Bud Light was not sinking. Just dumb leftist senior employees. Kinda like the senior vice president of Disney that claimed her two kids were gay and trans and that all Disney product would have some "queer" in it. Unfortunately it is not just sinking companies. Walmart tried it and they are not sinking. They just canned their DEI division.

I tried the pre-cooked stuff from the local grocery store. It was expensive. Then the wife of a friend told me to buy Costco pre-cooked. I did and it was great. You get at least five times as much bacon as the grocery store stuff for the same price.

This makes no sense. Funneling is what causes unsupported portions of the chamber.

In case you are a car enthusiast and have not seen the new Jaguar ad here is a parody of the ad that shows some of the actual ad. No cars in the ad just weird people. Looks like the new CEO of Jaguar just sank the company.

Yep pretty much everyone has gone to or is going to the cheaper Reifenhauser style of shell construction. STS and AA are about the only game in town for brass heads and even the "Premium" Winchester AA Diamond Grade have steel heads. Federal use to make premium shells like the Gold Medal but they have also gone downhill. Since Federal and Remingtom ammo are owned by the same company Federal is now bringing Remington STS hulls dyed plum to the Federal plant and loading them as the Federal HOA. (High Over All.)

FYI those are brass washed STEEL heads. A lot of shotguns do not like cheap steel headed ammo. Sometimes you have to break them over your knee to get them open. It is a cheap $300 gun shooting cheap RIO shells. About par for the course.

It is a Dillon size SW powder funnel.

It is a Dillon size SW powder funnel. The S next to it is what comes with the .32 H&R.

I never had any luck with that short funnel. This is what I use. I also had to trim about .060" off the sizers on several sets of .32-20 to set the shoulder back far enough to get them to feed in a variety of antique and modern .32-20s.

FYI the topic is the Single Six in .32. The .22s are still available and have always been cheaper.

I have three of the Mr. Bullet Feeders and have done a lot of experimenting with them. Once the bullets start getting very short they tend to have some problems. In this photo is a Miss Scarlett 125 on the left, an SNS 100 in the middle and a 105 truncated cone. The 125 is .500" long and feeds fine. The 100 is .460" long and three or four per hundred will be upside down. The 105 is longer but because of the very sharp nose it will have an occasional bullet feed upside down. I watch as the shells come out of the bullet feeding station and if the bullet is upside down I turn it over. I have not tried the 105 Miss Scarlet is presently selling but she notes it is .475" long. That may be enough for reliable feeding. One thing you will need is the small spring bullet feeder tube. The short bullets can turn sideways and get stuck in the standard tube.

Percussion caps are so hard to find and so expensive right now no one is going to use them for dry firing.

A link to what you are talking about would be useful as a lot of Turkish guns are imported under different brand names.

A short statement about gun ownership in Weimar Germany - Weimar Germany was heavily disarmed under the terms of the Versailles Treaty. This included all private firearms, which all (at least in theory) had to be surrendered and destroyed. This was relaxed slightly in 1928 when laws reintroducing private ownership were reintroduced, although it was fairly tightly controlled.

In 1926 when Germany was suffering from hyper-inflation the Weimar Republic imposed a tax on dogs. Many Berliners could not afford the tax so they dutifully brought in their dogs to be euthanized.

The rifling on these guns is about .004" deep. It is not shallow that is what it is supposed to be.

Are you serious? Looks like a scam?

Found this while I was cleaning out some old paperwork. A couple of years after Ruger quit making the Single Six in .32 H&R they made a clean-up run to clear out remaining parts. Standard Single Sixes had 4 5/8" barrels. The clean-up run had 5 1/2" barrels so I decided to buy a pair to have them on hand. What a difference 9 years makes. (I blacked out my personal data.) In case you cannot read the invoice they were $368.99 each.

? My brandy new Ruger Marlin in .357 has eight grooves. I have never seen a Cowboy Comp with a MicroGroove barrel.

Gee I was going to say call Johnny Meadows. I guess that won't work.

Does it say MicroGroove on the barrel? If it does not it is not.

It is called Faux Ebony.

A lot of the people I know who use to do this work are retired. If you shoot at a local club see who they use locally. There is a thread going on right now where people are picking up the base model Stoegers for under $300.00.

The reproductions do not have blast shields on the front of the cylinder. The cylinder gap is directly over the base pin. They do not do well with heavy loads of BP.

5 or 6 per box. That is a potentially disastrous rate. His gun is dangerous.
