One of these days you will feed me, and I will insist on paying.

Oh man.....I can I come over and take it apart?
Seriously - that does suck. Sweet seller. Looks like there aren't TOO many bad ones active on GunBroker....or they should be long gone.
-
Unless it states otherwise, that would be muzzle velocity.
I was kinda thinkin' by the relatively higher numbers it was muzzle....good rule of thumb.
You guys are in for it when I start askin' reloading questions!

Pablo,
It's a load table for those that want to use this particular Hornady bullet with the powders on the left. The red cells just mean that the charge weight is the maximum charge for that powder. The velocity is what you'll get with the charge weight of the powder on the left.

Of course I understand that - but the velocity in the X axis - is that muzzle or 50 yds?
-
Very effective rounds. Also very expensive. Barnes also makes some impressive bullets but again $$$ is the word.
They are faster since they are lighter.
I've always used either a reloaded JSP or full lead round and they have killed anything I've shot well. Both in the .357mag or .44mag Marlins.
For blowing up items I use an JHP and that works WELL! Nothing like a milk jug being here today and gone today... Vapor!
Well for sure faster than 240 and 300 gr bullets. Seems like on paper As with any cartridge, you can get some better power via speed with handloads. Is this table for muzzle velocity?

Thanks!
As I dry cycled the gun I found the action to be solid, but a little tight compared other levers. It looked a bit dry, so the good news is a little MP made it smoother with a little notchiness. After I shoot it a few times I will explore this further.

Wow - how nice is that?
Sweet. Thanks for the Christmas present!!
-
Got the gun. Pretty nice. Scratch is not so deep, I can fix it. Hardly looks fired at all.
Gotta get to the range.......slow my breathing a bit...
-
For all my guns really. Do you guys go to the factory or have a secret source??
One guy has this (for example):

I don't really want to pay $10+S/H for a copy, if you know what I mean.
-
Yowser!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (I only watched a few minutes - thanks)
That's nasty - pretty ironic too when he is talking about how burr free the gun is.
-
That's why I didn't mind breaking the $500 limit. Shipping and fees and hassle avoidance are worth it. I googlymapped his location. Amazingly close by.
-
Well I watched it and I enjoyed the video. Darn it if the frame on that gun ain't cracked so bad I wouldn't have shot it! I don't know how Hickok didn't notice that!
It is? I just can't sit through a whole 20 minutes. At what time did you see the crack??
-
I'm hoping that scratch isn't as bad as it looks. I would be just sick if I did that to one of my guns I bought new, but heck it doesn't bug me that much..yet.
Not really a video guy.
-
I'm a wiener. I was dreaming about a lower price, but oh well.
Need to arrange pick-up.
-
Wonderful can of worms to open...I enjoy caliber debates like no other!
For sure though Pablo that .44 Magnum gun you are buying will drop a hog reliably at 50 yards or less. You can never guarantee a one shot drop on any beast!
I hadn't planned on any local hunts, but it does look like there are some wild pigs around here. I was thinking more about when I move southeast, become an antihippie and live off the land. The .44 mag would be sporting for close up "fun".
-
You guys are making me hungry.
-
What is the best overall gun and caliber for the feral pig menace? Drop 'em in one good shot, not anger them....if you know what I mean.
-
Pretty fancy. Not taking that boar huntin'!!
-
That there is a scoundrel gun.
Shoots other various bad guys as well.
-
If it's only a buck or two diff for 50 rounds....then the low bidder loses out. I'll check out what you guys like best and follow your lead.

Here's what he said:
Quote:I'm not the original owner. I bought it about 4 years ago. I have not shot it since I bought it. I did buy it from a dealer and he said it shot great. I have cycled ammo through it while hunting and it feeds well .I have not run any 44 specials through it. I do not have the owners manual or paperwork. I don't mind meeting at all but I do ask that you sign a firearms bill of sale, provide some ID and I will accept cash or a bank cashiers check. -
All this talk of 92 levers gave me the itch too, so I visited my local gun shop today and had them order me a Rossi R92 in 454 Casull to match my 454 revolvers.
Good luck on your B92 Pablo, I see you are still the top bidder!
Thanks. I emailed the seller, no response yet. Just asked him a few questions about the gun. Never bought a gun this way before - but thanks you - turned me on to Gunbroker.com and I hadn't thanked you yet.
-
I done did see your AR. Nice.
Best gun for large wild pigs....

Anybody in the south with a pig "problem" give me a shout. I'll pay for your food and stuff if you put me up and point me in the right direction!!
