I got a message a couple of weeks ago about the new 2024 Hodgdon reloading manual would soon be available on a certain day. So I ordered one on the very day it came out. I've been wondering about some of the new powders that have come out in the last few years and what kind of performance they...

I was just on the CMP website and they list numbers below 800,000 at the Springfield armory and below 285,507 at the Rock Island armory as low numbers. Are there any markings to tell from what armory a 1903 was manufactured? My serial number is a 373,5xx.

I've got a Remington speedmaster 552 that I'm curious about so any help would be appreciated. If I understand correctly the date code is on the left side of the barrel. The numbers are J D P 5. It has the 23.5 inch barrel. Don't even remember why I bought it just found it in the closet hiding in...

Anybody got any info on this new cartridge other than what is on the internet I saw a flyer for a gun store offering the new S&W in it.

Last year I purchased 3 rifles that are Savages. Ok technically one is a Winchester but it is in a Savage caliber. A model 54 Winchester in 250 Savage minted in 1927, a new Savage Axis in 22-250 and a model 99 takedown in 300 savage 1926 or 1927 production I can't remember off the top of my...

I'm trying to find out what the value is of a K98 mauser. It is a refurbished Yugo 98 but not all numbers are matching. The bolt number is different from all the rest. Aside from that this rifle is in pristine shape with an almost new looking stock. The stamp on the side is Mod 98 not Mod98/48...

I bought a fine old model 99 savage in 300 savage, recently and in doing some research on it I was somewhat dumbstruck by the fact that almost nobody has mentioned the fact that this year the 300 savage celebrates its centennial. Designed in 1920 it was first chambered in 1921 as far as I can...

Is this the epitome of 38 spl revolvers or does the hipe exaggerate the truth of this gun?

I for one am slow to jump on this train but I’m curious as to what others have to say about it. Do you love it, or hate it? Is it really all it’s cracked up to be? Do you think it is the one all do all cartridge that we have all so longed for? Will it fall flat on its face like most of the short...

Dogs are allowed to be used in hunts for hogs and bears, for that matter, in my state so my question for the panel is this: If you should shoot a hog or bear that has been chased towards you by someone else’s dogs should you keep it or does it rightfully belong to the owner of the dogs? I know...

Just picked up an old 32-20 Spanish off GunBroker and was wondering if anyone has any experience with one. The only thing that I have found is that it is patterned after a S&W hand ejector, or so I think. Some were made after a Colt pattern and look very much alike the only thing I see different...

I got one of these off of GB some time ago a two cavity 160 gr but haven't found any load data for it. Does anyone have any idea where I can find any?

Does anyone know of a good source of butt stocks for an old double barrel shotgun. This is an old Eureka Gun Co. made by Hopkins and Allen. I'm sure it will have to be custom fitted.Don't know why I even got it I guess cause I just can't say no to any 16 ga.

I picked one of these up today for $200 now I need to know what I've gotten. I'm sure it has no collector value as it has been drilled and tapped for a scope and has a fiberglass aftermarket stock on it and a cheap scope mount. From what I can tell it is the short rifle. It seems to have a...

I have heard all the ruckus about San Francisco and the very anti NRA bill they passed and just to let everyone know that my home county, Blount county, earlier this year became the 2nd county in Tennessee to become a sanctuary county for the second amendment. You folks may want to consider such...

Hey folks I am going to toss out an idea about a 250 Savage that might be silly but here goes. How cost effective would it be to get a budget rifle in 22-250 and have the barrel bored out to 250 Savage? Or would it be cheaper to just rebarrel to a 250? The only thing else that might be an issue...

Is there a rule of thumb maximum for cylinder gap for a revolver ? I got a couple police trade-ins and they both have more gap than I'm used to.

Has anyone ever tried or seen any load data for this combination of bullet and case. Since the 9mm is loaded up to 35,000 psi it would seem like a natural fit being that it is a gas checked design.Any help on this would be greatly appreciated.

Hey folks I have been pondering the thought of an attractant for deer and wonder what you think.Now here in Tennessee we are not allowed to hunt over bait however,you are allowed to use attractants.I have tried doe estrus with no luck so what about a saline solution.We all know deer like salt...

What are your thoughts on the Del-ton D-15 ?The reviews I've read say it comes with a 1:9 barrel but this one had a 1:8 stamped barrel. thanks
