    old powder

    The clue to the problem may be in the hang fires. I have had problems with some powders that were meant for heavy charges hang fire with reduced loads. Never had one totally not ignite. I think that your charge may be to light to get this powder to burn as expected. The Alliant web site only...

    White River Energetics LR primers

    I bought 2000 of these a couple months back and I am finally trying them. They have all went bang and have given good accuracy in my CVA Scout 35 Whelen. I have also used them shooting cast bullets in a 45/70 with good accuracy. Now the problems. In 35 Whelen new Hornady brass they were a very...

    Introducing, Honey!

    Rescues are the best. I have Chip a 9 year old Chocolate Lab. He is incredibly loving and last month when my wife passed away he was by her bed. He is still mourning her. All dogs are incredible but a rescue for whatever reason more so.

    **SOLD** WTS Leupold Freedom1.5 X4

    I am offering for sale a almost new Leupold Freedom 1.5X4 scope with the pig plex reticle. This scope is less than a year old and I have mounted it on a rifle but I really do not care for the pig plex reticle. Others may not agree and if you don't I am offering this at a savings versus a new...

    The worst month of my life

    On 9/8/2024 my wife of 46 years passed away from cancer. Less than 2 months after being diagnosed she was gone. The last month was awful she was subsisting on pain meds and I was waiting on her 24/7. Three hospital stays and innumerable procedures and tests. This is not a prayer request we did...

    Dentist retires!! Now what to do.

    My dentist in the past few years went through this young dentist coming in and upgrades to everything with costs going up a lot. I got a crown this past summer with all the latest 3D imaging and computer modeling. Worst fitting crown I ever had with the cost about 4 times more than in the past...

    Grain harvest 2024

    God bless our farmers. Hard work we all depend on. I spent some time in aquaculture years ago. Demanding work but immensely satisfying.

    Lyman 2400 data for 38 Special

    At the risk of beating a dead horse I want to add one more comment. I know back in the late 70's and early 80's I used 2400 in 38 Special cases using Skeeter's load info. I recall doing so but the exact charges have long since faded from recollection. I tried these because I was a Skeeter fan...

    .357 as a EDC?

    My EDC is a PC Model 19 Kcomp 3 inch or an older Model 19 2.5inch. Yes 357 are noticeable but everything is a tradeoff somewhere along the line. I opt for a little more power.

    I really enjoy those old Perry Mason shows. Head and shoulders above entertainment compared to the sewage that is on these days.

    Posterior Vitreous Detachment PSA

    I had the same problem in 2019. Was told the same thing about a month or two. Well 5 years later I still have problems with the eye. No floaters or sparks but if I focus on something more than a few seconds like crosshairs they blur. I to was 66 at the time

    Light primer strikes 686-6

    Sounds like another action job from Bubba's Kitchen Table Gunworks. Any used revolver with a very smooth action and light trigger always gets a pass from me. As far as any new revolver that gives light strikes first thing the grips come off and the strain screw is checked to see if it is in all...
