Across the years I have upgraded from the Sierra 4th to the 5th editions, and just recently bought the Sierra 6th Edition Reloading Manual. I have to say I'm dissatisfied with the manual. I do not care for the new layout, or the new fonts. But most of all, some of the data has me questioning...

Now is not the time to relax. Now is the time to start working on a new “Veterans’ Heritage Firearms Act” This legislation would provide amnesty for veterans who served overseas before 1968 in which these veterans would be able to register “take home” firearms that would fall under National...

Cabelas had an "after hours party" last nite, and a lot of Cabelas associates were on the floor, so I could really take my time comparing Vortex vs. Leupold. Steiner was not represented. Although the binos were w/o reticle, I was just looking at the glass. For myself and the g/f, the Vortex beat...

Thank you for trying to help Manny. Not interested in a monocular or a laser, but thanks nonetheless. :)

Without even demanding to know the use of the binoculars, they can reasonably be compared on the power, assembly, lens clarity, focusing, and for these .mil-tactical; on the reticle including the reticle stadia.

OH DARN! I shouldn't have mentioned what I wanted the optic for . . that pushed the thread off on an unnecessary tangent! :( OK, I'm going to get a 10x Tactical - Military model binocular. I edited my OP and now let's forget my WHY. seesh!! :rolleyes: Please focus on the GLASS and/or...

Hello; I'm looking to buy a 10x Tactical - Military model binocular that provides very good optics with the added benefit of range finding capability in a reasonably compact package. I've narrowed the field to 3 entries. They are all reputable binocular manufacturers. The problem is, that...

These aren't iron/steel core bullets like some European rounds, are they? Has anyone done a 'magnet test' on the Yavex 115 or 124gr rounds?

Disclaimer: I understand what amateur reloaders call “Burn Rate Chart” is not used by professional ballisticians to develop loads. I understand that really it is just a general guideline showing "Relative Quickness." That being said. . . . Have you noticed that since Winchester/Olin sold...

I believe the Lee instructions call for running a pound of powder through the measure to coat it with graphite. A lot of work. First, try I would wipe down all the surfaces with a dryer sheet. Inside and out, including the disc holes. The depth of the die in the turret controls how far the...

BUMP for the weekend crew. :)

AABEN; Has anybody come across, or determined themselves, any evidence that supports the manufacturer's claim that the Win 748 powder burns cooler and preserves barrel life?

Hello! First, I know there will be those that want me to dump these powders in favor of your favorite propellant, but please respect that's not what I'm going to do.. . . ;) I'm loading 69gr SMKs and in these days of restricted powder availability, I want to just discuss the two powders...

UPDATE & MY CONCLUSION I was not looking for an excuse to buy another pistol. I'll assure you, the "velveeta steel" was an actual quote. Some may think I became overly apprehensive. But I needed to find if I was going to be able to trust my BHP now, and in the future. I see now I put too...

No, don't want an excuse to divorce the "Lady" I've kept with for 27 years. I just want to know she'll be healthy for the forseeable future. Any MkII BHP owners that want to chime in with round counts and maintenance schedules would keep me loyal. :)

That's an option. However, on the pistol-forum.com, they were attributing cracked barrel lugs to poor metallurgy. As written there: >>"My lack of confidence regarding the BHP's barrel service life comes from talking to enough folks I trust whose experience included not just factory barrels...

I could keep the Mk II Wow, I've had the pistol for many years But the negitive buzz I read has me genuinely concerned now about parts breakage in the gun. No where can I get a round count life estimate on the Mk II series or confirm or deny the criticisms of a short lifespan. MKII, or...

Hello everyone; First off, was that not a catchy title? I will explain it in a minute. I currently own a 1986 Browning Hi Power Mk II. I had it customized by Jim Garthwaite in 1999 with all the usual carry refinements. It has had a 18.5pd spring and buffer since ‘99. I do not shoot...

I will not argue that at a reasonable power, the variable can be quite useful. But against all common sense, one tends to dial up to the max, or dial up and down the range too often, fiddling with the scope instead of shooting better. I want to spend hard-earned cash on a scope of superior...
