For something a bit more challenging try spent .45 cases as targets. I've even shot them off the tops of bowling pins with the goal of not disturbing the pin in the process. Fastest one to clear the tops of five pins without knocking any over wins!

Re: The new Ruger Mark IV Target and Hunter
I agree with you George. I have met a lot of interesting people over the years just by helping them through the maintenance process with their Ruger pistols.

Re: Bolt Action 22
You have a point there about the Model 60's trigger they are not ideal. I have had success in making some of them crisper, but it is not a pleasant task of taking one down to work the trigger.

Re: The new Ruger Mark IV Target and Hunter
The barrel is still the receiver on the Mark IV and that makes having multiple barrels impractical from a serial number perspective.

Re: Bolt Action 22
I have found that the Model 60's "micro-grooved" barrel shoots all varieties of .22 ammo very accurately, even Remington Thunderbolts. Some brands don't cycle well but they all seem to hit the mark. I would expect the bolt version to perform in the same manner.

Re: The new Ruger Mark IV Target and Hunter
You didn't miss anything. It was officially released on Sept. 23rd, although a few of the blog writers and gun magazines got an early chance to review them. I don't generally comment until I've had a good chance to inspect a new model. Some of the new features look interesting but the MSRP is a bit ...

Re: New Stock for Model 70
I have a pre-64 .308 Palma gun with a wooden stock. It's a match gun and not for slogging around in the field so the wooden stock is great for the range. I do like the look of a nice checkered wood stock.

I check the forum every day or so. Hasn't been too many posts lately but I do get a lot of false registrations on a daily basis.

Re: Ruger mk1 question
The big difference between the Mark I and the Standard models are the adjustable vs. fixed sights. The barrel profiles of these pistols are shaped accordingly to accommodate the sighting system of each model. Other than that they pretty much function the same.

Re: Kicking my b---
The first thing to check is to ensure the hammer strut is staying on the mainspring cap when the MS housing is closed and latched. If it is not then what can happen when you close the mainspring housing is the strut slips of the MS cap and is pinched against the magazine body, which may be what is c...

Re: Another "assault rifle" shooting
The rifle is one aspect of the discussion some are having in an attempt to distract most people away from the more prime motives for this shooting. Others are focused upon the fundamental beliefs of the individual who caused the tragedy. The initial information is generally wrong in many ways but ov...

Re: The Dark Side
Factory Glock barrels come with the polygonal rifling and do not recommend use of any reloaded ammunition in them. Aftermarket barrels made for Glocks with traditional rifling can handle reloads. I find field stripping a fairly easy task, but activating the slide lock (takedown bar) can be a bit of ...
