I believe at least one other on the forum has a Bullard rifle. A Canadian , G. Scott Jamieson, has authored two wonderful books on the Bullard rifle. These books are rich in the description,history,specifics and stunning pictures of the Bullard rifle story. I had the pleasure and good fortune to cor...

What are the implications of loading 3F Black in a 40-65 ? I can't get 2F and I finally got my hands - through a friend - on a can of 3F. Let the games begin.
A couple years ago the wife -a week before season- says "I want my own rifle to shoot my own deer". Scrambling (during Covid) to find a Youth 7mm-08 for the petite lady of my life the only option was an Savage Axis 6.5 CM. The only good thing hunting wise to come out of that season was the...
I do not have a Micro 9 but after a number of Kimbers, I am sold on them. One of the few (early) factory/custom 1911s to reliably run right out of the box. Presently a Kimber Custom and a Custom Compact CDP (my EDC) is home here. I ran the micro trial via a Sig 238 then 938 to no further interest in...
"he committed his friend's soul into the hands of God" Question here, NOT a disagreement! Isn't his soul already in the hands of God and is this not just a celebration of such?
Fascinating, simply fascinating thread. Awaiting the 44 Short (44 Special), 44 Long (44 Mag) thread. . Seriously though I'm amazed at the depth and breadth of knowledge of the gentlemen here.
Had lunch Thursday with a forum member and his charming wife. It's so encouraging and refreshing to talk to like minded people. So much negativity bombards us daily that talking to fellow patriots keys us to remember there are far more of us than of them.
Nosler Book #9 lists it in the 950 fps range in the 44 Special section. In the bullet reference section they describe it "Allows for reliable expansion and maximum accuracy across a abroad velocity range."
Nice going. Nice to see another Bullard in the group. Mine could be a twin except mine has a pistol grip. Have you got the Bullard books? I hope to shoot a Buffalo with mine (40-75-260) this winter. Is yours a true 40-65 or 40-75 ?
Outside of hunting and the like I do not open carry. I never leave the house without carrying, just not open. Furthermore I am a firm believer in what I've heard called the "Grey Man" concept in that I do not wear anything ( NRA shirts, Pro 2ND shirts, etc) that draws attention to the craz...
Just curious...Why do you desire enamel cast over regular cast? I've used cast iron for decades, but have recently started using a high quality triple clad stainless steel. It heats more evenly, and if used on low/medium heat like cast iron I can't tell the difference, except it's way easier to cle...
Here in South Central Montana (Billings) my Ruger M77 Tang Safety 30-06 would normally, and has had, the nod. When chance at heavier game like Elk and up I have more assurance with my Remington 700 Classic in 35 Whelen. Lighter game in years past (Antelope,Whitetail/Mulies) has been the 257 Improved...
Wife would like a Dutch Oven. Enameled Dutch Oven. (We) bought her one at Walley World. Error on a couple of levels. Lodge cookware -what WE bought - is USA made says I. Well yes and No. Fine reading reveals that Lodge is US made except for the Enameled selections which are made in ......drum role.....
Someone awhile back (wayyyyyyyyyyy back) asked for some pictures of my 40/75/258 Bullard. As a dumb kid some 50 years ago I mixed up some brown tinted bedding compound to fix a gouge or ding in the pistol grip of the stock. That is what that brown dog doo on the pistol grip is. I seem to recall some...
To those that are interested the just out "Guns" magazine "Old West , History,Guns & Gear" volume #88 has a pretty good article on the Bullard Rifle titled strangely enough "The Fabulous Bullard Rifle".
