    Garand ka-boom

    Hopefully I can get photos uploaded soon. Last weekend I was shooting my Garand for the first time in about 3 years. The gun had perhaps 200-300 rounds through it since I got it through the CMP 18 years ago. Almost all these were reloads, a standard mid-range IMR-4895 47gr with a 150gr...

    45-70 BFR sight/spring questions

    Does anyone know what the factory sight height is on the 45-70 BFR? I'm looking at the fiber optic replacement front sights, they don't say on the website what height is factory. Also, anyone know if the Super Blackhawk hammer spring fits? I've already gotten a couple FTF from the factory...

    Hunting revolver advice

    I currently own a Taurus Titanium Tracker (4" barrel) in 41Mag which I purchased as the best combination of power and weight for backpack hunting. For that purpose, I am still very happy with my decision. I have worked up loads for 250gr hardcast (bear defense) and 210gr jacketed hollowpoints...

    Kydex holster for Taurus Tracker?

    I have a Taurus Tracker (titanium 5-shot 41Mag to be exact). The perfect holster for my purposes would be a Kydex paddle holster but I can't seem to locate one. Anyone have a source for one, or suggestion on another hip carry fast release holster for this revolver?

    Taurus 85 concealed carry holster

    Two of us are looking for appropriate and comfortable concealed carry holsters for Taurus 85s. I carry my auto in an IWB and was considering both IWB and pocket holsters for the little revolver. Any recommendations are appreciated.
