    Attn RYAN M "...Planning on buying a Ruger Mk. II/III. Those incorperate a firing pin stop to prevent damage while dry firing (which is good, since the gun must be dry-fired several times to disassemble)." You are mistaken. My primary rule ...is do not introduce live ammo and gun unless...

    :cuss: Lucky 'mericans.... Boo hoo on your nice weather... Was -30C (-22f)here earlier in the week... spent 12 hours a day working outside in the mountains bordering Alberta and BC.

    Which powder trickler do you prefer?

    Yes, if you're doing it by 'hand' then you want the heaviest trickler out there, I know lyman, hornady, and I believe lee and rcbs are all plastic. Redding makes nice stuff. The reason you want it heavy is so that if you 'bump' it, even slighly when approaching the thing, it will drop powder in...

    .40 S&W the bullet of the new millenium

    And another... again no idea who wrote it: “A good archer is not known by his arrows but by his aim” Waaaay to much energy is put into the 9mm/40/45 debate... go and shoot. (btw I have guns in all three calibres... but the only reason I have a 40 is all the free brass I get from the...

    "being left handed should not be a problem unless you go for the thumb rest variety " I disagree.... Ruger's got a set of the Thumbrest style for lefties as well. Not sure they fit the mkiii's. ii's they do.

    Browning HP vs. HP "Practical"

    +1 to 280plus... hate to be a "+1 guy", but I have to chime in here.... there was NO escaping that evil bite from that round 'practical??' hammer. Don't know how practical it is to be bleeding :cuss: all over the range. The 'feel' is wonderful with the rubber wraparound grips... people who hate...
