Yul Lose

I know you use Kirst Konversion cylinders in some of your revolvers and I’ve ran CCI, MagTech, S&B, Winchester and Federal primers in my Cowboy .45 Special loads for ROA’s with the Kirst cylinders and never had a fail to fire. I run them in my Pedersoli Lightnings also with no fail to fires.

It was good to see you and Shanley again and I sure appreciate you looking after me and bringing me lunch when my right hand man, Minnesota Clay was away at RO training.

You might give these folks a call. Legacy Sawmill Craft legacysawyercraft.com 630-391-1854 First Cut Sawmill firstcutcustomsawmill.com 618-520-4502 They both bring the sawmill to you.

My youngest son lives in the White Mountains in western Arizona and there are a lot of elk there. He does quite well picking up elk antler sheds. He found these on Thursday within a few yards of each other so they probably came from the same bull. He drew an archery bull elk tag in that area for this fall as well.

After winding these springs a couple of times and having trouble with these old fingers I took a spanner tool that I used to use for conversion cylinder firing pins and deepened the slot. I then drilled 2 shallow 1/16” holes in the winding nut on the magazines. Now I have a winding tool for future Ruger 10/22 mag springs. Works pretty slick and the magazines feed flawlessly too. Probably never have to use it again but I thought I’d share.

Somebody destroyed an EV charging station out at a gasoline station that I frequent. I saw it today and should have taken a picture.

Cool, thanks. You’d think with this being a special edition rifle that Rugers quality control would be a little bit better, I guess not.

PM Chicken George, he’d probably get right back to you.

Having fired both the .460 and the .500 I found the .460 much more pleasant to shoot. I’m torn between the S&W .460 and the BFR in 45-70. I was on an elk hunt in Colorado years ago and one of my friends had one and I got to shoot it quite a bit and really liked it. Decisions, decisions.

My son gave me a Ruger 10/22 75th anniversary edition rifle as a gift. We took it out to the range on Monday and the magazine that it came with and 2 others all had loading and feeding issues. I called Ruger and they said to send them in for repair. I guess I could but would rather not do it if there is an easy fix. These are the ones with the red plastic rotary cartridge holder inside. Any help would be appreciated. I had an old magazine and it loaded and fed flawlessly. UPDATE: Well I disassembled the magazines and sure enough the spring tension was non existent on one and the other it wasn’t 2 turns, if that, so I wound the spring tension on both of them up and put them back together and they feed flawlessly. Mrs. Lose had to leave on an errand so I fired off both magazines in the back yard with no issues. Thanks for all of the help and suggestions.

Scarlett, those 2 pards did an excellent job and represented Bullets By Scarlett well. I believe I stopped by on Monday and the bullets had arrived a short time before and Lt. Dan knew exactly where my order was. I’ve known Boggus Deal for many years and I knew he’d do whatever it took to keep things running smoothly in your tent. Glad you’re home and we’ll see you next year.

We’d just moved to Casa Grande, Az. from Sheridan, Wyoming and couldn’t believe the heat. My oldest daughter had just been delivered by a doctor in his little office. She wasn’t going to wait to be born in a hospital.

I’ve had a Sig P229 in .357 Sig for about 25 years. Early on it was my concealed carry piece for visiting my remote mountaintop communications sites. Concealing it was an issue because it’s not that small so I used a concealed carry waist pouch to carry it in. Now it’s pretty much a home defense piece because I use a smaller 9mm for concealed carry now. I do like the larger grip of the P229 and extra available magazine capacity.

HC, now I’ll never beat you.

That Pubic hanging thing might be painful, just saying.
