If you go to that show, make sure to wander next door and check out the antique bottle show. Lots of neat western type stuff in there, too.

You done GOOD, Noah. I like shooters, not collectors, too.

You might consider the Hornady 350 RN over 60 grains of IMR 3031. I like the 300 Barnes Original and 64/3031. I don't know about the throats on the Miroku .45-90s, so maybe they won't accept a 350 FN. That's why I mentioned the RN.

Mike D.

It wouldn't surprise me that ALL states have that same info on every handgun buyer.

Huntin' season's all but over out here in CA.

Seems like you can't hunt in this area unless it's over 80Âº, and certainly NOT during the rut.

According to Madis, the Henry rifles were numbered beginning with number 1 and running to 14,000. The Winchester Model 1866 began production at Henry number 12,000.

John, can you call up long gun purchases? I tried it on myself and came up with zilch. The last OTC handgun purchase of mine was in 1968, a new Colt Combat Commander .38 Super. The price was $98, and I have the box it came in. Wish the gun was in the same condition as the box.

Mike D.

Hail, I can well remember ALL of those tunes, commercials and programs, and I'm only 61.

Mike D.

BTW, I'm currently discussing the possibility of going up to see if Great American Gunstock Co, of Yuba City, Ca can do what I want. They assure me that most certainly can. I've been told by some folks that their work is less than stellar, but I have to see for myself. 'Sides, they're only 40 miles ...

Mike D.

What bullet are you planning to use on those elk?

Mike D.

Most of the restrictions for transfer and sales pertain to handguns only. Long guns are OK as of this moment. Remember, none of those pesky .50 BMGs.

Mike D.

BAGTIC, slow down just a smidgeon. CA is in no way related to a concentration camp. Freedoms abound, so I fail to understand your ranting. Have you ever lived in CA? Sure doesn't sound like it.

Mike D.

VERY nice. Looks like the gray faced bucks we bag down here, and the terrain looks like it, too.

Mike D.

Is there anything wrong with this format?

Mike D.

Red, I have the tang, lever, all screws, etc. I am insisting on a PG stock, so that's the hangup.

Mike D.

OUTSTANDING!! A fine bull with a fine rifle; what more could you ask for.

Mike D.

I forgot to add that all of the Browning parts are available from Midwest Gun Works. A little expensive, but the correct solution to poor, lawyer induced devices.

Thanks for posting that, Bruce Too many WWI soldiers just disappeared with the trenches. A while back, I saw a program on Discovery where some Belgian and British archaeologist excavated some trenches at Ypers. Several bodies were exhumed in the process. The original maps were used to locate the tre...

Twice, I have come home from being out and found guns laying on my front porch. The local Postmaster heard some serious complaining from me. If a signature is not required by the sender they will just leave it in the open, subject to theft by any passer-by.

Mike D.

Thanks, y'all. Now I gotta get out a BUST somethin' with it. First, that and the .35 Marlin need some load development and Chrony testing. I gotta get me some 150 grain .30 FNs, too.

Mike D.

[quote="BlaineCGarverakaTubbyTuba"]Excellent!

(you took direct delivery at your home...no FFL?)[/quote

I used my C&R license, Blaine. At this point in time, I won't buy any guns that require a Class 1 FFL.

Mike D.

SWEET!! This super nice Winchester Model 64 landed on my doorstep a short time ago. I'm fired up! Thanks, 1886, for a great deal on a classic Winchester, the first one I've owned in many years. It is a KEEPER!

Mike D.

I'll bet Hobie's bank account that the gun in question is an 1886 in .33 WCF.

Mike D.

To get it really right you have to install a Browning hammer, trigger spring and trigger. The Browning hammer has a true half cock notch and the trigger and sear are one piece. That way you can eliminate the two piece Winchester trigger and sear, along with the little springs and plunger. The aforem...

[quote="new pig hunter"]Handi, my first thought is, "get outta Kali !!" The tax burden, the oppression, all that sorta stuff we know so well. Oppression? I don't got no stinkin' oppression. I'm pre-Prop 13 so my taxes are low, low, low, less that $700 per annum. You know not of w...

Mike D.

Yup. Expanded and chamfered. When the bullet enters the seating die there is no room for the case to fit around it. Probably an RCBS problem. I'll wager that Lee dies will handle those bullets just fine.

Mike D.

Way to go, Ted! As I always say, someone's gotta win, but it's never me.

Mike D.

Well fellers, I just found out that bullets sized .431 don't work well in my lousy RCBS dies. I had a success rate of 20%, with most bullets sticking in the seating die and crushing the cases. All were once fired Starline Brass.
.430s seemed to function fine, but .001 larger is a no go.

Mike D.

.45-70 works for me. From mild to wild, it can do it all.

Mike D.

darn, this stuff really ticks me off. Of course they were armed; what part of Armed Forces doesn't the overly PC Oakland Airport Administration understand? I sincerely hope that some weak kneed bureaucrat looses his A** over this shocking and abysmal incident!

Mike D.

I personally will not purchase a new levergun, simply because I cannot abide the silly lawyer induced safeties. No button pushing for this shooter.

Mike D.

What an interesting site. I knew that there are hundreds of WWII sitting in watery graves, but didn't realize that so many were in such shallows. On that note, this months Smithsonian has an article on a B-17E that had crash landed in a New Guinea swamp back in 1942. The crew walked away from what w...

I put 32 years on the job and retired nearly 4 years ago. I have never been so busy, but do sleep in 'til 7 every morning, unless huntin' or fishin' calls.

The family farming bidness keeps me hoppin', too.

Mike D.

Any one that ends in WCF.

Mike D.

A friend sent me that quote and a few more pertinent ones. If that was enforced verbatim, we'd darn sure have to execute Baye, Boxer, Feinstein, "Old Kennedy", Dingy Harry Reid, and a WHOLE bunch more of them left leaners.

Isn't "Old Kennedy" the name of a good scotch?

Mike D.

What "Big City" did 'ya go to, Ed? Redding?

Mike D.

48 grains seems high to me. That makes for a potent 45-70 load with the 350 Speer FP.

Mike D.

I have both Lyman and RCBS and prefer the Lyman dies.

I'd sure like to see that but my browser does not support their video source.

Whose site is that, Blaine? Never seen it before.

Mike D.

A while back someone posted some loads using IMR 4198 powder, but I can't seem to find it. Where it be?

Mike D.

I stopped taking G&A last year. Too many crappy articles about all the NEWEST, MUST HAVE, ULTRA SHORT FAT MAGNUM JUNK. Got NO use for that poor excuse for a gunrag.

Mike D.

I don't know, but the Eagle looks a bit on the small side.

Mike D.

Even here in CA no rancher I know would dare act like that fool. He's prob'ly a displaced Los Angeleno who's cash heavy and brain light.

Mike D.

Whatever the gun was, it was a stage setting with a stuffed deer and the rifle was a prop.
