      Cow's milk.

      Been drinking fresh cow milk since I was around 10 years old, still at it for over 50+years. Tried fresh Goat's milk, here and when I was in Vietnam, I'll stick with the local cow's version.

FMJ BT, Match Grade bullets[sniper], well over a thousand+, two thousand CCI # 34 primers [US Guv-mint] on a shelf in a small box in my "gun room", an...

      Winchester Model 24 Double barrel

      Forgot a trick I learned about a long time ago to help the process along. Put pad in one of those large plastic bags [zipper kind] that are used to store foods in a freezer and drown the pad. Place bag on top of refrigerator at the very back, to allow the warm air coming off the coils to keep...

      Winchester Model 24 Double barrel

      It was WD 40, or Armor All to the best of my memory. Soak it good, leave it for 24 hrs, wipe it down good and then do it one more time.

      Winchester Model 24 Double barrel

      Bought one a few years ago, 12 ga. with F&M barrel chockes #1853 made in 1939 according to Old Guns.Net. It had been a truck gun for many years according to the owner. Lite rust all over and in the barrels, action was rusted also, pistol grip had been heavenly stained with body grease, forearm...

      What's YOUR Indy 500 memory?

      Pace car coming into the pit area at a high rate of speed and eventually takes out part of the bleachers at very end. People running away from the hit, one guy jumped pup to the very top railing holding on for his life. Year was 1971, had tickets for seats behind the pits. Saw the tires being...

      Case cleaning/polishing preference ?

      I get technical about the whole thing. 1st depends on what state the brass is in. Really nasty gets a mixture of fine sawdust [40lb. bag last for a long time] with a teaspoon of Bar Keeper's Friend. Took a while to get the right mix though. Once fired brass doesn't have to be in the tumbler very...

      223 powder questions

      From my old files: H335 was surplus Olin WC844 for full-charge loads in the .223 Remington and .308 Winchester. If you can find any of the Olin, and no 335, it's just another way.

      Primers are like snipe hunting

      So tell me, what should I ask for some CCI#400 primers? Had been using them for years, but after reading a lot of posts on the Net, switched to '450's and got some improvement in group sizes for three rifles. Got enough .223's loaded up now to last a number of years. Those 400's are taking up...

      Ammo Prices...Seem to be coming down

      Hmmm, couple of years ago just before the first[?] ammo shortage time period and long waiting lines the CMP announced that they had 20,000,000 rounds of .22LR for sale in 5000 rd. boxes that came from a warehouse somewhere. It was all gone in about 3 or 4 days, but not before I did some figuring...
