    Speer shot capsules now available

    I've found #12 shot (scarce as hen's teeth) is the key to those capsules if you can find them. For close range vermin and things without legs they're devastating.

    Blazer ammo

    I like Blazer brass rounds a lot, along with S&B and Winchester White Box in my 45 acp and 9mm. Good cheap range ammo. However, I shot about 50 rounds of Blazer Brass 45 acp 230 gr. fmj's the other day breaking in my Tisas 45 Tank Commander (ran flawless), and on sorting out my brass at home to...

    New SP101 in .327 arrived today - Quality Control ???

    A few months back I saw a 3" stainless SP101 in 357Mag. that had chatter marks the length of the rear sight groove. I assumed it wasn't supposed to be like that and couldn't believe Ruger would let something like that out the door. Guess that's just a sign of the times.

    Ruger No. 1 in 257 Weatherby Magnum

    And beautiful!! I had a 6mm No.1 with wood like that years and years ago but foolishly traded it off.

    Alliant powder going up

    Looking at my internet reloading supply sites, everything is going up. And more than the 7% The Vista CEO said. Me thinks troubled times ahead for reloading supplies. Another way to subvert the 2nd Amendment?

    What are you paying for primers ??

    The problem is Johnnu2, if one is caught short at this point (and they shouldn't be short as they should have stocked up over the last three years any way they could) there may not be primers for sale in the near future. What should one do in that situation? You grit your teeth and pay the...

    Ruger rifles I want.

    As always, when this subject comes up..."What I'd like Ruger to make"; I'd love to see a Ruger No. 1A in .348 Winchester. Alas, in this day and age of plastic fantastic it ain't going to happen.

    OM Ruger SBH refurbish?

    Just shows character. As others have said, keep it as it is and enjoy it.

    Scope for .308 M77 RSI

    Leupold 2x7. I think that's enough scope for your intended purposes plus it's small enough to complement the rifle's aesthetics.

    What are you paying for primers ??

    Today I picked-up a brick of CCI 400 Rifle primers at the local Sportsmans Warehouse for $63.00 out the door. Been the going price (when they could get primers in) for about two years...which tells me the big internet sites (Midway/Grafs/Natchez etc) have been hosing us for years....
