AndyC, That dredges pot in the background pics looks exactly like the spare pot that came with my turkey frier setup. And I use it for the exact same thing! I use mostly range scrap. I bought a Cabine Tree tester for hardness testing, something every caster should own IMHO And yes, casting season ha...

So many great reasons to reload. I have actually reduced the number of calibers I reload for in the last few years, I'm down to 13 now! All the good reasons are there: Saves money Get better and more accurate ammo Ammo on demand when the stores are dry and have been that way for months on end. It's ...

IMR 700x seems to be available at many places.
I load 7 different pistol calibers with it, including 38 special and 357 magnum.
It burns relatively clean and produces very good velocities.
Accuracy seems no better or worse than the HP38 or Titegroup I used before it became so scarce.

I check every piece of brass as it comes out of the tumbler. Any sign of splits or erosion - it gets tossed into the recycle box. 45 will last virtually forever, high pressure stuff like 357 or full house 44 mag - not so long. Rifle brass in a tight chamber will usually neck split first. Rifle brass...

Millions of 1911 pistols have gone to war in every climate, every weather condition and every slime and dirt infested place that exists on this earth. My 1911 goes everywhere with me, no matter what the conditions are. It will shoot wet, dry, cold, hot, clean, dirty or any combination of these. It's...

what about those rounds I have been carrying around in my truck for years?

I don't think I have ever had a round that made it more than a few months, much less a few years. I usually shoot them!

Guess they don't train for doing double taps.
Should have been one in each lung.
The blood trail would only have been 1 block long, and the morgue would have gotten the call instead of the local ER.

I do agree with you Roy, but unfortunately we do have laws on the books that we have to live by. My question is simple, is this fair for TEXAS? All who know me understand that I defend Texas first, and would love to see us once more independent of the socialist shackles of the Union. This issue was ...

Sure, let me find it......

Maybe they get around it by not selling alcohol in the casino, only in the bar. And the bar is not a registered portion of the casino? I have been gambling in those casinos for years, and have never purchased a single drink. If you are in the casino, the drinks are free. I have posed this question t...

So, for all those who teach are/were selling the UTAH license class to Texas residents, what is your opinion on the Virginia license? The ad hype is it only takes an hour to do the class on-line, requires no test and no proficiency and the background check is minimal. Do we need a Texas restriction ...

My wife and I travel to Louisiana to gamble every now and then. When we first started going, I was told I could not store my gun in the hotel safe, so I went to the security entrance at the casino entrance and asked them what the policy was on CHL in the Casino. I was told politely that I should lea...

Mythbusters episode 50. Bullets fired straight up into the air do not have enough force on falling to kill someone. If they are fired at an angle they will travel less distance and retain enough force to cause lethal injury, but no specific angle was given.

I have only ever failed one student at the range, she shot a hole in the loading table, so I took her gun away from her.
She came back a few weeks later and got some handling and skills help. She passed after re-qualifying.
