Just the thread on Hi-Tek supercoat runs to 372 pages.
The lever action section has 6483 threads and over 92,000 posts.

That site and here are about the only sites I visit every day.

It's highly likely that dead guy at the end came in unarmed and when the girl found the gun laying loose on the floor, she picked it up and the evil in it made it go off Unfortunately, that really is the mentality of the anti gun lobby. They really do believe that if you take all the guns off the g...

Hard to believe the Peoples Republic of Kalifornia is part of the USA. Sounds more like part of the UK, or OZ. Here in OZ you have to produce your license to buy powder, ammo, etc, and the LGS are obliged to keep the details in a purchase record book. Your liberal democrats must be a heck of a lot d...

So, correct me if I'm wrong.

Because this is a national park, the Burmese python which is an invasive, introduced species, which threatens the entire ecosystem in the park, is protected by the national park?

Have I got that right?

Gay or otherwise, sheep are sheep, and when the wolf comes into their paddock they will all run into the corner of the paddock and hope the wolf picks some other sheep.
What we need in this world are more sheepdogs, and less of the nanny state mentality which punishes the sheepdog for biting.

Looks like the meat in those monster snakes could feed a lot of hungry folks. The Burmese pythons go about 60LB full size in the wild, and Burmese are what you've got in the Everglades. One article I've read suggests there may be upwards of 600,000 of them in the park. If my calculator is to be bel...

So, if you were interested in a 45 Colt, would you get the Rossi in 454 to get the hardier rifle? Not unless you can find and afford 454 brass. Otherwise you would have the same problem that 357 shooters have when they feed their guns with lots of 38 spl brass, crud buildup. What I would probably d...

I would think they would declare them a pest to be shot on sight.
Tell the locals they are delicious, nutritious, and taste like 60 lbs chickens

As for the lizards, I saw a doco on them and they were iguanas.

There is another item to consider when deciding between the 92 and the 1894 Marlin. Recoil. I use a Marlin 1894 in 357 to shoot a 180 grain bullet at 1750 fps, to knock down 200 meter rams in cowboy silhouette. It's fun, but that's a maximum load so I only use it about a quarter of the time and a li...

I enjoyed watching that, thank you for posting.

I don't know about putting a saddle on him, but a sulky or buckboard behind him would be useful.

If you already have a couple of 30-30s why not try something else. 357 is cheap to reload for, especially if you cast your own bullets. Brass lasts forever, and a can of powder gets you hundreds of rounds. My 200 meter silhouette rounds are pushing harder than most people push their cast 30-30 round...

If you are looking for a Win 30-30, you can find good shooters on usedguns for about $700 -$750. If you want something a bit different to everyone else and willing to pay a few extra bucks for it then $850 is probably not a bad price if the gun is in good nick. There are some fancy Win 30-30s on use...

I'm guessing accuracy would be a big reason for handguns being poor bear stoppers. How many people can shoot straight with all that brown adrenaline running down their leg. An animal full of adrenaline takes a lot more stopping than a calm one, as any hunter knows. I would guess the only way to stop...

I was worried about the last bloke you guys put in the whitehouse, but this time you've got me really scared.
I don't know which one of those two would be more dangerous, not just for you guys, but also the rest of the world.

How many ferals do you come across that wouldn't call it a day after being shot, regardless of caliber. Of those that won't go down to a 9mm, I wonder how many wouldn't go down to a hand cannon either. As far as "the shootout" is concerned I've seen the video, and if a bunch of ferals with...

The 336 is designed for the 30-30 at 42,000 PSI. The 358 Win is a necked up 308 Win, designed for rifles that can handle 62,000 PSI. You could down load it, but the first time somebody puts a factory round into that rifle, they are going to find their fingers, their face, and their rifle, scattered ...

Anybody know who makes the muddy girl gun stocks. I've got a 13 YO granddaughter I'm trying to entice into the shooting sports and I reckon I could sell her on the idea of a BL22 with muddy girl stocks. Especially since her mum sells fingernail patterns and the muddy girl pattern is already availabl...

Gutting him would have been awfully messy.

A slightly straighter shot and you might have turned him into a squirrel

Seeing the two side by side I think the Henry has cleaner lines, apart from the S shaped recoil pad. For the competition I shoot a set of open or peep sights are required, and for a hunter, the trip would be over if you broke your scope. My only other gripe is that both Browning and Henry have forgo...

It certainly isn't the ugliest levergun I've seen.
It will be interesting to see how it holds up against the BLR.

gundownunder

KWK, I don't know if it does any damage in the leverguns but I know 10 rounds will heat up the barrel a lot more than either 2205 or 2400 does. I would think top strap cutting could become an issue in a revolver, with sustained use. I will probably go back to 2205 after my current can of Lil'gun, ma...

I'm with Blaine, If some random stranger asked me what I was carrying I'd get real cautious, real quick. Also have to agree with what wecsoger said, if you were called out, you weren't concealed. Take it as a lesson, find a better way to carry. We can't carry in Oz so I don't know what I'm talking a...

I used one of those saw horses for a temp solution when I moved house and it was a pita. Because of the leverage you get from the press handle the horse will want to tip toward you on the down stroke and away from you on the up. I mounted the press to the end of the horse and then sat with my legs d...

I use Trailboss for my low loads. I started with 2400 for full loads, then went to 2205 (4227), I'm now using Lil'Gun. I never tried Win.296/110 mainly because I have heard it is fussy about load density and also needs a magnum primer to make it reliable. I have also heard good things about an Allia...

Marlin cowboy .357 with 175gr rnfp @ 1750fps. If they're mud caked I'd still feel safe giving them a smack under the earhole.

No Blaine, it's turd, like in turd base in baseball.

I find the buckhorn sight system to be rudimentary at best. It may work fine for minute of deer but I have shot thousands of rabbits and no deer, and these days most of my shooting is targets and silhouette so I need something much more accurate. I'm with Bagtic on this one. My 32-20 is my only open...

I've used my Lee challenger press for the past 10 years with no complaints. Not being a volume shooter I don't really need to churn out several hundred rounds an hour. That said, I have looked at getting a turret press a couple of times to make setting up easier. I seem to recall when I was reading ...

Jeepnik, they did, and rabbits too. Actually the history of the invasion of rabbits across Australia makes amazing reading, their ability to survive and thrive is astounding. Those cultured English gentlemen had to have a little sport to remind them of the old country. A shipload of deer would have ...

It may look like a dumb idea from where you are sitting, but I sure wouldn't want to stand down range and lift me kilt in his direction

The single shot version, modified to include a good set of sights, might make a stealthy small game hunting weapon.

They're foxes, and we aren't falling down on the job. Those things breed faster than we can shoot em. Unlike you guys, we are in summer now, and foxes breed in springtime. We are currently overrun with baby foxes, and they're so dumb that when you sit under a rock outcrop and whistle them in, they w...

Funny thing about statistics, sometimes they prove exactly what folks don't want them to. example; Here in Australia in April 1996 we had the Port Arthur massacre in Tasmania. Little Johnny Howard was prime minister at the time, and he said," I'll fix this problem". He made a lot of guns i...

I know you said you don't want internet wisdom, but how about a bit of pure mathematics. I just did a bit of number crunching based on Hornady bullet data, Pointblank ballistic calculator, and Lee second edition reloading manual. I did the maths on 30-30, 32 special, and 35 Remington. If you want to...

If he isn't raiding the chook house I'd be leaving him alone. They are a truly awesome lizard, with razor sharp claws and teeth. The one in the article is a Lace monitor which grows to about 6 foot 8 inch, the Perentie is even bigger at up to 8 foot 2 inch. Apparently these monitors are a close rela...

ADI markets it as trailboss as well. I bought a 1.5kg (3.3lb) bottle about 5 years ago and am still using it in my Marlin 357. I like 5gr behind a 175gr 360640 which I use for pistol caliber silhouette. That's all I use it for as accuracy is only about 2" at 50 and I can't improve on it. I trie...

See, told you her instincts would show.
She may not retrieve the way Tia does, but I bet she will show you where them wabbits is hiding, and maybe the foxes too.
If you can't train her to retrieve, then the exercise of doing your own retrieves will be good for you

gundownunder

I'd be surprised if the dog didn't have some kind of hunting instinct. Will she chase if you kick up a rabbit for her? Terriers and whippets were never bred to be gun dogs, they were bred to do the dirty work all by themselves.
