    My Winchester Model 43 is Back in Action! (218 Bee)

    I don't know what happened to my other post but here is the new post. After trying to dislodge the remnants of the brass I chased down a great gunsmith who removed the brass in the chamber. The gunsmith also noticed that my reloads were a little hot (the fired primers were pushing a bit out of...

    I Think I Broke my Winchester 43

    My wife presented to me a 25 pass to the local gun range last Sunday so I wanted to load up so a run of 218Bee and a short run of some 308s. I also brought plenty of .22s and 223s for the AR. When I got to the range I pulled out the Winchester 43 and box of reloads and got a spot on the rifle...

    Question on Some Bullets

    I had to pick up some tools this morning and since I was near a gunshow I went over to see what was there. I ran into a vendor that I've bought stuff from before so today I bought a bag of .308 bullets without checking them. When I got home here is what I found...

    Took The Model 43 to the Range (218 Bee)

    I went to the range today with the Model 43 to see how the 218 Bee would do today on factory ammo.

The first item replaced was a magazine. I found one in North Dakota (I think) from a very nice woman who sold me the last magazine that...

    Question on the Florida Parking Lot Law

    This came up tonight during a discussion on the Florida parking lot law. We normally target shoot at Knights Trail range which has a sign at the entrance that states no concealed weapons are allowed on the property. This seems to be in conflict with the parking lot law which I think would trump...

    Para Ordance Magazine Problems

    I bought a what was supposed to be pair of Para magazines on Gunbroker a while back (like a year) and I just got back from the range today. The magazines are not .45 ACP magazines but seem to be .40 as far as I can tell by a fit check. There are no markings on the magazines. Can anyone determine...

    Trouble With Decap Dies

    I ordered two RCBS decap dies and one of the dies showed up but the other was over a month away so I cancelled the order and ordered the other one from another shop. The second die showed up but it was in a .22 - 25 cal box. That was strange since I already had that caliber. I checked the...
