One of my all time favorite movies. The other is Caddyshack. Thanks, Tom

I know Ross Seyfried from Guns And Ammo Magazine always used/raved Federal Brass for his top end 45 Colt loads in his 5 shot revolvers. Hope this helps. Thanks, Tom

CEMENTHEAD

Thank you Sir! Add my name to the hat as well!
Thanks, Tom

CEMENTHEAD

That'sa nize!!!

CEMENTHEAD

Never really liked the '73's.....however this one sways me.

CEMENTHEAD

I just found a beater 7600 in .35 Remington at the local pusher's store. For the princely sum of $200. I may have to go pick it up.....

CEMENTHEAD

OOOOOO! Me likey ! Great snag! Have fun shooting it. Thanks, Tom

CEMENTHEAD

170's for me and my family. They seem to shoot more accurate out of our guns on average. They are no handicap at all out to 200 yards or so.

Thanks, Tom

CEMENTHEAD

Pick whichever weapon suits you at the time. 90% is the operator's mindset. I've had the priveledge of being side by side around some of our nation's finest military. These guys, I believe, would complete the mission with sharpened sticks with no problems.

My .02$. Thanks, Tom

CEMENTHEAD

Thanks Joe, Sending the money order out in the AM. Thanks again, Tom

CEMENTHEAD

:D I think I love Slug guns. What's not to love, short, light, handy, .72 caliber repeating "rifles" that fling an ounce (or more) projectile out at 14-1700FPS. Out to 100 yards I see few, better options when you need some "horsepower". (Excepting the over .35 caliber leverguns o...

Streetstar, Says right in my 1894P owner's manual on page 1 and I quote, "WARNING: Do not use Blazer brand ammunition in this rifle. The design is not compatible with the Marlin feeding system, and may result in live rounds inadvertently remaining in the magazine." Hope this helps, Thanks,...

CEMENTHEAD

Mark me for not liking them.

I still hunt mostly and slings hang up in the brush, thus making noise.....no good. It still goes with me in my blaze orange vest game pocket in case I need a drag or need to make a splint.

Thanks, Tom

CEMENTHEAD

YOU DOG!!!!!! YOU SCORED LIKE WE THE PEOPLE !!!!!

Dream gun for sure........good luck with it. Thanks, Tom

CEMENTHEAD

Mokwaw, PM sent. Thanks, Tom

CEMENTHEAD

Great idea, wish I could do the same. It would probably be different if I didn't shoot them. My interests are too varied to even attempt it. Good luck with the new lever. Thanks, Tom

CEMENTHEAD

Hobie, I hope yours is in the order as well. I also found out that they are only releasing 500 per quarter this year. This upcoming quarter's allottment is already spoken for.

They haven't said anything about getting more for next year. Yikes! Talk about an instant collectors item!

CEMENTHEAD

Gunsmith called today to tell me my 44 special Ruger Flat top is being shipped in 10 days from Lipsey's. YAY ! It's about time. I ordered the 4-5/8" barreled version. I'm psyched about it.

CEMENTHEAD

BTT for the weekend

CEMENTHEAD

God's Speed Mike, for you and your fellow travellers. Have a safe trip. Thanks, Tom

CEMENTHEAD

I'll accept 4" groups of 3 shots at 100 yards (open sights) for hunting arms such as levers, muzzleloaders and shotguns, IF they're consistent. I limit myself to 150 yards or less with these hunting guns anyways for the shear enjoyment of actually "hunting" and getting closer. 90% my ...

CEMENTHEAD

Only load i use in the .35 Remington.......37.5 grains of 3031, under a 200 grain Remington CoreLokt RN. A little stiff but consistent. Drop 10% and work up in your gun. Have fun....Thanks, Tom

CEMENTHEAD

.32-20 without a doubt. Easier to find components, easier to cast, easier on the ears, very versatile. Both would be fun in a 1894 CL Marlin levergun. Thanks, Tom

CEMENTHEAD

At last someone really knows my weakness for Tequila !!!!! That's great! Thanks, Tom

CEMENTHEAD

Condolences Mike. Prayers to his family and yours.

CEMENTHEAD

Guide Gun without a doubt. I still may pick up a Cowboy though, just for back up.

Here's a couple pics of mine........

Thanks, Tom

CEMENTHEAD

Condolences to you and your family...................................

CEMENTHEAD

:D It's a toss up. I have both and I am the better for having them... :D !!! I have 3 bolt guns in .308 ( Remington 700 LTR and SPS, Savage Model 10 Tactical) and 2, 30-06's (An Ultra Light Arms bolt gun and a 7600 Remington pump carbine). I have to admit in the bolt guns with 24" barrels the '...

CEMENTHEAD

BTT...................Thanks, Tom

CEMENTHEAD

As much as I love my 3" Ruger SP101, I'll have to agree with the others. A Smith & Wesson or Ruger GP100 in 4" barrel format is easily used by all but the smallest hands, and is controllable. Thanks, Tom

CEMENTHEAD

Why not use those with 1" reducers? Or I have had good luck with the LaRue Tacticals. Then again Leupold makes some nice steel, lever quick release rings. Hope this helps. Thanks, Tom

CEMENTHEAD

I don't know about the Speer Hot Cor's, however I know that 125 grain Nosler Ballistic Tips @ 3200+ fps will explode any varmint you decide to level the sights on......

Makes a bloody mess of 'em. Hope this helps, Thanks, Tom

CEMENTHEAD

No doubt in my mind...405. Sure the ammo and components cost more, however it has romance and nostalgia. Isn't that why we shoot and hunt with leverguns? Thanks, Tom

CEMENTHEAD

My pick would be a Smith & Wesson model 696. 3", stainless, 5 shot, 44 special. Or my Ruger 44 mag stainless 4-5/8" Bisley. Autos aren't on my list, but IF I had to it would be a 1911 or Glock Model 21SF in 45ACP. Thanks, Tom

CEMENTHEAD

I too was stationed at Ft Carson from '89-'92. We trained at Pinion Canyon twice before the call up to Desert Shield/Storm. I remember we weren't allowed to move any vehicles or equipment when it rained because of the damage to the manuever area. I'm kinda glad it rained off and on for 16 days in '8...

CEMENTHEAD

:D Since it's a wish list....I would like a "Little Sharps" in .500 S&W Magnum with a 26" barrel or a 1886 Winchester (or copy) in .50-110, factory half octagon, half round, LW, 22" barrel, half mag, with a shotgun butt. Not too much to ask I think. :roll: Thanks, Tom P.S. Al...

CEMENTHEAD

I'm getting 2894 fps average from an unpublished load of RL-22 with 180 grain Nosler Ballistic Tips. Is that close enough? It's safe in my 24" Douglas barreled, Ultra Light Arms 30-06 and one other Remington 700 with a 24" barrel. The same charge with Partitions is 2821 fps average. In the...

CEMENTHEAD

Went to the local Wally world.....the ammo shelves are almost bare. Save a few boxes of Winchester "White Box" 44mag and bulk pack 22lr, it was a sad sight. Of course I bought the 44's....all of 'em

Definately people who are scared buying right now. Thanks, Tom

CEMENTHEAD

My small game 30-30 load is a .311 round ball over 5.4 grains of Unique. Accurate at 40 yards, 1.5" or less. Hope this helps. Thanks, Tom

CEMENTHEAD

That is a Sergeant from the Old Guard in Washington DC. Very prestigeous job in the US Army if you fit in their requirements. Thanks for sharing....Tom

CEMENTHEAD

I have heard these before as well...always good to refresh my memory. Thank you from a 3rd generation US Military Veteran, Tom

CEMENTHEAD

:lol: Take the safety off? LOL Had to ask.... Seriously, possible broken firing pin? Hammer cock with sufficient force? If not possible hammer main spring broken or weak? Reloads or factory ammo? Reloads, it could be primers not seated all the way down. I'm thinkin' broken firing pin......hope this ...

CEMENTHEAD

That's a Beauty!

I hope your son gets some time to bowhunt that place. I was at Ft Carson down I-25 a bit and that place was the same, plenty of elk too. Thanks, Tom

CEMENTHEAD

Very cool! I'll be more impressed when you get them on the trampoline! Thanks, Tom

CEMENTHEAD

Hey that's great! So how many deer was there? 3, 4, or 5? I definately see 3. Very cool, Thanks, Tom

CEMENTHEAD

Ohhhh I like this one....Bolt Action, A Sedgley 1903a3 sporterized w/ a Lyman 48 Peep. Lever Action, A Marlin Model 1895 Takedown, Pistol grip, Octagon Barrel in 33WCF or 45-70. Ahhh those must have been heady times......Thanks, Tom

CEMENTHEAD

Hey Ladies and Gentlemen, The winter is upon us and the mind inside the house is running wild already. I'm looking for a round ball "gallery" load for the 30-30 to shoot in the basement. Any suggestions? I tried my small game load of 5.4 grains of Unique under a .311 round ball....shall we...

86er,
WWGCP is short for Wild West Guns Co-Pilot. Hope this helps, Thanks, Tom

86er, Maybe the Barnes M/LE TAC XP bullets are what your looking for they make a 200 grain bullet for the 44 special. Here's the link..... http://www.barnesbullets.com/products/mle-tactical-bullets/mle-tac-xp-pistol-bullets/ Remington 240 grain SJHP or the old 225 grain Speer half jackets if they st...

:P The same storm that hit you guys is about subsided here. I ran the snow thrower 2x in 4 hours myself. We've got 7" of the white stuff, temps around 26*, wind from the NW @ 20 knots. Tommorow same wind and highs in the 20* range. Perfect weather for the annual Polar Bear plunge at Mackerel Co...
