    Can a PA Pellet Accelerator Flintlock Use BP for the main charge?

    Have this model coming in tomorrow so I can use it for the extended PA Flintlock season. Now I know that you use 4f (or 3f/2f) for the pan charge, but can you use (not 4f of course) it for the main charge? I see reference to loose powder, but I get the feeling that refers to pyrodex loose...

    Best Donor Shotguns for SBS Projects

    So what would people suggest are good donor models for a Short Barrel Shotgun? I guess I want something that a smith can easily work with, although some like [url=http://www.paladinarmory.com/SBSAOW.htm] can do works with everything from high ends to the Norinco and Turkish end of the spectrum...

    Reloading for .35 Remington and .300 Savage

    I have a two new C&R firearms incoming. One is a 1941 Remington Model 81 in .300 Savage and the other is a ~1950s Remington Gamemaster Pump 760 in 35 Remington. The 760 is a freebie from a in-law and being left handed I can't complain and the Model 81 was a screaming deal I couldn't pass up...

    Trail Boss and the 38 S&W

    Has anyone had any luck with loading trail boss in either 158g or 180g flat point bullets? I don't mind using unique since 38 S&W isn't exactly recoil heavy anyway, but just kind of wondering if anyone does it. Was really happy to get a jug today, Trail Boss has been pretty hard to find. I was...

    Powder disposal

    I have a small amount of powder, (50g-70g top) that I had to junk because I had a small amount of a different powder stuck in the hopper. Now I doubt any of the two mixed...but it's Unique and IMR-800X...not risking it. I live in an apartment, so I don't have a lawn per se, and when I have a...

    So does this seating depth seem okay for 38 special?

    I'm intending to use the minimum Unique Load for a 158gr LSWC. By pleasant dumb luck this was my initial bullet seating. Seem in range between the min for load listed by Lee and the max OAL for the cartridge.

    Lee Perfect Powder Measure and Loads Less than One

    In short I setup the Lee Perfect Powder Measure and I calculated out the required setting of 4gr of Unique is .4368. The amount given in the Lee Manual dealt with a rifle load that was 3.28. I was just wondering how do I set the device with a number that requires less than one unit.

    T/C Encore, Contenders, G2s..Confused

    Hey, I've always had an interested in the Thompson pistols chambered in wildly insane calibers...because the idea of a 30-06 pistol sounds pretty darn fun! Now I'm kind of confused on what each product offers. I basically want something that has the strongest frame, though I guess it...

    Is Replacing a Hammer in a Colt Cobra a DIY or a take it to a Smith Job?

    Just going to want to replace the bobbled hammer on a Cobra I'm getting and I want to know if it's something I can do or IIRC due to indexing issues, something that I should take to a smith?

    Colt Cobra Fix-er-upper

    Well in the battle to not be impulsive, being impulsive struck a major blow today. I was in Kings Shooter Supply in their new location in King of Prussia PA last night (and actually I had noticed it the week before) and I decided to take a look at a Colt Cobra that was in stock. The gun...

    So my Glock came with only Stand...well anywhere but NYS mags

    I got a Glock 20 Gen 4 with 3 10 round Magazines from grabagun (no issues with them at all, hell they shipped SAME DAY). Now I've seen old threads about this and generally the suggestion is that the distributor is trying to screw you over and that Glock unless legally required doesn't sub locap...

    So by dumb luck today I was looking around on Grabaguns website and...well I have no clue how...I found a Glock 20 Gen 4 in stock with one left.
