    175gr PULLS: Jacket deformation question

    How bad is too bad dent/deformation wise? Times are tough. I can't imaging it being a real issue but wanted to get a consensus. Chambered barrels are not cheap or its a waste of my time to make poor performing ammo.

    Sidearms & Scatterguns Lone Wolf G17 Timberwolf Feedback

    I wanted to solicit any feedback on the Lone Wolf Timberwolf frame for a G17. The grip profile looks attractive to me. I can pick other handguns I favor however, being relatively late in adopting a Glock, after several thousand cheap target (mostly Blazer) rounds, it runs. If I could improve...

    I had a bought a rifle off SH for the AICS on another 40x/22lr project and decided to give the leftover barreled action a home.
