    Howdy folks, I have a Glenfield model 60. It about 28-30 yrs old. Was given to me as a Christmas gift about 1981. It has been a great little gun. Still is. It just jams a lot. It still shoots cci mini mags however. Yesterday I shot 100 rds. No jams. As quickly as I started with the bulk stuff...

    Lingering granules of media?

    I sometimes tumble brass that I am worried about. Damp media or polish not mixed well, just stuff like that. When this happens to me I will take the really cheap Qtips and just do a couple of quick swabs in each case. I have never really gotten that much out except for once. I had left my...

But I don't remember seeing ANY advertisements for firearms except where one would expect to see them. Hunting and shooting magazines and the like. One...

    257+p Roberts Hoax?

    A few days ago I posted a question about whether to shoot 257+p in my 722 Remington. Everything should be fine was the general response. Dugout my reloading manuals, some old, some a little more modern. I just don't get it. Loads from the Hornady 3 are hotter than the Hornady 4. The Hornady 4...

    Very strange .44 magnum load result

    Even if you can push them back you can still shoot them. As long as you load them one at a time. I am assuming you are using a revolver. I would be afraid to try to cycle them through a lever action.

    296/110 is all I have used so can't say anything about the others. But both of these work wonders in my 44mag trapper.

    Should we be worried?

    It never ceases to amaze me at how many idiots there really are. How much cleaning could he have been doing with the slide and barrel on the pistol and the magazine in the well?
