Thank you, Pm sent. -Andy

Your quite welcome my friend. Even I get bit testy at times, and we all have our peeves. I feel a bit bad about my post about the 10mm to Piller, I had something "stick in my craw" as Robert Duvall said in Open Range. I just have been really dissatisfied with the way the whole 10mm debacle has been ...

Found this for the horse paste dosage, it looks pretty solid. I would double check the dosage but I think this guy did his homework. -Tutt

You are so funny!

CowboyTutt

No, thats a complete joke as you know.

CowboyTutt

Jeremy, that was my experience too. I think I only spoke to him 2 times, maybe 3. We often got off task about my sixgun and would talk about Harley's or something. He never seemed to mind taking the time with me. Every conversation we had was a gem. I would agree he was a very good man and such a hu...

I like the looks of those "banana grips" on that gun. Jim, that is impressive shooting if you ask me with the sights that gun comes with. I'm used to or prefer white outlined target rear sights: S&W red plastic insert on a ramp, gold bar, fiber optic, tritium front blah blah etc etc sights to help g...

CowboyTutt

Wow, I guess in hindsight I really got lucky with my Rossi Puma in 454 Casull that I had McPherson work over many years ago. It actually did slug out at .452 and seems to shoot pretty well. It started to crack the stock as they all do so off it went to McPherson although this was the plan all along ...

CowboyTutt

Well, I just about peed my pants when I read your response Pillar. It was so funny!! I have a few "sticking points" when it comes to the 10mm. For the longest time, the 10mm was down-loaded to 40 S&W. Call it "short and weak". You call it 10mm Special. Boy oh boy, load it as was it was originally in...

CowboyTutt

Yes Sir, a 1911 in 10mm is a dandy. Just be ready to chase brass about 30 yards. 😆 Ted, your gun is set up for the weaker 40 Smith and Weak cartridge, not the hot loaded 10mm as it was originally designed to be. You need to change out your recoil spring to a 22 lb one. All will be fine then. Its a ...

It doesn't look like anyone posted on this that I could see, but the video of the surface of Mars in the Rover's descent is astonishing! Way to go NASA!!!! More footage to come in the future too. -Tutt

I think Jay got it right after doing some research (like 1 minute's worth). :) If it is G.A. its also called "tiger wood" which would fit the pictures. This has been Esmeralda O'Sheehan's wood of choice for her grips for years and years. Teak is what is used on yachts thus my guess. Always a pleasur...

I have always wanted an original large frame Colt Lightning rifle in 50-95. Not the most reliable guns but like an E-type Jag from the 60's to '71 they just have some unmistakable character when they run. -Tutt

CowboyTutt

An oversize base pin with a locking set screw is a must for sure. I went with Belt Mountain Sheriff's base-pin. The #5 pin is prettier but this one allows a longer ejector rod stroke than factory or the #5 Elmer Keith version. They are still made today so many years later. Hand-fitting the parts to ...

Teak? -Tutt

I just spoke again tonight with Becky Munden. I can't say enough about her. -A-

CowboyTutt

Been without power here for days on end over the summer due to fire problems. One of my most rewarding moments was when I went to the city office to recharge my phone and other items. I was surrounded by fellow neighbors who felt the same way. It was singularly one of the most exciting moments I hav...

This article came out almost 2 months ago and somehow I missed it until just a week ago or so. A new forum friend pointed out to me recently that Bob Munden's Six Gun Magic was still functioning because Bob had the foresight to choose a friend and gunsmith to be his understudy and taught him how he ...

It was at the Lytel Creek Shooting range. I have never been there, but its only 40 minutes from JR's home. We had a nice long conversation last night, we are thinking about a shooting event at the Angeles Range. -Tutt

CowboyTutt

Thank you Scott. I have no cartridges using this size primer, so its only academic to me. But noted. Thank you Sir!!! -Tutt

CowboyTutt

Camping gear comes mighty handy during these times! Glad your doing well Jim! -Tutt

CowboyTutt

Curious, found these by Esmerelda. Even prettier than my grips, for which I provided her the original blanks. These are prettier than mine I think, just not ambidextrous. I would say "buy" if they work for you.

Marbles "Bullseye" rear sight does look interesting, I have to say. -Tutt

CowboyTutt

Yeah it actually looks like they have quite a few models. I was interested to see that the 45 Colt leverguns are also listed at a 1:38 twist now (not just the 44 Mags) and I didn’t realize the 444 marlin had a 1:10 twist...! I got it admit I’d like to see them get into the hyphenated old cartridges...

Seems like a pretty extensive catalog? I bet Henry is getting a bit nervous.

Its more a preventative. The Moderna and Pfizer vaccine is a 2 part treatment about 4 weeks apart. It builds up antibodies in your system so if you catch it, you will probably have no symptoms. BUT you can still be a asymptomatic carrier of the virus. Ivermectin is an effective remedy as you know. I...

CowboyTutt

I have like 6 tubes on order, more for my friends who don't want to get vaccinated. I had my 2nd Moderna shot on last Saturday. Makes your arm hurt for days. -Tutt

CowboyTutt

LOL :D First off, Griff is a good friend of mine although we have not spoken in years. He came to a shooting event at Friends of Billy Dixon Ultra Long Range Shooting Facility years ago. He was much welcome and added a lot to the company at Torkelson's house afterwards. IIRC his SASS number is like ...

CowboyTutt

I've shot the Buffington one time through a friend's Trap Door. It does work pretty well. Perhaps its only drawback is it was zeroed for 250 yards. Anything shorter than that was considered "point blank" range and you aimed for the beltline of your target and hoped for the best. My 71/84 Mauser I th...

CowboyTutt

I did my best to take some photos of the sight picture through 3 receiver sights. The first one is through the Lyman 66 on my 454 McPherson Puma. https://hosting.photobucket.com/images/f39/Cowboytutt/0215211128a_2.jpg The Lyman from the side. Its adjustable for elevation (quite a lot actually) and w...

CowboyTutt

Tutt, You can get on faster with a tang sight...you throw the gun up and just look at the front sight......the same as with a receiver sight but with the receiver sight you still have to "look" for the opening..the tang sight peep hole is there instantly, slightly longer sight radius and is easier ...

CowboyTutt

Dad, according to the reviews, it doesn't look exactly like a drop in fit, best to send it to a qualified gunsmith for installation I think unless you have some gunsmiting skills. That being said, probably still cheaper than a full custom lever. A custom levergun will bring you years of shooting joy...

CowboyTutt

No tang sights here, I prefer a receiver sight. The tang sight sits so much lower in elevation than the top of the receiver, it has to be very long just to get to the same sight of the top of the receiver. Seems counter-productive to me. The Lyman 66 with Brownells Twilight apertures mounted into th...

Ted, those grips are amazing and one of a kind too. We seem to have similar tastes in 1911's as mine is also in 10mm.

Grips are stabilized California buckeye burl. -Tutt

Here's a really helpful page on primers from McPherson's book Metallic Cartridge Handloading. -Tutt

Sorry 6 pt Sika as well. So sorry...... Tutt

CowboyTutt

OK, but don't understand. Thank you for your consideration however. I do really appreciate it. Here's your pic. Thank you, Sincerely, -Tutt

CowboyTutt

Been down this road many years before as some have said. Doesn't make it any easier. Worst experience in my life as we were good friends. I hear you and your family. Take to heart what he taught you. I'm so sorry. Life changing event, it was for me too. Prayers sent for you and you family. So sorry....

CowboyTutt

Been wanting a 10mm Marlin on steroids for a long time now. McPherson is retired now from gunsmithing, not sure who could even make it for me now. -Tutt

CowboyTutt

I updated the front sight and added an additional "gold bar" at the top of the sight. I ordered up some various metallic paints from Testor and a brush kit that came with the kit already from Amazon. After playing around some with various colors I went with Testor's gold paint. Testor's paints are a...

CowboyTutt

I might not have read this right, but I don't think Blaine mentioned what caliber he wants it chambered for or barrel length. Please advise Old Friend. -Tutt

Somehow I missed this one with my work schedule. Sorry for that. Saying prayers now, sorry. -Tutt

Scott is a good natured goofball who does hold the record for rapid firing of the S&W 500 mag, he beat out Jerry Miculek in speed shooting the 500 Mag by just a teeny tiny little bit. That being said, he is just one of many You Tube stars who's only claim to fame is blowing stuff up at short range. ...

Would agree that Turkey shotguns are a little hit and miss, but they also have a history of making some very nice ones. Tri-Star recommendation a good one, Jeff Quinn once had good things to say about them years ago, I nearly bought one. A lot of gun manufacturers are having things made in Turkey no...

Years ago, I used to travel around to meet levergunners and other shooting people. It was always a great time. -Tutt

Thinking water jugs, wet or dry newsprint, or a wet or dry blanket in a cardboard box would also capture a bullet just fine. Some good information here. Enjoyed the read.

I got into airguns a year ago just by interest, very glad I did as was said, will make my real gun ammo go further. A Hatsan 135 QE in 30 caliber (50 lbs of cocking force for its air spring!) for $300 typically. Nice gun, 50.15 grain pellet at about 500 fps. Goes through 12 inches of ballistic gelat...

Well, I immediately got a response from Gary Reeder. It was the following: No, that isn't one of ours as there is no way we can know where to put the gold bands. You have to mark them yourself, then have someone put the gold bands in there. We don't do that. Sorry. Gary Reeder So no, I don't know wh...

I actually haven’t shot a lot in the past few years and I’m revisiting this now. Yes Sir, I have been absent also for quite some time. Things have changed a bit and some new interesting load data available now if you can find the components which for some of them, I did. Quickload the best investme...
