Re: Time for a new beam scale, suggestions welcome. RCBS 10-10 scale has always worked for me. I saw one on ebay, buy it now price of $70.

Re: recomend a good bullet puller +1 for RCBS collet style bullet puller. I have never had a problem damaging bullets. I had an impact puller but it always damaged the bullet nose. I have bought several different collets for different calibers. Now, I just make my own collets. I even made a...

Re: Soft jaws for lathe I use small strips of brass or aluminum. About the size of the jaw contact area. I use double sided tape to hold in place. I have used the same pieces for several years now. I just remove the tape when it is no longer sticky and reuse.

I just bought a Mark 1, 45 Win Mag with a 6 1/2" barrel. Anyone have experience with this gun. I know ammo will be a problem, but I plan to reload. So, reloading data favorites would be welcome.

Re: Dial and Test Indicators I like the following: 1. Brown and Sharpe Best Test .0005, .015 travel either direction and 1 1/4 inch dial; for indicating centers of holes and indicating vise on mill 2. Interapid .0005 with .030 travel either direction for general indicating on mill. 3...

Re: Ruger Super Redhawk 44 magnum Thanks Bigwheeler, I will check my scope mounts. I don't shoot a pistol that much. I am fairly certain that I will never shoot 3000 rounds thru this gun, but I wish that I had that much spare time. Too many irons in the fire I suppose.

Re: Ruger Super Redhawk 44 magnum Thanks again Steve. Sounds like this load is working good for you. I was thinking about sighting mine at 75 yds but I may just follow your lead and go out to 100 yds. Thanks for all the information.

Re: Ruger Super Redhawk 44 magnum Thanks Steve, sounds good. How many ft/sec are you shooting? If it is sighted in at 100yds, how high is it shooting at 25, 50, and 75 yds? I appreciate the info. Good looking set up. I have a front rest just like yours. I hope to be doing as well soon.

Re: Ruger Super Redhawk 44 magnum Thanks everyone. I had been thinking about 240 gr. But we do have some hogs and bears have been seen getting closer and closer. Last ones that I heard about were about 60 to 70 miles east of where I hunt. So perhaps I should think about some 300+ gr. I will...

Re: Ruger Super Redhawk 44 magnum Thanks everyone, I plan to check into all of this and do a variety of loads. And see what works best for me. So far, I have been shooting some factory 44 mag rounds. I have been very surprised with how little recoil there is. Looking forward to loading some...

Re: Carry gun - Your thoughts? I normally carry my Kahr PM45. I carry an extra clip when possible. If the little Kahr cannot be concealed then I carry my North American Arms 22 mag revolver. I like the Kahr for the following reasons: 1. 45 for the knockdown 2. Double action only for round in...

Re: Pics of new home shop. Tell your wife if she wants to move, that you want a house with a small shop behind the house. Nice looking setup, be careful with the oven. Best of luck.

Re: Ruger Super Redhawk 44 magnum I hadn't even considered beyond 100 yds. I was thinking between 50 and 100. This will be mainly for a backup while hunting with rifle or crossbow. Thanks for the info, I will check into locating some bullets. Other info would be welcome.

Looking for helpful information about some of the following: 1. Best distance to sight in scope 2. Favorite loads for hunting 3. Favorite loads for target shooting I just got this gun and I am new to large handguns. It has a 9 1/2" barrel and Leupold 4X scope. Any advice would be appreciated.

Re: Gun Safe Recomendations I recently bought a Fat Boy Jr. It is a Liberty safe. I prefer a manual combination over a digital. It is not the best safe. But for the money, it was the best buy I could find. I got it for $900 plus tax. It weighs about 800 lbs. And my brother and I unloaded it...

Re: Kit reloading .50 I have a Lee as well. I may step up to a RCBS in the future, but for now I will make the Lee work. I could not find a bullet puller to fit the Lee, so I made one. It works real well. It screws into the press and uses a collet just like my smaller RCBS puller.

Re: Remington mod 700 LTR 308 I shot the LTR today. First time I shot a 1/4" moa group. I have not had any of the problems mentioned above. It may not be a custom rifle but it is any excellent shooter. It is mine now and I am looking forward to shooting it again soon. I will have to load up...

Re: Remington mod 700 LTR 308 I hope is a good gun. I have wanted a good 308. I am going to shoot it tomorrow. It is supposed to be grouping real well. I will see. Sounds like the tigger is not the best, anyother information would be appreciated.

I am interesed in a Remington 700 LTR 308. I am interested in people's opinion of this rifle. It has a Leupold mark 4 on it already. Nice looking gun, just curoius about accuracy and reliablity.

Re: Action vise and wrench I made my barrel vise and my receiver wrench. I used drawings in a barrel fitting book I purchsed.
