      What gun stuff did you do today?

      Three trips to neighbor’s range. Shoot groups, go home and reload more test rounds, shoot more groups, go home and reload more of best load, sight in gun. Tried the “go to” 45 Colt Unique load of 8 gr + 8.3 gr + 8.6 gr. All shot the same…not good enough. Tried more of the most accurate of the...

      No. Open loading gate and you have to move cylinder a tiny bit, hear a click and it’s lined up to eject the empty.

      What gun stuff did you do today?

      On the Internet perusing Ruger forums reading about flat top blackhawks in 44 special (I have one) when I stumbled across that Ruger made some flat top convertables in 45 Colt/45acp. Stainless with Ruger fake ivory grips, Lipsey special. I've never owned a 45 Colt firearm. Called my FFL and she...

      Rats

      Yep.

      Rats

      We left at 2140. This one came out at 0304. Would’ve been a long wait for it. That looks like another fat one.

      Rats

      Took Kendive rat hunting. I watched through thermal to spot. He shot his PCP air rifle night vision equipped. Ken got his first two rats; big ones.

      And, if I remember correctly, your P49 was issued to a Swiss Army paymaster.

      Federal American Eagle suppressor 22lr ammo

      Fine on left. Oxidized on right. Right can only be used in a bolt gun where you have the force to fully chamber. Stage, this is a thought…we could split a case of the Federal subsonic that way we could test without as much outlay.

      Federal American Eagle suppressor 22lr ammo

      Remington subsonic can be accurate, BUT its bullets are not coated very uniform and can oxidize. Oxidation causes the exposed bullet diameter to grow causing chambering problems. Some boxes are fine…some aren’t.

      Federal American Eagle suppressor 22lr ammo

      Closest for me has been 42gr Gemtech subsonic. Very accurate IF your gun likes that lot. I have four different lots of it. If the gun likes that lot, it shoots as accurate as Wolf match target.

      Federal American Eagle suppressor 22lr ammo

      Have not bought or tried it. Did read several reviews. Good reputation for cycling in semi autos. Quiet. Clean shooting, but not as clean as CCI Clean. Supposedly made by CCI for Federal. Does not expand. More accurate than bulk floor sweeping ammo. Copper plated bullets. Less accurate than...

      Start preparing for hurricane season

      North S.R. County. 9 hours now with no power. Per the EREC web site, 10,xxx of their 12,xxx customers without power and no power has been restored. No fiber optic either. My off grid electric and batteries are working fine. Not much sun, but I’m getting 2-3 hundred watts of solar coming in. No...

      350 Legend Instant Regret

      I had problems expanding the case mouth without ruining the case mouth using a Lee set of dies. The expander would catch on the case mouth unless the case was perfectly aligned with the expander. I now expand the case mouth using a 9mm expander die with no further problems. I also run .358...

      Start preparing for hurricane season

      So I’m looking at camping stoves when it suddenly occurs to me: simply buy a $13 hot plate. I have multiple ways to generate electricity for it. So it’s not efficient, who cares as long as the desired end is met.

      Start preparing for hurricane season

      No. Appears to be freeze dried. Packages have similar instructions like open pouch, remove oxygen absorber, how much boiling water to use, how long to cook/stir, how many servings. Because several servings per pouch, I’d need to refrigerate leftovers…no problem as I can run fridge and microwave...
