Boyds gun stocks
Umm,,,, Boyds are mass produced. They always need some sort of fitting and clearance work. Overall price vs quality they are tough to beat. My biggest complaint are that they are heavy. I do see that your biggest problem is that the cheek piece is on the wrong side.- Redmt

Holy Crap!
Nah, I don't scare or startle very much but I did pull the shot a couple inches.- Redmt

Holy Crap!
I was checking groups for a load work up on a buddy's .300 WSM this morning. It was just starting to drizzle a bit but no biggie. I'm sending the 3rd round down range when simultaneously a lightning thunder strike hits about 1/4 mile behind me. Instant HOLY SHIT. I don't scare easily but that...- Redmt

Looking for a light weight.22 revolver
Yup. They definitely went through sideways and intact. -
Looking for a light weight.22 revolver
I actually did some pattern tests developing the .38 load. The first 2 are from my 6" S&W. The last is the same hand load from the snub nose. The 4.5 refers to the powder load. -

So is a well placed rock. Sticks and rocks are cheap but tough to carry around working outside. -
Looking for a light weight.22 revolver
A buddy sent me a .38/.357 2" snub nose. I have a 100 or so snake loads in .38 . The 2" barrel gives a single monster hole at 15'. There's no pattern spread at all. The same issue with a 2" Beretta with .22 snake loads. The short barrels just won't spread the shot. -

The shorter barrel won't spread the snake shot loads. This isn't a "fun gun" it's strictly a snake killer. It needs to be light enough to carry in a hip holster for reasons stated and something she is familiar with. -

The evening news is even doing stories about the rattlers this year. -

Interesting. They even come in pink and they are 4 oz. lighter. -

I'm going to keep her with what she knows and is comfortable with. Today is the 54th anniversary of her 18th birthday. The saying about learning new tricks comes to mind -
Looking for a light weight.22 revolver
Yeah, being able to afford it does play a big part seeing as how I'm not really a productive human being anymore. I wish Social Security would keep pace with the rest of the economy -
Looking for a light weight.22 revolver
Here's what she's using. It's an 8 shot Arminius HW5 . It shaves bullets but is perfect for snake shot. It weighs just over 27 oz. The Ruger, Heritage and Wrangler we have all are heavier. When your wife asks for a different pistol, what am I going to say? No? I thought about buying her a nice... -

Short barrel won't spread the shot capsule. -
Looking for advice on necking down brass for wildcat
I've resized .223 to .300 BO. 6.5 Creedmoor to 22-250 and .270 to 25-06. As was already said, anneal if necessary. Don't try to do a quick resize in one stroke. DON'T LUBE the shoulders. I've used Imperial dry graphite on the necks.- Redmt

Looking for a light weight.22 revolver
Yeah, snake shot won't feed through a semi automatic. She has a Lady Beretta but same issue is it won't feed a second shot if needed She's outside doing something around the ranch all day, most every day. There's a rifle on everything with wheels around here but they aren't always handy. -
Looking for a light weight.22 revolver
I wish I could put snake loads in her Glock 43. She needs it for the damn rattlers we seem to be infested with this year. She shot one at 9:30 at night a couple days ago. -
