I have never looked at the 45 super and the ballistics. I’ve always liked the magnum handguns. 45acp has never been a cartridge I was interested in really don’t know why. I love the 1911 platform and the 10mm cartridge so when I bought my RI I wanted to be able to tinker with it and I knew if I...

The 460 Rowland would be an awesome cartridge form the 1911. Barrel would probably hand to be fitted and stiffer main spring. Supposed to give close to 44 magnum velocities out of a 5” barrel.

I got a really good deal in my Henry. I had built a 556 pistol and had built I had maybe $400 in it and when the last AR craze was going on I traded it for the Henry 45/70. Guy said he had shot less that a box of cartridges through it. I’ve got it set up as a guide gun with a skinner rail and...

I have always liked SA pistols way more than DA. Absolute favorite handgun is my Ruger Super Blackhawk in 44 magnum made in 1979 with 98% bluing that can be loaded to light loads wiich I never do. And my Ruger Super Wrangler in 22LR/22 magnum is my second. I also have a Ruger Wrangler in 22lr...

I totally agree. I have a 5 year old granddaughter a 5 month old grandson another grandson on the way and my daughter in law is pregnant and my guess is it’s a girl. I want a lot of grandbabies but not all at the same time lol. My granddaughter and grandson were both born in February and it’s...

😂 primers are coming down and getting to the point in going to stock back up. My go to primer has always been CCI. In need SP, LPM, LR, and LP and all the Large primers are still 80-90$/1000. I probably have more powder than I will ever use but I would like to have some more 45/70 powder but I...

I used to buy from Everglades quite a bit I still have projectiles but not enough primers to load them. I used to keep 5000 primers for everything I loaded. I loaded up every piece of brass I had and used up all my primers and then they went to $100/1000 and I said I’m good until they come down...

With the price of primers /1000 and the price of 9 and 556 coming down I don’t reload them anymore. I have a few stacked up.

I’m so very sorry for you losing your sons. I lost my first grandson and sat there and cried like a baby while holding him. Hope time has helped heal the hole left in your heart. That was over 20 years ago for me and I still have his toys I placed on his grave. I still get them out from time to...

I ordered 150 pounds of lead I use for casting 10mm, 44 magnum and 45/70. I had to go pick them up from my local post office they wouldn’t deliver them no 2 boxes at 75 pounds each I really don’t blame them I took my son and made him care them lol. Have never been tested and I’ve handled tens...

I wish y’all luck and hope she kills the biggest buck in the state. When my son was 4 he told me one Saturday he want to go bear hunting. I ask him which gun he was going to use he said mine Daddy. Which was a Chipmunk. We when bear hunting for about 2 hours. No bear but him being 4 he had the...

Thanks everyone for the prayers. The last back surgery I was getting pain meds every hour and a half. Dilatid the hour and a half oxycodone. Not looking forward to this surgery but I am looking forward to the relief I’ll get. Surgery pain is bad but temporary.

They have a ham radio event each year so hams can make contact with their amateur radio station. A few years ago when I made my first contact with them during the event the original code talkers grandsons were talking on the radio. They wasn’t very many stations trying to make a contact if it...

Yeah I’m experiencing all the things listed except not being able to empty my bladder. I’ve had a MRI and now CT scan which is all he needs to make the decision for what he needs to do. If one Fusion is lol I need that’s what I want him to do rather than going in and having to remove and replace...

Yeah my surgeon is aware of what’s going on and the CT will help him determine how many fusions he needs to do. Appointment Monday with my pcp for an EKG and blood to clear me for the surgery.

Yeah I’m fused from L-2 L-3 all the way to S-1. The only problems with fusions is it puts more pressure on the vertebra above it.

Thanks for the prayers I’ll take all them I can get. Monstrum Tactical is a cheaper alternative to optics like Vortex used to be. I own 7-8 of their optics with my astigmatism going to a more expensive red dot optic does nothing to benefit me. I have LPVO 1x6x30 I think is the power mounted on...

I really understand what she is going through and it sucks. I have always gotten good results with the past back surgeries I’ve had. I went almost 15 years in between surgeries but I spent the last 5 years in a lot of pain. I’m 65 in decent shape and better than average health. I try to stay as...

Last trip to the range was to try out the Herrington Arms HellCat comp I installed and to set the Monstrum Tactical ECR optic. The ECR is their fully enclosed red dot optic. I have several of their optic on handguns and LPVO on long guns and I have never had a problem with them. I also have...
