    Older Reloading Manuals

    Has the fear of being sued effected reloading manuals? I bought today a new Sierra manual Version 5 4th printing and some of the "maximum" loads looked a bit light to me. I checked my Version 2 (1978) Sierra manual and for the same bullet (SMK 168) and same powder (RL15) there is 1.5 grains...

    40-XRBR KS compare to the older 40x

    I just saw a current remington custom shop 40-XRBR KS in 22lr and was curious as to how it relates to the older 40x 22lrs . Anyone have one? Also. Why was the sako finnfire range discontinued? It looks like such a sweet BR .22lr machine.

    Maggie’s Wisdom of An Older Man

    An older man approached an attractive younger woman at a shopping mall. 'Excuse me; I can't seem to find my wife. Can you talk to me for a couple of minutes?' The woman, feeling a bit of compassion for the old fellow, said, 'Of course, sir. Do you know where your wife might be?' 'I have...

    McMillan Actions (Older Models)

    Looked at a used left handed McMillan Signature Rifle in .338WM today. It had to be an early model. It didnt have the M logo but rather just had McMillan Firearms and the city in block letters on the right side of the action. It had a smooth bolt (not fluted) with a remington looking knob. The...

    Maggie’s Older women

    I ended up with an older woman at a club last night. She looked pretty good for a 60-year-old. In fact, she wasn't too bad at all, and I found myself thinking that she probably had a really hot daughter. We drank a bit, and we had a bit of a snuggle, and she asked if I'd ever had a Sportsman's...
