I use standard small pistol primers with 2400 in 357 loads, but im not going all the way to the top of the scale either. I havent had any split cases or cratered primers so i got to figure its safe enough. I have seen high pressure signs in rifles, notably the 6.5x 55 swedish, the primers and cracks...

I suggest Unique. You'll be able to use that in several cartridges and it will do very well. I used Unique about 7 years ago, had a 1 pound can and it is extremely versatile, can be used in almost every cartridge. Thing i didnt like was my Revo was filthy afterwards and i mean filthy. I mainly use ...

Over my head and abilities. I will stick with jacketed, less problems.

I shot some 125gr jacketed but only about 50 rounds, they didtnt do well. I was told the least you shold use is 158 grs as they stabilize better. That said, i went out today and shot some 158 gr JHP,s under 14.1 grs of 2400 and got good groups at 50 yards, at 100 they opened up but this is due more ...

Thanks for the info. Do you have to lube the bullets yourself or do they come pre-lubed ? Same with the gas checks. I wanted to get into casting but the old lady threw a fit saying she didnt want me melting that stuff in the backyard, i would get sick, blah, blah... I figure i will ease into it soon...

Greetings I am thinking of getting a 45 Colt or a 44 mag in lever action, i already have one in 357. Question is i have always ben under the impression that lead shot in revolvers so long as it is hard and kept under say 1000 fps wont cause leading, or shouldnt. How do you shoot lead rounds thru a r...

or if Marlin had made a "Marlin-jam-less" version with their original slimmer forend if they would have eclipsed the Winnies. <--AJMD429 I have read about this a little on the Marlin board. Is there anything you can do to fix this before it occurs ? Does anyone do the work on the lever her...

Well after doing a little research i think im going with the Skinner sight that salvo recommended or the Marble tang sight. I went to the Midway sight and read the reviews on the Williams rear sight and two guys said it was a little tough to zero in. I figure spend a few extra bucks and get somethin...

Well guys, all i can say is thanks !! Thanks for the explanations, the pictures, the links and the warm welcome !!
I think if i cant learn a thing or two here i better throw the guns in the water bucket.
Thanks once again, to all.

Greetings guys I have a Marlin 1894-c in 357 mag and i usually do most of my rifle shooting in the summer months as i am here in Vegas and its too hot to shoot handguns unless i go out early. The rifle range is covered so the sun doesnt boil your brain. Anyway, i am curious about the peep sights tha...

Another no.
