A guy at a gun show told me his buddy had a cannelure tool that was adjustable for calibres. I have wanted a cannelure tool for some time but have never come across one. Guy didn't seem real knowledgeable on loading, so I don't know if he was blowing smoke. Anybody up on this subject? Any info...

10th hr. problem. Got Ruger 3 , anybody know what scope bases fit. Weaver or Leapold type will do. Ruger dropped factory.

I came across posts of guys looking for pewter. I keep going back to see what purpose it serves in bullet alloy. It so happens I have several lbs. but never used it to cast bullets. Anybody going to tell me the secret? I live in a area that had many industries. I loaded a lot of ammo that was...

Have chance to buy 6 boxes of Herters 45/70 for $120. Seller not gunman, doesn't know anything about the ammo, bringing it in AM. I know nothing about Herters ammo. Is there 20rds in box? Brass any good? Is $20 box good deal? New Ohio rifle deer season starting Monday, 45/70 in short supply in...

I picked up a 22/32 kit gun on a trade, 2" snubby. I carry a 422, 4" when I'm fishing and goofing off in woods. I shot snub off bags, 15 yds is about the limit of accurate shooting for me and my eyes. I have 4" m-34 & other 22s that are good accurate guns, am I expecting to much out of snub? I...

I just finished another 10/22 upgrade. Volquartsen target hammer, about $35 from Midway. 10/22 plastic/ camo stock, 50th. Anna. model. I have done 3 of these in last month. Gritty trigger groups, slop, plastic trigger housing and you have to relieve mag well of mould marks and camo wrap. I...

I have old Ideal Gould Express HP 330gr 45/70 mould. I have read the old Buffalo hunters put a 22 blank in the hollow point to make explosive bullet. I made up 6 , shot them into rock ledges at 50yds none of them went off. I used Rem. Ramset 22 shells. Checked shells they were good. If they...

Picked up BSA Martini, small cadet type, Aussie issue. .22 cal, some type of wildcat built on 357 case. In Ohio we have new rifle deer season, limited to min. 38 cal, or bigger, with straight rimmed case. Thinking of rebarreling to 375 Win. Anybody had experiance with this action. It's a pretty...

I have 16" barrel Marlin 336 carbine, 30/30 cal. Have been loading 110 gr. Speer Hp. at approx. 2700fps, shot 3" at 100yds/ 3x scope. Tried other lite bullets, no better accuracy was found. Then I decided to try a pointed Hp. 130 gr Speer, 35.5 gr Win 748, Win LRP at approx. 2650 fps. Benched...

Ohio has new deer season for rifles in limited calibres. I find myself with only a Marlin 45/70 to use this year. I want to build single shot 375 Win. Out of a BSA Martini wildcat that I picked up cheap. My big idea is to load it with Speer 235 gr spitzers, a good shooting bullet in 375 H&H. I...
