    22-250 with bull barrel 1 in 9

    Re: 22-250 with bull barrel 1 in 9 I have Winchester action with a Bartlein 1-9 screwed onto it chambered in 22-250. As of now I have a little over 1000 rounds through the tube. I haven't seen a drop off in accuracy yet. I am pushing the 75 AMAX through it and it hammers. Love this gun...

    G*D D*M& crimped primers

    Re: G*D D*M& crimped primers I agree, it is a PITA to remove. I know that some people use a case mouth chamfer to remove the crimp, if your desperate try that.

    H4831 and H4831sc

    Don't want to assume anything, especially when it comes to reloading-so can one use reloading data interchangeably between these two powders? Do they produce the same pressure/burn rate? I just want to be on the safe side of things. Thanks for the help.

    Gunsmithing Tightening up a compact 1911

    Just wanting to know if there are any kits out there that will allow someone to tighten up a officers model 1911. I have a Citadel 1911 that does not have the barrel bushing. I looked on EGW but honestly do not know what I am looking for. Any help as to if this can be done would be greatly...

    Rifle Scopes Falcon Menace. Any luck with those???

    Re: Falcon Menace. Any luck with those??? I agree with the above posts. Save your money, and get something that is a little higher quality. I have had mine for 2 years and really haven't had any problems with it, but like mentioned above it doesn't have the most forgiving eye box, and my...

    tubb firing pin and cocking piece...

    Re: tubb firing pin and cocking piece... I had to use the new cocking piece on my Winchester because the original piece broke. Figured I might as well get the firing pin as well if I was replacing the cocking piece. Other than breaking the original piece, I would have never bought the new...

    Gunsmithing .45 guru's

    Re: .45 guru's Gonna tinker with seating depth and crimp first. If she still isn't locking up after that then I'll have to look at polishing some parts. Thanks for the suggestions fellas.

    Gunsmithing .45 guru's

    Re: .45 guru's It will lock up w/o ammo, with factory ammo, must be my ammo. I am going to check the seating depth again, and check the chamber for built up crud. Thanks for the suggestions.

    Gunsmithing .45 guru's

    Question for the .45 pistol gurus: Was at the indoor range last night and noticed that my .45 acp would not lock up into battery completely. I load my own rounds. I use R-P brass trimmed to SAMMI specs, a 200 gr SWC Suter's Choice lead bullet and 4.0 grains of Bullseye. Brass is virgin...

    Another Enfield. Because I felt sorry for it.

    Re: Another Enfield. Because I felt sorry for it. Good save, the picture of the rifle when you first bought it looks terrible. Like you said, Bubba got to it.

    Suppressors In the market...

    Re: In the market... I guess I'm too late to chime in. Magnum Research is making a decent gun. Barrel fit on the one I handled wasn't quite to my satisfaction but it surely would have held 3" groups or better at 25 yds. The STI, while I haven't handled it, is built damn well. And that's...

    Suppressors In the market...

    Re: In the market... Update: I went ahead and bought a Citadel Compact. Shot it last night, and realized that I cannot hit the broadside of a barn. I was shooting indoors, 50ft, with Win Clean 230 gr. Need more practice to say the least. Hoping once it gets broke in a little more and...

    Suppressors In the market...

    Re: In the market... I looked at the Magnum Research model online. Haven't found one in any of the shops. One of my main questions I guess, after I am learning more about these pistols, is what type of things should I be looking for when it comes to finish and fit?

    Suppressors In the market...

    for my first 1911. Don't want to break the bank. Budget is around 600. I've looked at the Springfields, Kimbers are out of my range, and handled a Legacy Sports 1911. I want something that is going to be well made (does that go hand in hand with my budget ) and reliable. This pistol will be...
