    So, NOW what happens? (Remington)

    Recent articles show Remington will be closing several plants and laying off workers due to their B/K situation. A lot of folks on gun boards have been slamming them for poor mgt, poor QA/QC, and on and on -I get that. But what about the ammo plants? I LOVE those Nitro Gold 12 gauge shells...

    .22 LR ammo issue

    Went to the indoor range today with a wide variety of handguns, including several .22s. Brought some old Rem Thunderbolts to just use up. These are about 15-20 years old. NONE would fit in the chambers of my K-17 or my MKII - it was as if they swelled - for lack of a better term - and they...

    Best bullet/powder combo you've found for 9mm Glocks?

    Starting to finally get to the point where I need to get some more 9mm bullets for my 26, 19, and 17 (along with a few other 9mms). This isn't for competition but SD practice. I have, in the past, found them to prefer 124 gr bullets, and I have used Remington - both JHP and GS, Western NV/West...
