I have a question an bushing fitting that will fit here. I have an over/undersized bushing I am trying to fit. Using a drill press and custum fit dowel I have been able to fit the bushing to the slide. What is the best way to fit to the barrel. I have a reamer of the proper size but am...

I have used it on my new Savage LRPV. I can't swear that it worked but then again I have seen some one hole groups smaller than .3" c-t-c. I'm still working out load data and battling wind. It does seem to foul a bit less and be a little easier to clean. I did one treatment less than...

I have a Rem 788 with a separated bolt handle. Can anyone recommend a knowledgable 'smith who is familiar with repairing the 788 bolt? The silver just let go, no hot loads, no handloads. The bolt was a little sticky when I chambered a dummy round to check die settings. I pulled the bolt back...

Does anyone know of a GOOD gunsmith who can fix the 788 bolt? I have one that just lost its handle. No hot loads....I never even fired it. I was checking my reloading die set up. The bolt was a little sticky so I gave a tug on the handle and off she popped. A wooden dowel down the barrel...

That is a tough one. For reliability and stopping power a 12ga Remington 870. For versatility and reliability then a 10/22. Ammo is cheap, everywhere and you can carry a lot at one time.

Not sure why he was asking. The laws clearly state that he can only carry if a parent, guardian or instructor is present. As far as how much needs to be shown. I don't have a CCW yet so that when I carry in the field here in Tucson the entire pistol and holster are shown...I have no...

I have an RCBS, Lee Classic and Dillion. I like all three. I will admit that the Lee lacks the refinement that other presses have. Unless you are loading 50BMG the Lee will be fine. (And yes a Redding is on my list to try :) )

I hope he is right as well, however, due to Obama's platform, CHANGE, and in the spirit of showing support for the new prez you may see some of those Democrats that are AHSA vote for the ban. As he said "Gordon Smith who lost on Tuesday voted for the 2004 extension [yet he was NRA endorsed]"...

While it is not a free mfg page I like http://www.loaddata.com/home/members.cfm This site has load data derived from mfg reloading books plus if you have a special request the mag tries to find data on it.

"If I was going to spend that kind of money, I think I would go with a Dillon or a Thumblers." +1 to that. I have used the same Thumblers for 20 years and it still going strong. Quiet too when loaded with enough media

I'm new to AZ so I'm not sure about the state law...I do know that I couldn't. Most of the polling places are on school grounds. No guns allowed withing 500 feet of the school.

The guy is a bozo. Other than a criminal I don't think there is a rational person in the US that doesn't want to see an end to gun violence. As far as common sense laws are concerned, the Brady Campaign and and the gun control lobby have introduced some of the lamest laws around meant to grab...

Elgin Gates lists some loads in his book Metallic SilhouetteShooting (pg 143) PM me if you want a PDF of the page

I always verify the settings at the beginning of each session to make sure the OAL is ok, powder settings are correct etc. During the reload session I visually inspect the powder charge to make sure that it not grossly over or under weight. Every 10 charges or so I will weigh a charge for...

I used to use the rouge until someone pointed out that it is still in the dust that clings to the inside/outside of the case and that it can contribute to die wear. I have fond that using a non ammonia polisher in the media works just as well. Been using Dillion's Rapid Polish..will try...
