    416 Rigby and filler

    Once you burn up all of your stash of cordite the best option is a generous dose of something slower burning than H4350 to get a better "fill" with that case.

    Wanted Schmidt & Bender 1.5-6x42 Firedot

    Euro Optic has the 1.5-8x42 Stratos in stock. The Stratos is pricier but very close to the the same dimensions.

    Optics thoughts, Leica vs Leupold

    The only Leica products I own are rangefinding binos which I have been most satisfied with over the years with different generations of the Geovid. What I can not understand is when Leica produces a scope with nice physical dimensions in proper power range (the bottom two pictured) for most...

    Shipping large caliber ammunition

    USPS publication 52 chapter 43 pages 99-104 answers all questions about what can, and can not ship legally and by whom with USPS concerning firearms. No ammunition. The last update I am aware of is August 2017.

    Shipping a Disassembled Shotgun Question

    The first part they are describing non NFA items which everyone should know. The part about how to describe your "firearm" for a claim is not in the regulations so no way to know if that is in fact, the way to go?

    Shipping a Disassembled Shotgun Question

    I have only had to file one (thankfully) insurance claim with USPS on a damaged firearm. After initially being denied you will see a portion of the letter that accompanied the payment. Seriously, this is real.

    Help me decide: which Plains Game Bullet for my 7mm-08?

    I just checked the Hendershots site and currently A-Frames are not an option in this caliber. I am a big fan of the Swift A-Frame but their availability has been poor these last few years in many different diameters.

    Tally windage problem

    A lot of you guys will remember the Bausch & Lomb Balvar scope that had no adjustments. I use one of these along with an old school bore sighter on any type of base or ring that has adjustment. Proper shims allow it to be mounted in 26mm or 30mm rings. Once this scope is aligned with the...

    Wanted 2-12 Leopold

    The physical dimensions and the magnification range of that scope make it one of the best all around models Leupold has ever made. If Leupold would take the VX-6HD 2-12x42 and put some standard capped turrets and get rid of the golden bling that would be a winner.

    Wanted Norma 257 Roberts Factory Loaded Ammunition

    I have some Norma 6mm that I could neck up to .257 and that way I can claim that I bought it just for that purpose and maybe no one would think I am the kind of guy that owns a rifle chambered in such a caliber.

    The back story on this is that a good friend has recently acquired a beautiful little rifle in 257AI. The intention was to run some factory stuff through it and load the fire formed brass. I am a fan of Norma brass but I can't remember seeing it sold as a component. I have some Winchester ammo...

    Swarovski Z3 3-9x36 L Plex

    This model Zeiss has 4 inches of eye relief which along with its body length is very forgiving in a lot of mounting situations. The crosshairs on the Zeiss plex are heavier than the Swarovski which is an advantage in my opinion. Depends on your application.

    Let’s play a game, shall we

    Back in the days of cap and ball revolvers this was used to force air through the nipples to push black powder out of the chamber after pulling the ball. The part that you squeeze is made of leather. May have been common at one time but this is the only one I have ever seen.
