Shooting Stars firearms in New Middleton, Ohio has alot of 16ga. in stock. Federal, Winchester, Remington and others. Kenny Graft is a 16ga. fan and keeps a good selection.

The local WalMarts here have 16 and 28 ga.

I remember Mel Tappan and his articles in Guns and Ammo as well as his books. Will get the 18" with a fiber optic front sight and scout scope mount. My main concern was how well the straight walled cartridge fed in the action. Experience with the 92 action with .357 or .44 Mag has revealed feed...

Appreciate the responses. Going to kick it around some, but will probably go for it.

Kicking around ordering one. $600.00 non refundable deposit and 5-6 month build time. Hear of any issues with delivery or shipping? Customer service?

I have a 8 3/8" and 4" 500 S&W revolvers and the dies and bullet molds, so ammunition isn't a problem.

Opinions?

Took advantage of the 60 degree sunny weather in NE Ohio/NW Pennsylvania to head out to 1 of the 2 gun clubs I belong to. I set up my Oehler 35P chronograph and shot at the 50 yd. target backstop. The Good- Carbine shot point of aim at 50yds. with the fine carbine sights. Functioned fine and shot we...

Both of my clubs are in Western PA. One completely closed everything until last week. The other stayed open for members only, no guests. Going to head out later this week for some range time. Flu furlough is over 5/18.

Ordered a wide variety of cast bullets from: https://mattsbullets.com/ http://www.beartoothbullets.com/index.htm https://www.montanabulletworks.com/ Going to try many different styles and weights then buy the mould. Bought some jacketed bullets also and different powders. Bob gave me his larger 3 ri...

Thanks for the reply's. My close friend has a .45-70 Marlin 1895 from 1972, so he has offered alot of information. I have been online getting items I need to load. Bought RCBS 3 die set and Lee collet FCD, brass and bullets locally. Going to see Mike at MasterCast in Enon Valley, PA to get some 405g...

Been hitting the local shops since my flu furlough. Of the three guns I bought the last two days, I got a Browning 1886 45-70 SRC. I bought it for the fact it does not have the rebounding hammer and tang safety. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YaZw0DV0lF4 This video is what I have. According to the ...

Great shooting!

Paid too much for my Winchester Model 88 .308 Win., made in 1969. Shoots 1 1/2" at 100 yds. with M80 Malaysian machine gun ammo. Used Gunscrubber to hose out the action and sprayed FP-10 to lube without disassembly. Haven't messed with specifically working up a load for it, but I just bought an...

Mike makes excellent machine cast bullets. Been using him when I don't have the time to cast my own.

Buy the 700 gr. 500 off of Matt, terrific quality and fair, fast shipping.

My soon to be Brother-in-Law lives in Paradise, CA. Was in Wisconsin on business when he was informed of the fire. Flew back last night and is currently at a friend's house waiting for permission to return. Was told that house and everything a complete loss. Scary how fast the fire moved.

Gregor

Just sent some via PayPal. I don't subscribe to magazines anymore and have received better information on this site anyway.

Gregor

What is a valid e-mail address for PayPal?

Gregor

Thanks for posting the ads, Steve. I have a 88 in .308 Winchester. Shoots well.

Bought a Marlin 39AS ten or so years ago that would not fire until I removed the lower leg of the hammer strut to eliminate the rebounding feature. Seems to be a not infrequent occurrence. The hammer would not go far enough to strike the firing pin, stopping abruptly 1/4" or so from it.

Gregor

Bought a Savage 12FV 6.5 Creedmoor for $369.99- $100.00 mail in rebate= $269.99 at Cabela's. Couldn't pass on that deal. Had to order online and ship the Avon, OH store for pick-up. First time ordering a gun from them, went smoothly.

I liked Skeeter Skelton's magazine article on the 32 H&R Magnum Single Six years ago in SHOOTING TIMES. I thought that it was a good idea. Elmer Keith also spoke well of the 32 caliber handguns. Ruger/Lipseys Single-Seven .327 Federal Magnum intrigued me as the best platform for the cartridge. T...

Larry Sidener is a regular at the "I Love My Winchester Shotguns" forum at the Shotgunworld.com website. This was shot last year and was supposed to be part of the 150th anniversary celebration for Winchester, but for some reason it wasn't finished until this year. Larry is like many of yo...

Why is your rear sight backwards?

Tycer, you were very fortunate. The next sting could produce a more severe reaction, so it's a great thing to have EpiPens on hand. I have gotten to where I react to a yellow jacket sting much more severely than I used to, but that's a different toxin than the one in honey bee stings. I started goi...

I have always been intrigued by the .44 Special bulldog revolvers by Charter Arms. I found one used with crimson trace laser grips and the bobbed hammer for $280.00 with the original box and paper work. It appeared to have been fired little. I fired my .44 Special loads I had on hand for my Ruger Bi...

http://www.gunsamerica.com/blog/ross-seyfried-lipseys-ruger-flattop-44-special-bisley-revolvers/ I was inspired to try fire lapping after reading Ross' fine article.

I sourced used hockey pucks from the local rink. Many towns have a semi- pro or college team. Kid I worked with played and got me free ones when I asked how much they were.

Thanks Model52B for the information. Myles told me he bought it from a LGS and that the rifle came from a collector that did not shoot it, supposedly. He called Rossi and was told that their firearms carry a one year warranty from date of manufacture, based on serial number. He was quoted $225 for t...

Thank's for the pictures and responses. I spent the other day at the gun club shooting it with .38 Spec. 158gr. LSWC and factory .357 Magnum loads. The beveling/throating/chamfering of the chamber is causing bulging of the case in the web area. The chamber is more egg shaped, off set to the 5 o'cloc...

A friend just bought a Rossi 92 .357 Magnum 16" BBL. I noticed that the chamber appears to have been "throated" similar to a 1911, it looks egg shaped. It does feed .38 Special 158gr. LSWC flawlessly. Has Rossi modified the chamber on newer 92's, or has someone else worked on it?

Gregor

Appears that I-80 follows it.

I replaced the factory rubber wrap around with some Herrett's cocobolo wood stocks from CDNN. They are much thinner and are bargin priced. Just bought a Ruger SR9 to keep the round count low on mt HP. Grip is even thinner than the HP and feels good.

Over in the shop smith forum they like Evapo- Rust also. A member soaked a drill chuck that looked like it was retrieved from the bottom of the ocean, it cleaned up as new. It does seem to etch the metal into to a matte gray color. Good Stuff.

I have an Oehler 35 Proof Channel with the 3 sky screens. Blasted the nylon housing for the start screen on several occasions, mainly trying to chase virgin diamonds on Redfield sight-in targets.
