----but one of the original here on TFL, 17 years ago today. Happy anniversary to myself and thanks to TFL for putting up with me :p .

I just received all of my components for hand loading 380 acp. I purchased 500 93gr LRN and 500 95gr Rainier TMJ projectiles. I have Win231, Power Pistol, HP38 and VV 310 / 320 / 330 powders, I will be using Win small pistol primers and various once fired cases. The lovely Wife and I recently...

Just felt like posting some pics of one of my works in progress. Bought it new as a stock Stag model 3L. It now has a CMC match trigger, MagPul PRS stock, MagPul MIAD pistol grip, MagPul rail covers, LaRue Tactical SPR / M4 Scope Mount QD LT-104, Browning labeled Bushnell Elite 3200 2X7 scope...

In regards to another post questioning the fact or fiction of feral hogs causing environmental destruction and or ruining hunting, I have two views based on experience. If in the deep woods or swamps with a proper apex predator to prey ratio feral hogs are just another part of the dynamic and...

I was curious to know if anyone here has a good reliable source for ordering clays? I keep running into too many broken ones and wondered if there was a good source for UPS/FedEx/USPS delivery? Also are some brands known for being less prone to break accidently(other than the ones I miss:D ) ?

Any of you clay shooters familiar with the DO-ALL AERIAL ASSAULT AUTOMATIC TRAP thrower. I just ordered one from Natchez shooting supply. Normally it sells for $599.00 everywhere I have ever seen it. They (natchez) have them on sale for $399.00 after discount and store gift card use. I was just...

I pick up this plinker yesterday. The previous owner couldn't seem to get used to the thump when firing this three inch barreled beast. I tried to tell him that the 300 grain projectile loads he was plinking with may have something to do with it. He just wanted to sell it. :) Three hundred US...

Picked a piece or functional art yesterday(at least to me). It has some light scratches and shows some use. Personally that is fine as I wanted a shooter not a safe queen. It will mainly see light target loads with some heavy 38spl loads and the very occassional 357 magnum round. Hopefully I...

For what its worth here in fla feral hogs are considerd livestock and belong to whomevers property they are on at the time. As long as you don't intentionally torture them they are yours to kill however you see fit. On private property there is no size or bag limit. This of course allows the...

I recently acquired a Ruger Blackhawk Buckeye model convertible chambered in 10MM Auto(which I have loaded for 15 or so years) and 38-40WCF which I have never even fired that I recall. I have researched the round somewhat and it is an interesting cartridge in my opinion. I plan to start loading...

This is on the top strap on my newly acquired Ruger Blackhawk 38-40 / 10MM convertible. I know it has something to do with Buckeye sports in Ohio. Anyone know the rest of the story?

Found this online. It was everything the seller said and more. It came with both the original Ruger box, outer sleve box, plastic bag, vapor paper, re-useable plactic tie, all papers and manual. It is near mint and appears unfired(I am a very happy man). It is a Ruger Blackhawk 38-40 WCF/10MM...

Anybody know where to get the Ruger 50th Anniversary Edition 357mag Blackhawk? This is the one that is slimmer than other Blackhawks. The lovely wife wants to get me one for my birthday. I called all the local Tampa bay area shops and have had no luck. We are located in west central florida...

After reading the earlier post regarding Winchester Black Talons I figured some might be interested in seeing what one actually looks like. This photo is of three different types of recoverd projectiles from 10MM factory loads. I purchased a couple of cases very early on and I can still but all...

Fausti By Traditions Field Grade 12Ga, 28inch selectable barrel O/U shotgun. I just the other day recommended that someone that was looking for an entry level field/clays gun check one out. So I figured I had better take my own advice. I know next to nothing about shotguns period and O/Us in...

The Sportsmans Guide does it to me again. Had to have this, not sure why. (Great thing about America huh) In any case here it is. Redfield model 800625 ESD(Electronic Sighting Device). 30MM tube, It has four different size dots and eleven intensity settings. I will sight it in and give a report...

Hello everyone, Just a quick post to introduce myself and get the first post out of the way. I guess it is about time, been a registered member or whatever the term is for 4 years. Guess I'm the cautious type. I am from southern IN. originally, west central FL for the last 20 something years. I...
