I was cleaning my pick up out today and amid the Lab hair, sand, dirt, targets, ear plugs and assorted shooting gear I found some things I guess I really need. I try to carry some basic items just in case...... Jumper cables Leatherman multi-tool Surefire light Basic socket set with SAE and metric s...

I am going way out on a limb here, but I think JimT has lots of friends here who would want to know........

Jim's Mother went to be with the Lord last evening........it has been difficult for Jim's father also......please remember them in your prayers.........................................JJ

Bear, this is my home, this is the first page that comes up on my computer when it comes on. I don't know why you are so literal in all your posts. I have met lots of posters here, even hunted with a few, I consider all here of like mind thus friends. You too will find friends here if you tone it do...

Natchez has Federal white box .223 in stock now.....$13.99 per box

I was at the farm and my mother and I watched some of the media coverage regarding the mass shootings in the US and Germany. She looked at me and asked " did you ever want to shoot me or your dad " ? The question kinda shocked me, never having thought of harming my parents or friends. Then...

Ah......I think the jokes on us. This was made in 1887 I'm sure. But I think it was a post card sold to " tenderfeet " coming west who didn't know any better. Cameras in 1887 did not quick enough shutter speed to catch a wolf fighting a rope and not blur...after 132 years those cowboys are...

I called Starline today and they had 32 HR Mag brass, I ordered 1000 and they had plenty. The saleslady said they had other brass also. Maybe the panic buying is slowing down

I am rather fond of a Russian M 44 Carbine in 7.62,54R. I killed several nuisance bears, road damaged whitetail and groundhogs before I retired from the State Police and never found it lacking.................................JJ

Maybe Pres. Bush will present the CMH prior to the swearing in. I would be quite upset to get mine from Hussain. But I am still proud that the men are getting them.................JJ

Well now my test has been stolen :o . In the Winter issue of Guns of the Old West I found a write up of this very incident, the Hickok-Tutt shootout. It seems Dennis Adler wrote a story in which he re-created the shooting. He used a replica '51 Navy from The American Historical Foundation, about $20...

JJ_Miller

Well, you guys just made my wife happy. Now I need to find a Colts Dragoon :D . I have no real reason for trying to re-create this shot. As we were moving to the new house I came across some notes I had taken over the years as a member of our Dept. Shooting Review Board. I was thinking over some of ...

JJ_Miller

Thanks guys.....I'll give 'er a try.

Good to hear from you Jim, I've been moving and we are in the new house. When I find my little black book I'll give you a call..............JJ

JJ_Miller

Would anyone want to opine as to the type of bullet loaded in Wild Bill's '51 Navy when he made the 75 yrd shot across the town square, round ball or conical ? I have acquired a genuine Colt '51 Navy . It came with a mould for both round and conical bullets. I wonder which would have been more preva...

I picked up a 92 Win. in 32-20. When I ordered the rifle I didn't know it was a Limited Series, 1 of 500. I have #332. It is Jap made and my question is are these really that rare ? I want to shoot it ( thats why I bought it ) but I do not want to destroy a true collector rifle. My personal feeling ...

JJ_Miller

As this is basically a 6.5x55 in a different form it works very well. I have a Ruger in 260 that I bought from a blowhard on the Ruger Forum that kept saying it would not shoot. After I repaired all the damage he had done it, I put factory Remington 140's in it and it shot nice 1.3 to 1.5 inch group...

JJ_Miller

I have to agree, during my tenure at our State Police Academy as a Range Officer/Instructor I observed several city and county officers use the Bersa as a back up. They shot great from 25 yrds and NEVER saw one jam..ever. I cannot say the same for the Walther PPK, Glocks or an occasional Sig Sauer.....

JJ_Miller

Sorry This is JJ Miller, not J Miller. It ain't right to run poor ole' Joe down confusn' him with me

Back before I knew better I hunted in the snow and rain with my Dads Winchester. Its a '92 in 32-20, oct. barrel, factory tang sight and the serial number is ( I think, its kinda worn ) 3607. The steel is plum colored, the wood is good and the bore is mint. It will shoot nice round 3 inch groups at ...

JJ_Miller

I have never done it or anything but seems like I read somwheres that ifn' a feller takes a coarse mill bastard and files about a quarter inch off the nose of that GP11 ammo it explodes better than an A Max bullet on feral cats. Like I said I don't know first hand or nothin' cuz I 'm a wild house ca...

I just got off the phone with Samco Global, the original run of complete matching Schmidt Rubin K-31's is drawing to an end. They have a few left, but their new ad in Shotgun news offers matching bolt and receiver only. From now on the ad's will sell built up parts guns. The initial batch of K-31's ...

This may be old news, if so excuse me.......... I picked up the new ( to me at least ) Speer Loading Manual # 14. I was browsing through the handgun section first and on page 1009 in the 475 Linebaugh section there was JT posed with a rather large wild boar, the caption led one to beleive that JT ha...

Sorry its took so long to get back to this topic. Yes, you were correct in the murder of the preacher, and the other theft took place in Panther State Park, McDowell Co. They made off with a pre-64 Super Grade 30-06 and two .22 Browning rifles.....................JJ

JJ_Miller

Its always something new......... Twice within the last week there has been firearms stolen on public ranges here ( WV ). The entire State is criss crossed by ATV trails. The State has built at least one public range in every county using hunting license monies, and these ATV trails always seem to l...

Yeah, but would you buy a SAA with that %$%# lock on the sideplate ???????????.....................................JJ

JJ_Miller

Guys I hate to bust your bubble but there is no way to hide firearms or parts thereof anywhere in or near your residence. Drug dogs will be converted to gun dogs and their noses cannot be fooled. If you hid the weapons well enough to get by the dogs, it would take you a couple of days to access them...

I just spoke to Joe, my Lab Maggie jumped off the back of my Polaris and broke her fibula, blew her ACL and is currently immobile. So instead of hunting with all my friends I will be carrying my 60 lbs BEST friend in and out of the house to use the bathroom for about the next 4 weeks. I'm sorry guys...

Nope, I have 0 messages in my box........................JJ

I just got back from the farm and had a PM notification in my email, but I could not find a PM, so whoever sent me one try it again........JJ

When I was working in Welch WV as a young Trooper in the early 80's I received a call of a shooting at a little town about 15 miles from the office. By the time I got to the scene there were about 20 to 25 people standing around an obviously deceased body which was laying in an ally between some hou...

I did not know it at the time of the hunt, but these buff would chase Teds ranch hands when they were out tending the fences or filling the feeders on the Polaris Ranger. One of them attacked the Ranger and butted the hell out of it. Just plain bad tempered I guess.............................JJ

In '04 I took a 1895 405 as a back up to a flintlock on a safari to South Africa. I used a Hornady 300 gn FP loaded with 55gn of H-4895. That gave me an average of 2230 fps. I was running it thru a levergun. I think you could run your Ruger up to the point where your shoulder gives out before the Ru...

JJ_Miller

Start off at 50 grains even, that will put you at/near 2000fps. But at that speed you are going to need lots of cast bullet knowledge to keep leading down. Proper bullet size, bullet lube, ect.ect. What do you want to do with your loads ? Target and whitetails 1300 fps is plenty enough speed. For th...
