      New to Reloading

      In this day and age all the major brands make great reloading equipment. If you want to save money start out with a Lee single stage. I would recommend a single stage press for both rifle and pistol loads at first. You can branch out into progressive presses down the line.

      Removing Red Loctite...my idea actually worked.

      Red Loctite I've used the soldering trick for red Loctite in the past. It takes around 15 minutes of holding the tip of the iron against the screw/bolt before enough heat is generated to break the bond. Blue Loctite should break without heat for a torx or hex head but if its a straight...

      Trumps Bump Stock Ban going into effect, what's your 2 cents.

      Another case of overreaction to the acts of one crazed individual. It's just like Scott's reaction to the Parkland shooting, raise the age to 21 and a long waiting period. The Liberal South and Central Florida (Lawmakers?) are introducing all kinds of bills to the Florida House and Senate to...

      Shooting Low Left

      Low left grouping No matter what eye is dominant it will over power the nondominant eye and the sight picture will be correct. Low left is strictly jerking the trigger. Try giving it a smooth non hurried push back until the gun discharges. Dry firing is a great training tool. If all else...

      Athlon optics scope??

      I have 2 Athlon's that I purchased via the internet and have no complaints about either one. They have sharp clear glass and their elevation and windage adjustments are precise.

      What is your Favorite Alternative News Site?

      Best News station that I watch Agree that One America News is the most unbiased reporting institutions on Television. Reporters strictly tell you the news without their interpretation of what your seeing. Mainstream media will always tilt a story to their political point of view.

      Lugar WWII

      Need to verify serialized parts to judge value Only serial number (or last 2 numbers) is the 53 on the Toggle. An appraisal would require seeing if all serialized parts end in 53, especially the cover plate on the left side of the pistol. The Nazi Swastikas on the grips devalue the gun for...

      Bump Stocks are now banned

      I'm not in favor of the government, or state for that matter, stepping into the banning of "Bump Stocks" strictly due to the act of one crazed person.

      44 Special/Magnum case reloading It's a trial and error guessing game when it comes to light loads for all handgun cartridges. I load for 45ACP Bullseye competition and have experimented with different bullet and powder weights for years. I've settled on 200 grain lead semi wadcutters with...

      1000 yard rifle

      If your going to shoot numerous rounds I would back off the 300 WinMag. Look for a soft recoil round such as the 6.5 Grendel, 6.5x47 Laupa, or 6.5 Creedmoor. Other rounds that completers use at 1000 are the 243 Win and 6mm Creedmoor. Hell the new 224 Valkyrie with heavy .224 match bullets is...
