Must watch movie/television recommendations & interesting shows
Jamie Jackson replied to Links2k's topic in General Chat
Thanks for the head's up. I watched this over the past few days and it's pretty decent. Interesting take on the subject(s). My local cable/internet carrier just added Paramount+ at no additional charge (they charge enough already!). I've been watching 1923. Being a Yellowstone fan I am thoroughly enjoying it. Well made with good characters thus far. Taylor Sheridan does good work. -
Congratulations Randy! Thank you for posting AJ.

Welcome aboard.

Welcome!

Yes! I lived in Orlando for about 4+ years (went to college there). Damn things were all over campus. Made me change from Ron John flipflops to proper boots (Noconas).

Or riding one with bare feet! But heck, we would walk on the side of an asphalt road and try to avoid the only thing that could penetrate a South Mississippi's boys feet...SANDSPURS! Gravel roads were easier in the 1960's LOL

Prayers sent for a speedy and uneventful recovery. Prayers for your family as well.

Recommendations and thoughts on Taurus Revolvers Revolvers
Jamie Jackson replied to leroy's topic in Handguns
Absolutely @Moped. 100% I read Pistol-Forum daily (around 10 years) as I do TGO (for around 15 years). Lots of knowledge on both forums, just a difference in focus usually. I learn from both. 50-50 issues seems to be about right from what I read there (P-F), and a lot of the folks are active or retired trainers within their departments, active professional trainers, or industry folks, and some very knowledgeable "hobbyists" . If I weren't buying a 30+/- year old S&W Revolver (usually "shooter-grade") that's within my limited gunsmithing skills (parts replacement and a little honing) I would seriously look at current production Taurus. But it's certainly not unusual for each to occasionally make trips back to the "Mothership" for tweaking... I think the risk as it relates to a Taurus 856 having issues is relatively low currently. But the risk just seems to remain with both S&W and Taurus...probably most gun manufactures these days, sadly. But Taurus customer service seems to have improved dramatically over the past couple of years. That said, I've had a great experience with Smith's customer service just last year. Life has risks -
Every gunowner should own at least one 10/22 @btq96r, just saying
-
Well Heck. I guess .22's have their idiosyncrasies like most anything can. I tried another go at the .22 Punch. Did pretty good for around 40 rounds, but had my first failure to eject in my TX 22 Compact/Holosun setup. Kinda knocked my confidence down for that round in this gun. sadly. Guess I'll save it for my LCR. LOL Bulk .22's, Stingers, Minimags etc are GTG, so there's that.

for-trade For Trade: 1000 Wolf Magnum Small Rifle Primers
Jamie Jackson replied to Jamie Jackson's topic in Gear Classifieds
Thank you but I'm only handloading pistol ammo these days, but appreciate the offer. -
Well, what do you know? I found these in the back of the cabinet where I store some of my reloading components. 1000 Wolf Small Rifle primers. ETA Magnum Small rifle primers. 6/19/24 I don't even recall purchasing them but apparently I did. Stored indoors, climate controlled environment. Looking for a LOCAL trade in West Knoxville. I would happily trade the 1000 Wolf Rifle Primers for 800 small pistol primers, any flavor or brand. Not for sale. No shipping. Just PM me with any questions. Trade options, like pistol powder, considered. Thanks for looking.

You know, I might should give them a try again. The failure to feed I had with Punch was within the first few hundred, probably the first 100, rounds I shot through it (before I even put my Holosun on it. I have several thousand rounds through it now (lot's of Auto Match as I had a good stash of it). I even went through an old 550 box of Golden Bullets recently. My little TX Compact loves CCI Stingers, and of course MiniMags. I'll toss a box of Punch in my range bag and try again. Nothing ventured, nothing gained. Congrats @jeff43 ! Hope she runs well for you. @JustEd makes a good point on loading the magazines (probably the weakest link in the chain from what I read...mine all work great fwiw). I load mine by hand, but pay particular attention to the process.

We all need more .22's LOL @KahrMan Absolutely agree. 100%. I am very fortunate that 2 of my regular shooting buddies own them and insist I shoot them when they bring them to the range. And that means I can afford to purchase a Taurus .22 and a couple of LCR's in various calibers
-
As I've mentioned @jeff43, I couldn't be more pleasantly surprised with mine. I'm seeing more and more folks shooting them at the ranges I frequent. A fella had a suppressed one at the range (ORSA) just last Saturday. Ran great. Just to repeat, or mention again. I've found the only ammo it isn't reliable with is Federal Punch. I did have a failure to feed once (maybe twice?) with the Punch, the remainder of the box fed fine. But Caleb Giddings of Taurus warned that due to the flat tip profile of the Punch that would happen. I have a .22 LCR that's proven incredibly reliable. Since it's a .22 RF the trigger is typically heavy, but very smooth. It LOVES Federal Punch, and 8 rounds of Punch isn't anything to sneeze at. Congrats on grabbing the Taurus! Looking forward to your opinions.
