Is that a cast lower? or did you refinish it?

Thanks for all the reply’s. I was loading the 165 Gamekings over 57.0, 57.5, and 58.0grs of H4350 and seating to what the manual printed for the COL. Nearly everyone I talk to says this load “should” shoot. Every thing was shot at 100yds, maybe I will give 200yds a try with the same load and...

"are the bullets flatbased or boattail? if different, make em the same. if the same try a different powder. reloader 15 and 165 grain boattails works for me. not real fast, but real tight." The coreloks are flatbase and the Sierra GKs are boattail. That is somthing to think about...

The last two years my hunting load has been a 150gr Corelok over 49gr IMR4064. It got the job done and I was happy with the .75” groups. This year I am looking to extend my range to 400yds so I changed bullets to 165gr Sierra Game kings and H4350. The best I could get was 1.5” groups at...

Thanks Greyling, That is just what I was looking for. Its a Vari-x2 so I was compairing it with vx2 and it seamed like a good deal, but compairing it with vxI its not that great after all. I would like to buy a USA built scope...that just how I am...so I will keep shoping. Thanks for the...

I’m shopping for a new scope for my Rem 700 in 30/06. It’s my deer hunting rifle. I’m looking at a used Leupold Vari-X 3-9 X 40. The scope is cosmetically in rough shape but is bright and clear. They are asking $200 but would probably come down a little. My main questions are 1) Will I...

1) I really do think most people only post when they have a problems. 2) I have a bout 7k through my 9c and its still my carry gun. I shoot mostly lead reloads but have fed it just about everything and it eats it all from what I have found. There were some problems early out but I think...

Here is discussion of relevant cases. I have not done any investigating to the accuracy but its more than you normally get from this question. http://www.thehighroad.org/showpost.php?p=2129976&postcount=140

My procedure is to shoot a few hundred rounds of factory FMJ until it runs smoothly for 2-300 rounds and then load 100 rounds with the same bullet that my factory carry load will use and shoot those. If they run 100% I then buy a 50rnd box of factory carry ammunition and shoot three mags (CA)...

In CA we have a law on the book for Brandishing a firearm and is a misdemeanor offence. Upon first glance it does not appear that printing would be brandishing but my CCW instructor told me that if the person can tell you have a gun you have “exhibited” your firearm. Then if they feel...

. Might not break any laws but might brake your back. My last bullet order was over 200lbs.

That’s 6-10hrs is this the norm? I currently use a rotary tumbler and wash my cases with just water and maybe a little detergent for a bout 30min and they are clean. Definitely not as bright as new but perfectly functional.

You would send you 15yr old son out with your .357 alone?

We must be almost neighbors up here in real Northern Ca. Search here for discussions on wilderness guns but, at your age think about a fixed blade knife. No one would think twice about a 15yr old carring that in Lewiston. As a forester I spend a ton of time out in the woods and am not as...

The M&P compact is my current carry gun. When I first got my permit (CA) I was very conscientious of the with of the slide as I’m a smaller thinner guy but soon found that it was truly concealed and invisible behind my cover garment. The real factors in concealing any gun is carry location...
