I have used pumice stone to remove rust on toilets. Bought it on Amzon. Comes in a stick.

Something else went wrong. If you expected a mild load and that happened, it bears more investigation. You would have to seat the bullet quite deeply to cause a large pressure spike.
Glad you...

73, rediscovered air guns about three years ago. I decided PCP guns were my best choice. Extreme accuracy, and no cocking effort. I now have four.
No regrets.
Get your gun repaired and...

Where do you aim on one of these critters?
Exactly. The prime objective is making money. Servicing customers is a necessary “evil” to that objective.
And I do not blame them. I have no loyalty to them either. When excellent...
I regret not buying more of the Wolf and Tula primers when they were $16/k.
If we would stop pissing in Russias Cheerios, I bet we would see $35/k primers again. Nothing wrong with those...
Not a pro, but will disagree with you. I agree that for 95%, or more, of shotgunners, they could not tell the difference unless they use a pattern board.
No different than saying cast...
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.
Forum: Factory & Surplus Powder
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.
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?
Forum: Lead and Lead Alloys
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...
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.
