12 gauge with 1oz. standard Lee slugs? I was very excited to obtain my new Lee slug mold, and a buddy and I cast about 60 slugs last night. Problem is I can't find data for slug loads using 700x. I have a lot Winchester AA hulls I was hoping to use, but if needed I can obtain other hulls- I just...
I'm starting my research on finding a new bird dog. Here's my criteria:
-I need a dog dog that will get along with my 2 young female beagles, ages 2 and 4, both spayed. They both generally get along very well with other dogs.
-I'd prefer a prefer a medium/smaller sized dog both because of the...
So last Christmas I made a bit of a mistake buying my 7-year-old a little .410 Rossi Tuffy shotgun- little too much recoil for him. After doing a bit of research, I came upon the ATI AR type stocks with the retractable buttstock ($50 delivered- extra $20 for thick recoil pad, and $30 for the...
How do the following measurements of cubic centimeters translate into grains? Or could someone send me to a link for a caultulator that could do this?

Thank you

I posted this over in the reloading forum as well. Hope I don't get in trouble for the double post, just trying to get as much info as possible.
I know Lee has a very good reputation for reloading materials/presses. Has anyone had any experience with the Lee Load All 2? It appears to be a great...
I know Lee has a very good reputation for reloading materials/presses. Has anyone had any experience with the Lee Load All 2? It appears to be a great buy and has inexpensive options for loading both 12 and 20 gauge shells. Would seem to fit my purpose of wanting to load 50-100 shells per week...

Does anyone here reload steel shot, or any othe type of non-toxic shot? Do I need different types of componetes (for example wads) for loading various types of non-toxic shot? I plan on doing a lot of duck hunting next season. Paying about 10-12 dollars a box for 12gauge steel shotshells and I'd...
So... As abhorrent as I may sound to most of you, I choose to reside in Southern California. I have recently become an avid wing shooter, and bird hunting is basically the greatest thing ever as far as I am concerned:D DUCKS ARE ARE RAD! I live on the southern edge of the foothills of the San...
The gun is actually an old New Haven 600AT(about 25 years old), which is the Monkey Wards/Sears rebrand for the Mossberg 500 (exact same gun). Has a fixed Mod choke, and the gun has been great for dove and quail. Also used it for ducks twice this past season, and I'm wondering if the steel shot...
Okay. Let me start out by saying that I'm super broke, and cannot afford a good solid bench press at this time. Please help me out with a few questions about reloading 30.06 rounds.
1. First and foremost, can anyone give me a comprehensive list of reloading equipment at the lowest possible...
Can someone give me a good explanation of the peening of a gun barrel? Maybe post some comparative pictures of a barrel that is peened (not sure if that is the correct use of the word), and a health barrel from the same type of gun.
As always, thank you for the wealth of knowledge this site has...
So the Ruger SR22 rifle looks like a great little tatical 22, but I'm a bit put off by the price (according to my reserch- low end being around $500). I've been reading that this gun is basically a Ruger 10/22 with a factory fitted tactical stock. I can put together a 10/22 with an Archangel...
Trigger goes "click" ant the firing pin makes a healthy looking dent in the bottom of the cartridge, but no bang. I've taken the bolt assembly apart and cleaned the holy hell out of it, and tightened all the screws upon reassembly. Also had 2 different gunsmiths try to fix it... Still getting...
The concept has my wallet's attention. Heard they are good out to about 40 yards or so which suits my range needs just fine. Interested to hear what all you shotguns guys think.
Have an old Mossburg 500 smooth-bore with a fixed modified choke. I don't have the $ right now for a riffled barrel. Are there any sabot slugs that I can use safely with this gun? Looking for kill shots on coyotes at 75-150 yards. CANNOT use rifles in this area. And most of my shots are to far...

Hi all. Just got into duck/goose hunting at the tail end of this past season. I have a few boxes of steel 3" shot size 2 and 1 left over (duck season just ended here in California the weekend before last). Running them through an old standard 12 gauge Mossburg 500 with a modified choke. Can I...
Need recommendations for attached flashlight. This is my HD bedside gun, so I don't want to skimp here. Integrated red or green laser would be nice too, but not a must.
