I have a Rem 700 ADL 30-06 that I bought new in the 1960's. It gets used every year. Every 2-3 years I remove barrel/action from the stock, and blow out the trigger mechanism with comp. air. The trigger assembly has NEVER been dis-assembled. There's no rust or corrosion on anything...

Trying to think ahead here....... I know that hand-held flashlights use a variety of bulb types, such as "standard" incandescent, krypton, and xenon. Also LED bulbs of various "colors". I am wondering which of the bulb types produces the kind of light that would make a blood trail look...

Currently, Academy, Dicks, and Walmart are selling Remington 700 ADL's. I'm not talkin' SPS's here...these are ADL's. Blind magazine. Sez "ADL" on the Rem. factory carton. Today I looked at one of 'em in 30-06 at Walmart. Black synthetic stock, cheap scope, matte black steel. $417 +...

What exactly is "skim bedding" and what does it accomplish? How is is it different than plain "bedding"......? Is it done with both wood and synthetic stocks? Thanks, folks....... FjLee

I have plenty of Small Pistol Magnum primers. I want some Federal Small Pistol non-Magnum primers. I’ve never used Federal SP Match primers, but I currently have a good source for them. For light to medium intensity loads in a .357, can I interchangeably use the Federal SP _non...

Looking at the Hodgdon chart of "Powder Relative Burn Rates"......I see Alliant Red Dot powder is listed as being a "FASTER" powder than Bullseye. Prior to this, I've never, ever seen Red Dot listed as being "faster" than Bullseye. In fact, on page 4, the 1995 Alliant manual states...

I reload and shoot .357 mag. I only use WW brass, which has a consistent wall thickness at the mouth of the case of .0105 inch to .0115 inch. I shoot only JHP 125 grain bullets, and I really like a lot of “neck tension” gripping those bullets. I use RCBS dies, and when I resize that WW...

I observe that a lot of folks who tumble their brass add NU-FINISH and/or mineral spirits to the tumbling media. Including those who tumble _AFTER_ de-priming. When I think of doing that myself, I get uneasy about the fact that it seems to me that the trace of NU-FINISH/mineral spirits...

I use the Lee dippers a lot, with good success. Lately, though, it seems powder granules want to "stick" to the dippers. I followed Lee's instructions _EXACTLY_ for curing that. Didn't do much good. I also tried thoroughly wiping them with "anti-static" dryer sheet. Not much help...

I am liking & using the Lee powder dippers more and more. Often a dipper needs to have the capacity TEMPORARILY decreased a bit. ((I'd like to be able to return the dipper to its original capacity without major hassle)) I've tried aluminum foil, o-rings, and cardboard pieces. None of...

Years ago....probably more than 12-15 years ago.....I saw article/plans for building a portable tho really solid and heavy shooting rest. Not positive, but I think this article appeared in one of the "thick" annual publications.......like Gun Digest, Shooters Bible, Guns...

I hope to soon be shooting paper……in an exercise to develop good-grouping handloads. I have a good collection of reloading components, and manuals, so no reason to not have a load or 3 that groups nice and tight. I’ll be shooting a new Ruger GP100 with 4 inch barrel in .357 Original...

One of the local gun stores in Colorado has some .357 ammo called "Independence". I've not heard of that name, and a GOOGLE search of the ID# "F25M1" turned up nothing. THis is a loading of 158 grain JSP. No velocity listed. Price was $14 for box of 50. The cases appeared to be...

I've used the little Lee Loaders for many years. My first one cost $9.95, I think. I've reloaded shotgun and rifle ammo with them, but never reloaded any handgun ammunition. The rifle ammo I did did NOT require a crimp. I love the Lee Loaders, and the slowness doesn't bother me a bit. I...

I'll soon be buying some .357 ammo.....125 grain, for 4 inch Ruger GP100. I'm _NOT_ interested in .38 ammunition. This will _NOT_ be SD or hunting ammo, it'll be for plinking, informal target, and breaking in a new Ruger. Low velocity/low recoil is fine. Reasonably clean...

I recently made the rounds of a few brick/mortar places that sold handguns. This in the Denver Co area. Here's what I saw....all "new" prices, and I'm listing the BEST price that I saw. Ruger SP101 3" .357 SS (KSP 331x) $339 Ruger GP100 6" .357 SS (KGP 161)...

I'm somewhat in love with the 3 inch Ruger .357 GP100. The KGPF-331 model. As Ruger builds this, it has fixed sights. I want one of these with adjustable sights. Are there aftermarket adjustable sights for this revolver? Not Lasers or things like that, just some plain adjustable "iron...
