I used to do dry fire and it works but seems boring and onerous…at least for me.

If you can afford to spend a little bit of money, an air pistol is a lot of fun. A CO2 .177 will cost less than...

Should be fine. Over 600 gallons of propane.

As an older man (73) it is not too onerous to now have a lifetime supply. Years of hoarding, buying stuff on sale, plus now shooting less. Granted, I cannot shoot as much as I want, but I can...

Just an update wrt using paper straws for .38 Spl "shot" cups.

The 9mm straws were too large. The 9mm straws just barely fit a slightly belled .38 case but would not seat down far enough. I...

Good post. Just because something is possible does not make it a good idea.

That is a nice pattern Steve!

I used Unique for 20 ga but there are a lot of good powders. Unique is tough to get now.

My suggestion is to use a powder that you will also use for pistol or reduced rifle loads.

The way...

Maybe a wrap of blue painters tape?

At first I thought it was a joke.

Get a mini-split.

You have received good advice. I will “pile on”, with Rickf1985…buy as much of the alloy as you can. I am old and have plenty of alloy and would buy another 2000 lbs of 92-2-6 at $1.50/lb. It...

Definitely worth trying. Thanks for the suggestion.

As I said a few posts ago…this is so sad…seeing believers arguing about something that does not matter.

Generations of believers have anticipated the return of Jesus. When that happens, do...

Good to hear it went well. Heal up and don’t push it. We are not 30 anymore.

Good post. With my many .38/.357 weapons, I faced the issue of what would the .327 do that would justify adding it?

In my old age, I have become a minimalist. It did not fit a need.

It is a...

Prayers sent.

You can believe the numbers or what people say. I am a numbers guy and old enough not to trust what people say.

Stuff like this is very frustrating. I had a .22 Hornet that would not shoot even with jacketed bullets. Bought it used and sold it for at a small loss. Was worth it to me to get rid of it.

JD,
No way it has 80% of the energy of a .357 and half the recoil. The laws of physics are tough to break.

Here is something for you to play with. Works with handguns and rifles.

If it hits just as hard or harder than caliber .XXX at one end, it will hit as hard or harder at the other end. There is no free lunch.

If a smaller caliber allows more rounds in a cylinder or...

My thought as well. Could never justify spending thousands to fire one or two shots. Something like P-dog towns or iguanas seems like a lot more fun.

You will need to "kick it up a notch" on those wasp loads.

There are friends and there are "friends".

I have been asked to help my friend sell all his stuff when he passes. He has bequeathed me his Silver Sietz trap gun ($11-13k). I will sell his...

Really wise advice.

As to the OP. I have been downsizing for the last 15 years. You eat the elephant one bite at a time. Still have more stuff to sell.

I used GunBroker, and sold...

Nothing faster than BE is used in 12 ga. In fact BE is not even listed for 12 ga loads today. There is some old BE data for light 12 loads…really old data.
