    Varget - What Do You Use it for?

    I run it in .17 Rem, .223 Rem, 220 Swift, 6 mm Rem, and .25-06. It's pretty versatile stuff.

    What Are Your AWB "Panic Guns?"

    Back in 94 I bought 6 AK's and a dozen SKS's in cosmoline. Now here we go again and I'm down to 2 AK's and an SKS. I guess now would be a good time to sell one of the AK's.

    Glass to Stiffen Stock - Fail

    I've had similar problems with Savage and Remington factory plastic stocks. I like to run some spring steel down into the bedding job. I cut mine from cattle panels.

    whats your favorite 220 swift recipe?

    My Swift just loves 34.0 grains of H4895 behind a Speer 52 grain honkin' HP #1035. Mild load and 1/2" groups at 100 yds. R-P cases and a Fed 210M and/or CCI BR2 for primer. Give it a try.

    Marlin 1895 help

    It sure looks like mine was burned in also. Well, I got the wood all prepped up and went to mix up my bedding compound (Brownell's Glasbed) and found it had already set up (mainly the hardener part) . Grrrr, I guess the shelf life of the dealers plus mine overlapped it's life expectancy. Guess...

    Marlin 1895 help

    There wasn't much holding it together. You can see where there had been what looked like an attempt to repair it before. The little piece that fits up into the reciever had some old glue holding it on as well as an attempt to squirt a bit into the crack. I'll clean it up and drill some oppossing...

    Marlin 1895 help

    I think I'm starting to understand what you mean. Break it on off and then bond the pieces back together? Is that correct? I've got acraglas and latex bands on hand. Heck, it's worth a shot.

    Marlin 1895 help

    rc, I'm pretty sure the crack is all the way through the grain. So deep in fact that it wouldn't take much effort to break it off. A better view from the top. It's a shame because it is pretty nice wood.

    Marlin 1895 help

    thanks rcm. I was hoping someone here might know if the 336 stock is compatible. That's what it looks like of course but the 1895 reciever is reportedly bigger (or so I've read). I got the sights resolved. I had a new Williams 5D in my goodies stash and got it mounted up and the front sight...

    Marlin 1895 help

    rcm, that's why I'm confused. The Brownell's link there shows the new style 1895. My rifle isn't designated with any letter G, GS, M, P or otherwise. My front sight is dovetailed into the barrel and those are all screwed in. Those buttstocks are all checkered or with pistol grips. Confusing huh?

    Marlin 1895 help

    I bought an old (1972) Marlin 1895 cal 45-70 that has a cracked rear buttstock from the tang screw down to the lever. It is the original straight style stock no checkering with the curved buttplate. It's also missing the rear sight elevator and appears that the front bead is slightly bent to the...

    Welcome Randy. So what are you gonna be cranking out there? Like some others have mentioned you'll be needing more space and more toys. I'm in the process of putting a new top on my reloading bench so I'll have more room. Have fun and keep us posted. slabhead

    Another "Looking for a handgun for my wife" posting.

    My wife actually wanted the Bersa Thunder 380 after shooting a friend of hers. I researched the gun and found it to be an excellant weapon. I'm a Glock man myself but that little Bersa has turned out to be a fine gun. I can't reload for her fast enough. Not one single jam or problem with it...

    CA gun show attracted 400K, more than any other in the US.

    I went to the Big D gun show in Mesquite (Dallas suburb) and it was freakin packed on Saturday. There was a line waiting to get in several hundred feet long when I got there that morning. The prices were out of sight on most things, very few bargains for the items I was interested in. It was the...

    9mm in Glock 17, Titegroup, Lone Wolf Barrel

    I had a Sigma 40F that would smear them like that too, even with factory rounds (especially the Blazer aluminums). Doesn't look so much like excessive pressure but you are running them on the hot side. My Glock 27 will do that with stout loads. Like it's cycling the action before the firing pin...
