    Rust prevention under leather lever wrap??

    Just me- I'd wear a glove on my lever cranking hand before I'd put a semi-permanent wrapping on a rustable gun part, but again that's just me Never needed any of that

    10% over max powder?

    Yes That's because the factories have laboratories and blend many pounds of powders to get the desired burning rate and pressures they want to prepare tons of powder for loading the ammunition they sell. Loading data is prepared by these same laboratories for use with the consumer grade...

    Im looking to do a pig hunt this spring

    I've eaten a few that were ok, but I have learned that if one stinks when I approach it, it's relegated to the buzzards. Had several people tell me do this or do that and it'll kill the stink. Nope Not me No thank you

    Is there a place for the "Forgotten" Gauges?

    I had a 3 1/2 " 10ga when we used to hunt a place with a large turkey population. The big two and a quarter ounce payload really did the work I've seen in different places that a 410 with bismuth shot has become popular with many. I can't speak on that because I have no experience with...

    Shop Towel Patches?

    Any paper towels will possibly leave small shreds of towel and fibers in the bore. Unless your eyesight is excellent and you'd be able to see anything left behind, I'd skip the paper towels for bore cleaning except for maybe an emergency expedient A big bag of cotton bore cleaning...

    Defending the Occupied Home

    I get the feeling that a few are of the opinion that a law abiding homeowner has the responsibility to ring the home with cameras and alarms and burglar bars and hide in a closet if awakened from a peaceful sleep by a thug kicking in the door at 3AM There's only one victim of a break in...

    Load Testing and Sight Adjustments for Heritage Rough Rider

    Just me- if you're shooting it at 5 yards/ 15 feet, sight adjustment or sights in general are a non-issue I have an old Arminus 22lr revolver that doesn't even have a front sight ( removed by a previous owner at some point in time) and I can hit cold drink cans at 15 feet without...

    Disturbing problem: Cartridge with Lyman cast bullet handloaded to COAL spec will NOT chamber in my rifle

    I already know that it's not exactly what you're looking for The slimmed down short version is to get a different mould that fits your rifle, or a new rifle that will work with the mould You're exactly right on the one thing. You don't force ammunition in any way The only similar...

    Poll on Reload disaster

    ^ ^ ^ ^ this ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ Reloading needs 100% full attention to everything that's being done. I've said it many times, and it chaps some people's butts, but it's their butt to risk and their firearms to put at risk Meanwhile we can all read the many posts all over the web about stuck bolts...

    Poll on Reload disaster

    Bought a used gun years ago that came with a fair amount of loaded ammunition. First outing I was getting tremendous muzzle flash and recoil The range man came out and asked what exactly was I shooting. We looked and he says discontinue using that here today. I called the guy up and asked...

    Disposal of scrap live wad cutters

    Still using the used one that came with my used reloading stuff I bought in the early 80's The slim black o-ring has been replaced since I had it because of dry rot With proper finesse and technique, you can pull with one properly done wrist snap
