      if you were building a 6" 1911 what caliber would you chose?

      I would vote for the 460 Roland. A 45 caliber with the energy of the 44 magnum, but that's just me.

      243 winchester question

      I will not buy any more reloads from anyone. The person that reloaded the 243 for me had loaded several thousand pistol and a couple thousand rifle rounds for me prior to this and I never had any problems with any of them. I learned my lesson and bought my own set up to reload pistol and rifle...

      243 winchester question

      I recently bought some 243win reloads. After shooting several of them 1 of them had a louder report and recoil(round overcharged). The case from that round locked the bolt up(the bolt action would not move). After getting the gun back from the gunsmith it's all good. My question is should I...

      I am looking to get a vibrating tumbler to run my finished rounds through. To clean the case lube and any bullet lube off of the bullet itself before I store them. My question is are the Frankfort Arsenal tumblers reliable,durable and do they work well? THANKS FOR THE HELPFUL INFO, MATT

      800x for 44mag?

      I found an 8lb jug of 800x that I found at a lgs. There are some loads in my lyman book for 44mag. Does anyone have any experience with this powder. How clean does it burn? How does it meter in a Dillon 550b, is it consistent? Any other info would be appreciated. Looking at the book I know I...

      460 Rowland

      Was curious does anyone carry a 1911 in the 460 Rowland. I am a revolver guy for the most part, but this cartridge has me thinking. The cartridge has the energy of a 44mag but with the added capacity and the ability for a quicker reload. If you do carry,or shoot this cartridge what are the pro's...

      What about the Ruger 77/44

      I have the camo stainless version. I have to agree with Hopper the recoil is quite heavy (I am 6'3" & 260) and after 6 or so shots my shoulder had enough. On the plus side after putting a slip on after market recoil pad on it is great to shoot. It is accurate I am working on some different loads...

      I ordered the model 69 on Tuesday January 7th from sandburr gun ranch. I was hoping to get one asap but got the call today Thursday the 9th that Smith&wesson already has the gun on backorder. So if your wanting one of the 69's you might want to get one ordered now. Matt
