I have the opportunity to buy a large amount of 000buckshot for about 1/2 the price I see online. The ammo is Federal premium 000 buck 12ga 3 inch. I have never used 000 12ga. Any opinions? Is it worth buying?

Still very new to SASS and saw that there is a rifle side match. I have a marlin 1895SBL in 45/70. What would it take to make this SASS legal? I can pretty easily take the rail off, anything else needed? The stock is a grey laminate. The hobby is very expensive and look at ways to save money...

been looking at an 1873 trapper (16.25 inch barrel) for SASS. Downside is it only hold 9 rounds of 357Magnums but holds 10 rounds of 38special. Will rounds in 38special brass loose accuracy in 357magnum chamber?

I am just starting to reload 12ga for cowboy shooting (SASS). I bought a few books but none of them have slower loads. I am looking for a book that has load data for 12ga that is about 900FPS. I am not as picky on the amount of shot but I would like something very slow. Not looking for load...

With the prices of factory ammo grinding up I have decided to pull out the old press and start reloading for my SASS shooting. I haven’t done so in a few years but looking to get back in to it. Any way can some on give me some data or a link to some 38 special 125 grain loads that are super...

I have found a several places that teach self defense pistol classes but most seem to not want to train us "old time wheel gunners" or they have a problem with "pocket carry". Not looking for a CCW class I am looking for the next step up. I have looked and e-mailed a few different places and...

Lets say instead of only having access to a limited number of guns, lets say you have access to any real gun(s) you want but there is 1 rule... all the guns must use the same round. This means the same round for Plinking, CCW, Home Defense, Hunting, Self Defense, Survive... every thing. If...

I was at a yard sale last summer and the woman there was selling her former husbands reloading items. I bought all the bullet molds they had. Well yesterday I was looking at one and it looked odd to me. So I decided to cast it to see what it actually made. The bullet is .3575 in diameter. It...

My son was looking for a 22lr pistol with a high capacity for plinking. Unfortunately the rimmed nature of the 22lr makes it hard to find a pistol with 30+ rounds in 22lr. He wants a very low recoil gun. Mostly for fun and possibly for teaching his daughter (currently 5 years old) So I got...

Here in 2 or so months I will be changing address. What forms to I need to fill out to take my Suppressors and SBR with me?

My youngest correctly pointed out that I have gotten hunting rifles for all of his siblings but did not get one for him. I feel like a bad father now. This son is in to the AR platform. Where we usially hunt it's very rugged nothern Idaho so lots of hiking, so a light weight gun would be best...

Going to be taking an extended vacation to Texas. My nephew has offered to let me help him on some night hog hunts. He is a professional exterminator. I believe we are using night scopes and Suppressors (I may be wrong on this). I have my rifle already picked out but I'm wanting to carry a side...

Hello I'm looking for a good place to train (self defence with a handgun) in or near western idaho. I'm looking for a place that will let me practice with my gun and with the way I carry. I have looked online and most of what I can find in my area is waist band carry or semiautos only. I carry...

Any one here ever done a 358 caliber rilfe bullet in a 38 special or 357 magnum case with any luck? I am looking for a subsonic load that is heavy for caliber.

Working on a suppressed Encore (12 inch barrel) and wondering if there is any 38 special (or +P) that is heavier than 158 grains? Looking for a bit more power but still want sub sonic (suppressed) the gun is 38/357 so a heavy subsonic 357 would work too...

38 special case, soft cast lead at 246 grains, set to a total OAL of 1.6 inches. Bullet is 1.038 inches long. 5 grains of W231 powder and a Federal Small magnum pistol primer. 1 in 14 twist rate if that makes a difference

I have the opportunity to get a S&W 627 PC snub nose for failry cheep. It holds 8 rounds of 357 magnum. I really dont "need" the gun will will buy it if they are quality. It is pretty and looks very new. What is the general opinion of these guns?

I have been doing some cowboy action shooting recently and have discovered that with a little practice its not super hard. I see there is a lot of room for improvement but I think I have the fundamentals down. A few months ago I was reading a very old time life history of the old west and saw...

I am wondering if you could up the neck up the 223 case to hold a 358 caliber bullet? It would be cool to still be able to hold 30 rounds in a standard magazine but shooting a larger than 300BO bullet. If the 223 was made a strait wall bullet what caliber could it hold?

Is there any think bigger than a 300BO but smaller than a 450BW? Some thing that uses say a 358 caliber bullet? Just wondering
