    Advice on a good .22 pistol.

    I have a Smith and Wesson Victory. Less expensive than the Buck Mark and Ruger with test reports showing better accuracy than the Ruger or Browning. It is Stainless Steel, comes with a rail for an Optic, two Mags. Take down is easy, one screw. A threaded barrel is available if wanted. The...

    .22 LR ammo is back to normal

    None Here Here in Northern Michigan I haven't seen any .22 LR, .22 Magnum, or 17 rimfire in our local stores in the last eight months. Supplies are no where near "Normal" our area. Three years ago any store that sold ammo had all you wanted at a fair price. Not now. BI

    Savage Mk II FSS

    Try some different brands of standard velocity ammo. Two good ones are Wolf Match Exta and SK. I have a couple rifles that shoot Federal HV Hollow Points very well even though those rounds should not be that good. You just never know. BI

    Russian Ammo

    It's good to know it's not all from Russia. I just checked Natchez and Mid South. Natchez is out, Mid South has some Tula. I attended a gunshow today. Supplies were fair execpt for .22 LR and .380. But, there wasn't much 7.62X39. Some but not a large amount. Prices were high. I did...

    Russian Ammo

    Right now there is lots of it. But, if the problems in the East continue, it may well dry up. Not to start a panic but if you need some for some fun shooting this summer (Or other things) you may want to pick some up sooner rather than latter. :D You can never have too much ammo! BI

    22 Ammo

    Still Gone Here in Northern Michigan .22 ammo is still, after a year, very hard to come by. Our local Walmart gets a little about ouce a week and it sells out in about two hours. I was able to buy one box of 550 rds. there last year. At least he price was about "Normal". None of the...

    My little Squirrel killer

    The "trick" with Acraglass is to use the gel version that comes in the green box. It's much, much easier to work with. BI

    Remington 788 build?

    Weak Bolt Stop Don't run the bolt hard on a 788. It is just a small pin and will break with hard use. Replacements can be hard to locate. Lock and Load! :D

    I like older Winchesters especially .22's

    Those old Winchesters are nice. I have a Model 63 Semi-Auto. It's very well built, old school wood and steel. It's a shooter grade since it has been drilled and tapped for a scope side mount. Other than that, it is in excelent condition. The former owner said he got it in Texas from an oil...

    Sako Rifles - Custom Barrel?

    Bedding Check I have a Sako Hunter in .25-06 bought back in the the late 1980's. When new, about 1.5 inch group at 100 yds. was the best it would do. I glass bedded the action and free floated the barrel. That brought the groups down to 3/4 inch. It's still working well. I have shot deer...

    If This Clears Up-------Stock Up! I always knew this sort of thing could happen. So, I have always kept a stock on hand. Right now, I have about 8K on hand. I didn't buy it all yesterday. It was bought a brick at a time over a number of years. I don't sell ammo, I shoot it. I'll have...

    April Houston gun show 22LR prices...

    Too Much At that price I wonder if he sold any. I was at a local gun show in Northern Michigan last weekend. About the most anyone was paying for regular HV .22 ammo was $7.00 per 50. Most of the ammo was going for around $5.00 to 6.00 per box of 50. That's still way high. But the local...

    Firearms Insurance ?

    Too Much I haven't looked in a few years. But, the last time I did all of the Firearms Insurance was too expensive. After about 10 years you would have spent enough money to pay for all your firearms. The rates may have improved......but I would't count on it. Lock and Load! :D
