    The Taurus Model 63 .22; is it any good?

    I was at a local dealer yesterday and the guy had one of these in the back for $260. He says they've been dicontinued but i still see them on the web. I know some websites aren't updated however. This is supposed to be a faithful reproduction of Browning's .22 rifle. Three questions. 1 Are...

    Spent primer missing

    I went to the range yesterday and shot 100 rounds of .45 reloads. When I picked up my brass I discovered one of the spent primers missing. I don't know when or how it exited the primer pocket but the round fired obviously. Is that anything to worry about? I was shooting 5.1 grains of titegroup...

    Tight chamber on sp101

    I've had my Ruger about 2 years now and recently it's developed a tight chamber. No matter what I shoot I have to tap the brass out of the chamber with a punch. At first I thought it might be fouled because I was firing 38spl (which I won't be doing anymore) but after a few thorough cleanings I...

    Anyone using H110?

    I loaded some rounds for my .357 mag (only 5, lucky for me if I have to tear them down) using the recommended starting load of 15 grains of H110 and Sierra 158g JSP. The Hodgdon data doesn't list a load for JSP but they and Lee list a load for H110 and 158g bullets for Hornady XTP. I figured it...

    Gun-Tite for a scope?

    I just bought a new scope for my .270 because the Simmons that came with it wasn't doing the job (and I wanted a better scope). The mounts and the base were continually working loose from the abuse. The bases and scope rings that came with the Simmons are aluminum and that scope and hardware...

    I'm going to buy a new scope. Bushnell or Leupold? Help!

    I finally got fed up with my cheap scope yesterday at the range. Not only the scope but the bases and rings. After a frustrating day at the range with my .270 Savage topped with it's package Simmons scope and aluminum scope rings and bases I've decided it's time to invest in a better setup. I'm...

    Sierra 135 grain match king

    I went to the range today with my Savage .270 Win, some 100 grain Speer HP's, some factory ammo and some Sierra 135 grain match kings. Since I was shooting for precision and not accuracy the rounds were all off vertically because the powder loads varied but the groups were good. All the ammo...

    Really HOT! load at the range

    Yesterday I was shooting my Ruger sp101 with .357 mag loads and experienced a hot load. The case was wedged into the cylinder so tight I needed a punch to get it out and the case mouth and the top 1/3rd of the case were silver colored from contact with the cylinder wall, not brass colored. There...
