Prayers up for those killed and their familys.

We had the same thing here in Colorado, the other day, but luckily the trooper was OK, just battered up somewhat.

Thunder50

Yep, ins't Colorado in the Spring, interesting. 70's yesterday and was snowing earlier today.

Thunder50

Don't think Ruger ever made a long barrel like that. Now, if you can find a 357max barrel and have it rebored, then you would be GTG, but can't help you otherwise.

Thunder50

Agree, the ammomaster works well, although I have heard many use the Lee 50 cal kit and it works well for them. Ammomaster would be better if you are sizing down brass fired in an M2, but if from a bolt gun, then I would go with the Lee. Hard to beat it for the price, coming with dies and such.

Thunder50

I would try the firelapping first. See how that works. You could also cast a lap and work down on the breech end of the rifle and see if you could get rid of some of any remaining constriction, left over after firelapping. If you do have to re-line, then it would be better if the barrel was drilled ...

Thunder50

Was gonna guess a 625( cause I have one), but had already been beat to that. Great pistol

Yesterday, at least, Midway had Starline 45 AR brass in stock. Mine was shipped today!!!:)

Thunder50

Ruger SP101 in 9mm?

Thunder50

How do you know it was Boeings mistake? Takes alot of power to transmit the "pings" for a month. Leave an interior light on in your car and see how long the battery lasts. Can it doe it at 15,000 ocean depth. If it was the pilot hijacking the plane, then the carrier and the pilots estate s...

LGS has one in 303 savage. Built in 1904. Bore little ragged, but not too bad. Wood been refinished at one time and most of that is gone. Straight stock, but has a rear peep sight. Just wondering what the thing is worth and can you even get brass for it.

Thanks

Thunder50

I can only think of adding some heat. Propane torch set on low. Someone might have used loctite on the threads of the plug. I am sure someone that knows alot more than I will come along and help.

Thunder50

If you can wait a few days to order the brass and dies, I will be home. I might have a set of dies and some brass as I used to have a 35 win 1895, but not anymore.

Thunder50

I have heard of that happening when the fit is too "tight" with the barrel in the frame or the barrel is torqued down too much. It puts a "choke" in the barrel. You might be able to get some cast bullets and impregnate them with a fine valve grinding compound or "JB Paste&qu...

Liked Elvis as a kid. Beach Boys and the Beatles, still like them all. Saw Elvis in his last concert he ever gave. Had a leftover ticket. Threw it away when I moved. Wish I had it back, wonder what it would be worth? Like most of the 60's rock, some 70's and 80' but not a whole lot after that. Liste...

Elk can eat the young willows by the rivers and in high water years, can change the rivers path, causing it to meander faster. By the wolves eating the elk, the willows can grow and anchor the stream edges and slow the meander of the river/stream. Haven't watched any programs on this lately, but I r...

Hole would have puked out the F-150's if any had fallen in

Sister once had a 327 Fuelie, till dad took it away because of her street racing with it!!!!

Thunder50

Maybe try the Hornady 180gr single shot pistol bullet.. Supposed to be a great bullet in the 357max.

Thunder50

Hmm, Remington custom shop Model 7 MS(mannlicher stock) or a Good double rifle (Chapuis or Kreigoff). My O3A3 is close

Thunder50

Might have a set of new Lee dies if you are interested.

Thunder50

Looks like they drank from the "Fountain of Mediocrity" before last nights game. I wonder if anyone missed Tebow at some time last night. I , personally, think they should have kept him, and had Manning teach him, but thats just me.

Thunder50

If you have a fuels dealer close to you, go in and ask them if they sell any fuel that doesn't have ethanol in it. Some do sell it. Maybe get to know someone that has an aircraft and beg some avgas from them.

Thunder50

I use a cast iron dutch oven over a turkey fryer burner to smelt my lead. You will have to sort your stash and clean out the zinc and steel ww's. I would go with the 20 lb pot. Better yet, try and find a decent used Saeco or lyman pot.

Thunder50

I believe NOE has clones of RD's moulds (used with permission). They are great moulds

Thunder50

NOE moulds. Check into a 375 that was made from the same cherry as the rcbs 35-200 bullet, but cut on an eccentric, so it came out at 235 gr. Mine is a 382-235, that I got to use in a 38-55, but I believe that he made a slightly smaller version for 375's, and H&H's. Check out his line of 44 moul...

Thunder50

If they are early 77's, are they flatbolt guns? If so, then they have douglas barrels on them and are good shooters. Do they have sights on them? If so, the 77rs '06 is rare from what I have heard. Do more research on them, they might be worth more than you think.

Thunder50

Try precision machine, in Oklahoma City. Used to shoot IHMSA with the owner, now his son runs it. They both were fantastic machinists. Haven't been by in a few years, so check to see if they are still there.

Thunder50

Don't forget to PM me when you are coming back to the FoBD range. I will meet you there. Will bring my Trapdoor.

Thunder50

Went by there and got a tour, many years ago. Bought some of their seconds. Still have a bunch of them too.

Thunder50

A younger Selleck would have been perfect, for the movie.

Thunder50

Any of you guys read Baldacci's books. Pretty good too. I think I have read all the Reacher novels also, but haven't seen the movie. I can relate to Reacher, he is my size.

Thunder50

Please put my name in the hat.

Thunder50

Have had 3 of them. A Ruger #1A which I sold too cheaply, a Savage 340 (haven't shot that one, planning on sellling it too) and my NEF, which I am keeping. Both the Ruger and the NEF will go about 7/8" using Lil Gun and 40gr Vmax bullets. Sold the Ruger 'cause I found a #1s in 218 Bee. Didn't n...

On an aside note, after all the anti-gun/mag cap limitation laws here in Colorado, looks like Magpul is backing up their promise to leave the state. Just saw on TV they are moving their manufacturing to Cheyenne, WY , with headquarters in Texas.

Thunder50

Electric razor. Tried the blade thing, but neck ended up irritated and bloody. Baby soft skin, combined with tough as wire beard wasn't a good combo. First Norelco razor lasted about 30 years, then my newish bride decided to shave her legs with it. Wasn't the same after that. She loved it on her leg...

Thunder50

I think pete44ru has got it!!

Thunder50

Wheather I use a mag primer or not, depends on the case. Your load will tell you if it likes it or not. I have a 375 H&H load that tightens up real well with a mag primer, but the powder is not normally thought to need one. I also have a 357max rifle that does not like a mag primer.

Was at a tractor pull one fall. No one was able to pull the sled all the way, until an old JD "B" or "C" (IIRC) was hooked up. That 2 cylinder tractor pulled the sled all the way and kept going. shocked everyone, except the old farmer that used the tractor. Really humiliated a bu...

Prayers up

Had to resist buying the one at the south side of Denver, Cabelas store. Pretty good shape. It was $549 if anyone is interested. Got them to knock off $20 and he said if I would sign up for a card, another $25 off. I had to walk away. Course, when I got home, there was a $20 off card in the mail. Do...

Thunder50

I like the Hornady Unique case lube.

Thunder50

I understand too well. Had to do the same last month to mine. I looked at it as the last act of kindness I could do to my friend.

Thunder50

Use to hear those things around the oil fields quite a bit. At least that is what I think the engines were, cause they sound just like in the videos

Thunder50

Got one that I am thinking of parting with. 356 Win. Don't have a clue what these things are worth now. anyone help out here? Thanks

Thunder50

I would go with a Saeco #353 or a lyman 358429 (might be too long for your revolver cylinder), or better yet, a NOE 360180 fn or their 359175rf in a plain base version. NOE also has a copy of the 358429 and the 359175rf is a close copy of the Saeco mould. NOE makes excellent moulds Gas check if you ...

Thunder50

Just tell the significant other that you will just leave the seat down all the time. And, that if you have to #1, then you will just use the bathroom sink!!!

Told the wife that one time in jest, she did NOT find any humor in that!!!!! Was kind of "frosty" in the house that evening

Thunder50

And IIRC, that Euell Gibbons fella keeled over with a heart attack, in his late 60's or early 70's. With what he ate, I figured he would make at least 100

Thunder50

Go over on Accurate Reloading forums, to the double gun section and you can find all about the gun. Those that have them, IIRC, like them. They are quite stiff new, but eventually loosen up, and can be quite accurate for such a gun. The fence is split on the 45-70. Some say the barrels at the muzzle...

Marine Tex is an excellent quality epoxy. Auto supply (NAPA or such should have it). You might use a popsicle stick to force the epoxy into the crack, then use a hose clamp to close the crack up a bit while the epoxy hardens (I would give it 24 hours at least).

Thunder50

A good epoxy. Marine tex or something like that. Clean the crack well, you might use alcohol or possibly carb cleaner (check first to see if it dissolves plastic.

Probably not anyone on this site that doesn't have their hands and arms covered by some scars from life and many an "oops--dang that smarts". I know, I got plenty!!

If you are getting alot of crud in the chamber, when using the suppressor, maybe you are getting more gas volume back into the action, you are getting more "crud" there and some of it is flowing in the chamber. Try a different ammo, if that doesn't help, try the gas piston upper. I think t...
