Suggestions, removing scope base adhesive
Recently picked up a late 1960s manufacture Marlin 336. Someone along the way "glued" a scope base to the top of the receiver. Any recommendations on removing the adhesive without harming the finish on the top of the receiver? I was able to easily remove the scope base. The remnants of the...

Re: Any wannabe .44-40 reloaders out there?
Although I'm not a .44-40 shooter and have been reloading for years, I've got a buddy that's just getting started in both. Inherited his Grandpop's '92 and just bought a Uberti SA to go with it. If you find no other takers I'm sure he'd made good use of it and be thankful for it. He's been having a...

Re: 358 Moose Bullet
Another vote for the Speer 220. It is a tough bullet. Their 180gr version has an equally good reputation. You did not ask about the .35 Rem. but... I have heard of a number of Maine moose guides who use the .35 Rem with the Remington 200gr factory load. They report excellent results on moose. 1886.
