Mmm... This isn't an accurate representation of my reloading room because I made a clean spot the other day. :roll: I hate to say it, but the super wide angle lens makes it look A LOT better than it really is. :| https://photos.imageevent.com/cas6969/shmisc/large/IMG_8262.jpeg https://photos.imageev...

Was over at my dad's the other day and we needed to get in his shed. He said "I have the key." And he fumbled around in his pocket. While he did I reached into my pocket, took out my folding pick and opened the lock before he could take his hand out of his pocket. He was surprised. I said ...

From what I've seen, assuming it's true, I have NO problem with them going after the guy. It's people like him (allegedly) that hurt all gun owners and innocent victims. That said, I'm completely opposed to the punitive, high profile method they used. There's countless other ways they could have han...

It's amazing that with how much I love baseball and always have, how deeply rooted in my life it is, my father's life, my grandfather's life, and now two generations of family members younger than I, how visceral my feelings about it are... it's sad how little I've come to care about major league ba...

Didn't Ben Forkin or somebody make one of these years ago? (though it might have been one of one)

Yeah... my brain still works a little. https://www.leverguns.com/articles/taylor/shootists.htm

Not completely on topic, but more just a way to say "Who knows what the heck will happen..." my first deer was a huge doe. Still the largest bodied deer I've ever shot. 50ish yards in a corn stubble field, slightly below me in grade, quartering to. 12ga shooting the old BRI style sabots. H...

I have a Mini 4k NV model. I want to say I like it, but it has a giant problem. I found out the hard way it doesn't want to turn on once the temps get close to 40 degrees. And the two things I bought it for both take place below, or well below that. In order to use it in the cold, I need to use a re...

My dad's first rifle as well. And the first one I ever shot.

I've had both a Ruger Bisley and a Freedom Arms do it while shooting. "Why are my groups slowly walking across the target?" Both had barrels unscrewing. :roll: Off center sights always worry me when looking at used guns, because you're rolling the dice. "Is it the gun, or was it the l...

I bought a Harbor Freight one slightly used from a friend. I used it once, as test, to clean the gunk of my keys. lol Worked lousy at it. Took several attempts to even accomplish that. The second time I tried to use it, it didn't even turn on. I got hoodwinked! There are firearms specific solutions ...

Well that certainly would have changed some history books.

Gun laws can be complicated enough without companies making them even tougher, it happens over here too. :roll: Worse IMO than companies making up rules and "laws" that don't actually exist, are the sellers who state things like "No sales to CA, NJ, NY, IL, MD" etc etc. We call ...

I hate dry tumbling.

What if humans appeared on the earth, intelligent, innovative, and adaptable? What if perhaps they didn't have to spend a million years banging rocks together to learn to make fire?

I had an old pair of Rocky hunting boots, I'd retired them from hunting but still used them for shoveling snow and going to the range in the winter. Year before last I went to use them and the soles were gone. Just a black crumbled mess of what used to be a boot sole. Conversely, I have a pair of So...

No it seems like they are done.

Stories keep coming out that it's been "sold" (selling), but it seems to be people wanting to buy remains inventory or equipment, not someone saving the company.

Oh dear lord, that was almost painful to listen to. What the heck was that delivery about. That was like a Harry Shearer voiced character on the Simpsons.

I can't say I've been there, but I was way closer than I liked. Was carrying a Colt Officer's ACP cocked and locked.

Tough to find a buyer for... nothing.

What are you getting? The rights to a brand name that you ran into the ground and killed? Technical packages for items you killed what small market interest there was by not producing any. A darn shame.

As well if you live in "non NFA" state you'd be violating state law to comply with Federal law... that isn't really law.

I hunted for half my hunting life in a shotgun only area, wishing I could use a rifle. That's what got me into single shot shotguns, always seeing deer too far for the slug gun. About 15 years ago they switched it to rifle. Since then, the farthest deer I've shot was about 70 yards. Most of them und...

Would you be so kind as to measure the case length of the 360BH and post your findings?

Sorry I didn't see this till just now.

The shell was in an odd spot, I barely saw it, I certainly could see why he couldn't find it.

Good thing it's got that compensator, recoil is probably brutal.
Or maybe it's to keep the muzzle down when firing bursts.

I don't recall if I have a Max case, but I didn't look for it.

I said I couldn't read it. I sort of could, but my brain wasn't processing what I was able to read. "300? That don't make sense. No, 360? That doesn't make sense either." (in spite of having read about it the other day)

I'm at the range today and see an empty case on the ground. I think to myself "A .375 Win? That's unusual to find." I pick it up and notice the diameter is too small. "a .350 Legend? I'll keep it for my cartridge collection/accumulation. No wait, it's rimmed!" I can't read what i...

I think I've only ever had this happen one "time" (one caliber/set of dies), RCBS .32H&R dies on my 550. But when it started, it did it 100% of the time, no matter how many times I worked the handle. Quite puzzling at first, I assumed the decap pin had broken off or fallen out. Then wh...

Didn't realize there are two different barrel styles. All should be like the one in cas' pic above. They only made 32-34 or so of them? It's does add to the heft for sure.
