      If youre stupidlime me

      So the internet and all, I read that full length sizing nickel rifle brass is a bad idea cause the nickel will flake off. I tried it anyway cause it was only 100 rounds, however all it takes is one to flake off. By the time I was done my shiny brass was all scratched up. Fast forward 3 months I...

      Serving Protectors.com

      Has anyone attended their training classes? I signed up for the class in Kokomo on Jan. 13th. Was wondering about my expectations versus what’s taught in class. You know the internet and all, do I stand a better chance of going to jail if I use my reloaded ammo, hollow points or fmj. Kind of...

      AR-Kaboom

      My church security team were training Sat. and we all brought some rifles to break up the training. One of our guys had a kaboom in his ar. The magazine catch blew out the side and was hanging down due to gravity I’m assuming. I asked if it was a factory load or handload and he said all he he...

      Titegroup for Shotgun reloads

      My gawd, Red Dot must be stored with Bigfoot and unicorns, so I decided to switch brands after 40 years of reloading and stumbled upon Titegroup with loading data for shotguns. I use it for my pistols and decided to give it a try. I’ve got 5 test loads ready to go for tomorrow but before I blow...

      Clambering a rifle barrel by hand.

      I have a rifle I'm about certain has a bad chamber from my"gunsmith". I had it chambered about fifteen years ago and never really shot it much. Being deer legal now have had some trigger time and noticed incipient case head separation on my brass. I kind tried to check the headspace with tape on...

      Lady's day out at cabelas

      I went to Cabelas in Noblesville today and hit the figurative jackpot. I was celebrating my anniversary with the wife and stopped in because I don't make it down there that often. As luck would have it they had a twenty five percent off coupon for the ladies. She didn't mind looking around so...

      USPSA at Niles, things I've learned.....

      So I shot my second match at Niles today and had a few take aways. You can be be the fastest guy there but if you don't hit anything, what's the pont. The white dividing the target doesn't mean choose whichever is easiest to hit.... You have to put two in the top AND bottom. The sound of the...

      Carrying out of state for the first time...terrified

      I'm taking the family to the creation museum in KY.over spring break. I've read both Ohio and KY. Carry laws and still am a little sketchy about it. This will be my first time carrying out of state and I've imagined everything from the electric chair to life in prison and never being allowed to...

      Apex trigger install....PITA

      Just got finished installing an apex trigger on my dads sw9ve and the weight of the trigger pull still sucks in my opinion. It is better than before but still waaaay to heavy for my tastes. I tried putting a spring kit in first and see what kind of results it yielded and it was pretty negligible...

      Mauser 98 action and barrel value.

      I have searched to no end trying to find the fair market value of a large ring Mauser 98 action with a new Centurion barrel chambered in 30-06. I bought eight of these about fifteen years ago in .270 and 30-06 and am thinking about selling the last one I have. I really don't know what to ask for...

      USPSA with cast bullets

      Just about ready to dip my toes in the water and try a USPSA match. Does anyone here shoot cast bullets and if so what are the pros and cons. For me, it is way more affordable than jackets or plated and quite frankly I'm certain I won't be setting any records to start. I am a guy and competitive...

      AR failure to feed problems.

      I built my first AR over the winter and had fun doing it, but my first trip to the range wasn't what I was hoping for. It seems that the bolt doesn't travel far enough back to lock open after the last round is fired. I also had a couple of occasions where the round didn't get fed into the the...

      Armslist

      If you want some free laughs go to indiana armslist and read the sarcastic maybe a little cynical adds in the ammo section. I have always wanted to post something like that but never had the nerve. Seems like everybody is tired of the crap. One guy had 300 rounds of 855 for 100,000 or trade for...

      Pile of parts

      I am building an ar for the first time and have a pile of parts but still need a barrel. I'm leaning towards a stainless barrel from PSA but I'm hesitant because the barrel size is .935 and the few gas blocks I can find are .936 . All of the .750 barrels seem to have gas blocks in matching sizes...

      Great folks at ingo

      Been off line for a little bit because of new job and family issues. It's good to see fellow Hoosiers stepping up to the plate to foster shooting sports for the kids by way of letting loose of the coveted .22lr. There are some good folks here and I'm glad there are people still willing to...

      Can't wait for rain!

      Man the rain can't get here quick enough for me. Trying to wade through a couple feet snow all day is just misery. I don't relish the thought of flooding but I'm sick of snow already and I fear its just getting started.

      .500 Nitro Express crazy or sane.

      So I was watching Wild West Alaska and watched the dude shoot a .500 Nitro Express and it dislocated his shoulder. The worst recoil I have felt was from a .300 Win Mag. It was a Win Mod 70 featherweight and I blew the reticle up in my prized vintage Redfield 2-7. My question is has anyone ever...

      AR barrels?

      I am starting to buy parts for my first AR. I would like to shoot a variety of different bullet weights. I am leaning toward a carbine 1 in 9. Is there any appreciable difference in accuracy out to 250-300 yds vs. a 20" barrel in the same twist rate? I am looking for a rifle that is kind of a...

      Night stand gun

      For years my night stand gun is a S&W Mod 15. I keep it loaded with the first round buckshot the second a +P H.P and 3rd buckshot the remaining three are +P H.P I am blind as a bat without specs and thought it would be a little more effective with crusty eyes getting woke up etc and thinking it...
