Whatever it is that you choose to carry in Bear Country (gun = good, bear spray = not so much) practice drawing it often. When IT happens, it happens very fast. You won't have to worry about displaying teeth marks. You'll have other problems.

If I ever needed an incentive to loose weight it is Appendix Carry!!!:oops::rolleyes:

Worked for a bullet casting company for a number of years. Everything said in the article is true and very important. Our greatest danger was the smelting of scrap lead that may have moisture trapped in it. A few drops of water can cause an explosion of molten lead that goes everywhere. The...

Another point to consider is the fact that the wonderful factory "personal defense ammo" is gone from the shelves in most stores. Another reason to reload.

A 500 Smith & Wesson when loaded with reasonable velocity loads and a 400 grain bullet. In the mountains you'll never get a followup shot otherwise.

Upgraded my 550b to a 550c. WOW! Smother running machine. The only downside is you have to go to Youtube to watch a video on how to make the conversion properly.

Been rollin my own for many years. Not because it might save some $$$. It's all part of the hobby. Shooting, reloading pistol, rifle, shotgun, ballistic calculations, casting your own bullets. An incredible amount of information and skill can be gained. Especially the skill of stocking up...

"Pull the trigger to release the FIRING PIN" (ON A GLOCK?).

Excellent overview of two legendary gun designers. If I'm not mistaken, Pederson designed the Remington model 51. A successful semi-auto that was dependable and quite accurate. Too bad Remington couldn't remake one that was as reliable.

I have a couple of firearms in this caliber, lever action model '89 and a 4" Smith & Wesson. Handguns in this caliber are best used with reduced loads and still get good penetration. Penetration in the rifle is incredible with full factory loads. I've sold most of my other "boomers" because...

Thanks for the clarification. I guess it's just another attempt at selling uppers with "magic" cartridges. I'm an old timer who will stick with what works - 7.62X51.

Got a 9" barrel from Lone Wolf for my Glock 20. Added about 100 fps to lead bullet loads.

Not according to Hornady and the 6mm ARC.
