GP100man, Will do. Thank you again for your time. Now all I gotta do is get some primers and powder without having to refinance the home.

GP100man, Thank you for the reply. My SP is a 357 Magnum. One last question: You also mentioned that you cut 5 cards (gas checks) from a cereal box. How many of these do you use over the powder and over the shot? Thanks again for taking the time to share your experience. Retsoff

GP100man, When you use a 357 Maximum case to reload shotshells for a 357 magnum, do you use small pistol primers or small rifle primers? Normally, the 357 Maximum case takes small rifle primers but I would think you could use small pistol primers for the shotshell reloads, due to reduced...

I should've learned my lesson. Years ago, I had a SP101 which had a spring go flying after I removed the trigger group and then pulled the trigger. I had to send it off to Ruger, who promptly fixed it and sent it back to me along with a note as to why I shouldn't do this. I think my Ruger...

I recently sent to Ruger for repair a GP100 that was 23 years old (per the SN) and that I had bought used. The last time I was cleaning it, I took out the trigger group and the cylinder latch came loose. In an attempt to get it back in, I then pulled the trigger (don't know what I was thinking)...

Your Dad got one heck of a good deal. Congratulations. I have one of the older models that's tube fed and it's fun to shoot. With the ammo it likes (Winchester Partition Gold) mine is pretty accurate too.

I had ordered from GP100man his trigger group removal tool for certain Ruger revolvers. Today it arrived (that was fast shipping) and I tried it on my Ruger GP-100. It worked so well that I actually installed and then removed the trigger group several times for the sheer fun of it. Prior to...

I've used both GB & AA to buy a few guns. Even though GB has many more firearms of all types than AA, I've actually bought more from AA. AA just seems to have the right weapon at the right price for me when I'm in the market. What I like about both of them is the feedback feature. I don't do...

That buck is awesome! I also am a big fan of the 35 caliber, having owned a BLR in 358 Win and currently owning a Ruger in 350 Mag. One thing that has puzzled me is that the above-stated reloading data, as well as other comments I've read on different forums, indicate that the Nosler 225...

Well, I went out to the range again this afternoon to see if I could duplicate the results I posted above for my Ruger 44 Mag Carbine (as well as to shoot some other rifles). I did duplicate my previous results with virtually the same group size (right at 2" for a 3-shot group at 100 yards with...

This past Sunday, I took several rifles to the range to get them sighted in for deer season. I also took along my old style Ruger 44 carbine, though I have yet to hunt with it. The reason I took this carbine to the range was to check out a little trick someone on another forum had mentioned. The...

I have a Ruger SS MK II in 350 Rem Mag that I bought in 2005. When I first went to the range to shoot it, I used the Remington factory 200 gr ammo, as I had not started to reload for it. My 5-shot 100 yard groups averaged around 3". However, the rifle was new and not yet broken in. Shortly...

My Brother-in-Law ordered some Federal primers from Cabelas in March of this year. He's still waiting for them. No, I don't think you're getting screwed (at least not by Cabelas).

Not being familiar with the Aimpoint H-1, I looked it up and the description states that it has an integral picatinny/weaver mount. If this is correct, Burris (and I think B-Square but I'm not sure) makes a Ruger to Weaver scope mount adapter, which as the name implies has the multiple Weaver...

I'd say you're right. Good shootin!
