For your generator, you might look at the Onan's that run on propane, since you will have the propane right there anyway. Also check into a dedicated panel for your water well pump system so it operates independantly of your main system, might be more efficient. Also, most people I know who have gon...

Here's something to chew on :x The gun control issue is on the move, and the politicians want in." - Chicago Sun Times, February 11, 2008 Dear Jerry, This is truly the year for your Brady Campaign and for common sense gun laws. First, Congress passed, and the President signed, the NICS bill to ...

Kind of a long shot here, (levergun pun!), but you might check to see if the cartridge guide spring is catching and hanging up the fired case. It is the flat spring above the chamber that guides the cartridge into the chamber. If they get bent down they can catch. Happened to me about 6 months ago....

At one time when I was still in the service back in about 1976 or so, we put in a solar hot water system. Worked GREAT, reduced my power bill by about 80%. Always had 80 gallons of hot water, water was so hot it had to go thru a cold water mixing valve to get it down to a safe temp before it went to...

I like it here. This is a great board, I only belong to 3 others, Rimfire, Varmints and Steelchickens.

OK, I finally looked it up the back of the Blue Book. Wards was Western Field. Almost all made by Mossberg, Savage & Stevens.

Other stores with "store brand" guns included Coast to Coast, Gambles, J.C. Penny.

I still have a brick of Montgomery Ward's .22 shells, must have had them since the 1970's at least. Wards and Sears not only had their own ammo brands but sold firearms with their name brands as well. Remember J.C. Higgins store brand shotguns sold at Sears? I can't remember Monkey Wards store bran...

It does it with an empty case, so I dont think it's the bullet. It does it with brand new cases or resized ones. The cases are about .012 under max.

it's still a great varmint hunting rig:

OK, fellers, I have closely examined this rifle again for all the potential problems you have outlined. I am convinced it is just the extractor riding up over the rim of the case. I guess maybe it will get better if he just shoots it a lot.

I have a saddle ring carbine 25-35 with a Lyman tang sight. I use it for prairie dogs with the 60 grain Hornady. Really smokes 'em, great splatter factor.

Your description raises several questions for me... before I could formulate an answer beyond what you've been given already. Have you fed the cartridges into the chamber from the top, by hand? If so, do they slide in easily, or are they stopping before the rim is fully against the breech of the ba...

Very nice. Thanks.

I recently purchased a Marlin 336a 30-30, made I believe in about 1948 or so. Very nice condition indeed, no wear or rust whatsoever, a few little handling marks, an easy 95% gun. Bright shiney bore. Thought I had the hot setup for silhouette, but now I am beginning to wonder. :cry: I have run about...

My friend has a model 94 Winchester, one of the commemoratives, that we are getting rigged up for silhouette. The problem arises when trying to close the bolt on a round, the last 1/4 inch or so of the lever travel is very stiff and hard to close, then if you put enough pressure on it, it sort of sn...

I use the Lyman 17a with a post insert. Using a post is different than using a bead, with the bead you put the bead on the target, with the post you use a 6 o'clock hold. The trouble with the bead is that it tends to cover up the whole target, particularly at further distances, while with the post y...

An often overlooked opportunity to get a really great spotting scope is to search ebay every day for an older Redfield. These are easily recognized by their red crinkle finish. They are usually 15x45 power. I have had one of these for over 30 years and wouldnt trade for any of todays low to mid pric...

Try for an older Marlin 39a without the safety and the rebounding hammer. You'll be very happy!!
