I have an early mini 14 ranch rifle, and I'll shoot it against anyone's ar15.

WTF does this have to do with the rest of your post? Should we all bow down to him?

If it shoots good and you like it, you got a real bargain.

I have a Sierra, and Lee reloading manuals, and a Lyman cast bullet handbook. There are several free manuals to be had a reloading supply stores, and I have several of those as well. Most any of them will be fine, and the more you have, the more info you'll have available.

This belongs in the Survival Skills secion of this forum. In fact, it could take the place of the survival skills section.

:DYou looking to get your money back?

I don't have a 45/70, but I've owned and shot several handi rifles, and I think they are great guns for the money.

Ruger LCP. I'd buy another one of I had it to do over.

How much ya got?

They both shoot around an inch group. Very little recoil. The 243 brass and ammo is a whole lot easier and cheaper to get, but somehow it just isn't as cool as the 257 Rob. Everyone doesn't have one. If you're goig with a mauser action, I think cutting the military stock to fit the child is a great idea.

My boy's both swear by their custom 257 Roberts rifles. They are pretty much a handloading only option however. The oldest has killed two deer with his, and the yougest is still just punching paper. Their grandfather built them for the boys. He also cut down a military stock to youth proportions. It will take the dings and fit the kids' small frames until they get big enough for the real stocks.

That;s got to be some kind of record, assuming it is legitimate. A 100+ lb coyote would be scary.

I do it for all the reasons stated above; obsolete chamberings, lack of ammo availibility, price, and the ability to tailor a load to a specific handgun. I can load a plinking 44 mag load, as well as a full bore hotrod JHP load that hit at the same point of impact. You likely can't but both of those at your local gun shop. I can load pointed bullets for my single shot 30-30. Most of all, however, the reason I handload is that it is an enjoyable hobby. I can go into my basement and tinker all day at my loading bench when the weather is bad. It keeps me out of my wife's hair. A reloaded round of ammo is a bit less expensive than a factory round, but I can't say I save any money doing it, because I shoot more than I would if I didn't reload.

a bit pricey, but they've got the goods!!!

I'd be very happy to find one of those under my tree. They are very nice knives.

...or cameras.

My favorite reply in response to the video.

Welcome, and why not show it off here with some pics?We like Smiths.

We definitely experienced climate change!!! It was up in the 50's yesterday. I don't know if you've stuck your head out, but it's freaking COLD out there!!!!

I found a closeout ono a Sony VAIO all in one a couple of years ago. So far, I like it.

This one's gonna stick with me a while, huh?

The situation has been contained. Move along now.....nothing to see here.

Not a good time to be outside.
