Has anyone else had difficulties getting onto the Southern Ohio Gun website? Every time I try, I get directed to the "Magneto" site and told to download software that I'm not sure that I even want on my computer. I tried and it wouldn't load anyway. Looks Like S.O.G. has "modernized"...

I have a Mosin question that is somewhat along the lines of this discussion thread. In a moment of weakness last week (wink, wink), I bought a crate of 91/30s from Classic Firearms. The rifles are all in decent shape, no hexes, but 7 Tulas. the rest are Izzys. One of the Tulas has sniper...

1KPerDay - You are probably right about being overly-cautious...but I don't want the nickname "Lefty" or "One Eye" either....(LOL!)

I will probably pass on the Titegroup.... After all the good input that I've received, I agree that Titegroup may be a bit too much powder for someone at my experience level. I will probably shoot the few that I've loaded in my .357 this afternoon and put the rest of the TG on the shelf until...

Many Thanks! Thank you to everyone for their helpful and thoughtful responses. I've read many things about Titegroup, including that it has a narrow range and high pressure spikes. Some folks love it, some hate it. The only consensus I can find about it is that it is position insensitive...

I'm wanting to put together some target loads using 125 grain JHPs and some Titegroup that I have on hand for a .38 special case. Does anyone have good load data or experience with these? I've checked my books and looked around on the forums and I'm seeing a wide range of powder weights.

Hi all, Yesterday, I bought an older Para Ordnance P-16 .40 cal. pistol. It is unfired and came with the original box, manual, and one standard magazine. I paid $450 for it. Did I get a decent deal or did the guy take me for a ride? He was keeping it as a collectable, but is it more...
