2400 with excellent accuracy at 50yd. The 100yd...
