I have a model 627 that seems to be a bit picky on primers. Had a few light strikes with CCI and pretty good success, so far, with Federals. I have some of the older Blue Box Winchesters and some of the newer Red Box Winchesters. Does anyone have enough experience to tell where each of these...

OK, the background, I am 68, have had BPH for several years, took Doxazocin and it work OK. Tried Flomax and nothing but dizzy. Now its time to finally do something a bit more invasive. I know I am going to get the horror stories here but I really am stuck between two options. I don't want to...

The bride and I have been doing some traveling lately, nothing serious or long and along pretty much the same interstate which means we gas up in the same 2 or 3 places coming and going. It might just be in my neck of the woods of Western Kansas but we get travelers from all over the U.S...

.204 34 Grain Nosler HP (SHOTS) | RMR Bullets New to the 204, components are difficult to find, especially brass. I am patient though. I have tried the Hornady 32 and 40 VMax. So has anyone used the Noslers linked above and what were the results? TIA

I seem to be on a roll with some companies taking care of me, Cabela's first and now InLine Fabrication. In a world where customer service isn't always at a premium, I have to share when someone goes above and beyond. Dan at InLine is a great guy, excellent communication and his products are...

Earlier this week my wife and made a trip to Wichita which is about 70 miles north of us. She has been wanting some new binoculars and I have been eyeing a rangefinder. We had looked at the Vortex combo set both at the Cabela's in KC and on-line and decided to take the trip and buy in person...

I have read the comments about the museum at Cody and Little Big Horn for several years. They were on my bucket list for some time and something always seem to come up, Covid and little things like that. We finally made it last week, leaving from central KS. Hit some places in Nebraska (my...

Long shot but here goes anyway. I have an early Colt Woodsman 22LR, 1918-1919, looking for an extra magazine or two or whatever.

We are getting a new Dunhams this spring. Going in a really large space in a mall that was formerly occupied by Dillards. I have heard of them but have never been in one of their stores. What little I can see on their web sites looks like they have reasonable prices and decent sales. I don't...

A friend has the room to build a pistol range. Rifles may be shot but this is only going to be a 50 yard range. We know they recommend at least 12 foot high berms. He has started with railroad ties, two layers deep and a dirt face. The big question is what material works best for the face so...

I recently learned of a breed I have never heard of. The Small Munsterlander. Anyone have one or know anything about them? The last dog I had was a Brittany many years ago. My wife told me once I was retired I could get a dog again since I would be home to take care of it. So now I am trying...

I must be missing something as I have never had this much trouble working up a load for a 9mm. I have had this CZ P 10C for a little over a year and am just now getting time (retired) to reload some ammo for it. The target picture that came with it showed 5 shots, two slightly below and to the...

This aging thing is not for sissies that is for sure. Turned 66 last February, work out most every day so I am in pretty good shape overall. Getting more time at the reloading bench now. But geewillakers I seem to drop things a lot when I am reloading. Bullets, brass and of course when I am...

Need a Medium/Black backstrap for a CZ P 10C.

We just recently started a Trust and in the process of getting everything put into the Trust. A friend said he was told the best way to transfer firearms was to put them in the Trust which makes them pass on to whomever you designate. Sounds good but is it? I have a call in to our attorney to...

My wife and I both are retiring this year. Her last day was last Thursday. She was a para at one of our high schools and helped kids with algebra, trig, and geometry - anyone that does that should get hazardous duty pay. She is a few days from 65 and I am a few months past 66. I have tried to...

I currently live in Kansas and originally from Nebraska. Both states made the recent top 10 of tax heavy states. My wife and I are both going to call it quits this spring. I have suggested looking for a state to retire in. Kansas is gun friendly but between state, sales and property taxes, it...

Haven't really been much of a BBQer over the years but love smoked meat - brisket, turkey, chicken, ribs, loin, etc. Wife pretty much keeps me out of the kitchen the last 46 years! Started reading and getting some ideas on smokers - electric (set and forget, lose some flavor), charcoal...

A buddy and I are ready to take the plunge and try some coated bullets. We have both been using plated and cast bullets and I cast my own 158 grain SWC I shoot a lot of and some others. They seem to be a nice bridge between cast and plated. I have searched prior posts for coated bullets and...

Appreciate the assistance determining the year for: Model 686 -6 Serial # CYP6xxx Thanks!
