    25/35 WCF Whatcha got?

    I'm not new to reloading by any means, but I've never reloaded for an antique lever gun. Anything in particular that these guns require you look out for? Anyone got data and experience with this cartridge? I have the Hornady 7th? edition and the Lee data to start out with.

    Geisselle Super 700 2 stage trigger

    I was at the Great American Outdoor show the last couple days and ran across this beast at the Geisselle booth. I've never been a 2 stage kinda guy but I'm seriously considering picking one of these up for one of my LR guns. I can say this much, the take up is clean, the wall feels...

    Hey all, I just got my 280AI finished up and have been starting load development with the Berger 180 VLD. I had the rifle throated for the bullet so I've got the case capacity to play with. I haven't really found anyone else running this particular bullet so I struck out "into the great...

    CCI subsonic segmented 40 gr HP, thoughts?

    I ran across this locally and thought I'd give it a go in the 455...dime sized groups at 50 yds and 1" groups at 100! It's a little spendy to not say"super duper extra mega match" on the side of the box but its strong groundhog medicine inside 50 yds. and I think I just might like it for tree...

    New CZ 455 Varmint review/range report

    Okay folks, today was the day. The new 455 Varmint arrived and it was time for initial impressions and range review. It took a visit to the CZ rep and a bit of searching on his part to get this so my hopes were relatively high. My initial impression of the rifle was good. Fit and finish...

    Necking down, what do you do?

    Gunsmithing Remmy Model 5 trigger adjustment?

    Anyone know where I can find a diagram and perhaps some instructions on this trigger? It's like dragging a boat anchor through gravel at the moment but the gun shoots pretty well and i'd like to see if I can't tune it up a bit.
