    Sidearms & Scatterguns My first Glock, maybe.

    I have become fond of communing with nature while carrying a carbine and a sidearm humping a crap ton of ammo at a full sprint in the Oklahoma summer. Been doing it with a 1911 and I am getting sick of carrying all the mags I need to keep the thing fed. So, I am ready to break down and buy me a...

    Hunting & Fishing Smokeless muzzleloader Good or Bad?

    Re: Smokeless muzzleloader Good or Bad? I have a TC and can hit in a 5 inch circle at 300 yards with it on a boringly consistent basis. I can not tell you if it would be worth the money, but where I hunt and how I hunt old smokey is more than sufficient.

    Hornady Match 168 and CFE

    Caught short again. No time to do any testing due to my forgetful head. Anyone used the CFE with the Hornady 168 Match yet? If not I'll be OK, but would love to have nice area to look at when I start loading this evening.

    Gas Gun pressure signs

    Scale holding zero.

    Re: Scale holding zero. OP here. Well, I pulled one round of each three round loading to check and see what was good and what was not. It seems that my Lyman stayed zeroed for 8 rounds and that is where it drifted off (or close to round 8)its first 0.1gr. After that it appears that the...

    Scale holding zero.

    I own a Lyman 1500 scale. I set it up and turned it on yesterday morning. This evening I ran through the calibration and then zeroed it. I started loading rounds for a ladder test on three different 223's. Thirteen rounds per gun were loaded for a total of 39 rounds. It took me about an...

    Rifle Scopes FNAR 20 MOA options

    Vortex PST 4x16 going on top of a FNAR. The mounted rail on the FNAR is radiused to fit the receiver so a flat rail is not an option as a replacement and I do not what the radius is to try one made for a different firearm. My Google and forum searches have not led me to an obvious option of...

    Lock n Load inserts

    I ordered a Hornady Lock N Load conversion for my Rockchucker. I was wondering about the repeatability of dies mounted in the LnL bushings?

    Any luck with CFE in a 308 gas gun?

    Re: Any luck with CFE in a 308 gas gun? I am going to run 175 SMK's, at least that is the plan. I have shot up all my oddball stuff, I may need to stock back up on some different bullet weights again. Loading this up for a FNAR. I have owned it a couple of months now and still have not even...
