That is the one that I ordered. If there is one long screw that goes from one side to the other. Shoudn't one side of the cap be threaded ? Also what kind of a hanger is on the barrel to secure it? I have the endcap with the tenon. But my forearm wood is for the post 64. It just seemed like a lot ex...

I like the lyman they are a little slimer than the williams. I don't notice a problem with my hand touching the sight , but you will notice it's there. I use a gold bead sight. But a post sight with a white line down works good in low light. Any front sight you buy , you have to do a little filing t...

Difference between pre 64 and post 64 forearm cap?
I'm trying to put together an octagon barrel post 64 rifle. I picked up a forearm end cap at a gun show and it didn't fit ,seemed to small. I ordered a post 64 after market forearm cap from numrich and it is identical to the one I already have. I've been looking at pictures and it seems the post 64 ...

Junkbug, It's the Williams fool proof that works. The lyman 66WB won't get low enough with out the windage adjustment screwhead hitting the receiver. The fool proof is wider and clears the receiver on the non mounting side. If the adjustment screw head wasn't so big on the Lyman it would work. Trust...

Finish options for 94 receivers?
I have a 1974 vintage 94 receiver I want to refinish. I tried cold blue on one a couple years ago and it didn't hold up. I stopped by Lauer custom weaponry to check out Duracoat. Now Steve wasn't in but the gentleman there said it goes on as a pretty thick coat. He said more than 1mm thick. So I don...

It's hard to keep a gunshop open selling guns alone. The best small town gunshops are in the hardware stores. They have enough overhead to keep the guns around between hunting seasons. Also the big box stores are different based on the local manager. The Gander Mountain by me has outrages prices on ...

If you reload don't use the 180 grain Remington round nose. My gun doesn't have a very long throat . The 180 's would shoot awsome , but that was because they were contacting the rifling.

NOT OT - not controversial- Marlin OAL -33 Win ?
I was reading about the 33 Winchester. I was wondering if a Marlin 45-70 could be converted to this. The OAL of 33 win is 2.795 and 45 -70 is 2.550 inches.
So the question is what is the maximun length cartridge the Marlin action can handle ? Or is this cartridge only good in the 1886 or 1895 win?

Iceman is the crimp groove in the right spot on the 200 grain hornadys? I thought the crimp groove on the 200 grains was set up for the 35 rem. Anyway the 356 will have more range than the 35 rem and 375 win. I've clocked my 356 at 2400fps with 200 grain. Not sure what the 375 will do with a 200 gra...
