Anyone loading for the .405? I am shooting an 1885 Winchester High Wall. Interested if any of you have any pet loads. I want to develop 2 loads, one load in the 200 to 250 range, and a 300 gr paper patch load. I have heard that .40 cal pistol bullets can be used with Unique for deer...

Our late whitetail season opened today. While I was feeding cattle, I spotted a nice doe bedded in some brush. She did not pay me much attention, and when I was done feeding, I grabbed my rifle and put a bullet between her eyes. Brain shot. I went immediately to the animal and field...

I am about to obtain a Rock Island Armory M1903 Springfield rifle. Serial # is 225XXX Under the 300,000 number considered by pundits to be "safe". I have heard the horror stories about the brittle receivers, however, this rifle survives. In spite of over a million rifles made and shot, It...

This is going around the internet, the included link appears to be valid. Ammo Confiscation (*Many* Americans are scared-to-death at what's coming....) The bill that is being pushed in 18 states requires all ammunition to be encoded by the manufacturer in a data base of all ammunition sales...

I am wanting to suppress a couple of rifles, and there seems to constantly be questions on paperwork and permits and what we must do to get a legal muffler for a rifle. I would hope that some good advice comes to this question and perhaps it could be placed as a sticky so we have some roadmap...

Kansas just voted to approve full auto and silencers. My question applies to silencers. If I wish to legally obtain silencers for firearms, what is the process? I read here all the time that different ones of you do have silencers, but I dont, because we have not previously been legal to have...

Anyone loading and shooting BPC? Here are 3 loads I use in my original 1873 Trapdoor Springfield. FFg powder and 1/20 bullets cast on original design. .45-70-500, .45-70-405, and .45-40-3ball. These loads are accurate to 300 yards. The 3 ball guard load is a good 75 yard coyote getter.

In conversation with a friend near Charleston, WV, I got a quite interesting story of shotgun terminal ballistics. This happened Thursday of this week. It seems that two fellows had a pick with the party of the third part, and proceeded to his home to pick a fight. The two fellows in mention...

I just discovered that I have about 50 Hornady 250 gr XTP bullets. They are the big old honking six sided hollowpoints. I removed these from a bunch of Thompson Center muzzleloader sabots that I would not put in my .54 rifle. I hate to see them go to waste, and since I am out of all but...

Has anyone had any luck with them? My STI feeds SWC's like grain through a goose, but I have not tried any Keith bullets in it. I do however, run Keith bullets exclusively in my .45 Colt. I have several boxes of 270 gr's for it, but would like to try some 250's in the ACP. My logic is that...
