The only injections I get are in my eyes every 6 weeks. One eye gets a shot EVERY 6 weeks the other eye gets it the same day but only every 4 months. How do I do that???? Because going blind would suck worse than the shots.

fordwannabe

Much more gooder!

fordwannabe

Thanks. I had recently noticed they have bullets for the 40-82 at a very fair price.

fordwannabe

Ok I have a few guns. In my opinion there are also a couple different kinds of collectors. I have a buddy that is a "condition collector". He doesn't do just, leverguns or shotguns or single actions, he would rather have pristine guns of whatever kind. Hey it's his collection and his money...

I load 28 calibers(cartridges?) my favorites to reload(not necessarily shoot, but probably) 45 colt, 44 special, and 45-70. 50-110 and 32 Colt are right on their heels.

fordwannabe

I like it. And it will always be MINE.

Cylinder throats done, steel ejector rod housing, BFR rear sight, SBH hammer, action job and my initials two places. I also bought a 1886 in 40-82

Had to go to my phone to see the pictures but it was worth it. Very nice. Just to be a jerk…don’t blow this one up. Meant in humor and in honor of MLV

When I worked at the prison, SOP was to live there for the last year or two to increase your retirement ( retirement pay is based on your highest gross for 3 years). I mean these guys would work doubles every day mostly 6 days a week. They retire and within a year we go to the funeral. Happened over...

fordwannabe

Well it apparently needs some work, so I will come to the club and pick it up. Then return in OUR standard turn around time, when I am done.

I retired August 1. I spent a week goofing off. I got a part time job at a LGS. I am building a car trailer for my project mustang( 1966 tubbed and nitrous injected), I have a project car(obviously). I bought a retirement gift for myself , 1886 in 40-82 so doing load development. I was offered soooo...

fordwannabe

CONGRADULATIONS I am not far behind you.

fordwannabe

Call me silly but isnt that just a hotrodded 33WCF? 200 grain .338 bullet based on the 45-70????

fordwannabe

MLV is the reason I went down the trail of obsolete lever action rifles. His articles made me excited to find weird old guns and love them as he did. I will miss his wisdom and knowledge. In a joking way (with all due respect) I gotta say that man sure did cost me a lot of money over the years. May ...

The same things that went wrong when they "reintroduced" wolves into Montana. "but they will stay in yellowstone ans the extreme northern part of the state."
NU UH!

fordwannabe

I thought you weren't buying anymore guns! HAHA. I laughed when you said it!

fordwannabe

Mike Hunter restorations did my 50-100-450 conversion work. The carrier needs work (50-110 is longer so the carrier needs modified to accept it). The frame actually has to be modified to accept the longer cartridge going through the loading gate. WELL WORTH THE EFFORT IN MY OPINION.

fordwannabe

I was using a Burris 3-9x40 for load development. I was skeptical the first day of the vast difference in the results with h only a half grain of difference that but s why I went back and shot the second day, same results. I am not totally set blank n thank snload, as I said in the previous post I w...

NOTHING says don’t mess with this house like a Warthog in the driveway

This was Rebored with a .375 reamer so I tried .376,377, and 378 but 377 was more consistent. I actually enjoy the Marlin the most as I use 10 grains of Unique in it and it is nice to shoot. Wind suggested that load to me.

fordwannabe

I tied the much touted Unique loads and blech. No bueno. So I tried the 3031. I still want to see about a load with 5744 but I need more bullets. Fred I have a Winchester rifle, this carbine, a 1893, and a Marlin in 375 Winchester.

fordwannabe

Those are 6 shot groups and I called that flyer as soon as I pulled the trigger

fordwannabe

Thanks Jay. I hit on the 31.5 grain load yesterday but to be sure I backed it up today. I shot them ladder style so each shot on an individual target was actually the third shot since last shot at that target. My 1894 rifle prefers 32.0 grains of 3031. The guy who rebored that barrel charged me $120...

fordwannabe

So I tried 31.5

Beautiful Jack! So I was playing with my rebored 38-55 carbine yesterday and today. 262 grain cast bullets from a Lyman mold to sing 3031
First is 31 grain 3031.
Then 32.0 grains

Ah the MIGHTY BAR. Just so you know Jack my burned thumb is YOUR FAULT….. I was melting some of your lead when I burned it on a 310 grain 430 cal bullet mold. Hey it’s AMERICA I CANT BLAME MYSELF FOR THE DUMB STUFF I DO!

fordwannabe

I remember an old episode of Gun Stories wher the interviewee told of a Montana Sheriff that had taken a course somewhere and with his old model 94 patrol rifle outshot the rest of the class. The sheriff had LOTS of experience with that gun and it was as capable as an AR….In experienced hands.

fordwannabe

Help! Now I have to remember stuff! I have my phone setup to recognize my thumbprint instead of passwords….well lastnight I burned my thumb on a piece of sprue while casting. I now have a big old blister in the middle of my thumbprint which the phone won’t recognize. I haven’t had to remember passwo...

Hey fellas, I thought of you guys yesterday. I went to a gun bingo(never knew such a thing existed) before anything else happened they asked all current military and veterans to stand then they got a 5 minute applause. Then we all stood for the pledge AND a prayer! Still some good places left. On a ...

I was on a logging road about 10 miles out of Eustis Me in an old crew cab, when out of the woods on my left (the woods were thicker than cool guns in Jack's basement) came a Momma moose with NO warning. I slammed on the brakes, the momma sped up and we just barely bumped front bumper to right hind ...

But you could be trampled by a momma moose!

Thanks Jay. I have a 26 inch Model 1894 and a 26 inch 1893 in 38-55 but those I value higher than a Ted Williams soooo for $120 bucks I now have a less desireable 38-55 that I can toss around without quite the same regard. I actually saw a model 336 that had the same treatment on GB and they were as...

Hi Guys. I read up on all the stuff that I missed over the weekend. I put $60 of diesel in my truck Saturday 11GALLONS oh boy! well it was cheap compared to the 4 injectors I had to put in :shock: .

Hellllllo Jack. 20 million primers? You musta sold some off! I remember the two deuce and a half’s that emptied out those crates of primers from Targetmaster. That was VERY impressive. I have been putting your ingots to good use 150, 170, 200, 240,255, 300,405,500,and 540 grains at a time. O am goin...

I just spoke to Jack. he says that he has been banned as both Sixgun and as Jaybird. I am upset with that. He said he doesn't even care at this point as Leverguns has gone "too woke." He believes others will eventually leave on their own. If this is some kind of a glitch please let me know...

Sorry, I should have said what the issue was in the first post. The round without the little metal o- ring thingie only goes in the body of the puller about an inch and becomes lodged.

I watched a couple faux CCH finishing videos using cold blue on youtube but they were working with real steel.

Hey Harry! As my only insider into Hydro-dipping.....does anybody make a hydrodip film to emulate CCH? I want my receiver cover on my Henry done in a faux case color.
