    Value of Handloading/reloading

    I've haven't reloaded i n years and years. When I did I was really more of an apprentice type. But, I'm thinking of starting myself. My primary rifle is a 300 weatherby Mag. I realize all the quality benefits of custom load development Manufactured ammo is $40-$100 for a box of 20. How...

    How do you find private sales?

    Ever notice there are some people who always know someone willing to sell a gun? I'm never that guy. If I wanted to buy a gun I'd need to go to a pawn shop or gun store. How do you find individuals who are willing to sell a gun?

    Improve Rossi Stock's Finish

    Hey Guys! I know I'm relatively new here, but I hope you can give me some advice. I just picked up a Rossi 20g single shot for my son's birthday present. It's in pretty good condition, but the stocks are sorta blah. I'm hoping to do something to help them. Years ago I bought a Rossi...

    Reloading/Workbench Question

    I have a quick question I'm hoping y'all can answer. I have a lead on some old tabletops that I could easily turn into nice workbenches just by adding legs. The dimensions are 20" deep, 56" long. Is 20" too shallow? My initial thought is that it would work and anything deeper would just...

    Mossberg 500 Mariner for $300

    My local store has a Mossberg 500 Mariner for $299 and the guy said they might be discounting it more soon. Is this gun just designed for home defense or could it be used for some sort of hunting? For the price is it something I should buy if I could get it for $250? What's the aftermarket...

    Dating a Eastern Arms 101.15 / Stephens 5100

    I'm helping fix up my Granddaddy's sxs shotgun. It's an old Sears and Roebuck and Co. USA Eastern Arms 101.15 (written on the left side of the action) which I understand is a Stephens 5100. This explains the 5100 stamped on the right side of the action. On top of the barrels it says Selected...

    Dating a Remington 550-I

    My grandfather gave me a Remington 550-I. I'm pretty excited to have the old .22 and I'm in the process of trying to give it a little TLC. I'm also trying to date it. On the top of the barrel it reads the model #, caliber and patent numbers. On the very side, very small mark that kinda looks...

    Remington 550-I Fixer Upper

    I inherited a Remington 550-I from a relative that passed. I loved him and want to repair the gun, should I say "spruce it up." It works fine as a gun. I've shot quite a few round through it. But, it's had a hard life. I don't think it's ever been cleaned and I don't really know how. I've...

    First Gun for Son/Daughter

    I've been taking my son hunting for a few years, he's 10. We don't get a chance to go out as much as I'd like - maybe once a year. As a result he's a little behind the shooting curve for some of his friends. Last year we shot a Remington 550 .22 quite a lot at camp. He demonstrated good...
