    Best ammo for deer camp?

    245 grain hard cast SWFP (429-421) 24 grains of 2400 in .44 Mag. That'll knock down anything in the lower 48 if shot placement is right.

    Plinking during a severe drought.

    We had a drought 15 years or so ago and were shooting into 3 row of semi tires filled with sand at 100 yds. That was our pistol/rifle range, If we wanted to shoot longer, we panned 20' to the right and had a 400 acre field to shoot at. We had a natural berm at 600 yds and limited our shooting...

    opinion?

    You have 2 options: You have an authentic post WW2 mix master or You can chase all the original parts down and hope it raises the selling price But, remember, it was made to go bang. It will do it either way

    Help me rate these Self Defense shotguns

    Odds are the High Standard has no disconnect, so slam firing is possible. That's when you can hold the trigger down after a shot and jack the slide, causing the HS to fire without releasing the trigger. That is a definite keeper. Dump the rest and buy a Remington 870

    Make sure the ejector rod hasn't backed out and is exerting pressure on the front stop. If it is, screw in the ejector rod counter clockwise to tighten it up. HTH

    Colt Detective Special (price check)

    I've had all three versions of the Detective Spl's and I prefer the action of the Gen 2 to be the best. I also prefer the feel of the Gen 3 with the square butt grips over the overs. So if I could find a Gen 3 DS and a gun smith who can perform the Gen 2 trigger job on it, I would have the...

    Anyone have a Beretta 8000 Cougar? Update - went back for the rifle.

    If you're worrying about the muzzle, just do the marble trick with a polishing paste, you could do the same to the bolt (without the marble) to make it shiny, but the machining would still lightly show through.
