      Scuba diving anyone?

      Just got started into scuba diving a few months ago, working it into my repertoire for this year and beyond and was wondering who around here does it and where. There are a bunch of divers near where I live but none within my immediate reach or connections. Ones I do see occasionally through my...

      Big Truck 3D course?

      Has anyone been to Big Truck Farms and tried their archery setup there? (Or just been there at all?) If so what's it like? I'm looking to get into the swing of things this year, basically a beginner having done a small amount a few years ago, and it looks like a cool place to visit for the day...

      60gr+ varmint load for .223?

      So it looks like PA is finally getting its act together and getting modern rifles legal for hunting, probably next year. Goody! First up will likely be varminting, and oh how wonderful I have 3 5.56's ready for that. (Also a son on the way according to the wife, so in 6 years or so it'll be...

      A Simple Timney in 700 Problem

      Simple scenario here which I should hope should have a clear answer. I have a left handed Remington 700 long action that was put in a custom wood stock for target use sometime around 1979-1980. I'll eventually get it in a chassis, but want to shoot it now before I go any further with the...

      Drone fishing?

      I saw something on Facebook a couple months ago that has my interest quite a bit. I love to fish in saltwater but budget and housing arrangements preclude me from having my own boat. Surf fishing would be logical to do but spotty for results. Using a kite to get the line further out to the fish...

      Cast lead .44 in lever gun

      A buddy of mine just picked up a .44 mag Marlin and as a favor to him I'll be helping load up some ammo for it. On the economical side for ammo is the tried and true 240 LSWC, which I think we'll go with because I can then also load some JHP's in the same weight. Now the question becomes as to...

      Reloading dented cases

      I just resized some 7.62x54R brass from my PSL which had a dent in them from the shoulder to the body, about the length of a small staple. Upon sizing the dent actually got a bit worse, and is shaped like a kite. Apparently the majority of the dent's size came after the resizing, like I used too...

      saltwater worms

      I'm working on putting together a full array of tackle for the next month or two plus all of next year in all out effort to master fishing here in my new home area. Having spent 90% of my fishing time on the Gulf Coast I must admit I know very little first hand about inshore stuff here in the...

      Berkeley Gulp saltwater--any good?

      Berkley Gulp saltwater--any good? My wife and I are getting the itch to do some more fishing down in DE, MD, and VA with as many opportunities as possible the next couple of months, plus some time in Alabama as well. While in Alabama we'll be out on a boat a lot of the time with my dad, when in...

      Any Solution to Govt Ammo Grab?

      Is there any remedy available to we the people to the nonstop government hoarding of ammo that's tying up the market right now? Is it possible to challenge it in a lawsuit? Here we are going on month number three of bare shelves in local stores, big chains, and online stores and if it were any...

      Precision Cast bullet load data

      Anyone have reloading data for Precision Cast bullets made in Lebanon, PA? Right now I'm going to be trying out the 155 SWC and 180 grain FP in .40. I'm planning on using Hodgdon Titegroup but if you've got any info for another common powder I can pick that up too. I tried calling and...

      Pistol die brand differences?

      Rising ammo prices have brought me to the point where reloading is now imperative, I cannot avoid it any longer. My next step is to pick up some dies in .40 and possibly other calibers in the next couple of months. I'm stumped, however, as to how much better I would be with one brand of dies...

      PSL scope mount difficulties

      I'm REALLY starting to think I should have gone w/ a FAL or AR-10... Any PSL experts here? HELP!!! (Please.) Ok, so I got the Kalinka low profile centered side mount scope rail to fit on my PSL. It was built on a Romanian import receiver from TG in Knoxville. As has been typical with all...

      NY: Nassau Police Commish Sued for Delaying Licenses

      http://fios1news.com/longisland/node/16450 As previously mentioned elsewhere, NY requires a license with similar app and vetting process to a CCW for even owning a pistol prior to purchase, possession, or even handling one. The process is famously obstructive and thanks to some rather nasty...

      Froglube for pistols?

      My wife may be getting her first pistol in the next few months. I'm very much wanting for her to be able to take care of it herself but she hates the smell of most gun oils and cleaners. I've seen recently that some people use Frog Lube for their pistols and it's not a petroleum based lube so no...

      AK vs. PSL scope rails

      I'm working on getting some optics for my PSL and might get another Kalashnikov variant at some point in the future as well, so a question comes up. What are the differences between the side rails on them? What do I need to know about fitting between the two styles--are they interchangeable or...

      Prvi Partizan bullets

      Has anyone here used Prvi Partizan bullets for reloading? They have a specific size I've been looking for that's hard to find but I've never heard much about people using them yet. Any particular experiences or observations?

      PSL springs and heavy ammo

      I recall having read previously that there's a reason to use only light ball in PSL's, that too heavy of ammo would recoil too much and beat up the springs and rear trunnion. Is this applicable to reloads I might do with 174 grain BTHP's or is it just a matter of the surplus stuff being loaded...

      Best AK/PSL trigger parts and tuning?

      I'm looking to do a really good PSL build in the next few weeks. Someone told me that AK trigger sets will fit in them––if so, or even otherwise, what's my best option for getting it the best trigger pull? I gather that many times a PSL's trigger leaves much to be desired so I want to do it...

      7.62x54R loads for PSL?

      I'm in the process of getting a PSL built and it gives me the occasion to reload to see what the rifle will be capable of. I gather the barrel will be more or less new so I'm not going to be dealing with a shot out old drain pipe that can't be accurate. I see that brass and bullets are available...
