So the oceans have risen two feet? In how many hundred years? Look up the data, it's on the web.

The oceans have risen 10 inches in the last 100 years and has been rising since...

Folks, FYI

Lee has the "Classic Turret Press", reconditioned for $82.00 on their "Close Outs" page. I ordered one this week and got it yesterday. Looks new to me.

Thought I'd let you know....

Yes sir, Dead or wounded the others will gather around. I have lots of respect for the Native Americans that hunted bison with sharp pointy things especially before there were horses to hunt from. ...

It's not 38 special but I load 6 grains in the 357 mag for a light load in the Marlin. Accurate and the kids shoot it like it is 22 long rifle.

I checked with the new Hodgdon load publication and it has the trap-door loads for a 405 cast alloy starting at 30.5 grains of IMR 4198 for a velocity of 1364 f/s which is about where the old...

An other source of fine graphite is your John Deere dealer. Sold to be added to the planter box of seed to lubricate the seed plates and/or other moving parts in the bottom of the...

My comment deals with the specific gravity of elemental gases of lead, mercury, uranium which are all heavier than air. Thus it should pool in low places. If you are getting it at...

Doc Fatley, professor of chemistry at Kansas State, told us in class that you would have to get down and suck the air right off of the floor to get radon poisoning, it is that heavy...

I really don't like cleaning out copper, never as easy as everyone else says it is. I think that any cleaner for copper will work. I have had better luck if I clean it with the...

monge has the answer from my experience. Get a 100, 300 grain Remington (because they are probably the cheapest), load up with some pleasant loads, have some fun blasting away off hand....

Good to see you back. It's always a pleasure to here about you and your family's pioneering ways. And that isn't the "easy" way. "Praise God from whom all blessings flow..."

I quit soaking my beans when my stepmother asked me "why the bother". Can't tell the difference and don't have to think ahead.

As far as I know P+ was to tell the original owner of that brass case that it was loaded a little Hot! Same other wise.

I have a Marlin 1894c so am biased. If you can come up with a good used one what ever you pay for it you will save the difference in the cost of ammo over a 30-30 in short order. It is...

My 1894c has always hit the primer off center but have never had a fail to fire. Mine has a SN that begins with 97 so it would be a 2003. With the geometry of the 1894 style bolt I...

I would be concerned about high pressures due to neck clearance in the chamber. You said that it was hard to chamber. I don't think shooting that load is a good idea. Get the 0.311"...

I've made several home made molds. The first was a u-joint cap with a slot ground in the lip with the chop saw and a handle welded on.

Then built a Rowell style made with a piece of pipe. ...

I have the TL452-230-TC and like it just fine. I roll them around in some Johnson's Paste Wax. You shouldn't need the Tumble Lube version as the regular lube groove will tumble lube...

You might try Songbird hearing aids out. I don't use them but they are priced in the hundreds of dollars instead of the thousands of dollars. More in line with the mission field I...

You need to be very careful here. It seems that all the guns around here are Marlin lever actions. I think that I need to get, say, a bolt action and the next gun that comes home with...

I don't remember what the chemistry is on these two but they are different. Borax is found in the laundry section and boric acid is found in the cockroach killing section of your...

I use an Atom Popper(TM). It looks like a straight sided wok. You can find them on the web, made in Quinter Kansas where Swift bullets are located. Has the right draft so that you don't have to...

My 1894c jams with 38s with regular OAL. If the bullet can be set out so that the OAL is 0.150" or so (don't have my notes handy) it will feed them.

My daughter's measures 15+1/8" center to center on the dove tails. This has the walnut stock instead of the hard wood so it isn't the newest 30G made but I would guess that the barrel is...
