I guess the rules of benchrest shooting have changed since this was written. When I was at the International Championship a couple summers ago I didn't see anything BUT handloaded ammo.

More of the fraud that we are supposed to accept. I am absolutely certain that the Left has started a Civil War. Nope. The left is finishing a civil war. It's been going on for many decades and they have victory in sight. Thats why it is visible now. Yep. They aren't bothering to hide in the shadow...

Ha! Me too.

Cool. Hope that means there will be some bargains on the "inferior" models. I'd really like a .357 for silhouettes and the tube loading doesn't bother me at all.

Larkbill

Thanks for making me feel better.

When we left for the "Winter of Fun" trip last year I hid most of my guns in the house and left a couple red headed step children in the safe. Somewhere in my house there is a Ruger P-95 playing hide 'n seek with me and so far it's winning.

Skinner sells a different sight for Rossi dovetails. I can tell you it's much different than the 3/8" standard. I got in a hurry and ordered the wrong one for my Rossi but rather than send it back I put it on a Stevens 325 I had and it's a marriage made in heaven.

If you ask Ruger this is something you should never do. But apparently people do it all the time with mostly good results. My SS came with a magnum cylinder that had a different serial number engraved on it, if Ruger fits it they put the number of the gun on. No history on the gun but it's one of th...

Concur on the Rossi bullet size. I struggled to get decent accuracy from mine. Finally slugged the barrel. Oops. .453.

.454 bullets solved the problem.

I think I had a mild case about 2 mos. ago. Aches, no appetite, fever up to 100.9. Lasted about 38-40 hours, but it was a couple days before I really felt like eating or going to the range. I think I got it from something I touched at the grocery store. Read a pretty good article by a research chap....

It's a good thing for that idiot that Terry Murbach is gone. He would have had the punk hiding under His bed , crying for momma ........... :D . Ha! Exactly what I was thinking.

At our pistol cartridge silhouette matches .38/.357 is by far the most popular. I have plans to exchange my .45 Colt for one eventually.

We watch news on OAN, opinion on Fox and Fox Bus. OAN isn't afraid to hire pretty newsies, but they are more girl-next-door and universally good at what they do. Reporting not opining. Tucker tells too much truth to last long at Fox but I guess ratings are still important. We also like Lou Dobbs, he...

Connery was just another Hollywood hypocrite, after making millions by waving a PPK around he was anti gun and played a part in the UK handgun ban and as for being a proud Scott he made sure non of his tax dollars were paid in Scotland. I for one won't weep at his passing. Thanks for the reality ch...

I'm afraid that much like our common language spoken differently, cricket doesn't always translate well to American tastes. But then again I'm not much of a stick and ball sports guy so what do I know? I don't watch any of it.

The .410 is pretty limited but in 20 ga you could get it done:

I found a youtube video by a dude in Australia that had the simplest and easiest hacks for reassembling a 92. The biggest tip was using a fired case to hold the ejector parts in place while getting the bolt and lever mated. Not sure about the originals, but on my Rossi that collar on the ejector str...

And yet there are still good buys out there. I live in Missouri and only rarely look at Armslist for Illinois because of their quagmire of gun laws. But did one day and found a NIB Taurus 627 Tracker for what looked like a reasonable price. Read some reviews and looked at some auctions and decided I...

How about these? Maybe they'll expand their line. Are these what are being sold in Australia?

One of the large problems as I see it is that we think we are so smart and advanced that too many of the "scientists" made stuff up instead of saying "I don't know". Sometimes that's the only correct answer.

Larkbill

Big 10-4 on the shot. I was all but out of shotgun reloading mostly because of the cost of shot. Then I inherited 100 lbs of #8 magnum so I guess "every time I think I'm out, they pull me back in". I sold my 20 ga. MEC but still have a Load All II in case I can't find any bargains.

Back when I was racing motorcycles it was called running out of talent before you ran out of speed. If it didn't happen to you then you weren't trying hard enough.

We're already in jeopardy on the First and Second amendments. In my lifetime the Supreme Court has voted on challenges to both that were decided in our favor. BUT FOUR SO CALLED JUSTICES VOTED AGAINST RETAINING THESE RIGHTS IN EACH CASE!!! This included the "brilliant" RBG. We need Justice...

I also collect old outboard motors and prior to stainless bronze was the metal of choice for high performance propellers. I have several.

I guess the question is, did they just test positive or are they actually ill? Several notable examples in the news of folks who tested positive then a week later tested negative. Did they really have it? A positive test is not a case, illness is a case. Reporting has been pretty fast and loose. The...

We can only hope that Ruger bought in because they see a chance to make money the way they always have. By making customers happy. I looked through the list of Ruger recalls and it was far from "every" new model. I was curious because I own several Rugers including handguns and presently o...

I haven't seen anyone mention Armslist here. Sort of like Craig's but for guns and associated stuff. I sometimes see ridiculous prices on there, especially ammo, but especially local dealers still have decent prices on guns and some for sale. Don't know if it made the national news but a shop in a n...

That's some pretty impressive shooting! With those chokes and loads I'll bet there was nothing but black puffs.

Larkbill - I hear you about the Harleys for sale on Craigslist. Take your pick and make an offer.... There will be A LOT more of 'em for sale in the next decade, methinks.

One good thing that can come out of Panic buying is that when things finally settle down there may be a lot of unused guns for sale In the future as a lot of these people aren t really gun people and after awhile some will try to get their money back.Reminds me of years ago when all the yuppies dis...

Here is a good one. Open Range where Boss Spearman blasts a guy through a wall with his double barrel blowing him violently against the next wall. See it here starting at about the 3:58 mark.

I feel for you guys. My range never closed and it was my sanctuary while my favorite state range was closed. I only shoot skeet at the state range but we had a group that shot every Wednesday and I really missed it. My rifle range (St Louis Benchrest Club) has limited clay bird facilities and bringi...

It must be part of being a levergunner. I never have had much use for stick and ball sports. I do watch some motorsports but limit NASCAR to a couple tracks I still enjoy. Real racing is done on two wheels. Either AFT or any roadracing. I can't even boycott movies. Haven't been to a theater in over ...

Those bulbs that fail in that manner are great fun. What happens is when the filament breaks it shorts over to the other filament. I had one of those, first time anyway, and it drove me crazy. But I saved the bulb and had a lot of fun putting it in other fellows jobs. Even the boss thought it was fu...

Wow! Beautiful. I've never tried overstaining like that but I can't argue with the success. That's great that Tru Oil has a product like that, wasn't aware. For the last 20 years I've been using a product I bought at a gun show. You apply it by hand, then sand in with very fine wet r dry paper. Fini...

Yes. That can happen if the collar doesn't stay straight. I don't remember what I did the first time but I'll bet Steve's video has good instructions for assembling. While you still have it apart get his ejector spring, it's softer. I used a spent case to compress the ejector on the bench then fed i...

I've been struggling with an Interarms era Rossi in .45 Colt trying to get minute of turkey accuracy out of it. Finally slugged it and as far as I can tell it measures .453. Worn out rifling button or did they do it on purpose? Finally have it on track using some Hornady .454 Cowboy bullets, but alo...

They missed one I see often. "Ran when parked". Of course every car ran just before it stopped running. But sellers use this to try to make buyers think it's just not running now, but did before it sat for the last decade, and after it dropped a rod or piston. I also collect old outboard ...

It takes some talking to get the AARP discount everywhere using AMAC but we've been successful more often than not. Most desk people respond well if you are just friendly and polite, I usually ask, "is it better to be a veteran, old, or corporate, because I can do it all". I still have my ...

I had to stop and think about if there actually were folks I might lend a gun to. Two of my kids have meat guns more or less on loan, I can lay hands on them if I want but almost never do. My "good" bro in law who I would trust with anything I own or care about. Unfortunately his father ca...

I see part of the problem here. You all have misappropriated the term Nerf Bars. Nerf Bars were on the back of dragsters so you could push start them with your tow vehicle (more often than not a station wagon in those days).

You're clearly a craftsman on several levels. I've accomplished building sturdy over the years but building pretty still eludes me.
