I've tried to use old powder for "just target shooting" (as opposed to hunting when I like my best odds.) TBH when I pop a cap and get a hang fire, I'm so nervous about a time delayed smoldering boom that it is not worth it to me. I hate that feeling. I throw mine into the lake or bury them on...

...because the guy was selling an SU16. I already have an AK with a folding stock which could "almost" fit the bill, but it is MUCH heavier. I wouldn't consider bringing the AK to hiking to camp or on a kayak trip. I still need to get some more experience with it but so far it fills a role for...

I did end up pulling the trigger on the rifle. Seller had upgraded the rear sight, stocks and added a light. SU16 ARstock by TwistingInTheWind posted Feb 15, 2023 at 8:10 PM I wanted it to fill the niche for me I was interested in, so I put the original buttstock back on and removed the...

Thanks, this is all great. This particular offer includes the original stock and an AR stock with a couple of accessories for $600. I especially appreciate the links to the other forum information, 35 Whelen! It sounds like it could fill a niche for me.

I normally am looking in on the Blackpowder threads but I (unexpectedly) have a chance to pick up a Kel-tec SU16c and I was wondering what some current experiences are after this rifle has been around and maybe has been proofed out. I tried to do my research, but related zombie discussions...

This might be low hanging fruit, but I make sure my breech plug has some anti-seize on it. One of the nice things about the CVA's is that you can take the plug out by hand if you keep some shmootz on the threads. Another thing I do is the first time I load my new gun and I'm sure everything...

This is also my example of something I do not miss. Sold my S&W Sigma Series .40 for same as what I spent. Mine stove piped all the time. It looked sexy, like a ghost gun (white frame and stainless slide) but just picking it up and shaking it made it sound like maracas it had so many rattles.

IF I try some I will post but to be honest: I'm probably not going to try it until I see something even comparable. I am not the type to push it that far without a reason... seems like lots of extreme loads are still a couple hundred FPS below this and the people loading/shooting them feel...

I've had more "fliers" when using lighter bullets in my Acura. It seems to like the heavier 300 grain bullets with a sabot. Maybe try a bigger bullet?

Powerbelts work well out of my Wolf but my Optima likes sabots. Powerbelts are very soft, lots of info out there on that. You can probably see it yourself because they dent easily even with the copper jacket. A drop on the floor can dent them, they can even dent each other in the packaging. I...

I know it says on the literature it should all be ok, but I was really wondering if anyone had DONE it using a Vaquero before I push the boundaries that far. It is a very hot sounding load and truth be told, I'm a little yellow...

I just got a Taylor's 1860 army (Pietta) from my wife for Christmas and have begun eyeballing these cylinders. Thanks for the information I'll be watching.

https://www.buffalobore.com/index.php?l=product_detail&p=335 is what I have.

I have a Ruger old model Vaquero (2 number prefix serial number) and have been sitting on a box of these +P Buffalo Bore "Deer Grenade" bullets for a while because frankly, I'm sorta intimidated. So I thought I'd ask if anyone has some real world experience with these and if so, what?

Hello! I've been so thankful for the information here so many times that I pretty much HAD to join. LOL. My interweb searches for gun advice always seem to include helpful information from the forums here. I've been helped by y'all on everything from my WASR to my blackpowder and others in...
