Wonder about the 50 Beowulf in a modified 336. Uses the rim size of the 7.62 x 39, which I believe is about what the 35 rem is. Might have to check into this

Rusty==get ahold of the Florida Corporation commission, if there is one there and get ahold of the oil and gas division. Tell them about the well and have a description of the section, township and range and get a final production report to see just what the well produced and from what depths. Quick...

Stepmom lives in Riverside, near the naional cemetary and said a twister hit near the air museum. That big one that hit in Windsor CO .,ended up traveling North and missed my Sisters house by about 300 yards. Took out some trees, but her neighbors house and horse sheds were not so lucky. She was in ...

I would think that if you tried the hydrogen trick, you would lose any efficiency from the hydrogen/oxygen fuel, by the energy needed to produce the gases, from water. You will put a greater load on your alternator, and the energy has to come from somewhere, so you would use more gasoline.

Thunder50

I think TWENTY NINE BILLION is what the oil companies make in ONE quarter of the year. That means that they sell the equivalent of two hundred ninety billion gallons of gasoline. CEO's make mult-millions, but you have to look at what the companies produce. Now look at governments. They sit on their ...

She married the wrong guy!!!! Wife dresses like that, well, I am sure you understand. I'm a guy. Whats more to say. May be 54, but I'm not dead!

39A----Mid 70's version. Probably 10,000 rounds and more through it. No problems.

Thunder50

I would think it would be worth $8-10 a pound if you want to turn it quick. I bought a bunch when discontinued for $5/lb, years ago. Still have some and use it in the '06 and 308. Cast Boolits velocity is about 2100 fps and I use a heavy boolit for the caliber. Caseful to the base of the boolit. 1-1...

If they can't, I might be able to also. Might have a carbide endmill that would work on those suckers.

About like a golfer would think!!!

PS I don't think there are any trees at St. Andrews.

Enjoy mine. Have used it skeet shooting also. Tough , but doable. If I ever get to hunt bobwhite quail again, might use it for that purpose.

Thunder50

I would stay away from the Ft. Knox. Bought two of them and the upper pieces that seperate the gun barrels are made of particle board and if you put your gun in and put any pressure on them, they will break. Didn't even get all my guns in the save before each one broke. You would think on a safe tha...

Thunder50

Its not 700grains= 1 oz. Its 437 gr per oz. You would get 23 bullets per pound, or around $0.27 each. Guess you could carry a MSDS sheet showing what is in the boolit.

Thunder50

Usually when I get on the computer, I come here, Cast boolits(noticed some of you there) and usually the Harley/Davidson forum. Sometimes I will sneak over to Greybeards, the Valkyrie forum, AR.15 and the 1919a4 sites, but the first three are 99% of my surfing. The best is HERE!

Thunder50

Hope they shoot OK, as I picked up a saddle ring rifle that was in decent shape. I then found a near new one with the Marlin sticker still on the forend. Thought about converting the older one to 445 super mag, but hate to ruin a collector gun.

Thunder50

Can the brass be made from any other case?

Thunder50

Lets see if I can remember all of them. '07 Duramax(LMM) gets 17.1 if I don't go over 70, but about 16.2 if I do and don't have a heavy foot.

If you are selling a long gun to a person in another state, it must go through an FFL on the receiving end. Same with a handgun. It does not need to go FFL to FFL, but many FFL's refuse to do anything but FFL to FFL as they do not want to send a copy of their FFL to a private party. Shipping is anot...

Prayer sent for your Sister.

Did the same thing as you are planning. Used the bolt/carrier from my 30-30 and rechambered a 35rem barrel I fitted. Had trouble loading rounds in the loading gate and when I singly loaded the rifle and worked up a load, I just got about 150fps more out of the 356 vs the 35 rem. Pulled the barrel of...

Thanks for all your prayer for my best friend of almost 40 years. A little brother to me. Unfortunately, the Good Lord must have something for him to do as he called him away a few hours ago. Hal's wife called before noon and said he was in ICU with a blood clot in the lungs. He died a few hours lat...

Friend had one of these with a heavier than normal looking barrel from what I have seen. Probably 3/4" diameter at the muzzle. Savage marked barrel. He bought it about 1960 or so. He said that he cannot find it in any book, and he has had 40 or so Savage 99's, but said this is the only heavy ba...

Glad you are OK. Monday was a rough day in the mountains with that 70 car pileup on I-70 near Vail. Was in Glenwood Springs and it was snowing pretty hard.

Recent gunshow, fellow wanted my Mini-14 stainless , but wanted to trade something. I really just wanted to sell it. Said he had to trade, so I asked what he had. He told me, and I figured its one of the few things I would like, so he got it, I took a look and asked what he wanted to to. He wanted t...

My best friend, almost my little brother, is back in the burn unit of the hospital. He went in to have some surgery to remove some of the burned area that was worse than the doctors thought. He wasn't eating enough and was getting malnourished so they put a feeding tube in and removed some body fat ...

I was looking at a powder burn chart and it lists WMR just after Accurate Magpro. Here is the link. Just copied it from another site (Castboolits.gunloads.com surplus powder section)

Don't know about the 308 but the 45-70, at my gun shop is $658.

AJMD429---He was using a cutting torch on some fence corner posts at the farm and caught the grass on fire. Tried to stomp it out and I guess that some embers got inside his coveralls, down at the bottom of the legs, and started burning there.

Thunder50

Went down to Oklahoma to the burn center. He wasn't doing real well the day I got there, but was better the next day. They used something called Integra on his legs where the third degree burns were. Probably 18" long on each leg and part behind the knee on one leg and over the knee on the fron...

Just got back home and saw this post. I would say with butter and strawberry jam (I like safeway's best). Sometimes with chili(hotter the better).

My best friend of 40 years called earlier today. He had an accident and has third degree burns from his knees down to his ankles and second degree on his ankles.

I started with a ladle from my lead solder melting kit but soon went with a Saeco 10lb bottom pour pot (1971). Still have it and still use it. Tried ladle casting, but soon abandoned it for the bottom pour. Also bought a lyman 450 that I wore out and have two others. Also have a RCBS that I like a b...

If you sent it in a month ago, I would figure that you should get it in sometime around the end of April. They had mine almost 3 months.

Thunder50

Barnes 325's & 350"s are what I have tried in my #1. If it had a better trigger, I could probably do better than 1 1/4" at 100yds, with mine. Have a mould from Mountain Moulds for a 325gr boolit, but no range time yet.

Gun store near here has a 340 with a cheap scope, checkered stock, but it is in 22 Hornet! Excellent bore. I haven't seen one of these before. Plenty in 30-30, and 222, but this is a first. What is this worth? Shop has $299 on it and might come down $20 or so. Thanks. Yeah, I know its not a lever, b...

Your bullets in the ranger are probalby .002 over groove dia. , which is good. Your .358 bullets are probably near groove dia. and it would be better if you can find some .360" to try. That might get rid of the flakes of leading.

Thunder50

Lead (Wheelweights) are definitely getting tougher to get. Around here, the salvage yards pay 20cents and ask 80cents for the same thing. You have to be careful about zinc ww's now also as it will ruin you alloy if you melt any in your batch. For 44's I generally don't use gas checks. Hate to put th...

Can you buy it and ship everything home, but the receiver? After all, it would only be parts then.

No detachable mag on it. Here in Colorado, its welcome, because you cannot carry any in the mag anymore. You used to, without one in the chamber, but not now.

Local shop had a 336. 20"bbl w/barrel band, pistol grip stock,scope base. Really good shape, probably 90-95%, immaculate bore, crossbolt safety. In 35 Remington. They want $249 for it. Also have another 336 in 30-30, I believe shown as a 336CC, with synthetic woodland camo stocks on it. Didn't ...

Not a Texan, but had a Grandfather and Great-grandmother from Texas. Would have moved there as really liked the hill-country, but too humid, so came to Colorado instead.

Talked to Jess last Thursday about a couple of rebores he is doing for me. A Savage 340 to 38-55 and a Browing 1895 to 38-72 (problem with reamer--pilot too big, gotta get it reground). I think he's pretty busy.

Glad no one was hurt. Kinda looks like a S&W 29 silhouette of mine.

Looking at the video again, it appears that he might have kicked in some left rudder, just before he expected touchdown.
