  1. Pablo will be all over that!
  2. steves or Steve S as he goes by over on Bitog, he hasn't posted at either site in several months?
  3. I just read an article about the .348 in Handloader magazine, I liked yours better.
  4. Sure does sound like an ammo problem to me.
  5. The recoil didn't look much worse than a 460 Weatherby. My step dad is a collector of Weatherby Mark V Deluxe rifles, and he has an early German made 460 without the muzzle brake, which I shoot every chance I get, and that .700 didn't look like it recoiled any worse than that.

    Taurus Quality

    I would agree with that Wayne. I really don't even consider a Taurus anymore when shopping, seems to much of a hit or miss proposition.

    Taurus Quality

    I have a model 607 that I bought in 1996 and two Raging Bulls in 454, that I bought in 1998, both are of excellent quality. The wife fell in love with a model 85, which I bought around 2004 and the fit and finish is certainly not up the the level of my others from the mid-late 90's. The only Taurus product I would consider now would be one from the mid to late 90's, and likely only another Raging Bull.
  8. Thinking of adding a Dillon to get into more quantity, I'll keep the single stage stuff for quality.
  9. I have an original 995 bought in 1996, it's a no frills gun that just simply works. It has thousands of rounds through it from factory loads to my hot handloads and I have had no issues at all.
  10. The tape is blown away by before the bullet leaves the barrel, and I only use it on my muzzle loaders to help keep the powder charge dry, never used any tape on a cartridge gun.
  11. I always tape the muzzle of my muzzle loader during inclement weather when deer hunting. I have taken several deer while having the muzzle taped and if the POI was altered I have not noticed it. I have always used black electrical too.
  12. From what I saw, the U shaped frame of the tool broke in two. He has long since sold those AK's and has prolly done 3 or 4 more canted sights on different AK's he has bought, not to mention all his buddies who have used the tool.
  13. Same type of tool yes, but the $5 NcStar tool is a far cry from the quality of the TAPCO tool. My brother learned the hard way, the $5 tool broke on the second canted sight my brother tried to correct on a Romanian AK. That is why I recommended the quality tool to you, but hey, as long as it worked.

    S&W 4006

    That is a fine looking gun, every time I see one I get the itch to buy one.

    S&W Model 59

    I have a model 39-2 which is the progenitor of the model 59. It belonged to my dad and was his carry gun when he was a LEO. It has many thousands of rounds through it and gives me no problems.
  16. Good choice, should be a tack driver, every Savage I own is.
  17. Take a look at Redfield scopes, they are made in Leupold's factory just down the road from you in Beaverton, Oregon. I have 3 of them now, one of which resides on a 300 Ultra Mag, and could not be more pleased.
  18. Yes, those are Surefire, I believe they changed their name at some point from "surefire gun mags" to simply SGM. Those are the ones I bought as well, very nice mags.
  19. I got mine in around 4 days too, did you get the SureFire or the Pro Mag?

    IMO,there is no way this trigger can be compared favorably to the trigger on a DA revolver. I think Pablo may be right though, perhaps it is simply the trigger take up relative to the size of the pistol makes it seem longer than it really is?

    I don't care for the trigger pull on my PM9 very much, although I am getting used to it. Other than that I like the gun very much.
