HAHA, yes, reloading my .22LR... That's gotta be fun, I was just listing the guns that I shoot often...

Awesome, thanks!!

Sweet, thanks a lot! I'm ordering some now...

What do ya'll know about the CCI Blazer ammo? Nantchez has a sale, I can get 2000rds SHIPPED for $320 ($70 less than 2000rds of whitebox winchesters from Wal-Mart... That's $6.90/50 before shipping... Is this stuff anygood? Consistent/Accurate? Will my Ruger like it??

Awesome, I appreciate it Jay. Thanks again for turning me to this site, what a wealth of information and great people! I'm sure Chuck will be able to answer this better, but did you put your site on yourself? Is there anything to aligning it? BTW, went to Gator Gun last Saturday, tore the center out of a silhouette @ 15yds, when are we gonna go shooting?? I've got a match Wed. night

I just noticed this Saturday when I shot at a range with very poor backlighting... My foresight sucks! There is hardly any hi-viz orange/white on the blade. What would it take to replace/repair this? It is the factory Ruger open sight, and I'd like to keep them open... Perhaps a hi-vis fiberoptic bead like we use on shotguns? Or, would a dab of orange paint be better? Is this somethign I can do myself? It feels like the sight will come off (tiny allen keys perhaps?) THANKS!! Ruger P90

I just noticed this Saturday where I shot at a range with very little back light... My foresight is terrible. The dot is barely visible, and I found myself tracing off the side of the target to try to memorize the sight picture, as I couldn't see it well... Worthless practice day... What is the best replacement sight? I want to keep it open, nothing too fancy, maybe a fiberoptic bead at the most... It's on a Ruger P90 .45, stainless Thanks in advance!!

Thanks a lot guys, I think I'll go ahead and get a reloader within the month... I shot trap competitively for years, and I know that the reloader paid for itself 10x in the course of 20,000rds. What do these Dillon's go for?? If I have a .45ACP Dillon, can I reload other calibers? (.38, .22LR, .25, 9mm to name a few of my other pistols)? Thanks!!

ABSOLUTELY CORRECT, GEEZER!!

I've yet to purchase a reloader, and am still searching for cheap bulk .45 ACP ammo for my Ruger P90. Cabelas has the cheapest Wolf ammo I've found (yet to find any substantially better deals on cheaperthandirt, etc.). Wal-Mart gets me for about $20/100 for Winchester... How does this Wolf stuff shoot?? Anygood??

HAHA, Carmoney, I have seen that hat, I believe I've got one in hunter-orange over the bar. GLAD TO DISCOVER I'VE GOT SOME FELLOW UPLANDERS ON HERE!! (I live in FL and have never even shot at a duck)

I acknowledge the Valentine as the premier detector, but let me vouch for Beltronics. I've been nothing but impressed with my Bel980 for 2yrs. I had another Bel before that, but I left it in the dash of a Black/Black car in longterm parking, and the heat got to it. Features I love the most about the Bel is that they are LOUD (a must), sleek design, great range, and for $270, you cannot get much better. When personally compared with the Valentine, the only advantage is that the V1 tells you where the bogie is at in relation to you. I spend most of my speeding-time on the highway, and if my detector beeps, they must be ahead of me somewhere... As far as range, my buddy and I both hit the brakes at the same time, I had the Bel, he had the V1... It has paid for itself countless times.

Awesome, that's good to hear

When I shot competitively, one of the older fellows at the range gave me an old Pacific 266 reloader. I used it a lot from when I was 15-18. Then, went to college, and it kind of sat. Well, I'm still in college, but I've dusted off the loader and have loaded up some more shells, trying to get back into my 21yd handicap squad. Would the powder which sat for 2 yrs (in dry, cool storage and in the machine loading tubes), go bad? Still smells good... Does powder expire ever? I know once it's in a hull, it'll shoot 30yrs from now, and in the can, probably ok also... what about in the sealed loading tubes? Thanks guys!

Carmoney, that's awesome! One of our buddies from KS that comes up to hunt with us in SD several times a year has shorthairs. Watching them work is an art, pointing, honoring points, etc... From what I hear, Iowa is a great rooster state, and having driven through it on the way from FL to SD last summer, it sure looked 'birdy'. I'm still in school, so pulling away to hunt is sometimes hectic, but I try to get up there for my birthday in January, and my dad's birthday in October. Hafta keep the freezer full, as I've a ton of great recipes for them... ROOSTER!!!

Haha, I bet, but I love those SxS, I shoot and O/U myself,

Alright, I see there a quite a few hunting enthusiasts, both with and w/o firearms... BUT, does anyone else shoot upland? Pheasant?? Went for my first time with my father for my 14th birthday in Illinois, the next year, went to South Dakota. Became an annual tradition that continues to this day, and we have since acquired property in SD to support our addiction and host incredibly fun trips with our friends.

Try racing your car on Gran Turismo 4... That's a pretty sweet little car

Have fun, my roommates just got back from there for our spring break, went to Aguadilia and Rincon, surf was impressive as always. ENJOY!!

Shooting trap competitively, one of the first things you pick up is to focus and shoot with both eyes open. I just began shooting handguns and didn't think this would apply, as the foresight is much closer than on a 32" Barrel. However, last Wednesday I brought 200rds to the range and messed around with it, and became pretty darn consistent in the 5X ring at 8-10yds. I've found that aligning my vertical, then raising to the target and firing when it looks well works best for me... Still have lots of practice to do...

I LOVE this gun...
