I have gone over to air guns almost completely right now and will continue to do so as long as this craziness in the reloading components continues. I have 2 BB rifles, 2 .17 pellet rifles, and one...

I haven't shot a primer fired anything in something like 4 or 5 years. I am not going to pay the price being demanded for primers right now and am hording the primers I have for the future. My...

Loaded and tested 3 16 gauge 1 1/8 oz loads with Blue Dot.

Yes, I have one also although I have not used it for a few years, it always weighed accurately. james

I have gotten several emails lately informing me that I need to complete my order or that they need an address to complete delivery. These are the headers on the email. I never open these emails, I...

I have been using the carbide tools from Sinclair since around the late 80's. Still going strong after several thousand rounds. I use them in a small hand drill clamped onto the bench. Run it at...

When I was very young our next door neighbor was an older woman in in 60's. She had lived most of her life on a farm with her husband over on the border close to the Kentucky and Tennessee line. ...

My Dad had a saying, "Some people have more money than sense". He was right.

Have you tried running the case into a Lyman M die or NOE's knockoff and then seating the capsule. You could always taper crimp slightly if needed. james

I sincerely hope you are right GWS, for everyone's sake. james

I have always thought that copperheads have a vicious look to them. Like I said, the fight is on if I see one.

Guys the old days of reloading companies being owned and run by shooters and reloaders is gone forever. Vernon Speer, Fred Huntington SR, Len Brownell and others like them are not the modern...

Copperheads and rattlers are my sworn enemies. There are no cottonmouths where I live or at least I have never heard of anyone seeing one around here. I consider the copperhead more dangerous than...

The rattlesnake and copperhead have the pit between the snout and the eye that is easily seen. They are called Pit Viper snakes and poisonous. Also your snake does not have the broad arrowhead shape...

I just found this thread and I was suspecting the sear right off the bat. I have both 1903 and 1903A3 and they both hold quite well. Changing triggers can be a challenge at times or even worse it...

I have some of the old CCC .43 Spanish brass cases and they are much thicker in the side walls than the Bertram brass. Most of the early Bertram .43 Spanish that I bought split the side of the cases...

There is quite a bit of data for Herco and Unique in the older manuals on the 16 gauge. But the loads mostly are for 7, 8, 8 1/2 shot sizes. I never loaded BB or #2 shot in anything so I cannot...

I hope you have a great trip to Florida. Sounds like you have a good handle on your agenda. I am with you, this ol country boy is not going to wrestle a Python. If I can't shoot it I will leave it...

I was raised in a neighborhood where there were quite a few WW II combat veterans who fought both in the Pacific and Europe. They all had actual combat experience. Not one ever criticized the...

Nice looking shell and a very good crimp. james

Good story and well written. Nothing like the death rattle of the enemy in the afternoon. Puts a glow on the day. james

I don't know why someone would not use a 12 gauge on pigs. At close range, it will hit harder with a good slug than any lever action rifle I know of. james

Audie Murphy carried an Winchester M1 Carbine and I do believe he knew a little bit about fighting the Germans. I read his book and I nowhere found a place where he criticized it. He seemed to like...

Pig hunt, yeah maybe, but iguana absolutely. Going after them with air rifles would be the 'safari hunt' of a lifetime for this ol country boy. But at 82 I doubt it will ever happen. james

Go gett'em Tiger. The only reason I am staying with BB is because I am low on small pistol primers and heavy on BB's. james
