Parts will interchange within limits. Some might need just a little fitting.

The early euroarms rifles had a different twist than most of the other replica's. Waters commented on it when he used one for a test gun for 44-40 in the 80's. If I remember right they are 1-16 twist rather than the 1-36 that was standard in most other guns. Other than that they are as good as any o...

Vidoe come in ok but the big guy needs a shave.

Nothing wrong with a little fancy for dress up. I packed a nickle 45 with ivory grips for quite a while.

KCSO

The foolproof is just that a simple inexpensive hunting sight and just the ticket for a 30 30. The Lyman is decended from the target sights of the old days back when I started shooting and was meant to be adjustable and repeatable for TARGET shooting and also serve as a hunting sight. For the 30-30 ...

YOur problems with Swiss might be the compression. In my gun Swiss doesn't like compression at all and I just put the bullet tight to the card wad. If you are serious about working up a load you need to shoot at least 5 shot and better yet 10 shot groups and if you can try and shoot at 2-300 yards s...

Thought about it but I have a cannon and launching my smooth faced Peter Wright just doesn't seem like the thing to do.

KCSO

He was a NAMES winner and was featured in Home Shop Machinist a couple years ago. They are even more impressive close up.

As I read this I caress my per 64 M70 270 with it's 3X weaver. I have made shots to 300 yards on deer with nothing more than the old 3x, but my father in law wouldn't even use a scope on his 270. Between us we had everything Jack ever wrote.

The bolt timing in the Schofield is such that you are going to get a 90% dag mark no matter what but if you follow the good advise give here you can prevent it on your Colt's.

I wear moc's most of the year, canadian moosehide muckluks in the winter. I guess i take my mountain man thing too far. I make my own sioux style mocs from an old patter I made at the Museum of the Fur Trade in Chadron back int eh 70's.

KCSO

After shootig the same M70 270 rifle from 1948 to 1993 my father in law finally put a scope on the rifle, then took it off because he couldn't hit running coyotes as well with the scope. He kept his eye sight pretty good till he was 93 or so and at that age he could still hit a running deer at over ...

If you can fill the opening a mag tube from a 32 H and R will work just fine.

How can you shoot that there's no WHEELS! Gosh it's nice to see somebody shooting a real bow for a change. That's a dandy.

KCSO

I think I posted befor ewhen i finished my last 38-55 conversion. I redid a Canadian Centennial 30-30 with a Numerich barrel and such. I did have tyo replace the cheap stamped lifer with a good machined one to get reliable feeding but ended up with a really nice accurate 38-55. Depenfing on the gun ...

25-35 will push a 117 grain fp bullet at about 2000fps from a carbine. That would be just about a top end load. They are kinda small for mule deer and bear but will do the job on whitetails inside 100 yards if your state will allow it. They are a dandy all rouond ranch rifle with a flat trajectory w...

KCSO

I kinda started hunting in a place called mantrap valley. If you went in you had better know how to get back out and if you got hurt in there you were on your own. I learned to carry a small pack for just in case, every time. I still don't go anywhere into the wods without fod, fire and ammo, if I h...

My Cowboy feeds 45 Colt and 45 S and W with no problems and no mods. So if I run out of Colts I can always slip in some shorty's from my Schofield.

KCSO

Uncle Oly didn't think the gun was too small he just got flustered seeing all that bear and it took him all 5 to get the job done. He didn't think he was up to doing the job again!

I asked the lefty yesterday about his 8's and he said he has never been hit with a piece of brass from one of them. Actually he said he rarley loses brass as it is all in the same pile, not all over the countryside. Just for your info they made more M94 Winchesters in one year than all the model 8's...

I've posted before , but I have an old 45 Colt Cowboy that was one of the first ones made. The barell is 24" long on mine. I took it out today to check the sighta and had two different loads of cast bullets 250 grain Lee RNFP one with IMR4227 max loads and one with my standard plinking load of ...

Generaly down and to the right. My left handed buddy has 3 and none bother him at all.

I have shot a bit of the NA 32 rimfire and was not impressed it was not very accurate. But you could convert the breechblock to centerfire.

KCSO

No emery or a brush wont do the job, any rifiling left will spin the shot charge. I just finished a rifle attachement for a Mossberg smoothbore and have had to shoot a lot of smooth vrs rifled shot loads lately. What you ned to do is get a 224 reamer and using a lot of cutting fluid ream the bore sm...

Depending on how adept yu are at one time Numerich had 336 barrels for like $50 each. I may still have a couple, the ones I got were like brand new and have worked well as both replacments and as liners.

Yep I bought an Echo two years ago to replace a Poulan. The echo cuts about 30% more wood in the same amount of time and starts a little easier than the Poulan. It is a rock solid machine with only one weak point that I can see, the screws that hold on the cover vibrate loose and I have to carry spa...

Check Arms of the World 1911 the Alpha Catalog and you will find a picture andf a price.

KCSO

I would guess $450-600 depending on the area and interest in Enfields. Here it would be a slow sell as there are few fellows who want an OLD SMELLY.

KCSO

I think he's got it.

KCSO

6 months will just about do it. I've tried everything for skunk smell as I use to trap the critters. some things help but time is the only cure.

KCSO

So you shot up all your carry ammo and went home empty? Guess when the s#!t will happen? I learned a long time ago to NEVER get caught with an empty gun. But I did drive 100 miles to a M/L shoot with 54 caliber balls for my .40 target rifle.

KCSO

I'm guessing his E Mail is PTBARNUM@

And some schmuck will buy it.

KCSO

Looks like he was't going to run out of ammo too soon either.

Such a deal I have for you I am replacing the stock on my Cowboy and I have a buttplate in new condition. PM Me if you want it.

According to the Nebraska Game Dept. there are no wolves in Nebraska, but if there are they won't attack livestock or people, and if they do it was your fault to begin with, OH and if you shoot a wolf and we catch you you are going to jail. Our biggest problem here is the folks who want to raise the...

Well I didn't notice any mist but the last buffalo I shot did sorta rare back and fall over dead.

DO NOT under any circumstance buy a Chapparral unless you want to do a lot of work and replace parts. The barrels are not to spec a 38-40 tube running 405. The parts are mixed and the chambers are not properly cut. They are the culls of the levergun world. Parts imported here and then mixed from gun...

In bear country I carry a custom Smith N frame 6 shot with a cylinder cut to take 45 Win mag brass in moon clips with stout 45 Colt loads. This give me reasonalble power and a quick loading gun. In Nebraska where there is no large dangerous game my woods gun is a Cimarron Lightning 3 1/2" barre...

Wyoming 1976 elk hunting with a native... We were driving a logging road and i spot and elk down the valley, No you don't want that one. I spot one 100 yards away across a field, no you don't want that one. Pretty soon he points up the hill and says shoot that one. I shoot and the elk flops over. We...

What's with this S#*&? Are we being invaded? When this happened on another forum we ended up with hundredes of these jamming the site.

Good job on the bear, I did depradation hunts this winter, but only for deer. As a long time user of Mountain Moulds I admire your choice of projectile, Boolits forever.

What happens when you get a judgment on a fellow in the pen making 25 cents an hour? You can garnish his wages? Unless he wins the lottery you will end up with more money wasted, even small claims requires service of the summons ect and costs will go to $100 or so, then you get a judgment and it cos...

Yes, as Sheriff I worked that case and sent the fellow up the river. He got pen time here and in SD. Yep that's the one, When I did the test on this one for NCOWS it was shooting under 3" at 100 yards with iron sights. What really surprised me was that FFFg powder gave me close to 1200 fps and ...

I used a Marbles gold bead, the 34 W and it worked just fine.

Check the cross reference charts in the back of the GPC catalog. If I remember right the gun MAY be a mossberg.

Picked up a lever gun over the weekend, a Marlin CB 94 Cowboy with the 24" barrel. There is nothing really remarkable about that except that it only cost $300 AND it's ugly. A couple years ago we did a case where a family disappeared while on probation and we had to hunt them down and bring the...

Waters Pet Loads 30-30 Update....

Bolt action loads in the M54 were about 100-150 fps faster than lever gun max loads and a 150 bullet was clocked at right on 2400 fps.

KCSO

I'd crimp the case myself but... Those bullets will handle a roll crimp just fine, just don't over do it.
