I have a few thousand rounds of empty .223 & 5.56 brass, and I am going to start loading for a Stevens model 200 , Mini 14's and an AR15 Bushmaster. My plan was to sort threw the brass and pick one kind to use for the Stevens for varmint accuracy with 53g hollowpoints, and use all of the rest...

I have read (on this board) that the "new" Vaquero is not as strong as the old one, but my question is: how strong are the older (pre 2005)large frame Vaqueros? are they as strong as the same vintage Blackhawk? I want to load up some hotter 45lc rounds for mine, not real hot, just out of the...

I just ended up with about 4600 rounds of 7.62x39 ammo in a trade with a good friend of mine. 2200 rounds are in tins and he says they are "armor piercing" rounds which he paid alot of money for during the ban. They are packed in "sardene" tins of 550 in wooden crates. The ammo itself is all...

a friend of mine, who has been reloading for about 45 years recently loaded 500 rounds of 38 special ammo for me as part of a trade. I have shot some of them and they seem fine, but I wanted to check with some of the experts here just to make shure they are safe. 158g lead swc with 6.5g of...

I have two 357 revolvers and I have shot them both before but never on paper, so today I went out in the sand pit to see what they would do They were both shot with two kinds of ammo in 6 shot groups at 25 yards standing, leaning over the bedrail of my truck for a brace (real scientific I...

A friend of mine has a 6 1/2" blued Blackhawk convertable in 38-40 and 10mm. and he's asking $450 for it, great shape, looks like new. I have never seen one of these guns before, what is it worth?

I have a 10/22 with a trigger job, other than that its stock and the accuracy is horrible ( 3-4" groups at 50yards) I have another Iron sighted 10/22 that is fun to shoot and I will keep forever, but I want to replace the scoped one and not dump $250 more into a $150 gun to make it shoot. I...

I have a 30-06 and 223 scoped bolt actions, and I am looking something between the two. I think I have narrowed it down to my neighbors Ruger 77 in 7mm-08 or the locall pawn shop has a Remington 788 in 243. The Ruger does not have a scope, but it comes with rings, a timney? trigger in the...

I just bought my first reloading setup and I also bought about 9000 .452 bullets at an estate sale, both 225g f.p. and 230g r.n. and I was wondering if I can use them in a 45 long colt case? I bought them for my 45acp but I am looking at a 45lc blackhawk, and that would be an inexpensive way to...

I just got into reloading and I would like a scoped rifle between my 30-06 and my 223. A local pawnshop/gunstore has a rifle with what I think is a mouser action ( I am not too expereinced in older bolt actions, but want to learn) the number on the reciever is 3191 and it is marked ...

I am thinking about buying a 625 in .45acp what is the difference between a "Jerry Miculek series" and a regular 4" 625 ? (besides the grips and about $29) also how does the recoil of the 45acp in a revolver compare to a 357? does anyone own these guns ?

I just bought a used 6" GP100 at a gunshow today, does anyone have any pictures of gp's wearing aftermarket wood grips? I want to get rid of the rubber/wood factory ones, also, how durrable are the guns compared to S&W k and L frames and Ruger "six" frames.
