    454 Casull short barrel loads?

    results Grumulkin, I know that loads are the same, but as w/ my BFR vs lever action, I can't use most of the same loads, (unburnt powder in revolver). Also, as with my snubby 357 vs full length, 2400 doesn't burn effectively in the short barrel. The 200gr was designed for the 460s&w...

    454 Casull short barrel loads?

    Hello all, Well, I couldn't walk away from the boat anchor, The Alaskan, I had to have it. With me it's what I can hold steady and that thing was rock steady, weight distribution being great for me. I am aware that one shouldn't use lighter bullets designed for slower velocities...

    You've Only Got ONE Shot...Make it Count!

    BFR I suppose theBR in 45/70 w/ my 440 hard cast,(on 2nd thought the pure lead might be interesting, lol) at 1550fps ought to do the trick. center mass bordering on high thoracic.:neener: more realistically though I'm plenty comfortable w/ 357 w/ 125gr gold dots sitting on top a healthy...

    Handgun Ammo Shortage?

    not getting better Now that spring is finally hitting us here in the Big sky country the gopher hunters are coming out and..... going back in, :confused: I was at several shops on the weekend and young guys come in looking for 22lr ammo and were told like most other places, "sorry, we are...

    Ruger LCP clip defect (?)

    contented now well, fired several boxes through new LCP using 'old style' mags and am quite content. I did some testing on wet newspaper using a variety of weights and brands and the Speer 90gr gold dots behind a stiff load of Unique performed best and well to my liking. Average penetration...

    Ruger LCP clip defect (?)

    Hey Hey, ProMag! Hey, sent Promag a question asking when they are gonna make a higher cap for miss Elsie Pea. Their response was their 2009 excel price list, I need to get back in touch w/ them to find out if they are for sale yet or not. Like to also find out if what they have for a grip...

    Ruger LCP clip defect (?)

    gglass, guess thats the thing about it, sometimes when im wearing loose sweats or shorts and a tshirt you can hide the lcp, or as on gunblast he called it Miss Elsie Pea, lol, about anywhere. I have bigger, i like to rotate between my 357 and 45, but this thing you can truly forget ur wearing...

    Ruger LCP clip defect (?)

    Q? point of aim and ammo selection? I haven't given up, actually once I swallowed the lump in my throat I'm getting excited again. Picked up Remington Ball 95gr, super dirty when cleaned after ~50 rnds. tried a few speer 100 gr hp, w/ med to upper charge of unique, didn't seem any diff from...

    Ruger LCP clip defect (?)

    feedback no news from Ruger yet, but did talk to owner of shop and he set me up w/ a new lcp, (still 370-xxxxxx diamond stamp). I picked up a couple mags, w/out finger rest and think the original mags might hold up better. I think that depending upon your hand size the force that is exerted...

    Ruger LCP clip defect (?)

    closer up, lol perhaps see bit better here. something like this makes me want to file the release down to avoid accidental mag drop, as well as replicating an aluminum or steel lockup for it, but not w/ a new one! (unless I get dumped on.)

    Ruger LCP clip defect (?)

    Same prob I fought against my friends advice when I picked up an LCP yesterday. They hate the 380 and most would rather depend on a 22 in something like the pop up beretta, ahh well. Picked it up and a couple boxes of Remington Ball. shot partial box yesterday, only probs were from too...

    Wife's SP101: Spring upgrade.

    wifes new 101, misfires my wife just got a 101 hammerless and we went to the range today, 1st outting. I was disgusted, about 1 out of every cylinder was a misfire. Mostly I use CCI, some Win and Fed, but believe all these were CCI. We fired a couple cylinders of 'factory' and no problems...

    The BFR!

    newbie here but my two bits Hello All, had to throw my two bits in here. I'm the proud owner of a 10" BFR in 45/70. I was amazed shooting standard factory loads didn't grab me like my little 357 snubby with hard cast 165 does, (hot loads, light gun). Not wanting to join in on a spitting...

    Magnum Research BFR .45-70 loads - which ones?

    BFR Reading on their site they say #2 loads, for lever guns but not higher level for Ruger #1's and the like. I have been looking for a large Magnum and think I have settled on the BFR. From experience can anyone relate the recoil to me? I shoot 41 mag full power and had a 44 mag that I...
