A Ruger SS in stainless with the dual cylinders. I have the 6 1/2" and it is the most accurate 22 that I own. If you can find a S&W model 34 22 they are supurb. I had one and have been kicking myself for ever letting it go. However I do have two custom knives I got in the trade. The 34 was ...

EBR are fine but they are Sloooooooow. I can get 10 rounds fired off with my 92 Rossi before one can take the safety off a EBR.

A lever gun will be faster for 10 round than a EBR every time.

Lefty Dude

The nice little piece is the Gun Blast Ruger Bear Cat that has been converted to a 22 Mag.

Lefty Dude

Give us SOME credit ... that indicates to me that there is STILL a high level of respect, even when we get emotionally 'rowdy' on some topic or other. Respect, to me, is what it's all about. In a society where respect is sorely lacking, it's nice to be among folks that appreciate it. A big DITTO :!:

Lefty Dude

There are also BB caps which have no powder, just the primer.

Do not shoot them in long barreled rifle's they may not make it out .

Don't ask me how I know.

Lefty Dude

There are many factors that can cause leading in a revolver. Are the cylinder throats sized for lead bullets ? Many are not. If the throats are undersize the bullet will be swedged smaller be for it enters the forcing cone most revolvers have throats that are at barrel groove dimensions or smaller. ...

Coldfingers; One of my old loading manuals recommended using FMJ 9mm for small game and turkeys. I have never tried it, but it makes sense. Accuracy will suffer greatly. 9mm bullets are .355-.356 barrel grooves usually .354-.355 .357's are .357-.358 barrel grooves usually .358- .360 They will work ...

If you have pasture and lots of space this helps with the cost. Horses can be a very expensive hobby. And just have deep pockets for the care & feeding if you do not have pasture. Like was said, the shoeing & hoof triming can be expensive. It should be done every 6 to 8 weeks. I bred & o...

Lefty Dude

Just to cause more confusion, why not look at the 16 gauge. Best of both worlds. (if ya can find the right ammo). :wink: Check out 16GA society. I have all 16's now. 2 SXS 16's 2 870/16's For my Cowboy Action 16 SXS I shoot brass shells. You can shoot loads equal to the 12 and 3/4 oz loads like a 28.

BTW: Youse guys what use 2400 in the .45-70... Lyman says it needs a poly filler/wad... Is 2400 position sensitive? :?: Old Ironsights, I shoot 21 grs. of 2400 with a 430 gr. cast bullet in my 45-70s and it doesn't seem position sensitive. I would advise AGAINST using fiber fillers in the .45-70. S...

Lefty Dude

I have no length problem at all in my .357, and I shoot 200 gr spire points.

Oh

forgot it is a TC contender and I had the chamber lengthened to .357 Maximum.

It does have a lever, sort of.

Lefty Dude

Never clean your barrel during a hunt season, unless of course the weather is foul and it must be done.

I used to carry a couple of the kids ballon's in my pocket to place over the end of the barrel if the weather got bad.

Lefty Dude

Griff wrote:Another beautiful pair.

And not to belabor the point, I class the Spencer as a Levergun. The separate cocking of the hammer notwithstanding.

Ditto;

nice selection, now you are back on track.

Lefty Dude

My Rossi 92 has a better trigger than my 94.

Lefty Dude

Check your Hodgdon 110 bottle. "13.5 grains is Maximum do not exceed- reduce by 3% to start".

Don't get into the .357 Maximum loading data by mistake.

Lefty Dude

With this combo we can see you are about at the bottom of the barrel

You are right, the .357 blackhawk is a Mis-match. A 44 open top 1872 would be a nice touch. Or better yet a 45 Schof.

Lefty Dude

Ruger has it listed on there site.

AJ;

I finally hooked up with a company to sell & market my Cowboy Screw drivers.

Lefty Dude

They were made in Mesa, AZ. At the Falcon Field.

I remember when they came out.

Nice Job AJ

We have Yote's in the back yard every day chasing rabbits. Came home one day and five were high-tailing it out as we drove in. I can take the Yote's, its those sneekie coon tailed Rattlers that can get my Blood pressue up a 100 points. May be we should deliver some Western Diamondbacks and drop them...

It O.K. for the Chicago police to kill a Couger. And a Western Rancher goes to Jail for killing a Wolf that kills his cattle.

Wait till the Wolfs start going into the City's. What will the Sheepeople do then

Lefty Dude

A very nice rifle.

How hard are they to find ?

Lefty Dude

I also used 30-30 brass for my .375 Winny. However some shooters do not have the reloading experience to neck the case's up. For full loads I used .375 cases. I also had a Ruger #3 in .375, In the Ruger I only seated the bullets about a 1/4" in the case. Wished I had that Ruger still, it was on...

I spoke with Jesse yesterday about converting a Marlin 336 30-30 to 38-55. He indicated it would be a .376 groove diameter with a 1-15 twist. He indicates it is safe to fire factory .375 Winchester in this conversion. ???? Also indicated the current price is $225.00. I have two of the 336 Texans an...

If you are shoot BP, then I would go with a longer barrel. Like stated previous, the modern powders will give you the burn in the first 18". I have proof of this, My Brother has a 94 win. 30-30 BBC 20" SRC. I have a 26" octagon 30-30 Win. Legacy. We have shot my lead loads together at...

I have always thought the Mossburg products were entry level and a beater gun for youngsters. Have never giving them a second glance or look. If I had my choice between a Winchester, Marlin or Mossburg, this would be a no brainer for me. I would hold out, unless you need one now. There are alot of c...

It has to be a 94, action is not long enough for 92.

Lefty Dude

My 44 special load that I use for CAS competition in my Colts is 3.5 grains of American Select with a 200 gr. bullet. This is a very mild target type load. It shoots 3/4" groups at 15 yards on the bench. I agree, Unique is a lower pressure burning powder. You might have a Gun Smith check it out...

Lefty Dude

You are wise in staying with the 44 mag case. :wink: When you buy your lead bullets, do not buy SWC's. They do have a tendency to hang up on the chamber mouth. Flat round nose or truncated nose works the best. A friend of mine bought a marlin 94/44 and had problems with a box of factory SWC's. He al...

Lefty Dude

Lever Guns are case length sensitivity, I doubt if the Russian will feed properly. Someone is building an after market carrier that will feed the Russian. I use the 44 specials with a truncated flat nose and they feed very well. You can handload the special and achieve Russian proformance & velo...

Lefty Dude

Find an older model Vaquaro in 45, they are out there. They were made on the Super BH frame and will take the full load of a 45 better than the NMV. However, if you have small hands then the NMV would be the way to go. My Son bought a pair of OMV (Blued) last year in .357, $600.00 for the pair. If y...

Some day I will find a very nice Marlin 93 in 32-40, my brother has one and it is a tack driver.

Ok, I am thinking of getting into Cowboy Action Shooting. I have already ordered the single stage Lee at $99. I have the money for the Dillon deal. would I be stupid to pass this up?

Back in the mid '80s I picked up a Crosman 1377 pump pistol in .177. I used it to pop doves in my yard and rats in my mango tree.

Lefty Dude

Nice find for a first generation, great condition. I an sure you know what it is worth

Lefty Dude

Nice products, and very nice people.

My Brother lives in La Grande, Or. as we go on I-84 we pass thru Baker City, Or. I usually stop there and visit, and pick up several thousand bullets.

I use the Tru-Shot 170 gr. gas checks in my Winchester 94 30-30 Legacy.

U-can buy Star's from Magma Engineering, Queen Creek, AZ. The maker's of the Master-Caster Mold products. They sell the Star products.

Lefty Dude

Buy the best, get a Star. I have a Lyman 450 and have had it for years. It is O.K.. The Star is better.

If you do casual size/lube buy a Lee, just remember you get what you pay for.

They made a Marlin 94 in 32-20 I think. And not to long ago.

Lefty Dude

Taylor's has a take down 92, kinda pricey tho.

Do not know the Mfgr.

Lefty Dude

Legacy's are one fine rifle. I have one in 30-30, 26" octagon barrel.

Mine was one of the last made in New Haven, I bought it in 2005.

The Cowboy Compitition in 38 is no longer available. It included a factory action job.

Nate;

How many rounds does the 44-40 hold ?

Lefty Dude

The Marlin Cowboy was chambered in 38 special only. The Cowboy Limited is in .357/38.

The cowboy is no longer offered by Marlin.

Nice idea, making your own shoot-N-see targets.

I must be unusual, I read it and got it the first time.

One who reads first, then looks at Pix's.

When I read Playboy, I read the Playmate's name first.
