Just curious, how much does a rebore cost?
Can a 1-48” twist 50 caliber barrel become a 1-66” .54 caliber barrel?

This is the newest Topper action that I have; it is a transfer bar/ striker action. The extension works well under a 1”...

That surplus ammunition is Yugoslav. I shot a bunch of it when it was $5/15 on stripper clips.

I have a Uncle Mikes extension on my 44-40; I’m waiting on a Grovetech extension for my 7-30 Waters.
I’ve found that these work better than the Marlin type of extension. Even with the old Topper...

That’s a lot of money for .270 Winchester ballistics.

Do you prefer long grain rice or the “skeet size” jasmine rice?��
Oh my goodness, Don! I want a $350 K38! What a score!

I went ahead and bought a set of the GruBee 3/4” rings. I didn’t care much for the side mount situation on the 94 Win....

I’m down to 4 Speer capsule rounds so I needed to try the .38 with card wads. They appear to be very capable at ten feet on a paper snake.

If the right deer are all lined up, you can probably fill your tags with one shot…….[emoji106]
JES sure does good work!

By golly it works!
Thanks again for the idea. I’m just using some pine trim for backing-heck, if I keep pushing I’ll...

48 degrees here today! It’s usually twice that warm in April so no complaints at all!

I like those.
Mine are hammer powered.

Just for grins, hold the barreled action upside down and look at the action sidewalls under the rails- especially the ejector side- for burrs.
Getting the cartridge to sit just a bit more to left...

It may be too brittle- here’s one that I’m going to seal with LLA and try out on a paper plate.
I usually use shotgun shell box or .22 shell carton wads but I thought the see through wads were worth...

A fun plinking at cans load for the Krag is a .310” round ball over two grains of most any fast powder( Red Dot, etc.) and any large rifle or large pistol primer you have laying around.

Thanks for the tip.
Coincidentally I’m punching out some wads (card and plastic) for a dozen .38 shotloads from a JBWeld package.
Going to be snakeish around here soon.

I had to fit the new lifter spring a small amount but it looks like it will work now.
It’s raining at the moment so I’m going to wait for the range test.
I want to shoot it from bags with some...

Dixie Gun Works came through.
They look a bit thick compared to the original springs, but we’ll see how it goes.https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20240420/e10705eed563477ff962f29069f28655.jpg

I just annealed and reformed 70 mixed .357 brass to .256 with NO losses.
Thanks, TxCowboy52!

That looks great, especially from that powerful of a load.
Good shooting- tell us about your rifle please.

I will not seat bullets into the rifling for hunting loads.
It’s a bit embarrassing at best to unload the cartridge from the chamber and the bullet stays, the powder dumps into the innards, and the...

Back in the late 1970s I worked on the Eqiptment Moving Crew at Texas Instruments. We used some devices similar to yours(we called them scooters) to move and set up huge mills, lathes, and whatnot....

This little one had plenty to say to me the other morning.
I love the pictures, Recycled bullet. Thanks for sharing!

I use both LLA and PC depending on the use-or my mood. I just shake and bake the PC in an old toaster oven. I like PC for hunting ammo and gas gun use because it is cleaner.
I haven’t noticed any...
