    Powder To Hoard

    In the worst possible scenario, assume the Dems/Libs get their way with "Gun Control":banghead: Suggest a powder to stock up on that will work (in a pinch) for .22-250 thru .300 mag. I am thinking Hogdon H414..Your thoughts??

    336W Open Sights Accuracy

    The attached picture shows a 100 yard target that I shot, this A.M. The rifle used was a new, out-of-the-box, Marlin 336W, 30-30 from the Del Rio,Texas Wal-Mart. I used the factory installed sights. The rifle was shooting high and right as received, so I drifted the sight to the left and...

    Drifting Sight on Marlin

    A new Marlin 336W followed me home on Christmas. Test firing (2 rounds) I find it shooting about 3" to the right at 50 yards. I know I need to drift the rear sight to the left; I plan on using a hardwood dowel and a light hammer blow to move the sight. Hazard a guess on how much to move the...

    Winchester Mod. 12 Hevi-Shot

    I have a vintage Winchester Model 12 with FULL choke. I know that it is not wise to shoot steel shot in this older barrel with tight choke. Question: Will I damage the old girl with Hevi-Shot?? I.E. Is it as soft as lead?? Thanx

    Grip or Sight Change?

    Took my newly acquired Sig P6 to the range today. Tried 3 brands of ammo, WWB, Blazer (Brass) and Reminton...all worked flawlessly. My question? Abot 80% of the bullet strikes on target were LEFT of center.:confused: Every round was a hit on a silhoutte target (10 Yards) but preponderance of...

    Pictured is my new (for me) Sig P6 bought from a Gun Broker auction. $400, 1 magazine, no box. This replaces a P6 stolen out of my truck last year. This pistol shows very little holster wear and barrel and ramp look excellent. Dealt with a good dealer, shipping was fast and no problmo with...

    SA Only

    Please help me understand why anyone would own a SA only semi-auto pistol. As I see it, single action is what the old thumb buster Colts had to offer..you had to cock the hammer for every shot. If you don't have to cock the hammer for each shot are you really shooting a "single-action"...

    Sig Choices

    I am about to replace my Sig P6 that was stolen out of my truck by some derelict scumbag. When I bought the P6, they were cheap (around $250) Now they are selling in the $450-500 range on GunBroker. The P225's are also going for about the same money. I see a few P220's offered in the $675-750...

    Black Powder Execution

    I have noticed that animals hit with big, heavy, slow, black powder bullets drop to the ground with authority. This will probably start the debate on velocity (Weatherby) vs mass/energy (Keith). Some (not all) deer run off for a distance when hit with the high velocity bullets...my...

    Barber Pole Bolts

    One of the items that appears on "custom" rifles is a bolt that has been machined/cast with helix grooves on its exterior. Since metal is removed from the bolts exterior, I suppose the reason for this "cosmetic" feature is to remove weight.. I see it as a way to make cleaning more difficult...
