I'll be hunting with a CVA Wolf scoped with a Leupold M8 4x. I shoot 295 grain Powerbelt bullets on top of two 50 grain Triple 7 pellets, ignited by a 209 Winchester shotgun primer. If my oldest son decides to tag along, I'll hand that to him and carry my left handed Thompson Center Renegade with factoy iron sights, loaded with a big ole Great Plains hollow point, on top of 90 grains of Pyrodex, and ignited by a standard percussion cap.

I believe you also have to purchase a basic hunting/fishing license along with your big game gun and big game muzzlzloader tags. Furthermore, if you wish to shoot a deer on a wildlife management area, or else shoot a doe with a rifle in a non quota hunt, you need a type 94 permit. It's darn near as confusing as filing your income taxes.

Assuming you've saved your brass, you can get blemished bullets for less than $20 per 100, let's say $5 per hundred for the primers, and about $22 for a pound of powder. You'll have some powder left over, but this would come to about $.47 per round. That's less than $10 per box. The cool thing about reloading is that you'd spend the same to reload 100 rounds of the 300 Holland and Holland or the 300 Savage!!! That's where you'll really save. 44 Magnum ammo will be cheaper, as you can choose cast bullets which are less expensive, and a pound of powder will last a loooooong time. Theoretically, you can save money reloading, but I don't know anyone who ever has. We all just shoot a lot more. The great thing about reloading is that your imagination is the limit on what you can shoot in your gun. You can tailor a load for optimum performance, tighter groups, etc. I've even loaded crushed walnut hulls in a 38 special for shooting bore bees. You can't buy those in the store. What have you got that's chambered for 300 Savage? A 99 perhaps?

Great snag! I like it.

LOL! My wife has a 2 year supply of toilet paper in the bathroom closet.

But they are cheap??!!! Sort of like Wal Mart. You get what you pay for.

I can vouch for ATI's customer service. I had a part break on my GSG 1911-22, so I emailed them looking to buy a replacement. I received a quick response stating that if they could get my address and the serial number on the gun, they's send the part free of charge.

Maybe you two should hook up and discuss the end of the world as we know it.

There's definitely more to it that sticking in a new cylinder. The timing and cylinder gap may or may not be correct. The OP may have the required knowledge to check and correct these, but most of us simply don't.

I'd get a second opinion from Michael Vick before trying this.

I've heard all this bad stuff said about Russian ammo, but I've found that it shoots great in any gun I've fired it in. Bad rumors travel very fast. Most of the people I've heard this stuff from have never actually fired any. I've fired steel cased commercial Russian ammo in 7.62x39, 7.62x54R, 223, and 45 ACP with satisfactoy results.

You are talking about spending a bunch of money to devalue a nice revolver. If you're o.k. with that, go for it.

google smith and wesson pinto. A forum search here wil probably turn one up as well. Hard to tell from the flash, but this F.I.E. Titan has a blue frame and barrel with a nickel cylinder and ejector housing.

And how would that be any worse?

Yeah, but who's counting?

Man, that Ithaca sure trips my trigger!

That'll work! I like how you made the belt loops. Do make certain the snaps are plenty strong. I'll bet that carries very comfortably.

I'm a full grown feller, and I still shoot a 20.

If he's happy, that's great. I don't think he's very good at what he does if he's only making 11k per year, however. At least he'll not likely become an addict on that income.

It varies from rifle to rifle, but from personal experience, I haven't found heavy barreled rifles to be appreciably more accurate than standard or even featherwieght barrels. They don't heat up as fast, and the extra mass helps keep the gun steady on a bench. If it's going to spend all it's time sitting on a bench, get the heavy barrel. If you're going to do any walking around with the rifle, leave the heavy barrel at the store.

Maybe it's because I'm accustomed to shooting magnums, but I don't find the LCP at all uncomfortable to shoot. I also was surprised how easy it is to hit with mine; considering it is such a small gun. As for the accessories, just buy a lot of ammo and get used to it.

That appears to be a very fine and serviceable holster. I like it!

Just one? You're kidding, right?

AR-15.

Maybe now I can get some Cuban cigars!!!
