What is the caliber of the 94 TD and the 2 95's? I love to go shoot my old stuff too, it tends to ground me a bit from being spoiled with modern stuff.

You can get hand rubbed oil to shine as much as poly, the only difference is it won't have the plastic look. Nitrocellulose lacquer also won't have the plastic look but NCL never truly cures either....

86's and 92's also have those, some are more prevalent than others, those are forging marks from the metal folding over onto itself.

As to having just a cased lever and hammer and blued frames,...

Sectional density and the animal make a huge difference. I've always said "speed kills" and the hydrostatic shock that some bullets make when traveling at super sonic speeds (sometimes 3x or more...

I'd like to do it, just for fun, something I am in need of having. I have a 94 in 38-55 and a new 94AE in 444Marlin, 95 in 38-72 and an 86 in 40-82, all 3 might be options.

I might be game, does a wheelchair count as sitting, lol. I have quite a few calibers to choose from as well, just not sure if I can get to the range anytime soon though. What are the rules? IE how...

That looks new enough that it's a coil spring set up instead of the older flat spring. I have only done anything with flat springs, and the lever should not be loose or hang down any amount, it...

You are asking for nothing but problems converting that 348 to 50 caliber. Loading, feeding, magazine tube coming loose from shooting unless you put a barrel band around it. I'm assuming you mean...

I had no idea Grafs sold brass under their name, I have bought some odd ball stuff from them and it was Bertram, which in my opinion is horrible.

I have an original Winchester 1894 in 38-55, and love it. I am using the Ideal mold 375296 it cast at about 275 gr and is gas checked. I have always wanted to try the 38-55 express bullet 37577...

You don't need an FFL to ship to an FFL for a sale, no matter when it was made. If it was made pre-1899 then you don't have to even ship to an FFL, you can ship directly to the buyer bypassing the...

It took me quite a while to find a 38-72 that was what I wanted, I really enjoy shooting mine, I'm using an Ideal mold and it loves it.

You can always contact the Cody firearms museum and give them serial numbers and they'll be able to tell you what it came with and if it was sent back to be re-barreled. This page here is an...

I was doing it as well a long time ago from military 7.62 brass because it was cheap and I couldn't get 6.5CM brass. I wrote up an article on Google Docs showing how to do it step by step, if you...

From my "secret" stash of information, this is from the Small-Caliber Ammunition Identification Guide by the Defense Intelligence Agency. If I could work my mouse better the highlighting would be...

That looks like one I have, copper washed, aluminum. I have one in my junk pile as well, will have to look at it and get back with pics and info.

You shouldn't have trouble necking it down in your FL die, I've found that I usually only get in trouble when I'm necking down to something fairly small say 17,20,22 and going in big steps. You...

I am using a set of CH4D dies in 22WCF and casting with an original Winchester 22WCF mold. It cast at right 45gr and is a .228 as cast, my low wall slugs .228 and it works well. It has 4 grooves in...

That 200gr FP might be just what my Model 8 wants. I love shooting that rifle but hate the 220gr jacketed bullets.

It's not an aversion to them for me, it's just that I could buy a Dillion 650XL for what I'd have to pay in bushing for all of my dies. I can unscrew for how much I'd spend in bushings.

I've seen one done on youtube and it looked fairly simple. He used a large straight screwdriver and a hammer and I thought it wasn't going to budge, it finally came loose and then it just threaded...

That is exactly what I'm using to load on, the red stuff, I also have a brand new M beam scale sitting in a drawer. You have some good stuff there.

Yeah the brass seems very soft, I finished up the LC --> 6.5CM late last night, it turned out beautiful. The converted brass holds 3gr on average less than the Hornady. I will reduce my loads by...

I decided that I could make some 6.5CM brass from very readily available LC 7.62 brass. I bought some once fired Hornady 6.5CM brass and am very disappointed in it, from my searches my issues seem...

I paid $23 for 5#'s and just ran mine about half an hour with some concentrated Gain brand dish soap. It cleaned out my red rouge from the Model B tumbler and pins where shiny. I ran some 45ACP for...
