So Mr Ingot, if we send you our moulds you will cast for us right?
Very impressive stock pile!

GunnyMack

First thing I'm going to do is check the barrel regulation with some slugs, then I'll get to patterning it.
Good info on the European vs American loads, thank you!
I have always found that 410's pattern much tighter then you would think. Long shot column to bore dia. But tend to have more flyers...

GunnyMack

Not sure on the 340 mag, haven't looked into it enough. But I'll look into that, thanks!

This Winchester was given to me, guy didn't remember what why or where the bolt went. I think it makes number 13 or 14 22 rifles I have, not a high priority.

GunnyMack

WMR is no slouch! More then enough gun for more then people think. Even LR will take deer-IF you hit em right. I have a 10/22 mag, put a carbon wrap barrel on it and a hogue over mould stock. My gun likes Winchester 40 gr HPs and FMJs. It doesn't like the 30 or 35 gr stuff. It is very accurate. Firs...

GunnyMack

That's a good one! I didn't see that coming!

GunnyMack

I'm not overly fond of tight chokes in field guns. I shoot skeet/ mod in my Red Label 28. Good to 35 yards with skeet- the pheasants don't usually get quite that far... especially with my Hevishot reloads! The CZ is choked IC/M so not much difference between the two guns, just a slight learning curv...

GunnyMack

Hey now that's great info to know! I have a Winchester single shot .22 that needs a bolt, forget what model it is. I did cross reference it for different model but none in stock at Numrich. I have a Savage 23B, 25-20, I'm always looking for magazines when I go to gun shows, so far I haven't found an...

GunnyMack

I think Shrapnel WINS!

GunnyMack

The Nosler BTs in the big caliber so are great deer bullets, if memory serves, under .257/85 grains are VARMINT bullets. I know someone somewhere will chime in saying they have been using such in such match bullet for years without fail. Just can't condone a match bullet for big game. Especially in ...

GunnyMack

The small gauges are FUN! My first was a Remington 1148 in 28 ga. Used it for small game.sadly I traded it off. Then I got a Hi Standard Flight King with a skeet choked barrel. 3" #5's were deadly on jumping ducks! Still have it. Then I bought a Ruger Red Label 28, I shoot my own reloads, Dillo...

GunnyMack

Match bullets tend to have very thin jackets( or used to). If I knew I could get a head shot I would feel comfortable with it but I don't think I would use that bullet for a body shot. It could blow up as a flesh wound or act like a FMJ... Nosler 60 gr partition, the GMX, Fusion or a Barnes monolith...

GunnyMack

Years ago I knew an AR7 that was ' worked' if your trigger finger was a little too heavy it would double, triple or dump the whole mag at once!

Seems to me this Henry in question probably has a bad barrel/ receiver lock up.
No doubt Henry will rectify it in no time at all!

GunnyMack

That's the copy of the AR7 that armalight made?

GunnyMack

I pulled a load from Hodgen website.
13.3 gr Lil'Gun
Winchester wad
1/2oz 7&1/2's
I loaded a box of 25, had good ignition, no bloopers. Clay birds died this morning!

GunnyMack

Thanks! Yes I shoot a 12 for Olympic trap, but I love to hunt with small gauges. This should be a bit of a learning curve for me, I've never owned a double before, let alone a double trigger gun! I tried some of my reloads this morning from my Hi Standard skeet gun, a crossing R-L about 35-40 yards ...

GunnyMack

The Governor has signed the law, but now fish & game has to accept it, that could be tomorrow or two years away... I hope it is sooner then later, I want to see that BAR hoisted up into a tree stand!

GunnyMack

Another thing that can be of assistance is to get a shallow box, do disassembly in the box, any parts that try to reach orbit hit the box and normally stay within the box. If need be also can drape a towel over the parts once a pin is started and if it's spring loaded then it hits the towel. Only pr...

GunnyMack

If Ma Deuce comes to live with you Six I'll pay you if I can shoot it! I'm not far from SE PA!

GunnyMack

ME!
I bid on a CZ Ringneck 410 and won the auction!

GunnyMack

That's what is known as a 'D'oh' moment?
When I was taking my Beretta armorers course the instructor started to explain how to NOT loose the pins and springs, of course while he was talking there were pins & springs flying all over the place!

GunnyMack

Thankful for
Brother in laws successful heart valve replacement.
Dad is over coming Myasthenia Gravis at 84 yrs old
Nieces both recently got good jobs.
My pup is a pheasant hunting fool.
I just won an auction on Gun Broker!

To all here, HAPPY THANKSGIVINGS!

GunnyMack

I believe High Density Poly Ethaline (spelling?)

GunnyMack

Sure just as soon as I get a couple hundred loaded! I started my loading career with a MEC 700, that got too time consuming trying to keep up with my Trap shooting habit, graduated to a Grabber. When I got my first 410 I converted the 700. I haven't loaded for 410 in at least 25 years! Spent couple ...

GunnyMack

I have a loader, I'm looking for pet loads.

GunnyMack

Ah-ha!!!
Got smart about it!! Just had to walk away for a bit.
They aren't perfect but they'll do!

GunnyMack

So I dusted off my MEC 700 that I converted to 410. It's been at least 25 years since I used it last. Of course I don't have the correct bushing(yet), weighed out powder charges for test loads. I go to crimp and for the life of me can't make it crimp 2&1/2"! Get on MEC site, NO EMAIL SUPPOR...

GunnyMack

Crow hunting- have not done that in a long time!
H110 & 2400 I tried in the past, think I'll try Lilgun next.
Club I hunt only allows break open guns, hence the CZ I bid on, otherwise I'd shoot my Hi-Standard.

GunnyMack

Kind of a slippery slope... I see no reason why you should give up YOUR spot. You have taken the time & put in the effort for your spot. I'd tell your sister that until you have a chance to get in the woods and have the opportunity to take a deer for yourself he can hunt that 160 acres. It's 160...

GunnyMack

That's pretty nifty!
I'm sure a handy guy could find led's online and rig something up for less then retail, of course Murphy would probably show up and cause all kinds of havoc like a wire breaking and a stray spark setting fire to powder! Might be worth the $35 !

GunnyMack

Well, that is different!
I need to mull that over a while.

GunnyMack

I have a MEC 700 that I converted years ago to 410. Can't even remember last time I loaded any... Have couple hundred empties, plenty of components just where to start.

GunnyMack

I put in a bid at Gunbroker on a CZ Ringneck 410. My Red Label 28 just seems too easy for these stocked pheasants.
Does anybody load 410's? I'd be interested in your pet loads.

GunnyMack

I too was looking at the website for a 44 when I heard the production was to stop...sad they didn't sell enough of them to continue.
I have 77/22 in 22lr, always wanted one in hornet. Then I saw they made them in 357, couldn't find one reasonably priced...

GunnyMack

Seems like every time I decide to clean up the benches I get side tracked... So it's just easier to make a hole at the press I'm going to use and load when the time comes. My SL900 is probably the best set up, just enough room for wads and the press. It sits on an old welding bench that one of my sh...

GunnyMack

My Ruger carbine(1968 vintage) shoots 300's well. Not quite as good as 240's but good enough to be minute of deer at 100 yards.

GunnyMack

My 1st gen G23 has been shot underwater. They do shoot, feed with no problems. Just gotta use FMJs, or you are gonna wreck your barrel/ gun!

GunnyMack

Though I do not have a 45 colt Henry, I do have one in 41. I am very happy with it! Henry is VERY good at customer service and you might get some answers to your questions by asking them directly. Normally the pres, Anthony, returns emails. I haven't got to trying heavy stuff in my 41 yet. But I thi...

GunnyMack

Funny thing is Hodgen site lists Lilgun for 218 Bee but not 25-20, I wonder if they don't HAVE a rifle chambered for 25-20 to develop loads...
I also have a Bee and want to try Lilgun in it too. Both use about the same load, the 25-20 should be a bit lower pressure. Also gotta work up a Hornet load!

GunnyMack

Thanks Griff!
I saw that link when I googled, but for some reason it would not open.
I have a Savage 23b, although someone cut the barrel and drooled & tapped for a side mount. It's a good shooter, 1" or better at 100 from the bench.

GunnyMack

No hate here!
Here's by black collection,
24" fluted Varmit
450 bushmaster
16" combat
AR10T

GunnyMack

Just started thinking about taking my 25-20 out to play.
Has/ does anyone have load data for Lil'Gun in 25-20?
No data on Hodgen site.
Did a little snooping on the web but couldn't find anything concrete...

GunnyMack

Where the Red Fern Grows is the worst- I only saw part of it and refuse to ever watch it again! Saw it while in college, whole dorm full of gun smith students cryin their eyes out!

GunnyMack

Local guy adopted a pit bull, dog was a fighting dog, not a good one as he was sweet as pie. One day I see the guys car parked in local coffee shop and Roscoe's nose out the window. Woman out front talking on her cell phone. I couldn't resist that chance to have a little fun! I pulled into the far s...

GunnyMack

Ya can trust a dog, but not a person. You know exactly where you stand with a dog, good or bad. Every kid needs a puppy! I must still be a kid cuz I go outta my way to meet a dog but I'll forget the owners name in minutes after. Had a Jack Russell years ago, greatest hunter I have ever known. Cats,s...

GunnyMack

Blue painted presses are the S#*? ! I started with a Square Deal, upgraded to a 550b, then bought the SL900.
I still use my RCBS single stage more then I should though!

GunnyMack

Yes and no. More space means we get more stuff, thus we always need more room!

GunnyMack

Here are my set-ups.

GunnyMack

Congrats on the baby! Are you sure you don't want to keep both for your child? Every kid needs a good gun and a puppy! A buddy of mine was given a Sharps while he was still a new born. His dad bought it at a gun show, walked in the house and his wife just about went nuts until he explained it was fo...

Wonder if they will make a double rifle for hephalump huntin...

Reminds me of the guy that made a .600 nitro TC contender, it's somewhere on YouTube.no one could hold on to it.

I see that Guiness is NOT going to award the world record for this!
