Just curious. Whenever I tell people, in person or in forums like this, that I can get 4" groups at 25 meters shooting my own reloads/homecast 158 grain LSWC 38 spl +P (1,000 fps+), standing two-hand hold in Double Action out of my 6 inch GP100 or 6" 686...I get comments or looks that say "Wow...
My 586's cylinder is stuck.....like it doesn't want to open (to load ammo).
Everything else functions properly but the cylinder release. It hasn't been returned to S&W for the no dash and dash one factory mods.
From what I can see, the cylinder pin at the rear, in the center of the...
Folks, I need your help answering this question. Could've been asked and answered before but tried a forum search but couldn't find a definitive answer.
First a short background. Got a few bolt actions: a couple of CZ452s (Style and Varmint), Lakefield 91TR, Winchester 69A...all capable of...

I sold my last 1911 10 months ago after having decided to concentrate on revolvers and one (two? - .38spl and .357mag) caliber. This was part of a move to simplify my shooting gear and reloading stuff.
However I have this 1911-.45acp itch that needs to be scratched on a limited budget. I want...
1. Why bother to slug the barrel and then size your bullets to match, when the bullet has to pass through the cylinder throat before entering the barrel through the forcing cone?
2. Isn't an oversized bullet re-sized by the cylinder throat anyway? In this case, shouldn't bullets be sized...
Anybody with experience using the TM Optics red dot scope (from the pictures, it looks like the "Barska"), sold by Gunney's Garage? Price beats most, if not all other scopes that can handle large caliber handguns and rifles.
I'm not looking for the best scope at this price, as I'm a...
Been searching this forum for any threads on tumble lubing jacketed and plated bullets but came up zilch. Must be doing something wrong, but figured may be easier to just throw this question to all you guys.
Would a little LLA help squeeze a little more velocity and reduce barrel wear...
Hello All,
Reason I joined is this is a great forum, with very knowledgeable members.
Always had a .45 1911 automatic until last week, that is. Since I've loved wheelguns my whole life, decided to simplify my reloading life by sticking to .357/.38 special only.
