    Mauser Gurus.........

    I traded for this basket case many years ago and have never done anything with it other than buy the Fajen Maple stock. What do i have here? If the pic doesn't show well the receiver ring has "PREDUZECE 44" and the side of the receiver says "Mod. 98". This was the beginning of a "Bubba"...

    Savage pillar bedding...

    I've read several threads on pillar bedding for a Savage 10/110 and get the gist of most of it. My question is this: I have a model 12 in 204 that I just got a Boyd's Varmint Thumbhole for. The stock appears to have cross pins in it and they look like they run fairly close to the action screws...

    Savage 22's....

    What is the differences in the 93's and the Mark II's? The many different models offered is overwhelming to me. I want a bolt 22 for gophers. That's about all i use a 22 for. Currently have 2 10-22's and love them, but wanted a bolt for teaching new folks. Figured it would be a little more...

    Tell me about the Savage Model 25....

    Saw a Model 25 with laminated thumbhole in 204. Never heard of it. Odd looking action for a centerfire. When I picked it up I thought it was gonna be a 22 or 22 Mag. If I remember right it was between 350 and 400 bucks. Anyone have much experience with these?

    I have a set of crown cutting tools from Brownell's bought several years ago. It has a 90*, 45*, and 79* cutting heads. What are the pros/cons of a 45* crown vs. a 11* crown?

    Wildcatters - another 30-338 question...

    I am set now to start working on my 30-338. Starting with 338 Win brass, I understand you run it through the 30-338 die to simply neck it down. I got that part. The question is, for the initial case forming, do I full length size it and let the belt determine headspace, or leave a "donut" to get...

    7mm STW throat length?

    I have had a Remington Sendero in 7mm STW since '96 or so. Bought the gun new. When I bought it I also bought 5 boxes of factory ammo, so I could shoot right away and have brass. I finished shooting up those hundred rounds about 8 years ago and am just now developing handloads for it. Got the...

    7mm-08 Handgun load

    I have had a Lone Eagle single shot 7mm-08 handgun for several years. It has a 15" barrel with a brake. The last time I loaded for it was in the mid-90's and can't find my records. I do know that I used a 120 grn. bullet being made at the time (Hornady, I think) specifically designed for single...

    History... I have an older Rem 700 that has been semi-customized to 30-338. I worked for a family that owned a pawn shop, auction company, car lot, antique store, furniture store, etc. Me and the pawn shop manager bought this rifle together when it came out of pawn. It also came with RCBS dies...

    Moly Coating

    What happened to moly coating? Seems to have been the rage back in the 90's. You could coat your bullets, your bore, etc. All the big bullet makers offered moly coated bullets. I never really got into it, but it was discussed alot. Now you rarely hear of it. Was it proven detrimental, not worth...

    Hornady ammo question...

    Brother-in-law works all the local gun shows. While working he stays with us, as his home is about 50 miles away. To return the favor, he picks up a box of ammo for me. The last 2 times he has brought me Hornady 280 Rem 139 grn SST. Great, Hornady makes good stuff, right. Well I just went to put...
