    7.62X54R, crazy question...

    my wife and I might be going to hawaii for a while... and I wouldn't mind doing some pig hunting while I am there. My question is this: could a 7.62X54R be reloaded down quite a bit? I know this cartridge is likened to an -06, could it be brought down a generous amount? Why, you ask? Overall...

    Estimated value on this setup?

    I R using imageshack for hosting, never had any problems with it before. I've used it here and a myriad of other places. Which anti-virus?

    Estimated value on this setup?

    weeeeelll...there's a little asterisk by this... my dad has gotten into reloading 3 times now. Each time, he's not done it very much, or for very long and sold all of the stuff at the end of that time. I've spent more time on the back of my dad's dirtbike then in the reloading room. This last...

    Estimated value on this setup?

    Recently my pa gave me a box of reloading goodies.... the whole smash... and powder... and other stuff. The list kinda looks like this: roughly 100 brass cases of .22 hornet (probly less of these) .270 (brand new) .243 and a good handful of .38/357 cases. Also a box of 30-30 brass...

    Gun shop worker shot by accident

    I went in to Jerry's today to pickup my new 1911 (drool). Jerry looked like he hadn't slept since Friday night, and Rich was very, very somber. He's not a real loud guy to start with, but man, the look in his eyes was just awful. The thing that pisses me off about this is that they may press...

    Gun shop worker shot by accident

    /agree everyone is quick to self-righteously piss on the employee and the gun owner. Tell me you have never ever done anything contrary to safe firearm handling rules. Tell me you have never had a "whoops, lemme fix that" moment. Tell me you have never been in front of the barrel of a firearm...

    Gun shop worker shot by accident

    I was about to post this... I was in there last night, I traded my Sig off and was in the process of the background check to take my new 1911 home. One of the guys, (not the one who got shot), bungled my last name on the background check, so they knew it wouldn't go thru, and I was supposed to...

    1911 part swap out

    I've been looking at 1911s recently and I wonder... on the back side of the grip, lower down, there seems to be a hard plastic grip right below the grip safety. Upon further inspection this seems to be removable. I don't personally care for the roughness of this grip, can you get...

    Time Comparision - Cocked and Locked v. Racking the Slide

    website is too much fun... my avg is around .2033, high of .23, low of .18 ...I think that comes from playing too much Unreal Tournament. (there's a pretty interesting study on brain surgeons playing that game, but I digress). Question tho, isn't there something more to reaction with a weapon...

    Glock 19

    I like Glocks, and I had a 19, but I liked my 17C way better. I have a Sig now, but I just shot my bosses 1911...argh. I love them both ...but that 1911...is just... I cannot keep doing this. :banghead: GP

    CCW Discussion for the Skinny Guys

    I noted a lot of 1911s in this discussion... another reason I need one. Kinda hard to conceal a double stack when one is 6'1" and 157 pounds. :) GP

    Bought my wife a .380 thunder...she loves it. talked to the store owner here recently...said he'd been selling them for 11 years, folks love em, and he's never seen one come back for defects. Pretty hard to beat for the money IMHO. GP

    Para LTC vs Springfield Gov

    hey yall... I've been thinking about canning the elk rifle idea for a while. Why? If my folks move soon (which is highly likely), I'll lose my area to hunt, my place to butcher, and my help. Also, if a dem'krat get elected (God forbid!) they prob'ly won't go after elk rifles. They will go after...

    New Rifle, Remmy 521-T

    nice target John!! I've shot this a few times...once with CB caps, and again a few weeks later with real (lol) bullets. I'm with Red on the ammo...Remmy Goldens are my choice. McGunner, I agree..you cannot feel the sear at all on this rifle. It's such a light trigger that it sometimes goes off...

    New Rifle, Remmy 521-T

    My dad gave me a Remmy 521-T over the last weekend... he knew I always wanted it, so it was a late Christmas present. The trigger has been...worked on. 1/8th inch distance pull, and maybe...ohh..say...1lb or less pressure needed? It's so light it's almost unsafe. I need a way to check...

    Most important fact on this election

    absolutely. This is probably the biggest reason that the "give 'em Hillary for 4 years and see how they like it!" line of reasoning is not-so-hot. Some of the conservatives I meet and read, and hear, and see scare me. They are so wrapped up in their one candidate that I fear they have a "I'm...
