My Puma in .480 is the King in my gun safe. There are better and nicer guns available, but that is what I own and it works pretty well. I haven't shot my new 1895GS yet, but the King might need to abdicate.

By the way, the 325 grain loads can be run up to nearly 1550fps in a 7Â½ inch barrel revolver, but they aren't much fun and the accuracy actually gets worse. I have the best accuracy from dropping the 325 grain bullets about 100fps from factory, and the 400 grain going about 150fps faster. Go figure.

Ricky did shoot my .480 Ruger Puma. I had it loaded with 400 grain Speer Gold-Dot flat points with H110. Over the Chrony it was moving about 1250 fps, and in the Puma it isn't too bad. Go up in velocity or weight and it starts to get uncomfortable. I can run it up to about 1400 fps in the Puma witho...

Nice looking rifle, and it looks like it shoots good now. Hope you have fun with it. Maybe the next time you go to Hondo you can bring it along.

DixieBoy, that was well said and well thought out. It appears that I spoke a little too soon up above.

I must apologize for my earlier post, Bloomberg is NOT the one who made himself rich by bankrupting the Bank of England. That was George Soros of MoveOn.org. I do still have a low opinion of Bloomberg's tactics. He is the one who got Wal Mart to agree to videotape and keep the video of all firearm s...

piller

Bloomberg has sent undercover agents to other states to illegally purchase firearms. Why has he not been prosecuted for it. I guess being Filthy rich makes you above the law. I also don't remember him being prosecuted when he effectively ripped off the Bank of England to make himself rich.

I hate the 5.56 NATO, mostly because I hated the M16-A1 I was saddled with until I out shot the rest of the Company on the M-60. I can't really say that I dislike any other caliber. I think that I am the only one left who likes the .480 Ruger. I does pretty well if I do my part. For me it is simply ...

I have heard some bad things said of NCStar, and it seems based on the report here that what was said is true. I have not used any of their stuff, and I don't plan to. I like the Weaver and the Leupold stuff that I have used.

Ysabel, I agree that the LEOs need to be able to continue to enforce laws during this time, and I also agree that we need protection from overzealous individuals. Compromise is never perfect, but humans aren't perfect either. I do think that laws should have some way for sense to be used so that enf...

I sure hope he is let go lightly. I doesn't appear that he had any intent to do anything, and perhaps a judge will take that into account. Remember when General Joe Foss had his Medal of Honor taken away, even though he was allowed to mail it to his home, by airport security who thought it was a thr...

Gents, it seems we may be letting assumptions about others prevent thoughtful and meaningful dialogue.

Hobie, it appears you were right.

Good pictures, Joe. Hope to be able to go with you in a couple of years.

I am proud to see that the large majority of the Kansas Legislature is doing what their citizens want and need. Way to go. (Ok, maybe the 2 who voted against it are are doing what their constituents want)

piller

I am still undecided on whom to vote for. I'm not too happy with the choices. While I think that Ron Paul may be the best choice, he really has no chance. I may have to vote against Obama or Hillary and mark McCain. The lesser of the two evils is not giving me the warm fuzzies.

I haven't replaced the front sight yet, but I have to confess that I have not had a day off since I got it and it is sadly unfired.

I'll have to correct that next week when I have a day off.

piller

OI, I agree with you completely.

Ursavus, you want to scope one? Shooting Times says the scope bases are the Weaver #403 for both front and rear.

I added a Skinner peep sight to the new Guide Gun. I know, I'm adding gadgets to it even before I shoot it. I don't think this makes it a Rooney gun, and it seems to be useful. http://i264.photobucket.com/albums/ii176/dbcasady/picturealbum3378-1.jpg http://i264.photobucket.com/albums/ii176/dbcasady/...

If Hobie and Paul think that I was wrong in my attitude on some of the locked posts, then I apologize. Even adults can sometimes require a little direction, and as adults we should not allow our feelings to be hurt to the point that we lash out at each other. How about if someone feels offended, the...

I have used 12 and 20 gauge on pheasants for a bunch of years. I have seen that a few people don't like the recoil of the 3 or the 3Â½ inch 12 gauge. When you leave the comparisons to the 2 3/4 inch shells, yes the 12 gauge is usually a little faster. At the distance across most rooms in a house thi...

Having read the U.S. Constitution completely through about 10 times now, I find nothing that would prohibit We The People from deliberating and comparing a law with what is in the Constitution. If a law violates our Constitutional rights, then within the legal system is the best place to change that...

Jury Nullification is when a Jury unanimously agrees that a law is unjust or unconstitutional and by informing the Judge, nullifies that law. It must go to a Court of Appeals or it becomes null and void.

My brother the Surgeon likes operating on engineers and mechanics. When he opens up the engineers everything is color coded, numbered, and grouped by categories and there is always something that needs to be fixed. The mechanics are great because they understand if there are a few parts left over af...

I did not say that he was a good person. You are attempting to put words in my mouth. I am simply saying that the doper characterization has nothing to back it up. Until the Doctor's records are subpoened, or the Pharmacy records subpoened we cannot know that he was a doper. He did make terroristic ...

At least someone provided an example of what to never duplicate.

If he was on the 40 mg methadone he was a doper, if he was on the other strengths he wasn't. I see more dopers on hydrocodone/apap than you can shake a stick at, but only on so far on methadone. If you add carisoprodol (Soma) with the hydrocodone/apap there is a huge chance that the person will beco...

Well, Clyde Barrow did live in Dallas at one time and he was reputed to be crazy as a squirrell. Maybe he learned from the squirrells in Dallas.

I read the link and Eberle was prescribed the Methadone for pain management. As I stated, the Texas laws allow for that. Methadone is a fair pain reliever as it does not give the addiction problems that Hydrocodone/Apap, Oxycodone, Morphine, Hydromorphone, or Fentanyl give. It lasts about 8 hours an...

piller

Just my 2 cents worth, but you should all be aware that if you are on a jury and a law comes into the trial which you consider to be unconstitutional, Jury Nullification is an option. This effectively removes that law from being enforced or used until it is reviewed and ruled upon by a court of appe...

It is not about reducing crime, it is about controlling the serf and slaves that the public will become.

piller

As a Pharmacist, I can tell you that there is a lot more to being prescribed methadone than simply to treat addiction. In fact, to treat addiction with it, a Doctor has to be certified and go through training for it. The Doctor also gets a specially numbered DEA license number. Almost any Doctor can...

I don't know much about Ron Paul, but for me and in politics, that says something good about the person. The old saying "Fools Names like fools faces always appear in public places" holds too true in an election year. The more I hear about them, the more they appear to be a fool in most ca...

More prayers sent. Sorry to hear about it. Bummer.

piller

Prayers sent. Ask her Doctor if she can take one of the sublingual liquid B vitamins and if it would help. They have a lot of B-12 in them and B-6 to help get the iron into the blood. Not to be pushy, but red meat helps a lot also.

Thanks Hobie. Is that with a gas check on the bullet, or does it need one at that velocity?

Shooting Times magazine says that the front and rear scope mounts are the Weaver #403 bases. Does that help?

I don't know if you know this, but by using a little Borax on the steel, you can weld two pieces of steel together at a lower temperature than melting occurs at.

If Hillary has an accident and breaks her legs, the unfortunate part is that it won't shut her mouth. I feel sorry for what happened to Eight Belles. I like animals, not just the tasty ones.

Here is a picture of my new Guide Gun stainless in .45-70. I am waiting on the dies to arrive from Midwayusa. I am thinking of using 350 grain bullets and pushing them around 1700fps.

As one of the many folks on this forum who has a Puma, that is where my vote goes. Nothing against Henry, but I like the Puma as I am not worried about getting it scratched. It is a meat gun for me.
