Given the factory loaded offerings and benefit to be had frim handloading Im gonna go with the 44Spl. Ive had more fun with that cartridge than any of the others.

Ill go with the old fart mentality, with which I agree. Just seems like it cant be good for your optics window, the coating and unnecessarily hard on the mount. I bet they think it looks cool though, and it must be if youre seeing it on YT too!! So tactical. Emergency(hand or arm has taken a...

Agreed. An extraordinarily beautiful 1911.

YES SIR!!!

Thank you my friend. And I just discovered something, the bix is not the original box!!. I just noticed that. I bought it used and just assumed it was. Its for a 4"686 but not a + model and the serial is different. Disappointing.

^^^^^THIS^^^^^

Not according to Remington, Remington says that 5.5's simply have a thicker cup for high pressure cartridges to prevent the cups from flowing into bushings. Otherwise same compound, same temp etc as the 1.5's, but thats just what Remington says. I just went through this very thing with these...

You can tell 'Ol gunblue490 is frozen in time so to speak. Hes funny. I personally like most of his videos if for no other reason than to listen to someone else who you can tell is passionate about guns. I dont always agree with him that for sure but I wont say Ive never learned anything from...

V has several online load manuals. 340 by the way is a fantastic all around powder and is a great performer in my 44spl. Im sure Ive at least tried it in the mag but dont have my info handy.

Kinda what Im seeing as well

Heck I did that 15 years ago. I could feed me and mine that way. I even make my own equipment, right down to the string.

I have to disagree here. The benefit with building your own IS quality Control. You control the quality by your own research. With some reading and questions and heeding advice of guys dedicated to this caliber, 6.8SPC (6.8Forum) you will not go wrong and end up with a far superior rifle than...

Ill give you your rant, its totally valid. However, I recently found a 4" 586 on GB and like you say, the seller was definitely no photographer. Naturally it didnt sell and he relisted it. Now he did have a 3 day inspection , something I consider a must if Im going to even consider buying, ut...

And I though I had an odd couple.

I will soon have one of the newly released Berretta A300 Ultima Patrol 12gauge. While the Patrol is a new model the 300series is not, its been a proven performer, AND, I actually got to shoot one last weekend and Ima tellin you it rocked, and the guy didnt tell me he had loaded it with some 3"...

I bought one of these to replace a borelight when buying. Tells you way more about the bore and chambers. Theyre a 90 degree scope with pretty amazing picture clarity and quality. I didnt buy it just for buying but also for both long and short term maintenance. It fits in a nice small zippered...

Hinestly I bought the one I bought because the guy was a gun-guy who also happened to be a bigtime, serious machinist. May have been the other way around, either way he made this thing with super tight tolerances and really smooth action, in Michigan, the U S A! Therr are still some fine...

While Im just not a very big fan of revolvers with barrels over 5", and 5" is the max, except for a model 27 and every single one in this thread is just gorgeous. Congrats to all. The example pictured in post 13 is just stunning. The OP's gun, due to its rarity is about as equally beautiful!!

I agree completely about buying an AR that youre houng to take a bunch of stuff off and replace with other stuff, that you have to buy. Why do that? Just source the components and assemble iy yourself. Less waste. Id definitely go with the 6.8spc. Great hunting bullet selection. Not just for...
