Re: Building a garden shed

I have a wood frame 12x20’ shed that I enclosed and insulated the back 8’ for bullet casting. I rant a 20 Amp line into the shed with 10 gauge wire, cut a hole for an exhaust vent hood over my lead pot. The insulation I used was just left over sheets from a previous project then I covered it all in ...

Re: Moving away from the AR-15

For several years I had a real hog problem here at the house. I decided to try the AR platform to develop a real opinion on it compared to other rifles. I started by shooting several with the 223. Like your experience I found it killed them but they generally ran and blood trail were minimal to non ...

Re: Elmer's Bullets

I can remember trying to find a proper example of each of his molds back when I started casting. For some reason there is just something magical with a batch of freshly cast Keith bullets or especially a box loaded with Keith loads.

I have several Cimarron’s made by Uberti. They have all been good revolvers that shoot quite well.

Re: Chronographing Today

I can understand that. One year at the holiday I was shooting some Remington Golden bullets in a Marlin 39. Extraction was a little stiff, and when I finally looked at a fired case there was no firing pin indent because the pressure had pushed it back flat. That was a really hot batch of ammo. Most ...

It was really nice getting up there this fall. I really didn’t think that would happen. It is always refreshing spending a few days with friends.

Re: How many of you

Lately I have been shooting at a 15” plate with a 22 handgun quite a bit. My routine starts at 75 yards and I go back to 175 yards 10 to 12 step at a time. I can’t move back until the target is hit. There are 10 or 11 “stations” depending on how many steps I take. So far my best is 10 hits in 13 sho...
