I like heavy bullets, BUT, I have grand kids {Girls} that use my 92s. I now load Barnes 225s at around 1200 fps. These run at about 2 to 3" at 100...
I would put that expander ball back in and try it. It should help keep things centered better.
The history of the 1894 is at times rather confusing. Dates bounce around and places do also. But, that "tang safety" sort of gives it away. Many...
When you get time check different brass to see if the mic out the same way. Mil spec brass is thicker and will give a different set of numbers...
+1 for rg1. I also use AA#9. Works.... The 1892 rifles are considered the strongest actions. Marlins and Winchester 94s run just behind the...
The expander ball makes the brass round again. Brass can get bent out of shape pretty easy. It would depend on how many times the case has been...
The Ultra Sonic cleaners really work nice, but most of use do not have one. We use what we have. As I said there are at the very least hundreds...
10/22s are cool. We have several. Check out the little Thomson center single shots too. Easy and accurate. Kids can have a hard time pulling that...
It wont be long and you will be buying more guns. Keep that in mind. A fund set up for that will come in handy later. I have 8 grand kids that are...
Wow! That sounds like a lot of work. And Time. But then I did say there are many ways to do this. I still use the Vinegar, salt and a few drops...
There are hundreds of ways. I use the Vinegar with hot water salt and then baking soda to kill any ugly that happens later. After they dry I...
Since the small primer .45 acp cases started showing up I learned to look at each one before it goes in the press. Stupid happens when trying to...
Ok, I do see that the 4350 seems to be pretty popular. I may try that.
Thanks, I saw that also. I have used 3100 for a long time. 1/2" groups from both rifles and really do not wish to start all over again.
