I will go for one more post guys just to explain why I feel like I feel.

I disagree with Junior on this one, but it seems to me that there is getting to be way too many personal attacks on someone if you don't agree with him. Leverguns used to be a little better than this a while ago. I sure can't call Bruce a good Christian after him saying to Junior that his Grandchild...

I picked up a Uberti Cattleman last Aug. and tried a few different powder with 200gr. Cast Bullets. They all were fine, but I liked 5.5gr of Clays very well and Trail Boss is what I settled on. It fills the case much better for more consistant firings, and like AmBraCol says, the pressures are less,...

I have always worn ear protection while on the range. However, I never wear plugs while duck hunting, and with all of my duck and goose shooting over the years, and with the years as a driller on drilling rigs, my hearing is terrible. I have to wear a hearing aid at all times. I find that the Walker...
