    Can the BHP handle +p loadings?

    The Browning High Power is such a sexy firearm and is a classic, I would look into getting one in the future and have no problem with standard 147 grain 9mm loadings(they get awesome penetration) but I was wondering if you could also shoot the hot 124 grain plus p loadings in it? I have not...

    How long should mags be left loaded?

    I have two loaded mags for both of my semi-autos ready in a safe place in case of an emergency, both are just quick back up mags. How long can they last for correct functioning being loaded? Will the spring wear out slow or fast? And should I empty a few rounds and load them back in to keep...

    Wolf 154gr sp

    How do these fire out of an SKS, I know an AK will eat anything but the SKS was more designed for the 122gr stuff. I think the 154gr would pack more of a punch at only a few hundred fps less in velocity, perhaps the weight would also make it more accurate down range and hold onto its power...

    Remington and Corbon .45 ammo

    I have been researching self-defense ammunition quite a bit lately and from tests and asking around I have found that Remington probably the best loads for the .45 acp, and the second best in my opinion is the new Corbon with the Barnes bullet. I am a fan of the .40 because of the 9mm speed it...

    Hollowpoints

    I had my pistol loaded with Remington Umc's and I was told that it was not a very good self defense round, the gun is an HK .40 full sized. I have been testing some much higher rated self defense rounds that we all know of such as Gold Dots and what not and what I happened to shoot most...

    Can you turn a BP into a Cartridge gun

    I would like to be able to turn one of my Blackpowder pistols into a cartridge firing pistol. I have two Ruger old army's in .44 Can a cylinder change perhaps turn one into a .45lc or .44 special? I know I would have to shoot only cowboy loads if I can change the gun but it would be nice...

    Effective range of 7.62 x 39

    Hey guys, I have been doing some good target shooting with my SKS , 100, 200 yards with really good patterns. I was wondering what the maximum range of the round is for hunting purposes before it drops or loses power, any good information would be greatly appreciated. The last time I went...
