    Storing Commerative Guns

    Most companies have offered some guns in commerative fabric-lined boxes or cases. Think about Dan Wesson pistol and hunter packs, Ruger boxed set of 50th anniversary 357 and 44 mags, S&W 50th anniversary 29s, etc. You should never leave guns in cases because they might rust badly. But what about...

    Bullet Casting for Apartment Dwellers

    I cast in my reloading room in the basement. Since this room has very poor air circulation, I bought a 4" squirrel-cage blowed, put a piece of dryer hose on either end, hang the sucking end over my lead pot, and turn it on. The exhaust end is fastened in a sguare flap vent fit into the glass...

    357 Maximum. Glad there is still brass for sale and that it is any easy round to reload.

    Shot a nice Gobbler this morning...pics

    Bob: Nice looking turkey. It'll be excellent eating with enough left over to have turkey salad sandwiches for lunch at work. I too love turkey hunting. Unfortunately, turkey hunting aroud these parts has been horrible this year. I think all the turkeys put themselves on the no-call list!

    Full length resizing

    When I bought my 28-2 in 1968 I reloaded with a Lyman 310 tool and it does not full length resize. That's when I found out the revolver's chambers were not the same size. Some reloads would fit into a couple of chambers and not others. So I sent the gun back to S&W who redid the chambers...

    What's up with Turkey Vultures ???

    Reminds me of a Far Side cartoon with a big group of vultures feeding on a carcas. One bird said to the other, "Thank God for ketchup!" In the 70s while marking timber for harvest in Georgia, I walked up to a very old line shack. Before I could look inside I heard a terrible hissing and banging...

    "Undaunted Courage"...

    Fantastic book. I read it many years ago and again in the spring of 2006 2 months after I had a hip replaced. I read it slowly along with a book titled, "Along The Trail With Lewis and Clark" while taking 6 weeks to drive their trip from St. Louis to Oregon and back. Took my "85 Ford 250 diesel...

    Bob: Mighty fine hunt and bird. Glad you had fun. Unfortunately the turkey hunting around Ohio is very slow this year. Most of out turkeys put themselves on the no call list.

    In my pickup truck camper I keep my CZ-75 with two loaded 15-round mags plus its 22 Kadet Adaptor with its two loaded 10-roiund mags. This all fits into the plastic carrying case that came with the pistol. I also carry a big coffee can full of my 9mm reloads plus a 550 box of Bulk Federal 22s...
