I inherited a 7.35 mm Carcano and have read very mixed reviews on how safe these rifles are. While looking for ammunition, one gun shop employee said they were generally a very unsafe gun and he wouldn't recommend shooting it. I took it to another gun shop and the owner/gunsmith said they used...

I have a .308 H&R Ultra Hunter which takes three fouling shots before it is on target. Then it will shoot 2 to 3 inch groups at 100 yards. I thought it might have to do with the barrel warming up, but I shot it several times, left it dirty, and shot it several days later and it was still on...

Has anyone ever ordered bullets from Rimrock Bullets out of Montana?

I have some Hornady jacketed bullets sized to .451 without a cannelure that I want to shoot in a Ruger Blackhawk. How tight should I crimp them?

I have never shot a muzzleloader and was only around one being fired on one occasion. I never thought I would want one, but after watching the movie "Jeremiah Johnson" the other night, I got an itch for one. I probably will never hunt with it, but would certainly target shoot with it. I want a...

Shot some .45 Colt today using 255 swc's and Blue Dot. Crimped with a Lee Factory Crimp Die and used a moderate crimp. Primer was CCI 300. Shot 100 rounds and gun and hands were very dirty. Perhaps not enough Crimp?

I started out with a Lee Loader and then moved to a single stage press with Lee 4 die set. I use the Lee dippers in conjunction with a beam scale, and I weigh every charge. I always thought I would eventually move up to something with all the bells and whistles, but I don't trust the consistency...

Even though this is the internet, I'm not going to lie. I've put a little over 1000 rounds through my .45 Colt Blackhawk over the last year and half, and on a good day I can regularly put 6 rounds in a pie plate at 25 yards. I often read of guys shooting 2 and 3 inch groups at this distance and...

I have always liked the looks of the Ruger Vaquero but I was concerned with how far off the mark it might shoot horizontally. I realize that I can work up a load that will be accurate vertically but what can be done if it is well off the mark horizontally?

What type of bullet is the most accurate in your .45 Colt revolver? My Ruger Blackhawk seems to like round nose flat points in the 750-900 fps range. I've had decent success with Keith style semiwadcutters, while the 300 grain jacketed were nothing to brag about. In fairness to the 300's, the...

I have reloaded 100 Starline .45 colt cases 10 times now. Most loads have been 250-255 grain cast lead bullets in the 750-950 fps range. I clean the cases by hand using Never Dull brass cleaner and inspect each case with a magnifying glass each time. So far I have seen no defects on the brass...
