I recently added a FRT to the mix, ooooh boy, my ammo consumption just went way up! I'm thinking about it. Which did you go with? I'm favoring the ARC-Fire. I got the Partisan Disruptor. It's a true drop in with no modification to the gun. Mine would function with 223 ammo with a standard carbine b...

I have several AR's in various caliber and setups. Some scoped, some red dots, some iron sighted. I shoot one or more of them on almost a weekly basis. More than I shoot leverguns. I know, shame on me!

As Team Leader for our Church Security I have been stressing over this. I added an extra post for each service today, and I carried significantly more firepower than usual. You know there are sleeper cells amongst us. When will they activate, and what will they target?

TedH

Thanks fellas!

TedH

Very nice! I have had similar results with the 125 gr Speer TNT.

TedH

Wow! Even the regular price on the Longshot was a steal!

I placed my order for this mold for my 131 year old 1894, 38-55 on December 29th with the current wait time of 8 weeks. Well looky what showed up early. Every time I buy mold from Accurate, I'm impressed with their quality and workmanship. I ordered this to drop bullets .382" so I can size them...

TedH

Yep, that one was pretty good.

TedH

I thought you were going to say my wife admits I'm right about something!

TedH

That's a beauty, congratulations!

TedH these will be going in a Japchester 92 Im picking up soon. Twist I believe for these is 1:26. A little better than my Rossi at 1:30,

You should be ok then. I believe my B92 has a slooowww 1-38 twist.

TedH

My Browning 92 won't stabilize 300 gr bullets even at full charge. You may want to verify your twist rate will handle them.

Kel Tec is enough of a stand up company that they will make this better In the future -- i would say --- that $147 would be better off putting towards just buying a Glock 42, 43, 26 or whatever I do have that size of carry gun covered. With the P32 I was wanting the smallest, and lightest gun possi...

TedH

I was pretty pleased with my recent purchase of the little Kel-Tec P32. I won an auction on Gunbroker that I thought everyone but me forgot about, because I only paid $147 for the gun that the seller stated only had 1 box of ammo shot through it. After shipping and tax I was still in it under 2 Benj...

Baby Sarah was born November 15th at 29 weeks. She weighed just 1 pound, 15 ounces. I'm thrilled to report she's now 5.5 pounds and looking like she'll be coming home this weekend! Its been a long, tiring adventure in the NICU for our son and daughter in law, but they are on cloud 9 with her!

TedH

I finally got to shoot my new P32. I ran a full box of FMJ through it, and two mags of Buffalo Bore with zero hiccups. It was surprisingly snappy, even with the ball ammo. A couple more boxes with that kind of performance and I'll be confident in it.

TedH

I'd say you're on the right track. You can find a used Leupold 1-4×20 on ebay. I wouldn't be opposed to a 2-7×32 either. Both will get the job done and look good doing it. I have a Nikon Monarch 2-7×32 on my Marlin 336ER, and it makes good looking package.

2014 Raptor that I've owned for about 3 years. I looked all over the midwest and ended up driving a few hundred miles to Kentucky to buy this one. I couldn't afford a new one and wouldn't want a new one if I could. 2014 was the last year they put the 6.2 V8 in them. A V6 in a Raptor just ain't right...

I'm friends with him on Facebook. I believe he is doing OK.

The P-32 is a handy pistol. But, the rimlock issue is very real. I used the following link to alter my magazines to stop the rimlock issue. http://www.1bad69.com/keltec/flyerwire.htm Thanks for this information. I have picked up a box of Buffalo Bore and have 300 rounds of FMJ and 50 HP coming from...

TedH

I just saw that Buffalo Bore offers a 75 gr. hard cast FN load advertised at 1150 fps. That may well be the best option here. This is what Tim says about it. "This 32 ACP+P ammo will better all American made 32 ACP+P ammo by 110 fps to 150 fps with a heavier bullet than any other American made ...

TedH

I just bought a Keltec P32, 32 acp pocket pistol for a price too cheap to pass up. Mainly for deep concealment situations, and as a backup to my regular carry gun. This is my first 32 acp, so I've been reading about the best choices for SD ammo. It seems most recommended FMJ in these tiny guns to en...

Winter sunsets are the best. We had a good one here tonight as well but I was driving and couldn't get a pic.

TedH

In case you have not heard of them, I wanted to let you know about a great deal on bullets for reloading from RMR, Rocky Mountain Reloading. I have made a few orders from them in the past and I was recently looking for inexpensive jacketed bullets for loading 9mm, and 357 Sig. I ordered their 124 gr...

TedH

Still praying!

TedH

Thanks Bill. Just last week I started looking at the smallest pocket guns again.

TedH

Great buck, and great rifle! Congrats!

TedH

My experience with FTX bullets and similar has shown them to be violent expanders. I think in your case the impact velocity may be lower than what the bullet was designed for. Higher velocity with a 250 gr bullet may give you better results.

TedH

Love this @TedH --- were pretty close to the same age i think from your posts and you being a grandpa is really cool --- and your little granddaughter maybe small now -- but she will catch up Awesome all the way around and a real positive Christmas season story now I'm 55.

How is our little lever-gunner doing Ted? She is doing great! As of this morning she is up to 3 lb 3 oz. She is exceeding the doctors expectations on a regular basis. We have not been able to see her due to restrictions put on visitors because a flu outbreak. They are expecting to be able to bring ...

TedH

I have a box of those also gifted to me by a fellow Levergunner. I have only loaded them in 44 Spl.

I have had an old Savage 410/22 for a while and found it to be great fun for small game. The only downside to the Valmet 412 is the weight. With the combo barrels and scope its exactly 9 pounds.

TedH

When it bought my Valmet 412 I was mainly buying it for the 375 Winchester barrels, but it also came with 30-06 and 12 ga doubles too. I was lacking a set of combination barrels though, so I ended up buying another Valmet 412 that had a set of 12 ga/223 Remington with scope and mount. I put the 30-0...

Our youngest son and his wife were expecting their first child with a due date of January 31st. Three weeks ago there were complications and baby Sarah decided it was time to meet everyone at just 28 weeks. After an emergency C section in the middle of the night, she was here just like that. 1 pound...

TedH

It sounds like the company went above and beyond to satisfy the customer. Yet the customer expected more, unreasonably, IMO, and still felt the need to try and drag the company through the mud because their tantrum didn't have the desired ending.

My wife bought me this Christmas shirt last year.

I haven't used a 223 on deer, but last year I used my 25-45 Sharps to cleanly harvest a nice buck. The 25-45 is just a 223 necked up to 25 caliber. I used a 80 gr Barnes TTSX at over 3,000 fps. After seeing how it performed I wouldn't hesitate to use a 60 gr 223 at reasonable ranges.

I wish I had got the shingles vaccine. I had an attack of that stuff that started Nov. 5th. I had severely underestimated how bad it could be. I'm still hurting from it, and apparently it can last several weeks to months. Hope you get better soon, Ted. For as bad as the shots were (for me, think a ...

Those prices are a bargain these days. I paid $80 for a pound of RL7, and was happy to have found it.

We are hosting this year for the first time, since the mother in law passed earlier this year. House full of blessings to be thankful for. Happy Thanksgiving to all.

My recent purchase of the Valmet double rifle came with 375 Wn, 30-06, and 12 ga. barrels. I would really like to add a set of combination barrels in 12 ga/222 or 12 ga/22 Savage HP. Nearly impossible to find in the US, but I found a place in Canada that has several options at a really good price. T...

Happy Birthday, Riflemen!

Since these will only be used in my double, I won't need to worry about the noses being flat.

This is most interesting. The possibility of using longer, heavier pointed bullets is intriguing. I have made dummy conversation pieces with 270 gr. spitzers and they are unique looking. We are thinking the same thing. I put together a dummy round with a 270 gr Hornady RN to see if it chambers ok, ...
