    Cataract surgery

    Recently had cataract surgery and now my close up vision is shot. I can’t see the front sight of my pistol without reading glasses however, if I use my reading glasses I don’t see the target. Now with a rifle and a scope, I can shoot better than ever. This doesn’t help me with my glock 43 for...

    Rifled barrels

    I know it has been discussed many times and I shoot sabots in my rifled barrel shotgun But if we shoot lead cast bullets out of our revolvers and jacketed too along with our hunting rifles like a 45-70 etc, how is a rifled barrel shotgun any different from a pumpkin ball or a sabot from a...

    NY bill

    What causes a primer not to work

    I shot probably 50 of my cowboy loads in my 45-70 today using the Buffalo bore case with a small rifle primer . I get great accuracy and doesn’t kill my shoulder. Today I got one that was a click, no go. Nice deep impression so it’s not the gun. Powder never ignited at all. Doesn’t this happen...

    I like gun leather

    There I said it. I bought newfangled plastic holsters, soft cushy holsters but nothing beats gun leather from a well made source for my handguns. No more kydex for this old man. Plus it doesn’t take the finish off my gun
