Looking at the earthquake app you have had 10 quakes this morning Bill.

GunnyMack

If they could only talk to us! The British proofs lead to the question of did they re-serialize it?
That roller would be fun to take to a skeet field!

GunnyMack

Hmmm do I need more Hornet brass?
A 5.0 will get your attention.

GunnyMack

I got a 1lb bottle, liked it so much I bought an 8lb'er. My Henry 41 mag loves it, 210s at 1800+fps and 1 hole 50yd groups.
It's good in my hornet, bee, 41 , and 410 as well as the 450BM.

GunnyMack

I think you are going to like the Lilgun. I have used it in quite a few different cartridges and it gives good results. From 22 hornet to 450 bushmaster - it has as they say RANGE. About the only thing I wasn't happy with was in 28ga, not completely burned. Oh and you'll notice a bit more retained h...

GunnyMack

Yes, it's a shooter and a little lapping certainly won't hurt.

GunnyMack

True Jim but it's WAY more fun to burn it! :lol: The estate sale I bought had a 4# of red dot included, cardboard can tells you how old it is and it smelled fine, look ok but didn't burn , just spitter and sputtered. As I poured it out deeper into the can is when I noticed the color changed to a rus...

I had an itch for an Ithaca 10 years ago. Never did find one. One day I ran into a guy with a BPS 10 , like new , he offered it to me for a very low price. After trying a few different buckshot loads it has sat in the safe. I've taken it deer hunting once, shot a button buck at mere feet as it was r...

GunnyMack

Many moons ago I got a fixed power 6x that has since been on a 10/22. Been so long I forget what brand it is! Oh wait, it's a Weaver scope. It's been a reliable setup. Depending on the rifle a 1.5- 4, or a 2-7 would be my choices. Sometimes a tad bit more magnification is desirable. Granted a 4x can...

GunnyMack

I hadn't noticed that Scott!
I don't remember where this can came from , I don't even know this is any good. Guess I should pour a little out and put a match to it.

GunnyMack

Not sure which is older Scott but mine still has powder in it!

Doc you can run them in 2 separate conduits at the same depth, if you feel like ya need to separate them keep one to each side of the trench.
And if you feel like ya wanna be smart add a 3rd for future use, just cap the ends.

GunnyMack

Those still look like giant .22s

Good use of a rainy day!

GunnyMack

For a while we were shooting B&P international 24gram loads by the truck load. I noticed right off that my barrels were much warmer to the touch. In international trap it's a two shots per target so a guy could use 50 shells at a time. Anyhow one guy I shoot with had a side rib come loose. He se...

GunnyMack

5 people OR 3 Labradors!

Recently I have invested in some new reloading tools, Frankford universal seating die, and the Hornady OAL gauge. I also got the modified cases for the cartridges ( most of them anyway) I reload. Finally a chance to tinker with the OAL gauge today. Each of the modified cases is in a plastic blister ...

GunnyMack

I had to go mow this morning at the farm, figured I'd kill two birds and shoot a little after mowing. Well I mowed and brought 2 rifles to check loads , sight in anyhow when I got home there was a small , fairly heavy package in the mailbox. Hmmm what did I order that I don't remember about? The USP...

GunnyMack

Is the choke still stuck? Try sticking it muzzle down into a container and soak it in acetone. If it's just stuck from plastic wad build up it should loosen up. But if it's over torqued you are screwed. If you can't remove a choke tube with your fingers it's too tight! And always lube the threads! ...

GunnyMack

GRRRRRRRR! Let's see, today is what, Wednesday? Still no truck but the dealer called me about 130 to tell me I have a flat tire. Ok now I'm getting hot under the collar. What's wrong with the tire? It's flat, has it been leaking? No if it was I would have fixed it! Well you should replace it. No, YO...

GunnyMack

Another thought to the shim, make it from brass or stainless steel and celebrate it . That thin line of brass would stand out against a nice deep blue. Probably not for everyone but if you are strapped for funds then it's an inexpensive fix that will get you shooting!

GunnyMack

Yup, has to be set back enough to come almost a full turn to index the top flat on top. Like PatC said you have to chase the shank, extractor cuts and head space.

GunnyMack

With Mike's recent passing that video needs to be found in remembrance.
Long barrels certainly do point better. I loved the SBH 44 I had, it was a 7¹/².

GunnyMack

That'll work just fine Jim! Nicely done.
I didn't expect your 480 to be a long barreled smoke wagon, I envisioned as a short gun, 5.5 at the most. Must be tough clearing leather!

GunnyMack

Depends on what you are trying to clean,, old WD40 VARNISH cleans easily with mineral spirits.
The parts cleaner tanks at school were great for dirty guns, the pump really let you move the crud.

Dry lube gets the nod here.

Bill, Docs post about 45lc v 45acp v 410 slug has a yellow melon give its life for good video, ya might not want to watch!

GunnyMack

The conspiracy theorist in me now asks why this 20 yr old was shot dead? 150 yards away isn't that difficult a distance to cover to have a stand off and try to take him alive. I know , taking them alive is not top of the list after shots are fired. Who paid him? Who trained him? Foreign agent or jus...

GunnyMack

Fact is that all law enforcement dropped the ball by not keeping a larger perimeter. 150 yards!? A lot of us shoot rimfires to that or more. Should have been 500 or even a 1000 yd perimeter. Why no helicopters? Too much noise for an outside event. There should have been LE at the building where the ...

Reporter just asked Biden ' do you think this was an assassination attempt'
Talk about stupid!

GunnyMack

He walked off the stage, he told secret service to get his shoes, statement from local hospital is he is fine.

Personally I don't like the man but the fact is he was running the country better than anyone since 1984.

His personal detail is probably going to get a nice bonus from the family!

GunnyMack

Yep, hit in the ear.
At his first reaction I was thinking yellow jackets were buzzing him then I heard the reports.
If I read lips right I believe he was chanting F U .

GunnyMack

Possible shots fired at Trump rally in PA!
ITS possible he was hit.
Secret service piled on top of him and took him away.
I'm sure he is wearing a vest .

GunnyMack

They must be from an Ivy League school.

GunnyMack

Small punch and tap the fiber optic pipe out, mix a little JB WELD and fill the rear ( facing the stock) then profile and paint black.
Or
Remove the pipe and find a brass rod that fits.
Or
Find a site base and replace it completely.

GunnyMack

Not far from here is a buffalo farm, you can go gawk at them and buy meat as well. Seems like every summer some nitwit with a camera climbs the 8' fence and gets pulverized. Darwin was right.

GunnyMack

I know what cosmetic damage my truck has and I'm going to go over it before I drive off for sure. Actually the service guy and I did a walk around before doing anything else.

GunnyMack

After I had that bear hanging around I decide to dig my 870 out of the safe, stick the slug barrel on and stoke it with rubber buckshot. Then where to store it? Ahh yes a gun magnet! I mistakenly ordered a 75 lbs magnet, got lost then refound in transit. So I mounted the magnet under the shelf on th...

GunnyMack

That has been the million dollar question since it was released!
Seems like there was a ton of hype about it that has since become crickets. Kinda like the 327 Federal.
Nothing wrong with the 32's , just have to be one of the cult to appreciate it I guess.

GunnyMack

Yeah Bill, the sharks go for cantaloupe, honeydew, apples, pears, peaches, well you get it... they'll eat anything! I've just come to realize they aren't just kitchen sharks but they are tiger sharks - ya know eat anything and keep on going in search of the next meal! :lol: Although, Sage isn't craz...

A month ago I had an appointment to have 4 recalls done on my truck. I waited for it. They could only do 3 at the time. The last was going to take a day at least. So I had to reschedule with the use of a loaner to today. Get to the dealership and I'm told that they would do their best to have it bac...

GunnyMack

I know 3 labradors that absolutely love watermelon and they don't care what color it is! :lol: As you are cutting one up the kitchen sharks begin to drool causing puddles on the floor. Parker is the worst drooler, just flows like water downhill. I try every year to grow watermelons. Normally it's fu...

I blame all the misinformation on President Clinton. When he was President he had a program giving computers to those who could not afford one. He started with the group of people who were not allowed to use pens or pencils but were given crayons instead. They became the experts who post about ever...

My 70s vintage 870 I got second hand with both a 28" modified choke and 20" slug barrel with I/C choke. One of the longest deer kills was with that iron sited barrel. 127 paces through the heart. To answer your question, I don't think Remington made their slug barrel with anything other th...

We worked for some folks years ago that had dairy cattle. She was a rough woman but she had a sweet heart. Well one of the cows had complications calving and died. The woman saved the calf and literally was the only momma he knew. That calf grew to enormous proportions with a Labrador puppy personal...

I was gonna say I think GK and Nath would probably be on our side!

GunnyMack

I never bothered to wring out the costs of rifle or pistol. However, when I was shooting a ton of trap loads I could put a box of 12ga out for about 2 bucks . Of course that was when you could buy shot for $9 a bag, wads were almost free and buying cases of primers, 12lb kegs of powder. Boy I miss t...

GunnyMack

You will find the bushmaster easy to load for, I've tried almost all the powders suitable and all have delivered very good accuracy with 250gr bullets, XTP and the Hornady tipped. I'd like to try some 300's but it's not that big of a priority.

GunnyMack

Herr Diesel died penniless. Some say he jumped ship committing suicide. His body found on a French beach where a couple people rifled through his belongings and left him there to rot. He couldn't sell his invention that ran on peanut oil !
