Are those things really cockroaches or are you just calling them that? Those suckers are huge.

Funny thing, big things don't bother me a bit but little things like that and spiders give me the heebie-jeebies.--------6

6 Point, My hat is off to you and anyone else who can deal with this Eastern heat wave, especially getting hammered by those loads. Did you have any luck with decent groups? For me, as soon as the temps go above 90, it seems like bullets fly all over the place and I don't know if its the heat or my ...

The Remington 25's are the best woods loafing rifle ever made. (as long as your hunting small game or "just loafing"). The size of a Winchester Model 61 but in centerfire calibers. I've got 'em in both calibers and one I have , in 25-20 will outshoot any other 25-20 I have ever had that wa...

Sixgun

Joe Bobby,
Its only a 2" gun when you can do it on command.

For real, I have shot many 1" "fluke groups", with the next group running 3".

Even so, you still have a good one. It will most likely stay in that vicinity.-----------6

Sixgun

Yea Pops, that ole '86 does the job nicely. By looking at the barrel contour, I'd say that rifle was made between 1900 and 1908.

Goodness, that goat has quite a pair of testicles.

Sixgun

Streetstar, I see what you are getting at. Your personality is close to mine.............we both don't care for dealing with the public...or people for that matter. While I don't set up, I know plenty of guys who do and they all tell me its the way to do it. That's all I would have to see is some gu...

Sixgun

Nice, well made videos you made there, Mr. Collection. :D Are you guys from Czechoslovakia? I see you cast bullets too. Tell us about gun ownership there. I noticed in your Austrian Wanzel, you use a shotgun shell with a cast bullet. Very neat... I can see your sweetheart do not like to shoot prone....

Sixgun

Just checking on O.S's wellbeing. You OK O.S.? I see you took quite a jab to your chest in that one pic.

A 34 is very impressive, especially in the smallbore/pistol caliber discipline. Like you said, the chickens are a "gimme" in big bore but not so in the other two. The closest to "gimmes" in smallbore/pistol are the pigs, and even then I manage to miss #10 most always....I get exc...

Sixgun

Kevin is right.

The 1894's made before that were in 38-55 and 32-40 as the steel used in these guns was not perfected for high pressure until some time in 1895.-----------6

Sixgun

I guess that's why the WW2 vets are called the "greatest generation". In reality, people are people no matter when they were born but it sure seems like those guys were a different breed. Many of today's punks were not a pimple on those guy's azz's. My uncle, (my Dad's bro.) was a mortar m...

"Ya know, that's what I call good kids........working for a nickel.......seems like the 1960's. Kids up this way would want to unionize, demand benefits, and want $10 a rabbit.----------6

'Ya know, we really have it good. Imagine the thoughts running through those young kids minds, never knowing if they were going to make it back and knowing that it was a good chance they would not. And we concern ourselves with stupid stuff like, "I can't find any primers for sale".-------...

Nice toys.

I'll take that brass framed OM Ruger!

Sixgun

That was quite a video. Its hard to believe junk like that escaped from the factory. I personally have looked at a half dozen Rem-Marlins that came through my bud's business and I was astounded by the lack of quality control.....there is none. It was easy to stick a nickel between the wood and the r...

Griff got it right. Words of experience

Nath,
Give your little four footed friend a big hug from the boys at leverguns. Nice pic!-=----------------6

Sixgun

That's a nice knife!

Wadda think, from the 1950's? Worth every bit of $90. What's $90 today...a tank and a half of gas?

I see you had to push all of the rest of your tools forward so you had a place to take a pic of the knife.

Sixgun

Marve, Looks pretty good shooting to me. The load you use (22 gr. 5744) is the same load I use in the .348 with about the same weight bullet. I'm running 1600 with that and as the 33 is only slightly smaller, you are near the same, maybe 50-100 faster. I don't know what your sizing your bullets at b...

Sixgun

CAS, Relax. You just need to become familiar with this style of sighting arrangement. Sometimes you have to mix and match to get the right combination. Variances include your age, light, length of barrel, style of front sight, color of front sight, aperture size, distance of aperture from your eye, ...

Sixgun

CAS, What you have on the sight stem is a hunting aperture. Like you said, its like a ghost ring. Made for snap shooting on the bounding buck at 50 yards. That piece is removable and my guess is that the hole in the middle is about .100 in diameter. For finer work, get a couple of different eye piec...

Sixgun

On thinking more on this I can add that if all your going to do is short range......say 100--200 meters, any decent brand name spotter in the $2-300 range will work. No need for these 48 or 60 X jobs as when its turned up that high, the image just gets blurry. You will only get sharpness at high pow...

Sixgun

Anything that works in the 38-55 will work in the .375. Just size the cast to .377. My load was 22 of 5744 for around 1500. IIRC, 27 gr. of RL-7 is good for 1700+

Like the 38-55, I use blown out 30-30 brass. Just seat the bullets to correct OAL>-------------6

Sixgun

Excuse me for being unknowledgeable on such matter. What kind is it? B-24?

To the people in the know, is the glass on the front bullet proof or did those guys just pray?

neat pics----------6

Sixgun

Maybe. Its easy for me to get tired of the S.O.S and I'll play with the shooting irons instead. Gonna see what I can get myself into this weekend that's worth getting excited about. One thing for sure, I won't check back in Sunday with a post that reads, "How Often Do You Prune Your Bushes"...

Sixgun

Like rifle scopes, you get what you pay for in spotting scopes. With a $200 spotting scope, it may look nice and clear when your looking at birds, but try to see a .22 caliber bullet hole at 400 meters.

I use a 12 X 40 gold ring Leupold. Expensive, but you only buy one in a lifetime.-----------6

Sixgun

Nice thing to see in this day and age. Congratulations

This is an old thread. I was told the owner of this 66 traded it even up for a 44-40 Uberti!! No, no...I made sure this guy knows what he has and yes, I ran into him about a month ago and he is taking my advice and will hold on to it. He is fairly well off anyway so the bucks are not needed.

Great shooting, Jack! Lovely little 53, too. Yep, there's a lot of air around those targets! Yo Reds, Sure would have been more fun if you were there............but then again, you would beat me but that would be fine with me as we ain't shootin' for Cadillacs. Like you said in the e-mail, possibly...

Thanks guys. It seems like we exist for 12 months in order to enjoy 1 or maybe 2 exciting happenings.

Howdy Guys, Just got back Sunday night after 4 days of slamming lead down the barrels of a mess of guns at the McKean Rifle Club where the Regional Levergun Silhouette Champs are held near Bradford, Pa.

Sixgun, Sometimes, I notice the blue solution actually seems to lift of the bluing from previous applications. Is this normal, or have I not done something right?

When you think about what the Indian said, that pretty much describes the typical American way of life up until 1940 or so, with the exception of the hunting/fishing all day.

Sixgun

Jack, Those things happen, especially with old, ,old guns where they were made with iron that was not pure. In those days, they melted the iron and if it looked good, "they went to town". That's why your barrel looks better, its softer steel and with the receiver, you are getting "har...
