      Ruger Alaskan 454 Casull

      I can only imagine the punishment that would do with full-power magnum bear loads. I mean, better to abuse your meat-beater than be killed by a bear for sure. When I was younger, I loved shooting stuff that punished me. These days, I'm less of a masochist.

      Get your Cowboy on

      Good question. What site is that?

      If you wanted to, how would you load

      undersizing a bullet would cause an improper gas seal when fired, which might lead to failures to eject or failure to feed, much like an underpowered load would. At least undersizing it enough that it doesn't engage the rifling and spin. A hollow projectile that would deform in flight MIGHT...

      Rio Bravo Tactical .22 $311

      I got one of my kids the wood-stock Rio Bravo a few years ago. It was alright, a minute of can kinda gun. Fun to plink with, but you weren't gonna win any accuracy competitions. Would jam occasionally, especially with shorts, but I will say that it did NOT have light strikes. It left a nice...

      A little justice

      Bullet terminology has changed.

      I can attest to .357 loads being a lot softer than they were a few decades ago. Last time we were going through the gun safe trying to find a set of grips we came across half a box of ammo from when he was a cop carrying a .357 mag. Advertised velocity of a 158gr JHP was almost 1600fps...

      Oh. WTH. NO!!!!!!

      I have fond memories of having an old scout 2, taking it through the woods and mud. It didn't go anywhere fast, but it went damn near anywhere. Only had a four banger engine, but that thing was bulletproof. Looked like someone took a V8 and chopped it in half.

      Selling whiskey online

      I like the barrel proof bourbons, the flavor profiles are usually so much better than the lower proof bourbons, and they're great over a big ice cube, as the ice melts the flavors change and it doesn't get so watered down like the 80-90 proof ones. That being said, a 90-101 proof is just an...

      Selling whiskey online

      Eagle rare is my go to Bourbon, usually at around $45/bottle. Downside is it's allocated just like Blanton's is, making it hard to find. Hell, even regular buffalo trace is good and only $25-30 but hard to find. I agree that Blanton's isn't worth the secondary market prices, but it does make one...

      Selling whiskey online

      There's a pretty healthy secondary market for Blanton's and other Buffalo Trace allocated runs. I got my last bottle for $80, but that was after being on a waiting list for 18 months to get it. I got another bottle a month before for father's day from my oldest, he paid upwards of $120 for...

      I like Blanton's. How much are you wanting per bottle?

      Low recoil hunting recommendations

      It's been a long time, but I've shot a 357 lever gun with full magnum loads in the past, and the recoil was pretty timid. Granted, it was also a relatively heavy rifle with octagon barrel. It's a round I already load for which is also a nice draw. Lots of components on hand. A#9 is something I...

      Low recoil hunting recommendations

      I was in one for 12 weeks 24/7, even attempting sleep in the damned thing. I do alright in day to day activities as long as I keep my head in a more neutral position. I had to learn and practice a different stance for pistol shooting, no more modified weaver to deal with cross eye dominance, now...

      So, my AR exploded today…

      https://www.freedommunitions.com/safety-center Seems they've ran into this in the past. I'd contact Freedom Munitions. I doubt they'll replace your firearm, but maybe they'll add that lot number to their list to help others.
