The Hornady 240's are exactly what I loaded for my Model 94 Winchester for the elk hunt back in the day. Never connected with an elkie, but sure willing to try again.

I feel like every 22 I've owned has let me down....eventually. Everything from Ruger to Savage to an old Stevens that my grandma gave me. Every one of 'em is picky about ammo and every one of them has gone caput after a few year, so I end up having to but another, cuz the gunsmith wants to...

What I see the most at the range are striker fired pistols.

From today, 1980 is the same number of years back as 1939 was to 1980.

Can't imagine the recoil of the venerable 950 JDJ.

Luger....reminds me of the old Wildey 45 Win Mag. What an UGLY pistol. I remember when I saw it on the big screen for the first time and Charles Bronson was holding it. Almost puked.

Nobody told me that the Glock felt weird. That was my own personal experience. Besides, my instructor was carrying a Glock and touting its goodness during my class. If anything, I should've been biased TOWARD the Glock, but putting it in my hand told me otherwise. Until I held one at age 45. My...

I might've done such a thing if I'd had an intervention earlier in life. My dream would be to become an armorer for a large organization - swat, police, etc. However, I think that ship has sailed. I'll retire from where I'm at. Who knows, maybe I'll pick up a true gunsmithing education after I...

When I first started shooting, my CFP instruction carried a Glock. However, at the time, I just didn't like how it felt in my hand. I didn't like the way it pointed, so to speak. As I've gotten older and my vision has changed, I can shoot my Glock much more accurately than my XD pistols. That...

The XD hate is a little like the hate I find for certain luxury vehicles. I own 2 Infinity vehicles. They are awesome. Beautiful on the inside and out. Took an old codger for a ride a couple weeks ago and he was like, "You know, my wife and I are looking at getting a new luxury car and never...

I've owned so many XDs it ain't even funny. Got NO hate coming from me. They are an outstanding gun and platform. Love, love, love all my XD children.

I will absolutely opt for the model (3503) WITHOUT the safety. Don't like them on my guns.

The feel of this gun has made me decide that I need another 9mm to go with my XDS. It SHALL be mine. I also have Squatch-like hands and the Max 9 felt really good. Oh, and all my revolvers are Ruger and they are outstanding pistols.

#SarcasmOn: "I WOULD NEVER OWN ONE OF THOSE EVIL BLACK RIFLES. " Now Big Bro and those 3 letter orgs won't come after me. :ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO: My dream is to own the CMMG Banshee in 10mm. I WILL own it one day.

My Glock 29 brass will bonk me on the head 50%+ of the time.

Isn't it interesting to compare a BULLET manufacturer's load data to a POWDER manufacturer's load data? Sometimes they can be quite different. However, if I am using a Nosler bullet, I will almost always use the Nosler manual and use the exact specified powder. However, if I am loading a weird...

I only use WC in my revolvers. Had some jamming issues with those in certain semi-autos. SWC are a little more forgiving because of the slight taper. However, my Winchester Model 94 in 44 Mag will chew them up all day long. In a rifle, the results of a hardcast WC are fairly impressive.

Ummm.....this is a little embarrassing, but I actually read my reloading manuals in my spare time for relaxation. Even been known to take a hot bath in the depths of winter and take my Nosler manuals with me. That's some serious entertainment right there. Learning how Jim Shockey felt the first...

Right now in my 9mm I carry Barnes solid copper ammo - VORT-TX 115 grain TAC-XP's. For the 10mm I carry 180 grain Sig Sauer Elite V-Crown JHP cartridges.

Check out the Ruger Max 9 as well. I held one at the gun store today. They are 12+1 capacity. I carry the XDS 9 with Pearce grip extensions and it fits my beefy hands. The Ruger Max 9 also fits my hands VERY well, but has 5 rounds more than the XDS. Oh, and I will generally opt for the gun that...
