Re: Californians, place your Amazon orders now
It won't make a difference to me. I don't buy a lot of big ticket items on Amazon so saving on sales tax was just gravy. In almost all cases Amazon has a lower sale price than any B&M store in my area so I'll keep buying from Amazon. And the fact that Amazon has conceded the battle on collecting...

Re: Looking for reloading data for 44 Mag for use in a carbine.
I just shoot paper with my Winchester 92 so I went with a 180gr Missouri Bullet #7 RNFP bullet over 11gr of Unique. It chronos right around 1600 fps and gives me sub-2" 5-shot groups at 50 yards.

Re: Sight pusher for Miroku Winchester 92?
I ended up ordering a Marble folding sport rear sight which is windage adjustable. So I'll file the sight dovetails to fit the barrel and touch up blue them. Then use masking tape to mark the barrel centerline and drift the front and rear sights to center. I should have everything in hand on Thursda...

Re: Sight pusher for Miroku Winchester 92?
Thanks guys. That's what I suspected after doing multiple Google searches. Brass punch is on order. Already have a ball peen hammer suitable for the job. I was hoping to use a pusher so I could make final sight adjustments at the range where I won't have access to a bench vise. Shasta, the thread yo...

Sight pusher for Miroku Winchester 92?
The front sight blade on my Winchester 1892 (1996 manf) got bent when the rifle took a tumble onto the garage floor. Removing it was pretty simple with a punch and hammer. I have a Marble fiber optic replacement on order from Brownells and don't think I'll have much difficulty fitting and installing...
