It has been my experience that none of the current viruses will work on Windows98 , and so there is no need to use an anti-virus program. This is another advantage to using an outdated OS.

If you have a source for 75 grain plain base, I'd love to have it.

Would a Marble brand tang sight be better?

I recently bought a Winchester model 1892 rifle in 25-20 that has been rebuilt. It came with a Lyman tang mounted peep sight. I think it is a Lyman #2 tang sight. I have used a peep sight on a 22LR target rifle, but this is the first time I have ever used a Lyman peep sight and so I don't know much ...

That and people back then knew that consistent granulation is the key to clean shooting and would re-corn their BP if necessary. I've brought it up before and done a bunch of testing to prove it... The cheap Chinese (Lidu) 3F I buy shoots cleaner than Swiss, if with a marginally lower velocity, bec...

If this is a vintage Lyman, old syle, tang sight and not the new production Lyman How do I tell if it is the old style or the new style? I also have a couple other quesitons about it. This is the first time I have owned a rifle with a tang sight and don't know much about them, but I think it may be...

I have a Winchester model 1892 rifle with a Lyman No. 2 tang sight installed. The sight has a ½" screw in aperture with a hole that measures .056. Is there anyplace I can buy an aperture for this sight with a smaller hole in it?

How much does an Ithaca model 49 weigh? I've been looking for a very lightweight 22 lever action.

Bureaucrats are the missing link in evolution; between the monkey and the man.

I have 2 Puma carbines in .38/.357

Do these rifles cycle 38 special ammo through the action ok?
I didn't think they would.

I find this thread fascinating. Its amazing how much money war costs.

I'm pretty sure the Chinese used visual signaling by flag and torch during combat hundreds of years before that.

In 1962 I saw a red wolf while hunting in a very large wooded area in eastern Iowa. It was the most regal and majestic wild animal I have ever seen. I figure it was probably the last wild wolf in Iowa because the government said they were extinct in this region by then. It was about 1/2 mile from th...

Who did you have tune up the gun and reline the barrel? I'm thinking about maybe having one done.

I used to have a 1894 trapper with 16 1/2" round barrel in 30-30 and I thought it kicked too hard. Something you might want to think about.

The heart and liver are my favorite parts. Chili is for the less desirable meat, not the choicest meat.

In 1964 while hunting on the family farm in east central Iowa, I saw a red wolf. It was probably the last wild wolf in Iowa, as they were supposed to be extinct in the midwest at that time. I have seen lots of coyotes and feral dogs, and this wolf did not look like or act like any of those. Its beha...

1964 was the year I saw a red wolf while I was squirrel hunting on the family farm. A sight I'll never forget.

Bill in Oregon, don't be discouraged. I think most people would be very happy if they could shoot a 3" group at 25 yards with a revolver. I have gotten to that stage in life where the sights are fuzzy and I can't shoot the tight groups I used to. Also because of serious health problems and chro...

look out hunters, in CA they used deer DNA to bust a poacher.

Please explain how they did this.
