Does the C&R license holder have to sign for the firearm delivery or can any adult at the residence sign the acceptance from FedEx? So far, I've always been there to receive them but I may miss the next one. I've never been asked to show my license, so the delivery driver probably doesn't...

I know little about knives. How do these stack up? The Kershaw Klash. $23 at Amazon or the Gerber 22-47162? $28 at Amazon I've also looked at the Kershaw Ken Onion Leek at the $40 level. Would these all be considered too cheaply constructed for everyday use? Any other suggestions...

I have a stock cleaning question. The wood from our carbine would bleed oil every time it was in the sun. I've had it (just the wood) in a garbage bag full of driveway oil-sorbant in the attic for a little over a month. If the oil is through bleeding, what's the best way to clean it up...

I have a HRA M1 that I got from the CMP several years ago. It came with all HRA parts except the stock and trigger group. I traded for a HRA stock shortly after getting it. I never thought a whole lot about the trigger group because I really like the trigger it has for shooting. But now I'm...

I posted this on another forum and haven't received any response. My appologies in advance if you've seen this before... This muzzle-loading shotgun was a wall hanger at my wife's grandparents house for as long as she can remember. I don't know if it was ever used by anyone in her family for...

Does Redding have a site for downloading their product manuals? I couldn't find anything at Redding-Reloading other than their product catalog unless I just missed it. I'd call them, but am out of the country right now and usually asleep during their normal business hours. I'm looking for a...

Is anyone here having sauces running TAC through their Lyman 55 powder measure. I've run at least a dozen pounds of IMR 4320 and H 4985 through this measure without a hitch and with +/- 0.1gr accuracy. It meters the TAC okay, but binds up pretty bad on this small grained powder. I'm going to...

Can anyone tell me where to find a vest similar to what the gentleman in the photo is wearing? It has loops to hold about a box of shells and several pockets for empty hulls. No game bag on the back. I've looked online at Cabela's and Gander Mountain and don't see anything similar...

When was the last time someone here received CCI primers from Grafs? I ordered CCI large rifle Apr 6 and am (almost) patiently waiting... I don't want to call them yet because I'm sure they get too many calls about primer backorders as it is. I figured if we could keep a running update going...

I have a couple of quick questions regarding my 1991A1 (series 80, of course). First, I haven't been able to locate a replacement (spare) extractor for this matte stainless gun. Anybody seen one listed anywhere? Also, Does anyone know if the Metalform 7-rnd carbon steel flat-follower...

When you buy cast bullets is the advertised weight supposed to indicate the weight of the lubed bullet? Or is is the weight of the cast bullet before being lubed? I see folks making their own that mention molds dropping bullets at a certain weight and I'm assuming they mean as-cast and not after...

In war one and maybe war two they used machine guns fed by rounds on cloth belts. How was the round stripped out of the belt? Was the belt ripped as the cartridge was pushed forward or was the round somehow pulled back out of the belt before being fed to the chamber? This inquiring mind wants to...

I sent the paperwork in for my C&R license on 3-August and haven't heard anything from them. What is the "normal" wait time? Should I try contacting BATF? Thanks!

Loaded 20 with 200gr JSP bullets over 39gr of H4895. My lee Modern Reloading (1996) shows a load range of 36.9 to 41.0 grains for this combination. The 39.0 grains I used is a compressed load and I'm not entirely sure 41 grains would even fit in the case. What gives? I wasn't anticipating this...

I'm looking for data for 300gr cast bullets in .45 Colt at standard pressures. Only one of my manuals lists a 300gr load and that is for a Sierra jacketed bullet. What I've seen in my manuals is that charge ranges are nearly the same for cast and jacketed bullets for Unique powder and that the...

Forgive me if this has been discussed before, but I couldn't find it in a search. While googling "beretta chamber support" before helping a friend reload for his Beretta .40 S&W I came across this article. Endresen v. Beretta USA Corporation. Seems some yahoo was out riding around one night...

A few weeks ago I loaded some .44mag with 26.5 grains of W296 under a 200grain XTP. The loadbook I was using, Speer #9 (1974), gave a range of 25.2 to 27.2 so I though I was okay. Since then I've picked up a Lyman Pistol and Revolver Handbook, Third edition, and it's telling me that the minimum...

I have a Chief's Special and a OWB holster. I'd like to get a grip that's a little bigger than the factory wood. I've been looking at the Uncle Mike'S Boots. Are they too sticky to wear under an untucked shirt? I've read here that cloth can ride up on rubber grips and cause problems with...

In case anyone was wondering.... I emailed Hodgdon today to ask if H110 and W296 were the same. The reply I received a couple hours later from their Customer Satisfaction Manager was short and to the point.

In a .44mag I loaded 26.5gr of WW296 under a Hornady 200gr JHP. Now I wonder what kind of velocity to expect. My Lee (1st ed.) Shows 27gr of H110 to give a 210gr bullet a velocity of 1848fps at 36,000CUP. My Speer Number Nine shows 27.2gr of WW296 to push a 200gr JHP to only 1493fps. Given...
