    Thought I was doing everything correctly until the big bang

    I haven't been on THR for a week and just came across the post. Luckily I didn't have your same experience but I think I might have been close. I got my Savage 6.5cm and couldn't wait to get my OAL gauge from midway so I loaded up a bunch of rounds to factory spec OAL (Hornady) and went to the...

    Hornady Iron Press Release Date?

    Does anyone on this forum have any insider info as to when we can expect to see the new iron press hit retail stores? I have called Hornady and the person on the phone wasn't quite sure when we would see them. I have heard the end of the first quarter and another rumor is sometime in Feb...

    Wet Tumbling? Don't Forget The Lemishine.

    Just another idea to share. Your experience is almost exactly the same as what has happened to me. This summer a neighbor wanted me to wash up his 223 brass (300-400 pieces). I put them in and started to wash. When I went to get them out I thought for a fraction of a second, "why did I wash...

    Be a "hoarder" with me!

    It has been a long couple of years of relearning the concept "supply and demand" for most of us. Generally it feels like things in the shooting world are getting better when it comes to reloading supplies, guns, ammo, ar-15's, magazines, and everything else related to guns. I am really...

    Ruger MK III or Browning Buckmark for traget use?

    I currently have 3 MKII's and 3 MKIII's. I have also owned 2 buck mark campers. They are all great guns. With the Rugers, I now get the MKIII and immediately get on Amazon and order a Tandem Cross hammer bushing to replace the Magazine release. I definitely still like the MKII"s but they are...

    Something not right about this picture

    When I first got into collecting guns I purchased a Henry 44 big boy. It never felt right shooting it. It felt so uncomfortable to shoot but I was too much of a rookie to realize what was wrong so I sold it to a friend for next to nothing. A couple of days later he asks me if I had installed the...

    What's your favorite firearm activity to do?

    Long distance rifle shooting. I love hearing the sound come back seconds later after hitting steel or a rock. Its just finding a good place to do it is the problem.

    POLL: Were You Ready?

    I was prepared, but like most, always want more. I do have to say that when my wife, sister and mom head out on the day after thanksgiving sales I just roll my eyes then go back to sleep. They like to get into the thick of it just for the show. I have to admit that I actually like to stop...

    Is anyone using the RCBS Primer Pocket Swager Combo 2 for .223 brass

    Tried the RCBS Swaging tool, sold it, then bought the Dillon. The Dillon is worth every penny

    Gun You HAD To Get, Got, Then Lost Interest

    For sure a Ruger Single Six hunter. It was a great gun and well made. I loved to handle it and just look at it. Just couldn't fall in love with the dang thing. Too slow to load and unload.

    Best Group You have ever shot

    OK, Ok, Ok. I have been shooting about 3 times a month for about 7 years and feel like my skills are pretty good. My point is I did not shoot one round and completely miss the piece of paper!!! After 10's of thousands of round I have this 3 shot group. Some people call it luck, I call...

    What is the last gun that you bought?

    Ruger sp-101 .22lr. This is the old version made 10 or so years ago. I have wanted one for a long time and happened to be at the right place, at the right time. A person brought it in on consignment hours before. I saw it, grabbed my wallet and just said, "Ill take that." I didn't look too...

    Grouping in pairs

    I had the same problem and solved it with a better scope and it went away. Somehow it was the scope shifting due to recoil I guess.

    RCBS Rock Chucker problem

    Just last month I messed up my primer arm because I wasn't paying attention to the postion of my primer feed tube (another discussion for another day). I called rcbs and they were great. I was calling about a replacement part to be sure to get (buy) the right part. The service guy just sent me...

    S&w 317

    Had one for a year but could not hit anything with it. The trigger was the heaviest pull of any gun that I have ever owned. I own a 1/2 dozen revolvers and it is the only one that I have sold. It was a good gun but for quality but just couldn't hit anything with it. I replaced it with a 617...

    John Moses Browning Picture Thread

    Funny that this thread came up. I went to the Browning Museum today and took some pictures of the "originals" that John made. Anyone who comes through Utah needs to come up and see this museum here in Ogden. For a gun lover, who has just a small clue to what he did, it is a sacred event...

    For all the Ruger bashers out there.

    My only complaint, after having 4 revolvers, is bringing back a .22lr. I am tighter with my money now a days and shoot a lot more .22lr. I also don't want to pay $600 to $700 for a used one.

    Firearms museums...

    Browning museum in Ogden, Utah is amazing to see. There are a lot of the originals there that started it all for browning. My favorite part is all of the Military firearm originals. After that you can go a couple of miles over to the Ogden Cemetary to see John's Grave site.
