CCI primer hve been 100% relible fo me, but they seat harder in every caliber i use them in. Was wondering if they had a "thicker" plating or whatever you call the
chrome color on them.

3leggedturtle

That sure is a beautiful looking SxS, does/did it pattern as good as it looks?

I love the 375 H&H. Nice slow recoil compared to many mags. I converted mine to AI and eventually built this monster for my CZ 550. :D http://i44.photobucket.com/albums/f39/Cowboytutt/375HHAI.jpg The magazine and action of the CZ550 is "full length" and accomidates a very long cartrid...

Thats really nice

, and in a great caliber too. How long did it take you to decide to buy it?

These plain-jane 255 grain Winchester's out of my little Bond shoot just dandy. (the only 45 I own) :) http://i99.photobucket.com/albums/l308/mountaincreekphotos/BondDerringer.jpg Well thats a start :D Hows the recoil and where the grips come from?

Yes i have noticed that too; the "lost control" type of bike accidents with older people. When I did the ALCAN this summer i made it a point to go 50mph. The amount of older guys that flew by me like I was standing still was shocking. When I got 8 miles up the road there they were all stop...

I just fondled a Ithaca 72. That was my 1st thought that Henry just "remade" it. The Ithaca even had the same "click" on closing sound that my Henry 22Mag does. Thanks for the info. 3leg

Scope the 284 and peep the 375

I used to catch grasshoppers al summer long and freeze them. In the winter when i pulled them out to feed my turtles, about 1/3 of them would come back to life. Your way would of been alot easier BUTmy mother would never let that happen

Welcome aboard

My 94 didnt need a taller sight when I peeped it. Used that way for 25 years and in '05 I puta firesight on it that came in a packge deal from Midway that had both Marlin and Winchester front sights with the FP peep sight Todd/ 3leg

Check your nose to crimp groove length before you order. If it's too long it won't cycle in 357 brass, like RCBS 180 which needs to be loaded into 38 brass to fit. Ranchdog's are made for the Marlin and should work fine but I don't know about the Saeco, somebody on here will know the answer. Yep I ...

I have also read the article. I wonder if this is the truth or just something he told his mother and Grandmother to deflect the blame from his own partying and actions.

The Saeco 180gr FP woks great in my lever plus the Sec Six too. They also habe a 158gr I woldnt mind too

3leggedturtle

My Puma loves 180gr Saeco FPs and RP 125gr Golden Sabre's. It isnt fussy about any reload I have fed it. It will even feed EMPTY .38 cases

3leggedturtle

if its under $300 and in decent shape i'd buy it. barrels are easily changed like the 10/22 and you can even get a 17MACH2 barrel for it. 10/22 mags fit if you want a jungle clip on it. plus its eaily put into action with the clip or unloaded quickly too. BTW where is it at? :P I hvent seen one unde...

Hobie, how often do Security Sixes or Speed Sixes come thru you shop?

3leggedturtle

If you buy a Glock or S&W M+P in 40S+W you can get barrels in 9mm. Dpending on your mood you can switch from one caliber to another.

3leggedturtle

MMMHH that gave me the munchies.

3leggedturtle

I have, was a long slide 9mm. Did seem any different than a regular one. Liked the longer barrel more than anything else

3leggedturtle

I have a Ruger P95 and P97 15 rounds in 9mm or 8 rounds in 45 auto. Feel nicer in my hand than a Glock. They both are SA or DA on first shot. Are usually $150 to $200 cheaper to bot. CDNN also has S&W 659 for $340.

You old guys could always fry that pic in a pan of butter for yer daily supply of fiber too!!

Those are nice looking cartridges, glad your plan came together so good.

Any of them sound like a good score. Were you able to decide quickly or did you have to think about which one you wanted th most? 3leg

Bought a box of WW 180gr shells for $17.25. Dont even own or seen one in 7 years. Think I'll mothball it and save for rainy day

For hospitality. The Fish at the Airport Diner was the best meal I had the whole trip. Did over 8000 miles in 20 days and got the wandering bug out of me for a little while. Got to see lots of Blackies and Sow Grizzlies with cubs. Was a a rainy and cool weather the whole way up and back.

3leggedturtle

They suck worse than #$@%^&^. Wouldnt buy them if even if i had no other choice. I also think they are also the dirtiest ammo to shoot short of BP ammo. CCI, Federal and WW in that order is what I will only buy and shoot. On the range 7-8 of every 10 dud rimfire rounds are RP.

I liked it b4, but its even better looking now

I can only haul 20.75 tons in my wagon. But, where do I pick it up!

I learned that a 223Rem in a 20" barrel will rip and tear a 5" long gash in a military sleeping bag. especially when you let muzzle slide back a little too far :oops: Just spent 15 minutes sewing it up. Forgot my carpet and didnt put an old blanket over it like I usually do. Any one else h...

Bought 1# of H380 for the 250Savage, and a very well informed gent told me I should be using Varget cuz it has no reaction to Temperature extremes. That H380 became "erratic" below 60 degrees. HHmmm, Am I missing something or does that sound like alot hoo-haw to y'all too ?

The 71 is a great looking piece. I passed on one last year for $699, went back 2 days later and of course it was gone. I just handled like a big model 53. Think I could almost like the 348 more than the 30/30 if'n I would just take the plunge. What is your load for each of them?

3leggedturtle

Harry that twas my thought but, 75gr is longer and seats deeper, It's a hornady and has longer bearing surface than 86gr RP . The HDY copper feels alot harder too than the RP bullet. I was also trying to remember when I was forming the brass I had the 86's jammed into the rifling so It would form an...

I had a fun 4 day shooting chrono session. Hit an oxymoron with my 256WM. With a charge of H335 and a 86gr FP it does 2375fps.With same charge under the a 75gr HP it only averaged 2250fps. Is really accurate for me. Shooting thru a 2litre bottle of water, it exited and left a 1/2" by 3/4" ...

I even fondled a left-handed version at Cabel'a last November. Just dont care for that short of a barrel on anything short of a 22 or 9mm type of rifle. It came up nice and felt fairly light.
