All, Does anyone know which of the .22 rimfire cartridges the Colt New Line pocket revolver took? It can't be the .22LR, since this was introduced several years after this revolver had been in production. .22 long? .22 short? I appreciate the help.

I have just acquired a 1907/15 model Berthier rifle, with a near-mint barrel that slugs at a groove diameter of .3265." I have it all ready to go, with the sling, the bayonet, the en-bloc clips, the dies and the brass. I am generally quite good at finding answers on the 'Net. On this one...

I used to have a Winchester M. 70 in this caliber, and I regret selling it. I would like to buy another rifle in that caliber, but there is precious little available out there. Any suggestions? So far, the Ruger No. 1 is at the top of my list (always my default choice), and I like the M...

I'm thinking of buying the 450-400 Ruger N. 1--anyone has any direct experience with it or heard anything about its functioning, possible quirks, etc? I used to have a N. 1 in 416 Rigby, and it was fine, save for the somewhat so-so trigger-pull. Anyway, just the opportunity to own an...

I own several muzzleloaders, all of which are designed to shoot patched roundball. They are all .54 caliber or larger. Now, I have always been a dyed-in-the-cordite smokeless-rifle hunter. Of late, however, I have been increasingly tempted to take advantage of the extra-season and of the...
