Congratulations!! Where in Vermont? I live not far from Montreal. Howdy neighbour.

I can't (won't ) blame any parent on how their kid behaves. saying that, the only thing I can say is that the kid learns by whar he see or hears. If the parentsdon't wish to agree it must be ghosts. I have 24 year old son that i am very proud of. I think that every decision that he made was a comple...

I would have to agree with ED. Great round but nobody understood at the time. I use 307 to make 356 cases just the head stamp is wrong, the deer target can't tell at that range.

iceman

I can understand a BIG deer. But where I come from, you have to find him. If there is any question of maybe being fenced in that is not a wild deer om my opinion. I am lucky in that I hunt where my grandfather hunted on nonfenced completely wild area. I guess I can't understand a fenced in area beca...

I have trained my share of apprentices in my trade (refrigeration) and at first big equipment with lots of complex controls valves etc seem intimedating but with time and practice it all works itself out. I'm not trying to say my trade as complex as your choice, (it's not) but with time and good pat...

Prayers sent to everyone concerned. the thing should fry!

iceman

We are doing better thanks. Last night 8 of the 12 grand kids went out for dinner together at hteir Grandfathers favorite restaurant. A few of the daughters and husbands got together and lifted a few glasses in his memory and laughed and danced and cried together. Other than the little headache and ...

I wish to give a heartfelt thankyou to everyone who offered prayers and best wishes to me and my family after the sudden death of my FIL. I have printed it off and plan on showing it to all involved. Just goes to show there are great people everywhere. Especially on this forum. I truly enjoy the dis...

iceman

I had the same problem with my 356. I added a little blob of bronze welding rod to the shell stop and reshaped the stop. Works great now. I have herd od peening the stop to reshape but my little blob of bronzed seems to work ok. Just my .02 canadian.

iceman

Great thoughts and very helpful for me right now. All I can say is amen.

iceman

Thanks to everyone! Great bunch of people here. I forgot to mention when my BIL drove in Rusty, his Ritweiller was sitting beside him keeping guard. Really man's best friend.

iceman

Sunday morning around 10:30 am my brother in law called me and said he just found is Dad on the ground beside his car dead. He was in a very bad state and could hardly dial the cell phone. My name was on the speed dial. I jumped in the car and drove over to the farm. (longest 5 minutes in my life) I...

iceman

I have an Abolt in 270 left hand. Like is's short bolt turn, shoots great and not too heavy. Don't know if controlled feed is all that important. I also like the detachable mag. remove to reload or from the open action.

iceman

Mod 94 BB 356 win FP rear Skinner brass front blade and a QD sling. Works for me.

iceman

Welcome from the great white north

iceman

I guess sorta got our brass resized and ready to reload.

iceman

Usually focus once and good to go at any setting. That has been my experience anyway, I don't have a lot of scopes (2) but seems ok for me. Just my .02 canadian

iceman

I use Hornady Great plains lead bullets. I have tried sabots but my rifle doesn't like them. You can't go wrong with a 50 cal 385 gr soft lead bullet.

iceman

Welcome from the great white north. (I do mean white, we have over 3 feet of snow now and winter is only starting.)

iceman

Nice looking rifle! Hope you have tons of fun with it and bring home lots of tasty meat with it.

iceman

Merry Christmas from the Belle Province (Quebec) To eveyone no matter what side of the border or oceans.

iceman

A MerryMerry and a Happy Happy to everyone from me and mine.

iceman

I can't even imagine what you are going through. As of Dec 10th Carol and I have been married 25 years. I can't even remember another way of being other than with her. Our thoughts and prayers are with you and yours. Please let us know if we can do anything, no matter how small to help you through t...

iceman

I'm in if not too hard to ship to Canada. Thanks It would be a good birthday gift (Dec 19)

iceman

I was 17 used a Savage 99 in 300 savage. I sure wish I hadn't traded that one.

iceman

I'm in too. I have a mod 94 30-30 circa 1943. I haven't bloodied it yet, never seem to have it in my hands at the right time. My 94 BB356 or my black powder seem lucky though.

iceman

Mod 94BB356 with 200 gr Hornady. Still trying a few different powders. Mod 94 circa 1942 170 gr sierra over 3031. A traditions inline with 385 gr Hornady Great Plains over 100 gr Pyrodox. Maybe an old Mossberg 12 ga bolt with slugs if nasty weather and I poking around wet dirty swamps.

iceman

Have you chamfered the case mouth? If too square could be the problem. Just my .02.

iceman

welcome from north of the 49th.

iceman

leverhunter. S.I.R. in Winterpeg carries williams peeps. There is a supplier of Williams in Edmonton, (Western Gun supplies I think but not sure of the name) The Skinner sight I ordered directly from Skinner, google is your friend. Williams used to ship to Canada but no longer.

iceman

I have just ordered a pair of Skinner front sights for my Mod 94BB 356. they are the solid brass style. I am planning on filing the top corner at 45 degrees like the Marbles sourdough and blacken the rest. Marbles has seen fit to stop producing the sourdough sight. I ordered 2 in case I mess up. the...

iceman

I had a Rem 700BDL in 35 Whelan once upon a time. It really liked 225 gr Sierra bullets. It shot real nice with a set if 5D sights. Recoil was fairly stout from the bench but OK when you stood up like a man. I traded it after I got tired of it. It wasn't really right for me since I'm a lefty. I have...

iceman

I used to have a mag tube clamp on type. My POI would change after a while. I bought an Uncle Mikes forearm/ barrel band type. ( I had to drill and tap the band, no big deal) so far all ok I will know better after the next hunting season. Last year was pretty short, I shot a nice 8 point on the open...

iceman

To Jmiller I didn't plan on anything. Just an idea to slope the eye onside to match the old sourdough style. I then thought that since the whole sight is brass . maybe not so good.I'll knpw better once sight is installed. Just an idea to catch light yet not change poi. The old sour dough was basical...

iceman

I have just ordered a Skinner Sight front sight. It is a post type. I was wondering if I should slope the post like the marbles sour dough or leave as is. I ordered 2 of them so if I mess up I have a spare. By the way they are made of brass.

iceman

Jmiller. I agree with you, but I was trying to explain why his smith couldn't get it to jam but he could do it on the first try. I had that issue, as I said and by playing around a bit everything is OK now. No argument about parts swappers from me. Have a good one.

iceman

It probably has something to do with how fast you cycle the action. My 356bb would only jam if Iycled it slowly. My circa 49 mod 94 has no problems no matter what the speed I cycle it. Not a hard fix with a little patience.

iceman

I live in the great white north. How do you pull the trigger with mittens on?

iceman

willdo.

iceman

On its way . Hang in there.

iceman

I would change too. I had similar problem with one of my rifles. I am not a smith by any means, but after studying it a bit, I brazed on a little bronze and reshaped, works fine now. Same problem in every trade, everybody is a parts changer. Sometimes we can make a better mousetrap. Just my .02 Cana...

iceman

I posted the item re zippo. Nice to hear there are still some great manufacturers out there that stand behind their products. this is the best advertisement they can get. Lets keep spreading the word of these great companies. I wasn't aware of either companies mentioned, now I do and will support th...

iceman

canadian cowboy there nolonger is a Canadian factory (was in Niagara Falls) Just mail to Zippo Repair Clinic, 1932 Zippo Drive, Bradford PA 16701 USA. Include a note with your return address and contact # ie phone and or email address and they will fix it right up for you.

iceman

Leverbob I was aware of this. I have sent other lighters back to them. Just thought I would share with the rest.

iceman

I just received my 2 Zippo lighters back from them for repair. One had a broken spring for the thingy that keeps the lid closed, and a looose hinge. The other was missing the insides because airport security claims they are too dangerous. I told them to bill me for the new insides since it wasn't a ...

iceman

Woke up early this morning and everything had a coat of frost outside. (I live in Lachute Quebec about 45 miles northwest of Montreal) Since partridge opened yesterday I just had to go for a walk. I grabbed my old Mossberg 12ga bolt and went for a walk. The field in front of my house has some of the...

iceman

I voted Winchester because I like the way they carry. I have had a Marlin 444 but didn't like the feel. I guess I'll stick with my 356BB pre crossbolt safety. Just my .02

iceman

It already has been messed with so what the heck. Is it in 358 now? If so I would snap it up, great cal. If not would the cost of changing to 358 be a little much? Just my .02

iceman

Just an idea. Contact Westinghouse with the model number etc (if you can find it,) they may have a part, or be willing to make one and use the story to show how well the product is made. You might want to try their marketing department. You never know unless you try. Good luck.

iceman

I have been doing refrigeration for 25 years or so and used to be my CB handle when they were in. It has been a good trade and taken me pretty well all over Canada and a good part of the USA. My son is now doing his apprenticeship and seems to like it so far.
