    Platform is more important to me than cartridge is. Semi auto pistols, I'll take a 9mm, 357 Sig, 40 S&W, 10mm or 45 ACP as long as it's in a blaster I shoot good. I'm not much of a revolver guy. The only one I have is a Smith & Wesson M60 3", 5 shot 357 Mag. It actually shoots pretty good for how small it is.

    ETA; 10mm. I'd take a 10mm too.

    OK Gun guys. I have a 1873 Winchester in .32-20 that needs a little love. It works and shoots and looks pretty good for a rifle of that age and has never been refurbished.

    My question is about finding parts, particularly the catch and/or spring that slides the dust cover on top back when cycling the action. Done some internet surfing but nothing conclusive yet.

    Anyone have some guidance? Thanks:D

    Quick trip to the rifle range to continue load development for my 280 Ackley Improved with 143 gr Hammer monolithic copper bullets. I think we have not one, but TWO winning loads. 1st one is 3095 fps and .224 MOA 3 shot group at 100 yd (square is 1" O.D.). The second one is 3131 fps and 0.189 MOA. :bug: Ignore elevation, scope is still zeroed for a heavier, slower bullet. Not bad for a hunting rifle off sandbags.:whistle:

    Anyone interested in some Talley mounts ?

    $30 a set plus shipping

    The first set came on a Browning x-bolt, marked as L’s, 1” tube sizing, missing one base mounting bolt the other 7 are included & has the torx wrench. All the ring bolts are there. I put on some H’s to accommodate the scope I had.

    The second set is for a Savage 111 :
    Savage pre-Accutrigger Scope Mounts w/ Flat Rear Receiver

    These are medium height, have all 4 base mounting bolts, the wrench & all the ring bolts are there.

    New suppressor came home today! KGM R30. NFA/ATF shenanigans only took 6 calendar days / 4 working days. Woo Hoo! Looking forward to getting it out to the range this weekend or sooner if possible. It will be a massive upgrade from shooting with brakes.
