Nice !!!!! I'll give you four bucks for those!!

milton

Thanks for all the help!! I will give Boggs Tools a call and see what they can do!

milton

Thanks everybody! I have used sulfuric acid to do what you all describe and it does refresh the files but I was hoping someone actually used a file re-furbishing service to return the file to the way it was when new,if that is even possible!

milton

I recently inherited some old tools which included some older dirty files that were U.S. made.I would like to have these files returned to sharpness as I hate to waste good tools.Anyone here use a file sharpening company and if so how were the resultant files?

milton

If the dust is brown you probably have a piece of limonite or goethite.The picture looks like limonite.

milton

You better do some searching concerning this! To the best of my knowledge Windows 10 is free for a while ,then after a trial you have to pay!

milton

CRS,
Thank you! I did not mean to hijack this thread ,I was just curious!

milton

crs,curious about the fore stock on that '92,can you give a little bit of guidance?
Thank You!

milton

Thank you very much! I was not warned about the effect on my septic system!!!!

milton

I was given a bottle of Scrub-Stat 2%(Chlorhexidine gluconate) to use before surgery and was told to throw away what I did not use;other that safety concerns why would they tell me to throw it away?Would there be a good reason to keep the remainder for any future skin injury?Just curious.

milton

Do you have any photos?I would love to see a collectible greywacke and the green argillite really sounds interesting! I guess you know that argillite has been used by native peoples for polished stone tools and weapons producing both a smooth physically attractive tool but one also capable of holdin...

John,What Elmer suggested is what I have done in the past.Take a look at this site to see what is produced in the combustion of black powder :http://www.compoundchem.com/2014/07/02/the-chemistry-of-gunpowder/ . The main problem product is potassium carbonate.You can also look up the chemical propert...

milton

Thank you for the reply and to answer your question I have tried what you are talking about and it works,uh sorta.If you load the 115 grain cast bullet I am loading in a 327 Fed case you have a 'combustion chamber" that has a length of 0.835 inches.If I take that same bullet and load it into a ...

milton

BAGTIC,to tell you the truth I am not looking for any particular velocity with my 115 gr. and 100 gr. bullets I just would like to see the cartridge loaded to its true potential.I am not suggesting anyone else do this especially in some of the H&R revolvers but in my case I have a Single-Six tha...

milton

I tried to find some Norma R123 and so far I can find none! I have been told that the powder has been discontinued but someone is bound to have some.

milton

Thank you very much! nice photo!!!

milton

If you don't mind show a photo of the Webley from the side.I would like a better look at the shotgun you have.

milton

I don't like the cold and I hate snow,at least that much but beautiful country for sure!

milton

Thank you for the response! I have loaded the 115 grain cast bullets longer and taper crimped them but I really want to keep the pressure just below the .357 mag numbers.I am still working on some data I received and when I get range time I will post my findings.

milton

I do not remember where I found this site but if you need a lot of information concerning smokless powders go to : http://www.ilrc.ucf.edu/powders/
Lots of useful information!

milton

Harry, The quoted load was tested some time ago by someone else .I just had access to their data on one load and that load is the one quoted.This fellow quoted I do not personally know so getting some more data would not be that easy and I definitely could not afford to have some loads tested myself...

milton

John,I am using Starline brass.I have seen some problems with the earlier federal brass but not with Starline.I have seen some loads other fellows loaded in .32 H&R in Starline brass that I would not attempt myself and though the loads measured 40,200 CUP !!!! the brass did fine . I have pushed ...

milton

The main reason for not changing the chambering is because I already have a bunch of 32 H&R brass and no 327 brass.R123,interesting,thank you for that.I am using H110 and 296 and yes without a compressed load the loads show very low pressure.I'll just give the chrony a try and see what I can wor...

milton

Thanks for the help! Presently the money is just not there to buy the software.My problem is I have a custom revolver with a Bowen cylinder in 32 H&R.I do not desire to re-chamber to 327.The revolver will load and shoot at pressures exceeding quoted pressures and do it safely but I would like to...

milton

I know this is not a lever gun question but I have noticed that some of you are experienced with the noted program.I am wanting to work up some load data for a Ruger revolver in 32 H&R but in pressure ranges exceeding the 21,000 CUP figure quoted so often.My question is two fold,first will the q...

milton

Just out of curiosity,what is that odd looking tree behind you?

milton

Between the two the .38 special wins hands down!You can load it up or down in power and bullet weight.Brass is usually easy to come by.Folks say the .327 is "better" that the .38 ,it may be but with a lot of muzzle blast that the .38 does not have..38 bullets come in various flavors from 7...

milton

Thank you very much !!!

milton

It sounds like a winner with the flake powders and handgun loads,which is what I would use the measure for!Thank you! Now if it would throw 800-x loads uniformly that would be just perfect!

milton

I found this older post and just had to ask if the Harrell measure works well with flake powders like Unique?Is it better than a Redding measure? And I just have to ask,will it meter 800-x well?

milton

Thank you for the load data,I am shooting pretty much what you are and I have also found out my rifle really likes the 140 grain XTP's.

milton

Nath I may have missed it,what load are you using for that shooting?I would like to try it in my Winchester.

milton

Just so you know------http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SS_Leopoldville_%281929%29

milton

Sorry,I didn't understand it was factory stuff!

milton

Not to "steal the thunder" concerning your new Glock but I will say you are a more brave man than me.If I find loaded ammo at the range or anywhere I will not shoot it in my gun.I will break it down and use the components but I have already seen a damaged revolver from pick up rounds that ...

milton

Had that happen to me,I used super glue but be sure to use the prescribed spacers!

milton

Good ole Cloverine Salve;it'll cure anything!!!!!!

milton

I tried the Merit,it works at the range and after you get it set up but a piece or two of black tape on your glasses with a small hole in it works much better in the field.The only real advantage of the Merit was the ability to change the size of the hole under various light conditions.

milton

Thank you very much ! I am already walking fast pace 2 miles a day but I need to get my upper body strength back and get to where I can push the push mower without having muscle spasms.I will see what I can do.

milton

You really sound like you know what you are doing,what about someone that is 66 and has a bad back?I only have a very few free weights and it has been ages since I "lifted weights".Any ideas?

milton

I will try real hard ,thank you much !!

milton

Thank you very much for a very beneficial post.Could this be interpolated into revolver data and problems with powder position?

milton

Any of you fellows use Australian Dream? I have bouts of arthritis some times and this stuff really helps! It too is a topical treatment.

milton

Whinny?!!!

milton

Thank you very much!I just hate to hurt!!!

milton

I am having some muscle pain problems in my right side and I would like to know if I can use DMSO to help the pain and if there are any problems I can expect.

milton

When I finish shooting my revolvers I spray them down with Ballistol,wait 30 minutes and then using a nylon brush on the forcing cone area , cylinder and bore I clean the revolver.All I use anymore is Ballistol. Great stuff!

milton

Looks like the rifle and you sorta fit! Great shooting!

milton

Great to see!!! Yep looks just like mine and it too is a joy to shoot!!Good to see that you got it and that you enjoy it and can use it!!

milton

Peep sights,that L-O-N-G sight radius works great for me.
