Great job on the revolver, the dice is just too cool !

Brad

Bill, very good story!

Brad

Very nice Ruger!! that would have caught my attention also
I couldnt find one with that bbl. lenght, so i went with a 454 in the Ruger Alaskan, really like it
took it out today & ran 50 rounds of Ruger only 45 colt loaded with 300 gr. cast & lilgun

Brad

Nice here today! 58 & not much for wind, after a few days of 100 mph gusts its a great day!!
I made some fire wood also today but at 66 bout 3 hours is nuff of that, Time to grab a gun & go shooting

Brad

Howdy from wyoming!!

Like your choice of lever guns, cant help ya on the new 73 much, my brother has one in 357 & he runs
it with full power 357 hand loads with no problems after 3 years

ollogger

ollogger

Dang I like that one too! Very nice
I sold some hand guns a while back & kept a Ruger 454 Alaskan as i wanted a big short hand gun, trade off
is it is heavy but recoil is not bad

Brad

ollogger

That is one cool photo ! good job with a mini hand gun, most of the time i just scare the pants off them

Brad

ollogger

Wow!!

Awesome gun for the money, where i live you could add 1500 bucks to the price & that may buy it?

brad

ollogger

I wish i could find some! the last great powder shortage i bought 2 lbs of Longshot & used it in some 357
45 colt & 454 revolvers. I sure liked it, but untill i find some i have plenty of other powder to burn up

Brad

ollogger

Very nice buck Ted!
Like the Ruger too!

Brad

ollogger

Good going! glad ya got out for one day at least & thanks for all you do for Lever Guns!!

150 FMJ intresting, sure got the job done!!

Brad

Hi & Wecome!! yea on GB you can say what you want & ask any price you want, they are a rare gun along with the 284 & 7mm 08 in that model, if a 308 is 800 bucks in that model then the rarer ones will be 2 times the money in the real world, seems like they made a 250 -3000 in that model? ...

The 30-30 is a fine big game cartridge, am sure it has taken every big game animal in north America and used all over the world, its done just fine for me, i have a few 94 Win. recently i got a bunch of 100 gr. speer plinkers, if i can get them to shoot fairly well I would think they could make a go...

ollogger

Dang that is an awesome hand gun & it looks like you can make it hit too

Brad

ollogger

At 66 the rear sight gets out of focus & my arms shake a bit, it does not matter what gun i shoot, from 22 thru 454 & i shoot the Ruger Alaskan 454 alot, mostly with Ruger only 45 Colt loads, i do tame it down some times with 200 or 255 gr. cast bullets for a normal 45 load, one thing that h...

ollogger

Very nice! I have one also, it does not have a sr on it, nor was it d&t for a receiver sight I put a 2.5 power redfield on it & what little ive shot it does seem to plunk them in real well got a bit more than 300 bucks in mine more like 400, bought it 4 years ago, they have went out of sight...

ollogger

Cool ideas on the stubby SA, i had thouht alot about it also but do to some hand problems the recoil was starting to be a factor, so i came across a Ruger Alaskan in 454-45 colt, yep its a heavy beast but the recoil is light with a 454 case & 300 gr. Lee cast bullet at 870 fps with 9 gr. of Unig...

ollogger

Nice shooting for sure! took a 94 AE with a scope on it for a 50 pack of ammo, it was fun cause i could really
put them in a nice group, then i started on one with with barrel sights, that would not score very well

Brad

ollogger

Yea as kids we found out that oak slabs were not good targets for a cap & ball revolver :shock: a bud of mine got hit by a 22 bullet that took a 90 degree turn on frozen tag alder brush that knocked him flat & bruised him badly, the bullet hit him right where he had his bill fold in his shir...

ollogger

Thought this might perk up some interest & being less handy on the computer than a 2 year old this is the only way i could get it done, i have a chance of getting a bunch of these for less than it would take to cast up & g.c. a bunch of the Lee 115 gr, bullets, any one ever try the plinker? ...

ollogger

Bizzare. I've got two pages open in different browsers... Oh well, here's the whole article: Rocky’s Reloading Room The Universal .30 Load Like many shooters, you have a .30-caliber rifle. You use it on big game. You may even use it on coyotes or other varmints, but not much. It hits hard, but it h...

Nice photos !! sorry no photos here, have a 4 in. S&W 629 & a Ruger 454 Alaskan & a S&W 642 I carry the 642 most of the time, it is far from my favorite revolver, but its just so handy to carry when i go up in the mountains i take the 454, a modest amount of Unique gives me 1030 fps ...

ollogger

Have used a 22 with deadly results, been at least 45 years ago

ollogger

If in bed i dont carry, most of the time a 642 or a lcp 380, out side around home it can go from the 642 to a Ruger Alaskan 454 if theire is a bull in the pasture, got charged by a 1 ton mad Angus bull & i had the 642 i shot him at about to close for comfort but missed the brain but that hot lea...

ollogger

I like the gun of AJMD 429, very useful for the nigh time raiders
I also like the candid response of 45colt!

Very nice work!! just for the heck of it google spainish diggins wyo.
you may get a kick out of the name

Brad

ollogger

that is awesome! so tell us if the stone hit any bone, i like a good story, i have picked up
alot of broken points in the past, i figured they was a miss?

Brad

ollogger

Good way to hang out with a coupke of buds!
have a 642 that i carry most all the time, wore out the rubber grips from the constant carry, it shoots more
to poa with a 125 gr. load but i load 158 cast +p for carry & 2 snake shot loads this time of year

An interesting side note to this neighbor, he lived by himself, didn't like or get along with anybody, and 106 of the 130+ guns were loaded. His farm is about three miles from mine.

ollogger

Well Kirk, you sure made another shinning example of finding a grand old Winchester, and a bit of help
never hurts, i made a trade the other day also but it pales in comparison

ollogger

ollogger

Have a book of Winchester fire arms & they say sn ran with the 94, that would put yours around 1939
the 64 ran from 1933 - 1957 with 67,000 sold

hope that helps!

Brad

ollogger

Thats a nice one for sure! wish i could find one around here
Stupid me i had a Baikal Remington SXS in 30-06, was a nice gun & shot well out to 100 yd. or so
some one offered me way more than i had in it so it went down the road

ollogger

ollogger

I got 3220 fps with 35 gr. of 3031 with a 87 gr Sierra out of my Ruger RSI (18 in. bbl ) no pressure signs
i really like that Ruger! but i also like my 99 & i shoot it with lighter loads & never have run it over the chronograph

Brad

ollogger

I had one i bought in 1975, it was a 44 mag. had it for a few years & it shot great, it was a blast blowing up
rats a the local dump, wish i could shoot that good today!

Every one I have ever messed with was butter smooth.

The ones ive had feed as slick as a bolt action, did you try to chamber a round by hand?

Hi and welcome from Wyoming my 1955 eyes play tricks on me also, have receiver & tang sights on some lever guns, but the newer 99s have scopes on them, and a 94 AE trapper 30-30 wares a nice low power Redfield scope had a Marbles bulls eye on a 94 & it worked good for me, but a bud liked it ...

Bought an AR 15 a year ago, have a mini 14 that was a Clinton ban gun, going to keep them both, i prefer
the Mini, are more people liking the Mini as their prices have gone through the roof compared to the black guns
or is it that every one makes an AR of some sort?

Brad

Scott My brother bought a Uberti a few years ago & shoots the heck out of the gun with not a touch of
modest loads, with his hand loads its all the way or nothing, i figure if it holds up for him it has to be a a fact the
73 will hold up to 357 mag. psi

Brad

ollogger

That is a very awesome looking gun!! sounds like i am fairly normal after all been thinning the herd the last few months, the other day i sold two Marlins a 38-55 CB & a 1894 in 44-40 and previous to that a bunch of hand guns & a few long guns, oh & a 629 with the stubby barrel, i may mi...

I hear you Scott, ive blown alot of money on S&W & Colt revolvers, never found any of them to my liking around 50 years ago i bought my first Ruger in 22- 22 mag, since then its been dozens of Rugers & many of the 3 screw model, my latest Ruger is a 454 Casull Alaskan, just load it with ...

I have loaded the long starline brass (38-55) in 2 375 Win. a 94 & a Savage 99, it was with cast bullets
and modest pressure & that combo worked well

a year ago i finally gave in and bought a ar 15, it came with magpul mags, they have worked with no problems as has the lancer & some thing else i picked up. all USA made, all my reload ammo was set up for a H&R handi rifle & of course seated to long for the ar mags, so that was nothing ...

That looks like a well done rifle, had its big brother for years in the 721, they are a nice pre 64 gun

Bought a few pounds of it during the last powder shortage, loved it in the 45 colt & 454
never shot the max load, but mostly mid range for Ruger only 45 colt, and starting load in 454
great powder
