    Mini-14 ammo

    81 and just picked up my first Mini-14 in .223. I'm a Springfield/Garand man but age and weakness/arthuritis are creeping up on me. For decades I have head peripherally about not being able to shoot USGI .556mm in the Ruger. Didn't make sense to me there it is. This gun is a 1995 Ranch Mini...

    Allowed deer to walk on by,,,

    No telephoto. Not sure who watches who at my place but, since none of them have shot at me I tend to leave them alone. The only pesky thing is the occasional deer sleeping in front of the 50 yd target.

    Found A Clean Single Six

    I'm assuming it came home with you!!!!!!! Great price on a really good .22 LR. It was made before the change to a larger bore diameter, and will be very accurate. And when was the switch to a larger bore for the Single-Six?

    How often do you clean your chambers in a cylinder?

    Not SEMI-auto, which implies that full auto pistols are common, but SELF-LOADING pistols and revolving pistols; all of which are repeaters as opposed to single-shot pistols.
