I decided not to. 100-200fps did not seem worth it for me.
I'll never use a 30-30 for animals larger than deer or black bear, or for shots outside 200 yds and it is good medicine for that without changing anything.

Not correct or normal. Something is amiss..... I'm guessing this rifle has not seen a lot of use. Might just be gummy with factory oil, but my guess is the cartridge stop is not doing it's job. The cartridge stop is on the front of the lever-link, which is the bottom-most part on the receiver. Winch...

Maybe y'all could get a copy of the petition and take it in with ya to places that sell guns and ammo when you shop at those places. Just because folks don't have a CCW does not mean they don't want those of you who do watching their backs in more places. My wife would sign it. She does not have a C...

North Dakotans take note:
An initiative has been started to improve the CCW laws. Heard it on Tom Gresham's Guntalk. If you live in ND or know someone who does, this will improve safety there. They need something like 12k signatures and a few sponsors. http://www.thehighroad.org/showthread.php?p=4053513 I think his email is ...

If it's too big, the 3/32 ones are available. I like a flat faced bead, if I'm using a bead. Some folks prefer post, I like both - you can thin and square the factory one some.

Post your review of the tang sights you owned.
My Taurus tang needed some snugging up - a little woobly. I used blue loctite and broke it loose. I still have to drill and tap it to use the same apertures as the Marbles, Lyman, Williams.

Congratulations to you! Do you have a style preference? Some ideas: 1892 clones: she in 357 Mag. and yours in 454 Casul. You could buy a 357 Mag. pistol to share ammo with her rifle/pistol combo. 1894 Marlin: you in 44 Mag. and her in 357 Mag, each with a Ruger Blackhawk in your respective calibers...

Changing from one ammo to another in any gun changes point of impact - both windage and elevation. I would recommend the same ammo in both for personal defense. No need to adjust your sights for inside the home distances. The 125's are fine. I do not believe penetration will be a problem in-home. Th...
