    Taylor Arms quality / accuracy

    I may pick up a Taylor's 38-55 High Wall. It is a nicely put together rifle and looks great. Here is the big question....Like so many 38-55's from anyone that ever made them the big question is accuracy and bore size. Does anyone have any experience with one or with Taylor in general? Before...

    Interarms Whitworth

    Do any of you have any experience with the Whitworth? I am being offered a 458 Win Mag which I would have reamed to 458 Lott. Nice looking wood, with ebony forgrip cap, Mauser action, light (8#), brutal at that weight by the way. What do you think it is worth? What about accuracy...

    Winchester Closing?

    I overheard someone say at a gun show this last weekend, Winchester was closing it's doors at the end of the month. It will cease all US production. Has anyone heard the same. There is nothing about it on their web site or anywhere else that I can find. Thanks.

    .357 or .44 for CB Action

    I have a pair of Ruger Vaq's in both .357 and .44. The .357's are 5.5" and the .44's are 7". I like the prospect of shooting black powder cartridges in the the .44 and the look of them. The question I guess is which of the two work the best for CBA? I am new to the game and weather...

    .218 Mashburn Bee

    I just had a new .218 Mashburn Bee barrel put on a low wall action and am having it restocked. There is not a lot of information about the Mashburn Bee which is simular to the Ackley Improved versions of several cartridges. If any one out there has one and is reloading for it any pet loads /...

    Virginian Dragoon Help Needed

    I just bought an older Dragoon, .44 Mag. It needs new grips and a blade for the rear sight. It has a groove just in front of the sight which makes it look like the revolver could be used either with the adjustable rear or the groove. Does anyone out there own one that can tell me something...

    Virginian Dragoon Question

    I just picked up a 44Mag. Dragoon. This was imported from Switzerland by Interarms in the late 70's and early 80's. For a couple of years they were made in Virgina. It is a huge frame single action with a great trigger and shoots very accurately. The grips have been abused however and the...

    PUMA 357 & 44 Mag.

    I just bought a pair! Wow am I ever happy. Winchester needs to learn a thing or two about delivering a smooth action to a consumer! My rifles which I tried out today are great. Both were smooth, accurate and a pleasure to shoot. They digested anything fed to them and drilled great groups...

    358 Shooting Times Alaskan

    Does any one out there have any experience with this round. From the specs I have read, it would be a great big game cartridge suitable for anything on 4 legs in North American. According to what I have read, it should push a 250gr. bullet around 3000FPS and a 225 around 3250 with 5200 fpe. I...

    Puma lever gun opinions and ratings.

    I just bought a Puma 44 Mag./24" barrel/ case colored & blue. I tried the action in a store and had talked to a couple of guys that really think theirs are great. I would really like additional feed back if you all would be so kind. By the way I went this way because: I liked the smoothness...

    Para Ord LDA reviews

    I have read some negative comments about Para Ords LDA's. I have a 6.45 LDA with a 3" barrel. While I havn't put a ton of rounds through it, I havn't had any problems and it has the sweetest trigger of ANY 45ACP I have ever fired. The question to all of you is; What do you think of the...
