    I finally realized a goal, I got my patch at the Appleseed.

    I finally did it, during my second Appleseed I shot a qualifying score with my AR 15 at the Appleseed event at my club. It was only 60 bucks for 2 days of good instruction and a course on American heritage. The course teaches practical accuracy with a rifle and sling, field shooting. It is a...

    Pedersoli quality slipping?

    I just bought a Remington flask and other parts from TOW. I must say, I am quite disappointed in the quality of this flask. First of all the spring on top is actually larger than the top cap, unsightly. The next problem is the brass cap is not even on the body squarely. And last you can see...

    I had a Uberti Christmas!

    My good friends chipped in and bought me a 58 Remington Uberti 8 incher! I got it a few days early and shot it on Christmas Eve morning. WOW! That group is the first 6 shots at 15 yards, and I pulled the first one.

    Boring a revolver cylinder.

    I have and old Armi San Paolo .44 "Navy" model that I bought years ago in a broken, but unfired condition condition. I replaced and fitted the new action parts with Dixie Gun Works parts and it functions fine. I took it to the range and it is very inaccurate. I slugged the barrel and cylinder...

    Cylinder boring.

    Can anyone reccomend a good gunsmith, preferrably in Pa, to bore a Colt replica cap and ball cylinder out a little bit? I have a 1970 Armi San Paolo that has chambers smaller than the bore diameter. It is very inaccurate. Thanks for any help.

    Anyone use Red Dot in .45 Colt?

    I just got 2 pounds of Red dot. The only info on Alliants site is for a 200gr. Semi Wadcutter. In one of my old reloader magazines I found an article on using this powder in .41 Mag. I don't own a .41 but do have a .44 Mag and .45 Colt SAA. Is anyone using this stuff and how does it work for...

    To gas check or not to gas check?

    I plan on molding SWC's for my .44 using a 429244 Lyman mold. This mold is made for a gas check. Can I use it without the gas check? I'll be using 2400 at about 1250 fps. I did inherit the Lubrisizer with it and some gas checks but I've noticed GC's are kinda pricy. I have shot some Speer cast...

    Wheel weights for cast bullets (Zinc?)

    I am getting into casting my own bullets for my .44 and .357 mags. I bought 46 lbs. of wheel weights at the scrap yard for cheap. About 25% turned out to be steel so I separated them out. I did a search here and found several threads on casting bullets and warning about "ruining your lead with...

    Do you consider yourself a shooter or a collector?

    Well? I consider myself a bit of both. But much more a shooter. As Townsend Whelen once said "Only accurate rifles are interesting". A true collectors piece that doesn't perform just doesn't scratch that itch. Let the fur fly! Post your thoughts! Thank you, and Good Day!

    Mosin Repro Sniper......problem.

    Hello, I bought a repro sniper from SOG. This thing shoots 1.25 MOA with Ruskie ball. Am I happy, Yes. Problem is the dang scope is about 1/4 inch toward the left side of the rifle. This will cause serious problems at further ranges. Anyone have a solution to this problem before I start cutting...

    Is anyone here reloading Berdan primed casings?

    Hi, I just ordered a tool to de-cap Berdan primers for 8X57 Mauser casings. Is anyone here loading these? The only reason I'm looking into this is I have tons of berdan primed once fired brass in this caliber. I have been loading this caliber in Boxer casings for a while so I'm not a newbe, Any...

    Walk in Gun Vault?

    Any body have one? Any suggestions? I just bought a new house (made in 1926 but new to me!) with 2 large unheated all conrete basement rooms. I would need to insulate them I guess and seal it from humidity before I buy the safe door. Any other considerations that I'm not thinking about? About...
