    What handgun will make me a better shooter?

    I fully agree...................... It doesn't matter which handgun you choose to practice the principals. The key is to master the principal skills. If you make a list of the principal skills, practice them one at a time and then gradually bring them together as a set, you will have a good...

    cleaning and oiling under the grip

    Whatever lubricant you use on any part of the frame, exposed or covered, will only be as effective as the thin film that covers the surface. Grease, heavy oils, etc. left on the surface serve no purpose. A good cleaning and a light coat of penetrating oil (Marvel Mystery Oil, Kroil, etc.) is...

    Key word here is "automatic". I'm not aware of any state that issues CCWs to anyone "automatically". Restraining orders yes; CCW, uhuh.

    What am I doing wrong here?

    Based on your description it's my guess the unsupported target (sans backing) is simply flexing ahead of the bullet's full penetration and generating holes that look like key hole prints. Try backing the target and see what happens. I don't see a scale in your loading kit. How do you know...

    Is there such a thing as a barrel that would last forever?

    Overwhelmed about 1903

    Two years ago I found an '03 on the consignment shelf at a local gun store/shooting range. Head space gauges confirmed the chamber was servicable and the bore looked pretty good - but I didn't have a bore scope. I considered the price ($600) to be pretty darn good. I was fortunate to find one...

    Anyone shoot a Bartlein Barrel?

    My Bartlein R5 in .284 is fantastic. I'm about to order another one to keep on hand for that time when I have to retire this one.

    Terminal Ballistics vs Accuracy

    IMO, inasmuch as the 5.56 isn't suitable for hunting above the varmint level I'd suggest working on the load for accuracy, then find a bullet with the expansion/penetration characteristics combination you need. If you run the ballistics on the load you describe and can maintain results of...
