Just reading the fine print scares me off

veeman

I've read is a couple places that Buffalo Rifle is discontinued, but I don't know for sure. Haven't seen it advertised for quite some time. Shame, I really like it, use it alot.

veeman

I bought a NIB Buffalo Bill Rifle from my cousin who had it for 40+ years in his safe. He got it from his FIL who owned a Gambles store back in the 60's-early 70's and it never sold. I had tried to buy it for years, and/or get him to take it out shooting, but he said it would ruin the collector valu...

I've left places for lack of a waiter. Waiting more that 20 minutes for a waiter in unacceptable.

In the magazine and something in the mail, didn't make it past the trash can.

Get yourself a shotgun converted leather butt cover. Adds an inch of LOP (which I needed anyway) and makes shooting much more comfortable. https://gunstockcover.com/ My Browning 1886's https://uniim1.shutterfly.com/render/00-Dhr2tlvawMSNFX4TrMAMCKr_1AnQ3pv5Eb7vbRPURMq67pPLNY9a90Z0nCSXXubCUnDnu4gHHWp...

So I gather that these loads should NOT be used in a Colt? Asking for a friend!

veeman

I love reading Snooky's book, he would have made a great gun writer. Thing I notice about his loads is that they are usually on the hot side. I don't see a need to have a load so hot as to go through a moose and several tree's behind it, that is just too punishing on the shoulder and the energy is g...

veeman

Congratulations!! Fine looking stags on your Blackhawk too!

veeman

Sweet! Love my 76's. T-B 50-95, 45-60, 45-75

veeman

I've never even tried to figger what reloading costs or if it saves money. I do it because I enjoy doing it, it's my hobby. That and the shooting. I probably have over 50 different boxes of test loads in over a dozen calibers in my cabinet, with matching targets made up for each load. No doubt I spe...

Both of my 1886's are the Browning version from the 80's. I too needed more LOP and got leather butt covers with the shotgun conversion, which is nothing more than some leather strips sewn into the crescent. I purchased these from https://gunstockcover.com/ I like theme so well I got them for all of...

Yes, I know. Still, Universal is no more.

veeman

I have read several times and places that Universal Clays is also discontinued.

In Old Henry, old Billy the Kid comes out of his house with a Winchester 94 ANGLE EJECT. Setting is in 1906!

Thank you! I love stags.

Got my order delivered yesterday, 1/26.

The 76 receiver is not long enough for the 45/70, so they simply shortened it to a bottle neck round. Bullets much heavier than 375 grains don't stabilize well and will keyhole. A 45/75 with a full case of FF Black Powder is nothing to sneeze at to be sure. It will kill anything on this continent ju...

veeman

Veeman, I have one of those Chief Crazy Horse Rifles, that I purchased back a 2003 and have never worked up a cast load for it. I tried the Cast Performance.378 with fair accuracy using Blue Dot back then and it had been in the safe ever since. Would you mind sharing what you use? Thanks, JBowen Wh...

veeman

I have 2, an 1897 made SRC that was rebarreled way back, and a Chief Crazy Horse that I shoot regularly. https://uniim1.shutterfly.com/render/00-Dhr2tlvawMSNFX4TrMAMCKr_1AnQ3pv5Eb7vbRPURMru3vVS7cQGofGeLlpjtQcO?cn=THISLIFE&res=medium&ts=1558964746 https://uniim1.shutterfly.com/render/00-Dhr2t...

veeman

I second that!

veeman

Just a little.

veeman

Pick one.

veeman

When I 1st started out in CAS, I used GD in 44-40. Got quite a few comments on how I was hitting the targets a bit too hard. I don't recall what the load was but it was accurate.

veeman

I'd like to see what it would do at 100 yards, not 10. That would be more realistic, hunting wise.

veeman

I shoot 350 grain bullets in both my 50/95 and 45/75, Barnes in the .50 and Berry's in the .45. If it could take a griz in the 1800's, it can do it now. Bears aren't any tougher. I cast bullets for both and are the main bullets for both. Even the 45/60 like the 350 grainers.

veeman

I've always preferred the 5.5", but my "Super 41" is a joy to shoot. My only shorty. https://uniim1.shutterfly.com/render/00-Dhr2tlvawMSNFX4TrMAMCKr_1AnQ3pv5Eb7vbRPURMpR7TUC4G6YcSexuXfzhDki?cn=THISLIFE&res=medium&ts=1576370393 https://uniim1.shutterfly.com/render/00-Dhr2tlvawM...

Mine also has the extra ACP cylinder, sometime shoot the Cowboy Special brass in it.

veeman

Last one, 1876 45/75 and Colt 44-40

veeman

Couple dash calibers, 1894 src, made in 1987, 38-55, and a Remington 44-40

veeman

Couple of 44/40's

veeman

Browning 1886 45/70 and OM Ruger Blackhawk 45 Colt

veeman

Yeah, it's a video still. The rest of the video kinda got R rated cuz I had a feeding issue. But it was still great fun!

veeman

Can't hardly beat a full load of Goex FF! Uberti 76 Presidio 50/95.

veeman

In Illinois they call them gun shows, but they are mostly Knife shows, and gun parts shows. very little in the way of reloading stuff.

veeman

Got a pair of these Browning Winchester 1886's, if these count, made in Miroku Factory, no safety's, just your brain, as God intended. Fine shooters. https://uniim1.shutterfly.com/render/00-Dhr2tlvawMSNFX4TrMAMCKr_1AnQ3pv5Eb7vbRPURMq67pPLNY9a90Z0nCSXXubCUnDnu4gHHWpfyYq5WwzmNg?cn=THISLIFE&res=med...

Pretty sure they didn't come out till mid to late 80's

veeman

veeman

I love my Browning's!

veeman

I like his video's, but I would like to see the results at 100 yards rather than 10 yard.

veeman

Yep, and still taking the same gal home for 29 years.

veeman

I put a dab of blaze orange finger nail polish on my front sights, works wonderful with the ghost ring rear.

veeman

Excellent. I've toyed with the idea of getting one in 357 just to have bored out to 38/40.

veeman

I don't like that ring, serves no purpose that I know of, at least not in modern times. I don't know yet how it's attached, but it will soon be unattached.

veeman

To keep it alive, just got this home today, Uberti Remington 1890, 45 Colt.
