That may well be true, but his message is LOST in his medium. It's OK to show some civility...it's not a weakness. We got beyond the hall bully who picks on everyone way back in high school. Enough said.

Ya know, I'm fairly new around here...but...an observation... I keep reading everyone's apology for this Terry Murbach's lousy attitude... Who bit you in the butt on everything, Terry? Get over yourself. I like this forum because in general, people give good information and I feel there is some true...

I've been kinda wonderin' at everyone's opinion as to the concept of a .357 mag. levergun as maybe the perfect "bad times" gun. By "bad times" I mean serious civil insurrection, looting, protecting your home from roving bands of troublemakers...etc. Not to be a fatalist but I bel...

Steve's Guns is the place you want to go for his DVD. Here's a link: http://www.stevesgunz.com/ I just did this the past week on my 16" M92 Stainless Steel Rossi...MAN OH MAN...what a difference!!! It was well worth the money for the DVD and the spring kit / follower. Best money I have spent in...

Thanks, Steve. You're the one I was hoping would respond!

I'm in the middle of my disassembly of my Rossi 92 .357 using Steve's Guns video. I am trying to disassemble the bolt but after taking out the extractor pin and the firing pin stop pin, the firing pin won't come out of the bolt. I have the flip safety on top of the bolt and I wonder is this is what ...

I ordered the DVD kit with spring and follower today! Thanks again.

Can't blame you for wanting to get the H**L out ot the Peoples Republic of Kalifornia...I'm actually surprised that they are still a part of the Union. They ought to belong to Venezuela or China or some other communistic state. You can't use the restroom without making sure politically it doesn't af...

Thanks, Steve. I'll be ordering the DVD kit within the next two weeks.

Thank you, gentlemen! Steve's Guns is my next stop.

Thanks for the reply, jumbeaux...
I looked at the posts below but I didn't see this particular problem addressed...maybe I missed something. Got a link?

I apologize in advance because I know I saw the answer to this question about 100 pages or so inside the forum one day as I was casually reading away but I couldn't find it again. Here's the question: I'm noticing a "nick" on the edge of the open end of my fired brass after it has been eje...

Well, I live in the western US...mostly desert with alpine forests above me. I'm inclined to go with a .357 mag for most because of it's ability to load down to .38 Specials for smaller game and full house .357 for CLOSE UP black bear...marginally. There are lots of bear in the area but it's still a...

Lots of great info, guys...thanks for the help!

Great ideas, Joe.

See my edited post above. Is there a better powder for full house +P (with LSWCs) than Unique? Maybe it's more a matter of powder choice than bullet weight. Unique is pretty fast powder, do I need a slower burning powder to duplicate the factory round results? I'm giving my Unique rounds a pretty st...

I see your point, Blaine, and it's a good one. It's just that I have a stockpile of components (Unique and semi wadcutters) and I want to maximize the load using these in a snubbie. From everything I have read in my Alliant Powder guide, I'm pushing a 158 gr. lead semiwaddie about as hard as I can.....

Actually, I don't have a chronograph. I failed to mention I shoot a S&W Model 438 Bodyguard snub. I realize that the FBI load is basically a LSWCHP loaded to +P velocities. I am just having trouble getting the "ooph" out of my handloads...they seem wimpy compared to factory Remington 1...

I would like know if anyone knows the ACTUAL load stats for the "FBI" load in .38 Special. I know it is a 158 gr. lead hollow point. I shoot (and have a ton of) 158 gr. lead semi wadcutters (no hollow points) but I would like to know if the original FBI load can be recreated using MY bulle...

For me it's a 30-06. It was my first exposure to "high-powered rifles" as a kid and I hated it. I detest the noise and the kick. I can't imagine having to fire one all day without hearing protection like my dad's generation did in WW2. I realize that if you were the enemy and got hit, you ...

Atticus... Just look for some "cowboy" rounds if you don't expect to reload. They are usually found with a lead round nose flat point (RNFP) bullet. Also, I have had great success with lead semi-wadcutters (LSWC) which are quite plentiful as "remanufactured" shells or "range...

My Rossi 16" stainless .357 mag was pretty good right out of the box. It loves .38 LSWCs. It shoots just a hair to the right of point of aim. I just need to adjust the front sight slightly. I love this gun and I think you will too. I'd like to get that steel mag follower for it from Steve's Gun...

I reload strictly .38 Special and a few .357 mag. I got into reloading because I got into CCW and .38 snubbies...now I shoot snubs and mostly a Rossi M92 16" stainless .357 levergun among a few other great rifles. I reload because our world makes me nervous and I want the capability to create a...
