      Anyone chrono'd their Ruger Alaskan 44 mag?

      You could start here. http://www.ballisticsbytheinch.com/ http://www.ballisticsbytheinch.com/44mag.html They do some pretty thorough testing.

      School me on the Mossbert 702 Plinkster

      My 702 is great. It has eaten all 8 types of ammo i've fed it so far without a hitch. It drives tacks at 50 yrds or less and was 2-4" groups at 100. I guess I got a good one because I love it. :thumbsup:

      Mid-Atlantic Firearms Training

      I attended the class Saturday. Bryan and Ken and their team were very professional and made it an enjoyable class. Their presentation got the information across and made the 5hr class zoom right by. Well done.

      Gerber LMF II

      Just picked one up, but haven't put it though the paces yet. Nice knife, weight is good. I got mine based on a friends recommendation and this test http://www.knifetests.com/GerberLMFIIASEK.html He does some brutal tests and rated it well.

      Where can I get a good price on a Beretta Neos?

      just got one a few weeks ago 289 basspro out the door. Shoots great and it's eaten all 10 kinds of ammo i put in it flawlessly so far. The recall was for unsafe safeties the newer guns starting a few months ago don't need it they came out of the factory with the new part

      Semi-auto rimfire rifle?

      If you're looking for a semi to shoot cheaply that's fun I can't say enough good things about the mossberg plinkster. It has eaten every kind of ammo I throw at it without fail and was a tack driver out of the box. The downside is not many accessories or modifications available if you want to...

      A sling for an IAC Hawk 982?

      In staying with the inexpensive spirit of the HAWK you can put one of these on the front http://www.midwayusa.com/viewproduct/?productnumber=117369 and then pick up a cheap sling at walmart. I got a pretty nice winchester easy adjust for under 20 bucks.

      Removing Cosmoline with Steam

      These rifles don't instantly rust like anything else it takes time. If you let it dry and clean and oil it after it's no problem. I am just not sure it's the way to go on the furniture. The steam makes the wood swell slightly and it shows every little ding and dent the cosmoline was hiding...

      Removing Cosmoline with Steam

      I'm Currently trying this method as well. While the cosmoline runs off metal parts right away when hit with the steam, it seems to draw it out of the wood but then even if you wipe at it it seems to harden or dry and gets cloudy. How did you get around this from happening?

      Can't find .45 yet again.

      Thanks for your insight. I was under the impression it took much longer than this. I will have to investigate further.

      Can't find .45 yet again.

      I have thought of going this route often because of cost savings, but how much time would you estimate it takes you to make 1000 rounds of ammo? Never having reloaded before, I honestly have no idea and I have always seen this as the major drawback.
