Done. Any update on your friend? 1886.

I have good luck with Ballistol. I store them in my humid basement. Never an issue. I also store my primers in the basement and have not noticed any degradation. I thought my primers would be toast after the humidity of many past summers. No issues. I find that a little surprising. 1886.

Yes, a Honda QA50. Very slow. A gently used German made Sun Downer. 2 cycle, pull start, auto tranny. I purchased that bike with my paper route $$. Very nice bike. Dad brought home a well tuned Suzuki TM 100. Very fast, loud, and scary for a 12yr old! Wow! The dogs and neighbors would really bark wh...

1886

Yes, great find. 1886.

1886

If the original 95 was chambered for the .45.90, I don't know, it seems logical from a manufacturing cost point of view, to use one receiver for the various, offered chamberings. I am shooting from the hip, though. You may consider dropping Mic McPherson a line. He does a lot of work on modern Marli...

Does your rifle wear the original barrel? If so, you could load a dummy round to the length you plan to load and check for functioning? Regards, 1886.

1886

Maybe they are trying to appeal to younger shooters? Two of the candy stores in my area have recently added a tactical/black rifle section with a dedicated staff. The staff and the clientele are generally younger. I do not notice much interaction or interest(they are cordial) between these folks and...

I'd think the 180's are probably better deer bullets at their higher velocities. I live in grizzly country though, so am looking at the heavier bullets. All that I've been able to learn indicates the 220's are pretty tough bullets. If the 180's will give similar penetration, they may be fine also, ...

1886

.. why rechamber to .356 Win.? I understand wanting something different. I do not believe you will see any meaningful difference in velocity and if your Marlin is accurate, which it probably is, there is no guarantee that the rechambered rifle will shoot a s well. The .35 Rem. is a killer as it is....

1886

Very nice project. Thank you for sharing. 1886.

1886

They work great. I believe Buffalo Bore ammo co. pushes them to approx. 2200 FPS. I have loaded very close to that velocity in a "more modern" Marlin 336 .35 Rem. Case capacity became a challenge for me. I believe Remington brass has slightly greater capacity. I do have a question for you,...

Yes Sir. Happy Birth Day. Regards, 1886.

Happy Birthday, Sir. I wish you many more. 1886.

I am considering a Taurus M92 stainless in .357 that I have found at a Pawn Shop near work. The barrel length is 16" and the price is $599. Does anyone know if the Taurus will reliably feed .38 Special, or is it sensitive to the OAL like the Rossi M92s are? I am not really serious about gettin...

1886

Has anyone voted for the 7600 chambered in .35 Rem.? Pretty kool shooter. 1886.

1886

Depends. I am no fan of the rebounding hammer and the tang safety. I would opt for the 73 as there are other 92 clones floating around. Just me. 1886.

1886

Sounds like a man who put others before himself. Thank you for your service, Sir. God Bless, 1886.

1886

Timberdoodle. Nice. 1886.

1886

Just a side note and I am certain you are aware of this, be certain all fouling is removed from the bore before slugging. This includes copper, lead, powder. 1886.

1886

Yes, happy birthday. I wish you many, many more. 1886.

1886

I just stumbled onto a 336 in 38-55. The rifle is like new and has the JM stamp on the barrel. I will get some pictures posted. It doesn't appear to be very old, it is like new but I had never heard of the 38-55 and am trying to find out all I can. I am doing internet searches but not having a lot ...

The bore on my Rossi 92 manufactured in the early 1980s (they call it a model 65) measures .429. It wears a .44 mag barrel. I am confident Rossi did this to ease manufacturing costs. This suits me just fine as there are plenty of properly sized projectiles available. As stated by others, only way to...

1886

If you do buy the rifle, purchase Starline 2.125" brass and projectiles sized .380-.381" and have a blast. They are great rifles. 1886.

Can't speak to the cartridge having never fired one, but the Savage 110 Scout is a solid rifle, you'll be happy with it. If it's the newer ones with the mag release in front of the mag, even better (the side button occasionally dropped mags). Not sure why they ever thought that spot was a wise idea...

Go for it.... A friend and I both have the Ruger Frontier in .358 Winchester...great little guns. I have a 2.5X Leupold IER scope on mine and my friend just upgraded to a 2-7 Burris Scout scope with their ballistic-drop reticle. I've killed one deer with mine using the Speer 220 FP. My friend uses ...

1886

There seems to be a lot of discussion lately regarding the .358 Win. I recently pick up Savage's latest version of their scout rifle chambered in .308. I have been considering a rechamber/rebore to .358 Win and topping it with a Leatherwood L.E.R 2x7. I am very fond of the .358. I welcome your feedb...

I never loaded the Hornet in the 1885. I have experience with that round in a Clark Custom 77/22. A case FULL of LIL Gun and a 34gr something, maybe a Noslar projectile with Rem. small rifle primers was my load.

Will some one explain why the FCD is so great for cast in leverguns or any other rifle for that matter? Was gonna start another thread, but figure it goes with this. Never gave this much thought cuz I generally shoot more singleshots than levers. A reason many prefer the LFCD is that it is possible...

Doc AJ (and anyone else here) - Now I'm all confused! I'm sure not a novice reloader, having been doin' it for 1/2 a century. However, I've recently acquired a Rossi 92 .357 and it has been a little cantankerous. Not nearly as slick as the little 1981 Marlin 1894 .357 I stupidly sold off to a (form...
