Oh yeah, Browning had to be different - remove the pin with a 3/32" pin punch from left to right.

Remove the mag tube cap, spring, & follower. Remove the front barrel band/sight. Remove the rear barrel band. Slide mag tube & fore end forward out of and off the action.

Only one bad one. Initially, anyway. But the seller gave me a full refund and told me to keep the item, as return shipping would be prohibitive, considering what I paid. A few years ago, I was looking for a small frame .38 for my daughter, and the seller sent me the revolver and said, "If you like it, send me $XXX.xx, and if you don't, send it back." Might have been Parson John Tourmann above, I don't remember.

He worked at a lead smelter here in East Helena, and played on the plant's baseball team - The Smelterites. http://www.helenahistory.org/Charlie_Pride_In_Helena.htm

And is it a Great Plains Rifle or Great Plains Hunter? Lots of folks call the Great Plains rifles a Great Plains Rifle, regardless of which one it is.

I live in Montana... not many see-leb-erty's 'round these parts. Hank Jr. and Randy Weaver can be seen at gun shows occasionally. Becky Munden still shows up at Cowboy shoots now and again, but not to shoot, just to get out, I think. Sat next to Eddie Albert on a flight from Vegas to San Francisco about... 1975 or so. Coach. Must have had a bad weekend at the craps table. Met Bill Jordan in the restaurant of the Rainbow hotel in Great Falls in June of 1988. The Keiths were friends of my grandparents, and I met Elmer several times in my youth. Charlie Pride was a good friend of my parents way back before he hit it big as a singer, and I've met him a few times.

And two Dillon M134's.

I've had occasional problems with Photobucket, but they are few and far between. Once or twice a year maybe.

Well I've tried everything I know and can't get past the Forums page to view topics or post to threads. :-( ~Sent from my mountaintop via semaphore

That's interesting - the https address gets me to the main page on my home Internet service, then to the forums page, but when I click on a forum, then I get the same "cannot connect" message. Sent from my mountaintop via semaphore

About 4 days ago, SASSNET.COM became inaccessible via my Internet provider. At first, I thought the site was just down again, but discovered my phone accesses it just fine through Verizon, but not when connected through my home Internet provider. Every other site works fine, including several other gun oriented sites - TFL, CASCITY, GLOCKTALK, SIXGUNS, etc., so it doesn't seem to be a blanket block of gun sites... weird. I called the provider and was on the phone with them for 45 minutes resetting, remoting, etc, and they can't figure it out either. ~Sent from my mountaintop via semaphore.

The only 10mm I've ever owned is a full size Glock 20SF. I use a max load of 800X and a Hornady 180 gr XTP - more than the max load listed on Hodgdon's online reloading data center Web page, but in line with other online sources. Blue Dot, Longshot, 800x, and AA#9 seem to be the most often used powders for full power loads.

The answer to why is pretty simple. The movie had 1911 .45's, 1897 12 gauges, and 1892 .44-40's & .38-40's. There warn't no .38/357's, .32-20's or .25-20's in the movie.

Like many of us, I started with a Rossi '92, then went to 1873's, but the longer I play the game, the more I like Marlins. I've owned ten 1892's (1 Browning, 9 Rossi's), currently still have seven, and have never been "frustrated" with them. If you're willing to go with .44 mag, decent Marlins, even JM Marlins, can be had in the mid-$500 range. There's a very nice JM .44 mag on gunbroker right now that has been relisted several times starting at $549/BIN $599, with no bids.

She was a sweetheart, and will be missed by all that knew her.

Oldest first, unless I'm loading for long range. Like I stated, some of the CCI's I bought last year date to the late 50's, and they've all functioned just fine.

Some of these stacks are four bricks deep, and there are several thousand more down at the house. Also about 6,000 Remington #10 caps. If I had to guess, I'd say I have more Federal 100's than anything else, followed by CCI, then Winchester, then MagTech, then Remington. Something over 100,000 total, plus maybe 7,000 or so percussion caps. Some of these are 7-8 years old, but I picked up a mixed lot last year (2016) with some CCI's that date to the 50's, and every one of them has worked so far.

Shiloh. That said, although the Shiloh is very accurate, my Pedersoli is consistently a bit more accurate, and is the one I use for long range side matches. Buy decent sights. A bubble level front globe is mandatory if you expect to be competitive at the longer ranges. Setting up the sights can be quite time consuming - the tang sight mast needs to be perfectly perpendicular to the action and the bubble level front sight needs to be perfectly level in relation to the mast. If the mast isn't perfectly perpendicular to the action and at a perfect right angle to the bubble level, the point of impact can move substantially to the left or right as the eyepiece is moved up the mast for progressively longer shots.

None of my 6 barrels puts their two shots anywhere close to 12" apart at "card table" distances. Perhaps as much as 8" or so at 25 yards, but not at 1 yard!

Holy crap, 36,400+ rounds per year on a single stage press! My personal record is 11,226, but I have a friend in Wyoming who CLAIMS to load 104,000+ per year for modern precision long-range... on a single stage press... and a balance beam scale... I have my doubts about that...

Fer shootin', Bond. Fer looks, Cobra/Cimarron I've got a Bond with barrels in .22lr, .38/.357, .44 spl. (spl only, NOT .44 mag), .44-40, .45acp, and .45 Colt (.45 only, NOT .410).

I like that.

There's one club around here that allows it. However, like PaleWolf pointed out, once you step outside the rules, where do you stop? "I'd shoot Cowboy Action if I could use my 1100 Remington, a Glock 17, a Ruger 10/22, and didn't have to wear the goofy clothes." I'd definitely shoot my Lugers or S&W M&P revolvers in Wild Bunch. :-)
