Looks like the main difference would be one is stainless steel and the other is not.
How often are you really going to be shooting at 1000 yards?
I would go with a short action caliber unless you're going to be shooting at animals at that distance. Which would be sort of careless with a...
Ouch. I had a 3" talo with the unfluted cylinder. Traded it off for who knows what. The lesson here is if you have a sweet S&W, keep it. It always seems to be the 357's too.
586 L-comp was also a pretty sweet setup.
I've sold many firearms on this site. No lie, look at my profile.
I always eat the shipping cost and just ask for what I think the gun is worth. Sometimes I'll get someone from my state that wants to do a FTF. In that case I'll usually do 50$ less then my asking price because that's what I...
Keep the Savage as is and order a full custom the way you want.
A carbon steel action with an extractor you can pop out with your finger will not suite you well for the rest of your life.
You could get into a GAP Non-Typical with a McMillan for around 3500 and be done with it.
STOP, JUST STOP
If you've started reloading since sandy hook then you're part of the problem. If you're in the gun store every week looking for ammo/supplies then you're part of the problem. If you're willing to pay absurd amounts of $$$ then you're part of the problem. If you're buying...
If you don't like the current ammo situation then stop buying ammo.
People still finding ammo at their local stores and then selling it online for twice the price are the real issue.
If you're considering selling it, now would be the time to do it.
I also dislike shooting AR's and pretty much every other semi auto center fire. They ding up your brass and you need to cut the balls off the cartridge to either fit in a mag or accommodate a gas system.
For example: the...
If your budget is only 300 then put all of that into a rifle scope (take your pick, it doesn't matter at that price point). Vortex would be a good choice since they are fellow Wisconsinites.
You've bought a 6 pound magnum hunting rifle and it will be unpleasant to shoot more than a few...
The Message I got from Federal:
Matt,
They are different both in cup thickness and primer mix charge. You would see pressure spikes and also have a chance of misfires due to the cup thickness.
Thanks

I did not ask if they were the same as a magnum pistol primer but I'm...
As for using magnum small pistol primers with 2400, here's an interesting post I just found.

Actually looks like the magnums yield a little less velocity but it's pretty marginal.
Anyone see issues with using the above in 357 mags? Powder would be 2400, bullet would be a Missouri Bullet 158 swc.
I've done some digging and discovered a thread on the S&W forum where a guy spoke to a CCI rep who told him there is absolutely no difference between their small pistol and...
