  1. Miroku has been that way since the first ones came out. kR
  2. I would have notified ATF and Law enforcement immediately. kR
  3. Missouri Lefty does not double cock. kR
  4. The main springs from Taylors are not as heavy as OEM and you have to do little if any spring reduction to make them serviceable. I bought the extra length fp's for our rifles. kR
  5. That, right there, says more than I can put into words. kR
  6. I go to the local (65 miles away) exchange once in a while and there prices are usual higher than what I can buy stuff elsewhere for. kR
  7. The shorter the barrel the less time it will have to rise. In one of the rifles I have a 205g bullet moving at 2500 fps will be 18" high at 100 yds, compared to a 147g bullet moving at 2900 fps. So yes, how much difference depends on barrel length, velocity etc. kR
  8. My Mernicle rig was built for NM Vaqueros. I use it for Uberti, Pietta, NMV and old model Vaqueros. I had to use a little holster lube for the OMV's but every thing else works fine. kR
  9. Several things you can check. The bolt face-make sure it has not become peened by many primers being hit, it may be that the fp hole is closed a little. Firing pin channel- clean it with a good cleaner and a pipe cleaner. Also check the fp spring it may be a little stronger than needed. Mainspring may be weak from years of use. Check the hammer to make sure crud is not between it and the frame. FP extension- make sure it is clean as well as the channel it runs in. Check to make sure your primary main spring screw is tight. ALL of these parts have to be free of crud and properly lubed in order for that little primer to go bang.
  10. Sad part is some of us have to shoot with the pards that are wantin to give p's and misses. kR
  11. Are those Uberti or Pietta? If Uberti are they 4 click? kR
  12. Just a guess but the Elephant probably weighs more than the Schuetzen because of the fines in it. When I shot a lot of long range ML we used to sock the powder to get rid of the fines. Also made it shoot a lot cleaner. kR PS good to hear from you Driftwood.
  13. When the Marines get there they will find the Sea Bees there building them a firebase. kR
  14. If you go look at that "tamarak" for about 15 to 20 minutes you will discover it is indeed a hackmatack. kR
  15. The best Hot Sauce I have ever had was made by a great SASS shooter when she and her husband owned a couple of Mexican restaurants in Maine. Some of ya'll might remember Stormy Shooter. kR
  16. Years ago in Myrtle Beach SC there was a restaurant called Dirty Dick's. A year or so later the name had been changed to Dick's. kR
  17. Lucas #2 red grease, bout the same as Mobil. Only have 8 cap guns, never had a problem. kR
