Re: 8-444 Wildcat
I dealt with JD Jones for a muzzle brake on my 375 JDJ Encore, 15" barrel. They are a class act. I have no reservation recommending them. They will have reloading dies available for any caliber they sell also. I did at one time think about their 8 MM/ 444. Never did anything. The 375 JDJ can be...

Re: Model 94 in .32 Win Special
I have a 1959 32 Win Special 94. Very accurate with the RCBS bullet and fun to shoot. Somewhat unique, the 32 is an effective hunting round. Probably not significantly more power than a 30-30 but has a slight edge. Enjoy the history of the gun. My intention is to give mine to my grandson some day. Don
