    Bug-a-salt

    OK, so I got one. Been seeing them for a while and my wife said just get one. And not just any one, I got the new and improved "BUG-A-SALT 2.0". Did not stop there,no sir. Spent an extra $5 and got the limited edition "Camofly". Seriously though my curiosity got the better of me and I wanted...

    Lost and found with a plus

    Moved last year and still looking for stuff. Realized I had not seen a 50 cal. ammo can filled with Mosin tracer slugs. I will pass on describing the hunt but 1/2 an hour later I found it. The plus was that I found a box with enough Mosin slugs to fill another .50 can that I forgot about. They...

    FREE!, to me.

    A local gun store was given a Sheridan Blue Streak that was placed in a corner and ignored. I'm not an official employee but became friends with the owner so I help out behind the counter when needed. I said I'll clean and get the Sheridan up and running, so it followed me home. Did the minor...

    ARG!, wimper, help? lost info.

    Moved a couple months ago. So this will be my first reloading at the new house. Can not find the info. Lee includes a few loads with their dies and I used the info with good results. 444 Marlin, 240gr. lead slugs and Hercules 2400. I kept records of reloads going back 20+ years and its hidden...

    Sold a gun

    Some come and go, may get one cheap then gone for profit. This was a Winchester Model 50 12ga. Good bluing, refinished the wood with Finnish pine tar. Let it go for $325, into it for $150. But it was a nice gun. I've pumps and auto loaders to keep so I did not need a 3 shot auto. Here's the...

    A day in a gun shop.

    A day in a gun shop. The whole long day from opening and set up to finish. Was covering for a friend. Nothing I had not known before as I've help out before but this time it was solo. It's great to visit and look around a store and leave when done. Being behind the counter is different. Not bad...

    How much is to much?

    I've run into the nasty part of a good supply of ammo, I'm moving, bought a house. 2 daughters volunteered their husbands and an LGS owner owes me a favor so I get his 18 year old son also. I looked at the stacks of ammo and said, no way. I'll wait for help to arrive.

    $600, what to get.

    I realized a person can have to many guns, sort of. So I sent some of the extras and unused up to the LGS for consignment. Sitting on about $600 to play with at the moment. Just got a Suomi I have not shot yet due to the weather. So I ordered a Ruger American 22lr. One of the herd that got...

    It's here, it's here, TNW M31!

    Was going to get the kit but for an extra $75 it comes assembled and parkerized. Only problem is Oregon got hit with a rare for here snow. I'll throw the chains on and go out tomorrow. Going to lose the brass but I've a couple 5 gallon buckets of the stuff. Anyone here shot these? Came with...

    Hand thumper.

    Bought a new Taurus ULTRA-LITE in a 44 special this week end. Does not have a painful snap/slap when shot. But is more like a fast hard push. Shoots very well though, 10 paces, pattern 1" wide. 2" tall, 5 rounds. 50 yards would be unhealthy to be in front of with all aimed shots. Does take...

    Don't buy this Dillon part!!!!

    I have just gotten a brand new Dillon 1200B case trimmer this weekend, makes short work of a 5 gallon bucket of .308's. Anyway, was going to get a spare cutting blade but waited after seeing a picture of the unit. I know that part, spent many years turning brake drums and rotors in an auto...

    New gun, new store, second job

    All the same place. Picked up a Taurus Tracker, .22, stainless, shoots like a dream. Still rainy out here, only put a few hundred through it. A family opened a LGS here and got free publicity. The town liberal raised a stink and as a result the store was on the local paper's front page due do...

    Grand kids

    So you may have passed on gun info to your kids, then what. I've shown grand kids how to reload starting with loading Dillon primer tubes. Not unsupervised, of course. Then placing empty, fired, cases in the reloader no. 1 position. They may get to pull the handle down some times, but I need...

    Pistol primers in rifle cases.

    Getting low on rifle primers,(for me), so as an experiment I used pistol primers to use in .308 with lead slugs and 10 grs. Reddot. No noticeable difference or pressure issues. I know the primer is shorter and of a material to be subjected to lesser pressure, but seems to work fine. Have...

    SAECO sizing dies

    Finally stopped procrastinating and bought .309 and .312 dies and top punch for my SAECO. Beats the heck out of setting and greasing by hand, then running them through a Lee sizer die.

    A toy for you/grandkids

    You will like this, found this summer when getting bored. Get some poppers or snappers, various names but it is the little tear-dropped shaped paper cap you throw and it pops. Get a large diameter soda straw, they fit tight. To get them in to the straw may have to roll them carefully between...
