I read the paperback book about him . Very interesting read for sure !

Hayseed

Hes been pretty busy in the shipyard cranking out his personal navy .

The last one really scooted along !

Hayseed

Simple , "O" and crew have made people paranoid ! And it possibly wont end until he and his are replaced . He and his have made the statement that losing the first battle is not the end of the war on the second amendment . And he has his people engaging in a state by state battle right now...

Ive been casting my 12ga 1oz slugs with wheel wt metal same as I use for other bullets. I use the 1oz shotcups with a 20ga card wad to get ht under slug inside cup. I have a data sheet from Lee that came with mould .

The ww slugs go through 6x6 at 25 yds and open like 1/2 dollar !

Hayseed

I have two Lee, one is the old autoprime with round trays and other is new style with square trays . I like the older one with round trays better .
I also have the RCBS hand primer . It works good too but is a bit slower for change over to another cartridge.

Hayseed

Excellent !! The mag tube was prolly closer to heat for spring to get soft . If bore is shiney it should be good to go

Hayseed

Shotguns................mmmmmmmmmmmmm..........Shoot 'em? I shoot anything with a trigger but shotguns are low on the priority list. Probably because they are only good for "minute of torso", trap/skeet shooting or bird/deer hunting, the latter 2 I seldom do anymore. This needs to be addr...

To me a 7 mag kicks worse than a 338 mag ! The snap of a 7 compared to push of the 338 with 250 grainers ! I shoot '06 and 30-338 mag pretty good and have never considered them heavy recoil. Now my 45-110 with 535 grainers is recoil ! But knowing it is there and being prepared for it is key and is q...

Rust is fun

I enjoy gettin the basket cases and gettin them runnin again !

Keeps my hands busy and gives them something to do other than feed my face

Hayseed

Whoa !!!! What colors on the snake !! That is something !

Welcome home and thank you for your service !!

I think if you join Garand Collectors you are allowed to order from CMP.

I swapped for one years ago and put a new Criterian barrel on when Midway had them on sale .

Hayseed

44MagHunter and I were talking about a minimalist cover-all-needs battery, and being 'men' we of course had to include half-mile sniping, so we started with the 338 Lapua and worked our way 'down' to shorter ranges. He's enamored with the 300 AAC Blackout and keeps trying to talk me out of mine, bu...

If they got hot nuff to soften springs they will most likely need re-heat treated .

Hayseed

The written word can sometimes come across abrasive when not originally meant to be as such . I'll also add that there are those that relish in being abrasive while being careful to keep within the bounds of rules. Things would have went differently if some could have chose a different coarse to voi...

Glad I loaded up before they went over $7.49 for the 525 ct. cartons !

Hayseed

Sorry to hear about your loss, Pitchy. If you're gonna spit on a fellas grave and then swing the Lord around like you got a stray cat by the tail, then at least acknowledge His concerns. The main issue here is that he was your father, so pay appropriate respects. You decide what that entails. :( Iv...

Neil had some good songs but horrible political views for sure !

Heres one of his I liked also.

Put a sized , unprimed case in chamber , close block and let hammer down. Now bring block back against hammer where it rides under breech block, start slipping feeler guage between case rim and breech face.Largest feeler is headspace you have .

Hayseed

Headspace should be .002-.003" if I remember right.

Hayseed

My lil Beagle had something similar couple years back , blood comin out both ends ! Scared bejeebus out of me ! Turned out it was some bug contracted from a stray cat that had done its 'business' in his yard ! After 2 weeks of doggy dope and a thorough sanitizing of his yard with a diluted purox spr...

Hayseed

Hagler , thx for the pics ! Thats what had me boggled as the other 94's I have are band behind site and a milled ramp instead of dovetailed barrel. I also had the rear site like the 1925 model pictured . I had to add a hunk of wood to butt plus comb and belly where it was wacked up. Guess I'll make ...

Hayseed

Ive been collecting parts for an old 94 Winny basket case I swapped for . Upper tang was broken at some time and brazed back together ,buttstock had been cut for child/woman . And so forth , you get the picture , it is by no means a pristine collector . I think it will have character when its togeth...

Lenn , yer gonna have to enlarge yer pond and hire harbor patrol ! Uh oh .............jus had a thought ............DHS is gonna be watchin ya for creatin yer own NAVY !!!!

Ha ha ha ha ha !!!!!!!!!

Hayseed

From what Ive seen the Indian made copies tend to be a bit rough and proportionally off .

Ive seen a couple that were refinished and looked nice .

Hayseed

Thank ya fellers !!

Hayseed

Please note: While the Stevens Model 235 hammerguns were made as late as 1929-30, they were made for a loooong time before that - and in 1926 ALL the ammo companies upgraded shotshell loads with new/different powders, aka: higher pressure loads than prior to 1926. Since there's NO practical way to ...

Hayseed

That is COOL!!!!

Hayseed

Awesome Bud !!

Hayseed

Wonder if a catamaran type would be speedier on water?

Hayseed

Nice lookin tugboat pitchy

Hayseed

Cool ! Is the new burner a sort of Betty Lamp ?

Hayseed

Cool Lenn !!!

I am a bit biased since getting my 'Dumpster Buddy' ! After losing my 'Brit' to a hit and run on Christmas eve around 20 years ago I come across a 'Beagle Rescue' site in '08 online . After looking through it and going back to it several times looking at a 6 mo. old male Beagle posted there I just h...

Hayseed

Hayseed

Hayseed

I sure hope an pray he shows up !

Any freeze ups ?

Hayseed

Pitchy's little pal 'Snoopy' has gone missing . They are in TX. now and Snoop slipped away Saturday and has been missing since !
Pitchy and his Bride are quite distrought over this and could use our thoughts and prayers.

Hayseed

I thought Id also add another good book is 'Back to Basics' , a good referance and good info.

Hayseed

Backwoods Home Magazine has a lot of usefull info in it also . Its along same line as Backwoodsman magazine.

Another source of info and most of which is free for the asking is at the local County Extension Office.

Hayseed

IMR powders tend to run hotter over the spectum.

You never want to be working up a load with one and switch to the other in mid stream .

Burn rates also differ within same man. in different lots .

Hayseed

Yupper , got two , one on a 95 mauser action an one on a 98 mauser action. Barreled them both myself , one with a Numrich barrel an one with an old Springfield barrel . Both shoot the 150-200 gr cast great . I had to make a mag block to shorten well length and weld a little build up on extractor lip...

Hayseed

Pitchy is great guy and always tries to make ya smile !!

Safe travels my friend !!

Hayseed

Jeff Tanner in England makes a dandy round ball mould of any diameter you specify for under $50 delivered ! Ive ordered a couple and get them in under two weeks from time of placing order ! When playing I just use a load meant for same wieght of shot as long as my shotgun projectile is same or sligh...

Hayseed

Pitchy my bro , you know I have your back !

Hayseed

Nope , never had a hairball that big come out with the drain snake. That one there looks like it stiil wiggles a might

Hayseed

Did it pass 'quality control' testing ?

Hayseed

Building muzzleloaders , blacksmithing, knife makeing , leatherwork , bullet casting .

These all tie together for me ,after getting started in 70's had to learn how to make do .

Found out it was all quite enjoyable

Hayseed

Ifn ya lose power this winter that will be right handy !!

Hayseed

Check out midsouthshooterssupply.com , they carry LEE products . You can get a small dipper pot , .375 roundball mould and dipper quite cheaply. Pure lead would be best as its possible to break loading lever with harder alloys.Ingot mould can be a muffin tin from goodwill store.

Hayseed

WoW ! Looks like those pics could have been taken here ! Thats what I woke up to this morning ! Still spittin a little now an then too.
