Had around 250 sticks of old WW-Super 338 WM brass, awhile back I wanted to develop one be all end all load for my 1965 year long extractor 24 inch barreled FN Browning Medallion 338 WM, neck sized cases bumping the shoulders back 0.002 inch, cleaned primer pockets, tumbled all cases clean, ran...

LOL, same/same, I'm with you Big Bob, friends meeting her for the first time would say, Good God, congrats man, our sincere condolences ma'am ; ] It remains more than good fine Sir, all we have to be is their man, not their sister, not their pen pal buddy, not their girlfriend, not their mama...

Beautiful, and I agree, I'm ugly enough, beautiful rifles and Wife makes life much easier to navigate ; ] Must admit if you ever see a pic of Wife and i, look closely at edge of photo, good chance you'll see her walking stick and seeing eye dog, girl must be blind:cool: as a bat hanging with me.

As said, we probably can't get the powder or primers, pull a factory load, weigh powder charge, chronograph a factory load, if clocking 2150 fps with a 500gr bullet. I'd gladly dump 108grs H-4831 and adjust up or down to match factory velocities, get it all lit with FED-215's. When factory...

200 new Starline 44 Special cases FL sized, then loaded with CCI-300 large pistol primers, then flared case mouths enough to just start .429 inch improved Keith bullets that weigh 285 grains, they are heat treated 25 BHN alloy, very hard with a .350" flat meplat. Case mouths closed via a firm...

570 grains here with enough H-4350 for beautiful, temp stable trouble free regulation at 2168 fps, fillers with faster burning powders need not apply, the great 570gr Barnes TSX and Banded flat nosed solids take no prisoners. Round those out with file trimmed Jamison cases at 3.00 inch, get it...

Yes Sir, I have two, one is an old first gen Colt Trooper 4" blued steel, the other is a big blued steel N Frame pre-27 with 8-3/8ths barrel, both revolvers wear Hogue finger groove grips, their original factory wood grips live in my desk drawer. The Colt shoots 125gr XTP's at 1450 fps, the S&W...

I took 140 sticks of new old stock blue and white bagged WW brass for the 45 ACP, built some very nice +P loads for woods carry in my Glock 41 with Trijicon RMR sight and Agency Arms trigger. The bullets are heat treated from 25 BHN alloy, they're very hard, but not brittle and don't lead the...

Yours as well good Sir, many nice Braces of fine Dangerous Game rifles in this thread, who says working your tail in the dirt and living a lawful life doesn't pay off? :cool:

Bagwell 5" Damascus skinner on my belt everyday, old Case Lockhorn in front jeans pocket for general duty.

Nighthawk Firehawk double stack 38 Super, first two out are 147gr double crimp groove HST's at 1251 fps, next 16 are 164gr hard cast flat nosed gas check bullets with a .285" meplat cast from 22 BHN alloy, they clock 1200 fps. Spare 20 round mag of hard cast rides perfectly fine all day beside...

Like 'em, as a young single man working my tail off they were the first and nicest rifles I had ever purchased, 378 and 460 Magnums cured a lot of ails and wonderment in the early days LOL. Then saw some poor kid carrying around a 20 inch barreled 460 Magnum at the Tulsa Gun Show, his right arm...

Front trigger first, from day one on all my doubles, way to late in the game to be jacking with the system, V/C 577 had an articulating front trigger when I first got it, on firing that shoulder pounding beast and closing right hand grip even more to control torque staying in the gun and on the...

I have only three made for me by my old Sharps Rifle buddy Bill Bagwell, went to his place for a weekend of shooting Sharps rifles on his range, learning to cast then patch paper patch bullets, all the while being stuff full of his lovely Wife's excellent cooking, he measured me for a Damascus...
