Generally ..... I clean my guns after each shooting session. Unless I'm going back to the range in a day or so. I wipe them down when ever I handle them. If I'm out in the desert or camping or something like that, I'll usually clean them when I get home. Unless they get wet That's about what I do. ...

So sad to see people loose their lives because of (I'm assumming) well, not paying attention. As the #1 rule I ALWAYS watch where my muzzle is pointed. Last year, my good friend Tom, who owns Targetmaster gunshop and indoor firing range had an individual who committed suicide on the firing line. He ...

I found a simple, cheap, and easy solution to this problem years ago: I have the wife do it. All she has to do all day is work a 12 hour a day job, cook and clean. She's got plenty of time for all those mindless reloading chores. Besides, she's glad to do it for me anyway. Joe Goodness, Ask her if ...

OK guys, I feel much better now. After those nasty buzzards left, I did a walk around. I did find some scattered chicken bones but they looked like they were there since last summer, so.....I'm absolutely 100% satisfied they saw those old toothpick sized bones from a quarter mile up. Yep, I'm gonna ...

I do not like this. Its the closest to the house I have seen buzzards in over 30 years. I took the pic from the front door. Nothin' dead out there. I'm only 53. Will someone humor me........please----------Sixgun

Wow, I see a lot of cheap firewood coming your way. Neat pics----Sixgun

That is a good looking tool. I am envious of you fellas with a drill press and a lathe. I use the RCBS case prep center. It is real handy. 1886. 1886, A drill press is a must have for guncranks.

I hate deburring brass after trimming. I usually do this in lots of 100 or more and its a royal pain in the butt to use the little Wilson tool---flip--flip-flip..... Anyway, I know there are motorized tools to do this easily but I am a thrifty/cheap guy. I bought (after using the junky one for 30+ y...

I'm with Pete44ru 100%. In a way, comparing the 444/45-70 is like comparing the 41 mag/44 mag. The 44 mag. will do everything the 41 can plus a lot more when you factor in the 300 gr. bullets for the 44.

Those 4 inches of barrel length are not going to matter a whole lot.-------Sixgun

I'm with Kirk on this one. Not only do the velocities necessitate gas checks but I find gas checked bullets to be more accurate with old barrels that have bore and crown wear. I have an old '86 in 33 that I have never had luck in with cast gas checked bullets. The condition of the bore is less than ...

Its going to be a good day. I came into work, started up my forklift to warm her up, turned on the computer and read the news

Great, that has got to be a major blow to her ego. Now, lets hope the rest of the country follows the lead------------Sixgun

While I am total agreement with you boys on the "happy ending" thing, I personally would not have done that. I would have waited a bit to see how things unfolded and then make my move. Yes...I know its the righteous thing to do but...........the good guy could have been in one huge mess ha...

Nice old boxes as my good friend w30wcf accurately and honestly described the ammo. I too, collect the old boxes and lovingly wrap them in plastic wrap, but..................when I get a partial or mismatched box, I can't help but to fire a few rounds out of it (sometimes all of it!) for velocity me...

I have one of the recent runs, case colored, octagon barrel. Couldn't be happier! The problems; Won't feed resized 30-30, or 60 grain bullets, but will fire them single shot. I have no doubt that with a little fiddling, I can get it to feed the resized 30-30's, but at this point in time I have no n...

The boys at Sixgunner.com and myself have been doing it for about 7 years or so. The next one comes up in April.

Mr. 1886, loosen all screws touching the barrel, whether they are from the mag tube, barrel bands, or forend cap. Some leverguns are notorious for stringing, especially as they heat up from repeated firing. The tension on different areas of the barrel screw things up. This is why long barreled rifle...

I guess a 25 ACP fulfills the first rule of a gunfight (have a gun) but that is about it.
