For those that place doubt on the lowly .38 SPL then you need to look here http://www.brassfetcher.com/Buffalo%20Bore%20Ammunition%20150gr%20standard%20pressure%20Hard%20Cast%20Wad%20Cutter.html This can be closely duplicated with Unique & a DEWC as per the Speer #12 & #13 manuals. I suspect...

I found this this morning I hope you all enjoy.

I finally got out to shoot this load through my 4" S&W M10 this afternoon. With the exception of some shots I pulled I found that this load shoots to point of aim. I have a question for the veterans here though. I have no chrongraph so can someone tell me what this load will generally chron...

336A

Not the beast pic but here ya' go.

336A

Thanks for all of the replies and pictures folks. My holster was waiting for me last night when I got home from work, and it is better than I imagined it would be. Rob just earned another dedicated long term customer

336A

Well I finally did it the other day, I ordered my first quality leather holster from Simply Rugged for my S&W M10 :D I was going to get a Mernickle but I like the added protection that the Sourdough pancake holster offers better. So to tide me over until my holster gets here can anyone here that...

336A

Thanks for the reply Hobie. I know that you said that the holster was really tight when you first got it. But how secure is the gun after the holster has had time to break in? Also will it be suitable for field carry holster?

336A

I'm about ready to buy my first quality leather holster for my S&W M10. After doing a bit of research I have made up my mind on the Mernickle PS6-DA for. Does anyone here have any experience with Mernickle line of holsters?

Federal has resumed the manufacture of the .38spl 125gr Nyclad ammunition. Finally there is some good standard pressure defensive ammo availabe for those of us that don't have +P rated snubbies.

I just hope that they sell it in 50 round boxes and not the expensive 20rnd boxes.

336A

I use nothing but Unique for my .38 SPL loads. I know that most folks complain about it being dirty. That don't bother me though as I clean my M10 after every use.

336A

I'm in upstate NY right next to Canada. We don't have snow on the ground yet this year, but those pics were taken 2 years ago about this time of year. This year has been cold however, today we had a high of 32 degrees.

336A

congrats on your deer.

336A

So what do you floks usually reach for the most often when you decide to go loaf around in the woods for a bit? I find myself reaching for my Henry H001 .22 more than anything else.

336A

Here is mine, I opt for insulated coverall as it is a tad cold here.

336A

Congrats! No pics? Sorry about that fellas :oops: , I should have known better. Here is the best pic that the wife took while I was hard at work. To be completely honest I didn't even know she had the camera until I asked about it today. I sure wish that she spoke up and took one before I started i...

Well tonight at 4:30PM I got myself a doe, the first deer of the season for me. This one however was the first deer I have shot that was over 100yd, she was 130yd away. I was walking home when I decided to check a field one last time before heading home for dinner. The field is only about 150yd acro...

336A

Yup beleive it or not contrary to what a lot of folks think we do have Moose here in NY. However there are no great numbers yet. Hopefully they will do well to where we may be lucky enough to have a Moose season in the future, that sure would be great. There is nothing I would like more than getting...

336A

I would much rather use the Win silvertips if that is all I could find for Self Defense type ammo. However the Speer 250gr Gold Dot would be my first choice. Here is a great write up on that loading for you.

I found this else where and thought that it was worth sharing here hope everyone enjoys it. I came into this world in July of 1926, the 150th birthday of America. It was fitting. My maker, Smith & Wesson in Massachusetts, created me to be a comfort to the law abiding citizen and a tool in the ha...

336A - that's THREE guns! (Ya can't count worth squat, but your logic is impeccable. ) I, too, think that the old Model 10 is a terrific design; and the 38 Special is cheap to load. With modern bullets, it's a perfectly good choice for social work, too. If I didn't have a Model 66, I might have mad...

336A

Kind of ironic that you brought this up. Due to the cost of ammunition lately as well as gas my wife and I are on a budget that just won't budge. But then again who ain't? My solution to this problem for more than a year has been my S&W M10 .38 SPL, Marlin 336A, and my Henry H001. People can loo...

336A

I just noticed that S&W no longer has the M57 in they're line up.

I hope that this is not a sign of things to come, as the .41 magnum is by far my very favorite handgun cartridge. I hope that someone else will pick up the slack and produce a quality DA 6 shot .41 mag.

336A

Yup they did make a boat load of them. But I wouldn't call them inadequte due to a steady diet of of .357 magnum ammo. As far as I know they recieved that bad rap due to the 125gr full house loads. Not the 158gr loads which the fixed sight K frame magnums were regulated for. What I'm refering to in ...

Made revolvers like these, I bet they would sell like hot cakes.

336A

bullet choices are my only beef with most retailers. Seems like all you can find on the shelf is 158 RN (UMC) or Whitebox Winchesters. The local Walmart here keeps a few boxes of +P and some 110grainers, I have not found a box of wadcutters in a long time. I agree, but I can't even fing the 158gr L...

336A

Nothing sillier than an adjustable rear sight on that type of gun. That's a urban myth/sterotype. If you want to hit something, you have to aim and adjustable sights are more useful in making a gun accurate. There, it dosen't seem so silly now does it? :D 8) Please don't tell my S&W M10 that. I...

336A

bsaride, that is one fabulous looking N frame .44 SPL. It will make one dandy of a duo that will serve you well into the future.

2ndovc, how well does your M 21 shoot for you, and what loads do you normally use?

336A

My levergun/pistol pairing while not historicaly or time peroid correct have some small amount of commonality linking the two. I purchased my 336A new in 2002, at the time I was not thinking about pairing it with a sidearm. A few years later I wnated a sixgun that would allow me to shoot without goi...

That guy should have straightened out those two girls muy pronto. I wouldn't have taken that.

Amen to that. I don't even like thinking about what would become of me if I talked to my father like that.

336A

My wife and I have been watching the show since it first came on. I hope that the paticipants leave the expeiment with a positve attidue about hunting and firearms. I thought it was funny how the female that is with the two men stated that she was thinking about becoming a vegiterian. That is until ...

336A

Very nice S&W M65 you have there, I hope you enjoy it. One note about shooting .357 ammo though. You will be fine as long as you stick to 158gr .357 ammo. The 125gr full power loads are the ones that you want to stay away from in the K frame magnums. There was a great deal of talk on this subjec...

336A

What works in one Rifle may not in another. My suggestion, work up your own load in your rifle. Yours may not like the powder you are using, or the bullet. This is what makes reloading interesting, finding out & tailoring a load to a specific firearm. I have two Colt SAA, consec. serial numbers...

336A

Thanks for the great feedback guys. Here is a little insight as to what spurred me to ask this question. I have on hand at the moment W748 and RL15 for powders. For bullets I have Speer, Hornady, and Sierra 150gr bullets. The first powder I tried was W748 with the Speer bullets. I full length sized ...

336A

Just out of curiosity has anyone here used H322? I noticed that both my Sierra 5th edition manual as well as Brian Pearce had good things to say about it. In a article not to long ago done up by Mr. Pearce, he said H322 only had 8 FPS SD when loaded with a Nosler 170gr Partition. He also went on to ...

I wanted to conduct a little poll here to see what you vteran 30/30 reloaders think is the best powder for the 30/30. Here is the list that I came up with which I think are the most commonly used. I would also like to add that by best powder I mean one that gives good accuracy with 150gr and 170gr b...

336A

Thanks for the help folks. I have figured that since I have had miserable results with W748 and RL15, I might as well give the traditional powder for the cartridge a try. It appears that more often than not, the results most folks recieve are good to very good with this powder.

336A

I am going to purchase some IMR 3031 soon to use with 150gr bullets for my 30-30. Does anyone here have a favorite load with this powder they can share. I know the time tested favorite load with this powder is 30gr under a 170gr bullet. However my rifle prefers the 150gr variety, at least in factory...

336A

Thanks for the helpful replies and great photos folks.

336A

I am planning on buying one of these holsters for my S&W M10 in the not so distant future. Can anyone here that has one post a pick for of this holster as worn. I've never seen one in person, and therfore wondering how high a holstered revolver rides while worn in this holster. Thanks in advance.

336A

Hello folks been awhile since I last posted, I found some things I would like to share with everyone. I found this holster today that my father bought a long time ago, it's brand new spankin' new. :wink: http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b356/336a/P4170080.jpg Here is my M60 no dash (belonged to my ...

I' ve read else where, where someone fired some low velocity .38 SPL rounds in they're .357 and damaged the chamber. Basicaly what happened whas the ammo burned a ring in the chamber of his rifle. Thousands and thousand of .38 SPL ammo is fired in .357 handguns every year without ill effect. Has any...

336A

To anwer your question as to why, is because I carry my M10 around the woods with me more than any other sidearm. I also want to expirement with some of the heavy bullets as well in this cartridge. I like heavy for caliber bullets in pistols especialy the .38 SPL. I know that 2400 used to be listed ...

336A

I am going to try my hand at using a 190gr WFNPB in the .38 SPL here shortly. A friend of mine has tried Blue Dot with this bullet, which really didn't work as well as he hoped for (large ES, and SD). So I'm thinking of using Unique, and 4.1gr as the charge not to exceed. My goal is to reach or slig...

mentioned when I saw them at the last show in Jackson I think it was, that I'd like to have some .44 240gr SWC's. They said I should call to give them time to cast before the Memphis show, which started today. Well, I never got around to calling, but what do you know? He had the bullets I'd request...
