Neat little knife, perfect size for just about anything. I have the Cold Steel version in my hunting pack.

I wonder if the 7 round 66 feels heavier than the old 6 round version. My Taurus 83 is a .38 Special built on the same frame as the 6 shot 66. It is slightly larger than a K frame, closer to L frame size but still uses K frame holsters just fine. But, it is about as heavy as I would want any...

Those USA Old Timers were excellent low cost knives.

Yeah, I saw that and it looks pretty sweet. All my Taurus wheelguns have been good. The 85 I sent off was purchased used and it was accurate and reliable, just the POI didn't line up to the sights because of the barrel leaning to the right. My dealer called back and told me Taurus said the...

So awhile back I bought a used Taurus 85 that had the barrel clocked to one side. Sent it off to Taurus, thinking it would be a quick fix. Anyhow, my dealer got a message back from them saying it couldn't be fixed, and I could pick out any firearm up to $514.00 MSRP to replace it, or pay the...

I let each rifle tell me what is most accurate. Nearly always it's starting load or just a little more.

For just very occasional use, like trimming a few little twigs in a tiny subdivision yard, the 18v Makita is the best possible choice. And it uses the same batteries and chargers as all their other 18v tools. I'll never forgive Makita for sending Dolmar to the firing squad, but I do respect...

That's actually a brilliant idea!

S&W 67-2 and Excalibur Axiom in my favorite place to hang out!

I'll take one too, please!

Sierra data for the Bob. Interesting that they show the exact load I always used as most accurate, I arrived at this load before I came across this info. https://sierrabullets.com/content/load-data/rifle/257/257-roberts.pdf

According to the Hodgdon burn rate chart, H-380 sits in the middle between Reloder 15 and H-4350. Yes, I always go for accuracy and lower pressure before anything else. Hybrid 100V is a pretty slow powder, probably won't really work on that one until the H-380 runs out and then I'll see if it...

Today before work I tried 35, 35.4, 35.8, and 36 grains of H-380 with the 117 grain Sierra at 150 yards. All were quite accurate, 36 grains seems to have the same POI as my usual load of 38.5 grains H-4350. I'll try 36-37 grains next time. Also, while loading my rounds last night I discovered...

Leave piles of unorganized reloading stuff on your bench and that won't happen, I promise.
