Got a stevens model 67 that won't eject reliably. I am thinking that tightening the ejector would be the first attempt at a fix. Would step 2 be to buy a new ejector? I should clarify some more. It grabs the shell out of the chamber but when you draw the slide all the way back it drops the...

Loading some 38 with 140 gr jacketed bullets. Seated one bullet and it felt wierd. Pulled it out and the bullet was very loose in the case. I could easily push it in. Checked some other loaded ones with similar results. Anyone else have this problem with r*p brass? Now I have to figure a way...

I've got a model 28 I'm looking at, finish is pretty bad. but what concerns me is that the SN in a coupla places is ground off. The one on the heel/butt of the gun is still there but the others are apparently ground off along with the model number. What are the legalities of this?

I've got some 220 gr Sierra flatpoints I'm about to start experimenting with. I can't find any load in any of the manuals I've got, but the chart with the dies gives a starting load of 18.8 gr of 2400 for a 225gr jacketed bullet. I've been looking over the internet and can't find much either...

So I loaded up some jacketed 158gr 357, I used 14.1 gr of 2400 at 1.590''. I noticed one primer appeared flat, but I also noticed that this seemed significantly hotter than factory 357. I know that sticky extraction is an indicator of high pressure, but like an idiot, I fired some 38 first...

Pulled apart my old 11-87 to clean and noticed that the barrel seal is getting a little stiff. Is it recommended that I buy the Remington replacement o-ring? I've read that Teflon O-rings are a good substitute.

I'm looking at buying a 1911 and as much as I want to, I can't seem to justify the $900+ for a Colt. I want an original style 1911, so my next stop of Remington. My buddy has got one of these, and I've shot it and liked the way it shot. My question is about the durability. His gun hasn't seen a...

I'm about to load up some 357 and 44 magnum. For 357 I've got some 158gr jacketed and lead bullets. For the jacketed I figured I'd start around 10gr of 2400. My question is whether or not I need to go out and buy the crimping die. I've got the Lee 3 die set that does everything else.

I'm trying to work up a load for 357 using a 158gr speer jacketed hollowpoint. I'm using Alliant 2400. The problem I'm having is the reloading manuals I've read aren't consistent. I've got a MidwayUSA Load Map for 357 and it states the starting load at 9.7gr and 11.5gr. A Speer reloading...

I've been making light 44 magnum loads and was wondering if anyone has ever had problems with leading of the barrel.

I've never owned a 1911 and am looking at ones to buy. I'd like to buy one that is made here in the US but I realize that by doing so I am looking at spending 1000 or so. Are the Colt's worth it? Or should I just buy a Springfield? And speaking of cheaper 1911's, has anyone had any experience...
