I was in the same place as you a while back, deliberating between those 3. After much debate, and research I have decided I will build a 458 SOCOM. Far greater bullet selection than the 452" and 50. Less costly than the 50 cal, both in building and shooting.

Bulldog

Condolences, and prayers for the family.

Bulldog

That's more than most do. I will generally break in a new semi auto handgun with 200 rounds of ball ammo, then 50 rounds of my carry ammo to ensure it functions reliably. From then on it's either ball, or cast bullets for practice.

I carry a handload of 124 gr. Hornady XTP, with a max change of Blue Dot. Actual chronographed speed from my 92 is 1305 fps. That's right up there with the 357 Sig. I've conducted numerous tests with ballistic gel and XTP bullets of various calibers, and they are always reliable expanders, and retai...

Go over to Greybeard Outdoors. In one of the forums, I think Handirifles? they have some reamers that they share. I borrowed a 45-70 throating reamer, free of charge a while back.

Bulldog

I hope it's a good seller for them. It's a great cartridge. My 1977 model is without a doubt the most accurate levergun I've ever had. With it's favorite load it's 3 shot cloverleafs at 100 yards. Every other load rivals bolt gun accuracy. Have never shot a load that wasn't at least satisfactory.

Very nice! I saw those uppers on sale at Midway too, but held off since I'm saving up for my next build in 6.5 Grendel. My last 2, both 300 Blackout, 1 rifle, one "pistol", I build with 80% lowers. I'll never buy a serial numbered lower again.

With the introduction of the Hearing Protection Act, and now a President that isn't so rabidly anti-2nd Amendment, hopefully soon the suppressor will be removed from the list of NFA items and will be able to be purchased over the counter.

I believe it was actually a little over 2400. Still, not a common firearm.

Bulldog

Unfired with box examples have sold for $1200- $1400. Shooters with no box will usually bring at least $800.

My ccw buddies. G43, and a CobraTec Mini OTF.

The test I'm especially interested in is when the car is off, is there a drain on the battery? A $5.00 DVOM from Harbor Freight will tell you the truth. Set it to amperes and disconnect one of the battery cables. Put one lead on the battery post, the other on the battery cable. Any amount of amps o...

Bulldog

In addition to checking the fuses, there are fusible links near the battery that are known to fail. If your problem isn't found there, most likely the problem is in the distributor. A remanufactured distributor can be had from the local parts store for about $200. But before you go buying any parts,...

Checked our local Wally World last night, and they had none. Same as usual.

Bulldog

I don't recall the specifics of the powder charge, but I put together a hard hitting load for my 1911s with the Lee 250 RFN at about 900 fps if I recall. If you're not a bullet caster, Buffalo Bore has a very similar load. I can look up my data when I get home from work if you want it. https://www.b...

The Winchester 1300 is the only repeater that will reliably cycle them without modification.

Had the same problem with my 66 Centennial. I used a couple thinknesses of soda can for shimming mine to the left. I was hesitant to drill the tang, but now at least I'm not the only one with a buggered up commemorative.

Bulldog

I would trade that AR for the Marlin in a heartbeat. You can always buy or build another AR just like that one. Not so with the Marlin. $750 is a good price.

When all you guys get together with 86er see if you can get my $800 back that his BS cost me. You would think such a "great guy" would at least offer up an apology. :roll: Perhaps one of y'all that stay in contact with Joe could remind him that Bulldog got the short end of the stick and g...

One do all rifle, under any circumstances, or weather conditions, I'd go with an older Ruger stainless synthetic in 300 WM.

Ortho Home Defense works remarkably well, in my experience.

Hold nose, vote Johnson. Do you want Hillary for our President? Because that's exactly what a vote for Johnson will be doing. As bad as he is, I will vote for Trump if for no other reason than the future of the Supreme Court. Whoever wins, they will likely be a 1 term President. The implications of...

Bulldog

I had wondered the same thing about the XTP in 44 magnum. So I fired my load of 24 gr. H110 with a 240 gr XTP from my 6" 629, and also from my Marlin 1894, into a stack of water soaked phone books. The load from the pistol clocked 1340 fps, and 1790 from the Marlin. The recovered bullets were n...

I have no experience with the 32-20, but in general I have found that neck tension with slow powders like LilGun, H110, that neck tension is more important for consistent ignition than crimp is.

Looks like he was trying to surrender. Hands up, don't shoot!

My father bought this gun when I was but a wee lad. I don't think it's had 2 boxes of shells fired in it. There is no sign of wear on any of the locking components. I really don't think it's a wear issue. It is possible that it was never fit properly I suppose. It's done this as long as I remember. ...

Bulldog

I have an old Revelation 350A single shot 12 ga that's giving me fits. It will pop open on every shot. I have thoroughly cleaned the locking bolt and barrel, replaced all the springs, and it still opens. The darn thing is so light that I'm thinking just the recoil is doing it. Any other ideas?

Hoping to find time this weekend to try a target or two with my Marlin 357 Cowboy.

I like my sonic cleaner for occasionally really scrubbing the brass, but I don't use it every time with smokeless powder cases. For black powder cases I use it every time, and it's great. I've tried all kinds of home made solutions, but nothing has worked better than the Hornady Ultrasonic cleaning ...

Bulldog

In my rimmed version of the 358, I shoot the 180 gr. Speer with 43.0 gr. of H4198. My 336ER will put the first 3 shots inside 1 moa with that load, at 2607 fps. That's my favorite whitetail load.

Bulldog

Very nice!

Bulldog

This is my 2nd M-1. I have a few clips... about a half doz. I have 4350 and will get some 150 gr spire point boattails to use initially in determining just how good the rifle is. Then, I'm going to work on a cast load. I have a line on a mold that might work. I plan on powder coating the bullets. H...

Too bad everything he and Brady does will forever have as asterisk next to it for getting caught cheating multiple times.

You stole that case! Great find!

I've had one of those for a while, and I probably paid more than I should have, but there was just something about it I couldn't resist. I put a Marbles tang sight on mine. May have been a mistake to drill and tap the tang, but I don't plan on selling it, so collector value wasn't really an issue fo...

You guys can have every 45-70 out there. I sold my Cowboy after an 80 shot silhouette match. I came to the realization that it was a hunting round and not a plinking round. My LGS had a near perfect Cowboy on the rack, for over 2 months. Priced at $650. I was even tempted at that price. The beauty ...

Our season opened yesterday. I hope to get out this weekend. Nothing to humble your wing shooting skills like a dove field.

For dumping a pile of pistol bullets in a hurry, you can't beat the LEE 6 cavity molds. I have several, and if you use a little common sense with them, they will last a long time and make you tens of thousands of bullets.

Bulldog

That sounds like one heck of a good time.

Bulldog

I haven't seen prices like that in some time, although my local shop currently has the best in stock selection of powder they've been able to get in the last 5 or 6 years. Looks like things are finally easing up, at least around here.
