+1 for above. You can double check seating issues by covering a loaded round's bullet with magic marker. Any contact with rifling will show up as scratches in the marker.

It's been twenty years, so my advice is out of date. Back then, it all had to be in factory boxes. Anything else was confiscated. Hope somebody with more useful info chimes in. If it were me,...

Really depends on what you want to shoot at. Punching paper up close, too much lead to waste. Punching paper far away and that weight will serve you well. Hunting at any reasonable distance and...

Thanks, Kenny

Are or can the cross patches be cloth? I never would have thought to use paper. But then, ....... I've lead a sheltered life.

Lots of ways to attack your problem. Ed's Red soak followed by a wire brush. Chore Boy. Steel wool. Lots of elbow grease! Also, firing lapping. I have fire lapped several barrels in...

Any chance of a .22 CB. If you control the impact area, nobody will hear it. I do like the crossbow idea, though.

Love it.

I like a Ranch Dog 235 cast w/ IMR 4198 or 3031.

When I apply scales, I first make the scales to fit, and then "fit" (clap) one side to the frame and drill the rivet holes through just the one scale with a slightly undersized bit. (Allows me to use...

Have used the AMP annealer and it's wonderful, but expensive. More in order with my pension, I have made a metal fixture to fit in my cordless drill that holds the brass (I have several of varying...

Real good to have you back. Always enjoy your comments.

Well, that stinks about the man. I sure would like to see the brand back on the market. Quality side hammers again!

Wow, thumb cocker! What a scare. Sounds like both you & the wife are calm in an emergency situation. Thanks for sharing.

Just a thought; with that twist rate, I'd think the lighter bullet would do better. Those Sierra 200gr'er's would be my choice for the next testing at the range. Good luck.

I have several. Bench mounted has plenty of room on both sides. I also took a 4" cast pipe and welded it to a car wheel, filled the base with concrete and welded a flat on the center top to...

I've bobbed several H&R hammers. Mostly, nobody notices. Also, I've drilled in from the side of the hammer and screwed in a hammer spur. The friction mounted ones loosen up once in awhile and...

It's the thru-bolt feature that makes this one a tricky one to address. If the stock never has to come off, then filling it with acru-glas, etc.is fine. Glue it in place and it will work great. If...

! Don't glue it ! Pull the recoil pad off, and while you are at it, you might as well tighten the through bolt to the back of the receiver and insert a felt pad. Doesn't have to be very thicket...

You, sir, are a skilled artisan. Very nicely done.

Have done the .284 conversion and it's pretty good. Rim is close, but functions OK.

I size my PC's in a 450 Lyman. Lube is there and it seems to assist pushing through the sizer. As for shooting, I've done both, with & without, and haven't seen much difference. My barrel is...

A friend's .450 Marlin split with factory ammo. Never figured why. It wasn't very old ammo.

+1 @ Nobade. Welcome to the site.

Tend to agree with all the above. Instead of chemicals to treat the pond, have you ever thought of tossing a bail of barley straw in the pond? I bet that alone will solve your algae issue. (I...
