I'm in jmr40's boat. Here is why. I decided this winter I was going to develop a good 180 gr. Partition load. I started looking around and, while I had plenty of R19, IMR4350, IMR3031, and R15 on hand, I read a lot about R22 giving great velocity and good accuracy. So, I bought a pound and...

You need to realize when you ask a question based on an opinionated answer, by request, you are going to get everyone's opinion. I hear a young man who is proud of his rifle but, not certain he made the right deal. No offense meant or given. Just my observation. It has been said many times...

For what you want, a Ruger SP 101 is going to be hard to beat. Much more affordable than the S&W. I own a couple S&W revolvers. Nice guns but, they aren't a Ruger in my opinion. I own several (3) Rossi 357 Mag.'s. 2, two inch barreled I use for every day carry. 1, four inch barreled I...

Nice! God Bless

If you like it, that is all that matters But, since you asked, I don't like the fact the clips come out of the stock and, there is zero reason for that scope to be floating way up off the gun like that. There is zero chance for getting a solid face weld on the stock. That increase felt...

I have a JM Marlin 1894. I love it. Great gun. It was pre-tang safety. It shoots very well and is built perfectly. We sure lost a truly great gun manufacturer when Marlin was bought by big green. They were great guns. All Marlin lever guns prior to being bought by Remington, were great...

I really liked JMR40's reply. And agree with it wholeheartedly. However, most times when I load for my '06's, I'm stuffing a 165 grain bullets in them. I have found them to just work good. And, I'm no long rang shooter. But, when I have popped off at the longer ranges, I am more accurate...

Sorry for the small pics. It's no Ruger. But, it wasn't meant to be. $300 out the door, 26 ounces makes it heavy enough to not hurt with the 357 mag loads. Built well. Accurate. Easy to conceal. Best gun I've found for my purposes at a great price. I have a hidden hammer one this size too...

Rossi 461. 3rd one I own. Great little guns. For the price they can't be beat. God Bleds

I use a single stage loader for all of my reloading. I'm not a competition shooter but, I demand that my guns shoot very accurately. What I've found out is the difference in .1 grain doesn't affect accuracy. There just isn't a difference in pressure between those loads that makes one hill of...

Pepper spray is as aggressive as physical contact. This is shaping out to be a situation where there are no right answers other than to call and wait for help from the Police, according to the mods. I would never pull a gun to stop the attack or to shoot the offender for that attack. But...

Bogus charges and Bogus arrest. Fine example of why every profession has those that don't represent it well. Whatever the reason, the Officer had no rights under the law to do this. It is a blatant disregard for the law and an abuse of power. We are talking about someones freedom here. Not a...

Rossi 461. Great guns for conceal and are great guns period. I bought one last week. I bought another once I received the first one. I've owned a 462 for a while. It is a GREAT gun. So is it's little brother. God Bless

Nice!

My sister in law has one. It is a really nice gun. She carries it daily. Made no complaints about the shock but, my brother said it was a little harsh. So, it's one of those deals that I don't think she'll shoot it for fun but, she will likely shoot it no problems when she has too. Just...
