    Bring back the 357 Maxie

    I've been looking at some of my old reloading books & notebooks, and I believe a conversion just might be possible. I was thinking about the Henry Single Shot or one of the others might be a solid test bed for the conversion. A few years ago I was a Silhouette Shooter, using a TC Super in 357...

    What's with Glock?

    I've been doing a lot of reading lately. Mostly about Glocks. When the article is a gun review the Glocks will glow! Some of the articles I been reading have been "Off the Shelf" ammunition review/testing. It seems that the Glock is at its best when left in the safe. When a Glock is loaded...

    7mm converted to 7mm

    I have a nice Remington XP-100, chambered in 7mmBR. Along with the XP, the reloading information and components have become harder to find. There is not a lot of "Chicken-Shooting" going on around here, so there isn't much of a resale market for a used XP that's going to be hard to feed. I...

    Shotguns That I Have Ruined!

    (I'm Hijacking this thread from SaxonPig. His thread was about (Collector Grade) revolvers, this one is about (Collector Grade) shotguns...) This last Christmas my son gave me a NIB Winchester Model 12. He and I gave it a quick field stripping and oiling and headed to the range the next day...

    Performance Shop/Custom Shop vs regular plane Jane run.

    Has anyone tried paper patching their favorite old rifle? Always liked the idea of a BIG, HEAVY, SOFT, and FAST moving bullet being a good choice for hunting at short ranges. :cool:

    BT99 Barrel Swap

    I have an old BT w/ about +50,000 rounds thru it. It has a 34" fixed chock (full), I would like to keep it for shooting from the "parking lot", and add a 32" w/ interchangeable chocks, for the 16 yard line. I guess my question is, "Can I just buy an used barrel and drop it in the action, or...

    My advice is...

    When someone asks me, "Which shotgun to get?" how can I really give them "good advice"? First the guy says he wants a shotgun (Just one gun) for "HD" (Bad idea IMO), and to shoot: Skeet, Trap, 5 Stand, Sporting Clays, and "small game" like: rabbits, turkeys, coyotes, deer, black bear, and don't...
