Here are a number of YouTube videos I produced on the Lee Pro 6000 progressive reloading press. For the money, there is nothing that comes close. I was using LEE 1000 and Dillon progressive presses. Once I used the PRO 6000 I sold the Dillons and a couple LEE 1000s and bought two 6000s. One
I recently decided to try my hand at “Frontier Cartridge” category in the sport of Cowboy Action Shooting www.sassnet.com Frontier Cartridge requires the use of Black Powder in all the firearms used in this category. I’ll be shooting 38-40 cartridges in the revolvers and the lever action rifle, and loading for these is quite simple
PROPER 17HMR BORE GUIDE!
When Hornady developed the 17HMR rimfire cartridge, they really hit a home-run! And the rifle manufacturers turned out a plethora of rifles to chamber it.
But unlike the 22RF cartridge, which many seasoned shooters will tell you, might never need to have the bore scrubbed, the 17HMR with its “real” copper jacketed bullet and its extreme velocity, needs bore cleaning often.
The problem is, no one makes a “proper” bore guide for this type of rifle. Most 17HMR rifles are nothing more than 22RFM rifles with a 17cal barrel. And many of these 22RF rifles have one issue when you try to use a standard bore guide that protects the delicate chamber edge and the bottle neck area of the chamber. A fixed ejector is in the way.
This little “shark fin” is right in line with the chamber and is fixed. It doesn’t move out of the way. Therefore the bore guide you might use for your centerfire rifles will not pass by and work in this rifle.
Recently the group that oversees the “WILD BUNCH” shooting competition over at the “Single Action Shooting Society” modified the rules on 1911 magazine modifications and now allow a leather magazine pad on the bottom of our 1911 magazines. These can be bought a Mernickle Holsters and they are beautiful…https://www.mernickleholsters.com/ And you can even have your
We perform a modification to the magazine and the trigger guard on the CZ-527 that converts the exposed, some feel rather ugly, drop down magazine to a more modern looking flush mounted magazine. BEFORE AFTER Here’s what we do: Mill the trigger guard to a flush bottom fit. We do not offer blueing, so we
After months looking for another Stainless Steel, Ruger New Model Vaquero in 38/357…..I finally found one at a very reasonable price (Well, reasonable for the Covid times $800!) Problem is, it had a 5.5″ barrel and my other NM Vaquero is 4.62″. A quick request on the SASS Forum and Boomstick had me into a
Well, it only took three years to get this rifle where I want it! It started it’s life as a model 112, stainless single shot in 300 Win Mag. I was building it for 300 and 500 yd Egg Shoots we hold at my local club, plus I’d take it out to Montana for 1000yd
One of the weakest points and an area prone to failure in the Colt Single Action Army and its accurate clones is the handspring. The hand is the part connected to the hammer that when the hammer is cocked, it extends through a window in the frame and rotates the cylinder for the next round
Three Wheeled SASS Gun Cart I’ve been wanting to update my Cowboy Action gun cart for some time. My cousin recently got involved with the sport and I built him a cart that the plans have been rolling around in my head for some time. Here is “Fifthwheel Pete’s” cart I have since added a
I recently started loading shotgun shells as I’ve been shooting lots of a new found sport called TRAP…. I bought a used MEC 9000 progressive loader and set it up in the loading room. I loaded 100 shells and went to the trap range. They all worked great! A couple days later on a raining
