Looking at getting some 10mm brass and ran across 1776 USA Brass at Midway. I see they make brass for a few other pistol calibers as well. Most of the reviews I've seen are good and some are saying the brass is made by Fiocchi. Anybody here use it or have any input on the quality? I can get...

Let's say a guy, (me), wants to get a old west style revolver in the same caliber as his new lever gun, (357), and he just so happens to see 2 different models in the local sporting goods store. One is a shiny stainless Ruger New Vaquero and the other is a blued/case colored Uberti El Patron...

I recently acquired a lever gun in 38/357 which has a 16.5 inch barrel and is threaded for a suppressor. My wish is to start gathering some factory loads as well as material for handloading 38 special, mostly in a sub sonic loading. In looking thru my reloading books, it seems easy enough to...

I recently purchased a Girsan S10, a 1911 style in 10mm naturally. It has a 6 inch barrel and is not what I would call an expensive 1911. I believe it was under 600 at Sportsmans. Good news first, which was, I ran 100 rounds of 180gr S&B FMJ through it with zero functioning problems. My...

Ran across a Browning Citori 525 in 20 gauge and it seems like a nice shotgun. My problem lies in the fact that I'm an idiot when it comes to over-unders and, a few other things as well but, I digress. The 525 is light in my hands, points well, and looks really nice, as it should for the price...

I'm tired of using my plastic hammer type bullet puller and looking for recommendations for what to use in my press? I have read a few reviews on the RCBS, Hornady, and Forster brands. I noticed that Hornady states their model is not intended for pistol bullets? Are the other 2 able to handle...

So, while at my LGS, and before I even got down to look at the Browning BL-22 I posted about earlier, I spotted a Marlin 336 sitting in the rack. I naturally thought it was just a 30/30 but then saw the tag which had 308 Marlin Express on it. It even has a Leupold 1.5x3 scope on it, which I...

Been looking at a new Browning BL-22, Grade II. Nice looking little lever gun but I know nothing about them as I have always shot the Winchester 9422 and 9422M that I'm more familiar with. Those of you that have them and shoot them, what are your thoughts? Any problems or issues? Thank you.

I'm gearing up to load for the 50 Action Express and wondered if anyone had any pet loads or places to get loads as they are few and far between. I am using the latest Hornady manual, which covers only a 300gr XTP bullet. I will be using H110 for powder and the previously mentioned bullet. New...

On this Father's Day I was curious if anyone had a funny or serious firearm related story involving their father? I'll start: With my 14th Birthday rapidly approaching, instead of always borrowing one of his, I asked my Dad for my own shotgun to hunt with. My Dad was a gun guy so I didn't...

I did a quick search but if this is a repeat of a similar topic that is up to date please lead me there. I would like to try wet tumbling and I have read that the FART is the way to go for the actual tumbler. Some say pins but some say no pins, this could also be affected by de-priming first...

Ran across some Fiocchi brand small pistol primers today. $8.95 per 100. Thought about buying a couple boxes but I've never used them before and wondered if anyone here has and what they thought?

Along with the new Henry, I heard Ruger will be producing what they call the Super Wrangler, which is the Wrangler as we know it but, also includes a 22mag cylinder and adjustable rear sight. I believe the front sight is different too? For a MSRP of $329, I will definitely be interested in...

I saw some pics of Henry's new revolvers, looks like they are chambered in 38/357 for now. I will say they are different looking, I'm not thrilled with the MSRP price of $928 although I'm sure it will be somewhat lower. Thoughts?

I recently acquired a like new Winchester 94XTR in .375 Winchester that I would like to shoot some. I have hopes of finding some brass, bullets, and other components and doing some cartridge making of my own, thus saving maybe a couple dollars a round over factory ammunition. In that vein, I was...

Yesterday I went to my local private Gun Range and once inside the gate I noticed a range bag laying by itself where we park our cars. There was no one there except me and so I went over and picked up the bag, then sat it on my pickup bed tailgate. I didn't know what to do so I went through the...

Recently, I purchased an EAA Witness Match .45acp. It was used but in very good condition, and it was very resonably priced. I've always wanted one since they felt good in my hand. Today I found time to shoot it and came away frustrated with it's performance. I only shot 50 rounds, so 5 mags...

I've had one of these on order since April and still nothing. I've been to Ruger's website, their facebook page, and several websites looking for clues as to why there don't seem to be any around. Now I realize that opinions, rumors, heresay, and the like are all in the same boat as far as what...

As a huge fan of the 1911 Model, I jumped at the chance to pick up a NIB Springfield Armory EMP in 9mm for a very good price from a friend. Although I like the .45 acp better, this gun looked to be very well made and fit me very well. My problem came when I was about halfway through a 100 round...

Although I would love to have an ACOG, my present budget doesn't allow for that. I am presently trying to decide between the Nikon M-223 or the Leupold AR. I see that for roughly the same money one can purchase either. Thru the end of May, Nikon is throwing in one of their mounts free, although...
