    Beware! Ammo Not What It Was Labeled

    I had a sort of similar problem. I went to a gun show and bought a bag of .44-40 brass. I reloaded them and I noticed that every so often, maybe 4 times one would be hard to run through the press but not really anything to fuss about. I went out to the local SASS match and right in the...

    Even gun owners can be stupid

    I am having a rather heated discussion with a couple of gun owners on an extremely liberal forum. The one claims to be an avid hunter and has several guns but he sees no reason for anyone to own a "military" style rifle or or pistol or for any gun to have a capacity over 6 rounds. I...

    Question on original Conversions for C&B Revolvers

    Loads for a M1 Rifle

    thanks for the Info... I have reloaded for my 1903 Springfield but its been so long I have forgotten what loads I used so I figured rather than mess up the M1 with the wrong load, I would just reload new rounds and mark them specifically for the M1. Thanks again... :D

    Bullet Mold Question

    Back years ago I used to cast .440 Round Balls with a Lee mold. I didn't cast that many at a time and never lubed the mold. Anyway, I recently bought a .454 Round Ball mold, a .58 Minie Ball mold, and a .54 Sharps mold. They are all Lee molds and the instructions that came with them say to...

    WHY do you like what you like?

    I have two favorites. 1. The 1911 Colt. I owned one for a while and loved it. I loved the power it had and the way it felt in my hand. It seems to point well and handle like it was made for me. Of course, being a military gun nut, I am a bit partial. 2. The Remington '58 .44 (WIth...

    New member here. I bought an M1 Rifle a while back and want to load for it. I have heard that too strong a load will cause problems with the rifle. What are some recommended loads as far as powder and bullet weight? Any suggestions will be appreciated...
