Jeez, man, my bad! I intended no harm.... I wasn’t “telling” you anything... Peace.

Is Winchester’s new levers any better in stock fitment nowadays? I haven’t looked at a new one in a long time.

At today’s price increases, reloading even one and done would be cost effective if you had the equipment.

Thanks. I may not invest in new stuff to lad them, but will start saving them anyway, just in case. It’s 20and12, too.

So.... is the consensus that I won’t get enough reloads out of the Cheddite to even start with them, wads, etc? I have loaded Rem and some federal. Or is it that the reloaded rounds are just no good, don’t pattern, cycle, etc? I watched Manny CA on YouTube reload them like 6x . Obviously not...

Totally agree. How’s the Volq? Are they that good, as people say?

My bad. I don’t own one. I have old Winchesters, though I like the Marlins, too. I had only picked them up in store, and I just thought it was plastic, or maybe I assumed such because of all the plastic on guns now.... The crossbolt would not stop me from buying one, though, if it fit my usage.

But they could change it! Plastic button on a steel receiver is like lipstick on a pig! They could make it a case colored flip steel lever. I too, prefer the old half cock. Since it’s Ruger, maybe a transfer bar...? One can dream

That will never happen, imo, in our litigious society! Just don’t think it ever will.

Well, Remington hulls are near impossible to find. Now that ATK has them, I’d think they’re gonna have Federal style hulls going forward?

Yeah it’s a great forum for info. I learned about the DIP trigger from there. And on Arrowdodger’s trigger..... Please be extra careful if you carry that gun hunting or with a youth, if it has the 1.4 lb pull... I saw that trigger job talked of a lot, but, imho, less than 3lb. is too...

Entropy, I see you reload shotshells... I have done a little of that too. What is your opinion of the cheddite hulls for reloading? I have been shooting Rios at my club, more than most brands lately.

Just look at this thread! It goes to show that Ruger made a great deal, buying Marlin for what, 30? !! And if they play this right, they can use the acquisition to improve the Ruger brand, and establish the Marlin brand as American standards as well as rival the other international brands...

Another great question is what will the price settle at when this is all over? It’s like gasoline.. Every time it makes big big jumps quick, it never goes back to true supply v demand pricing. 22lr was 2-3 cents before the 1st shortage. It’s not nearly as “tin foil” as probably we think it...

Yes that’s what it sounds like. That’s it. I agree w/you, if you can shoot well to 350 you are ahead of most.

Why on earth are there not new hedge fund investors and companies not trying to get into ammunition? Is it all about getting a Government contract, and if they cannot they are afraid? It seems to me there is plenty of cap room for undercutting todays higher prices (for years, really) by going...

I used CLP the other day. I read the can and it didn’t say not to use on plastics. I guess its ok? I don’t buy the chlorine (old) formula for brake jobs either. It’s bad to breathe inside a garage. VOC’s I don’t know what is in CLP.?

I I think he may be insinuating that he could hit, but not a killing hit, or that killing hits would be inconsistent at best, resulting in wounding?

Thanks.

I think that Ruger will continue the 60 in the short term, even if it is unchanged. There seem to be no new ones for sale, so they could probably sell quite a few,....and all they’d have to do to sell a LOT of them just the way they are internally, is just put those Talo special hardwood stocks...
