I friend of mine uses his classic Kentucky muzzle loader rifles in 45 and 36 calibers. We paced out a shot he once made with the 45 to 175 yards. Quite the sight when that round ball smacked the little critter. Me I like to use my 1903A3 Remington with 110 grain bullets. Stock rear sights...

If Alphono's doesn't make them anymore I would go with the fabric one if it basically does what you want. A cheap starter unit. Then after you've used it for a while find someone that works with leather and have one made with any little additions or adjustments you come up with from your...

Couldn't find any leather pouches but did find this. If all else fails it could be used as a pattern for a leather pouch. https://www.cheaperthandirt.com/uncle-mikes-folding-handgun-cartridge-carrier-12-rounds-nylon-black-88441/FC-043699884414.html Alphonso's used to make exactly what you're...

Looking at a 1lb container of #2 Accurate handgun powder I think a 1liter plastic oil can with a screw top would hold 1lb of powder or a 4 liter or one gallon plastic oil can might hold 4 lbs. They're made of thick dark plastic like powder containers. Just wash, rinse, and dry them real good...

If this is in the wrong place please move it. I'm not connected to these folks and ran across them while looking for 20 gauge Magtech brass shells which seem impossible to find. They makes custom, obsolete, and antique brass shells. They're not cheap but they do make brass shotgun shells so I...

I once saw a cartoon of a guy robbing somebody that was completely freaking out. The caption was, "What good is it to have a silencer when you're going to make so much noise?" Ride Safe. Dr.Tramp..............

I have a friend that guides down in SW Colorado. Last year was kind of postponed but if you like I can ask him if he's going to be doing any guiding this year. Ride Safe. Dr.Tramp...........

Just thought I'd toss this out. It's been 20+ years but once upon a time I lived and worked in Europe for a bit over 5 years; Bavaria and the Netherlands (Holland) but mostly in the Flemish region of Belgium. I was a private contractor Harley technician. Belgium is great, awesome food, over 2000...

Welcome. I'm a relatively new member myself over in Cheyenne. Ride Safe. Dr.Tramp.......

There are several private indoor shooting ranges in the Cheyenne WY area but most are booked up for a year or two in advance. I'm a member at the Otto Road Shooting Range. http://www.ottoroadshootingrange.com/home It's an all outdoor range, though most of the benches are shaded, with a number of...

If 22s and shotguns are givens I'd go with: 45/70 for heavy game - buffalo to elephants. 30-06 for smaller game - mule deer and moose. 270 Win for distance shooting - antelope and varmints. 45acp and 38 special for handgun shooting. Hmmm..... I already have all those in the safe. Ride Safe...

I'm in Cheyenne WY. and have 4lbs. of Ramshot Enforcer in 4 - 1lbs containers, 4lbs of Alliant Extruded 2400 in a 4lb container, and 8lbs of Accurate XMR 4350 in an 8lb container (all unopened) that I would like to trade (face to face and no sales) for an equal amount of shotgun powder or any...

I have one of these over my reloading bench to remind me to pay attention while reloading. I don't want my stuff to "usually" work. :) Ride Safe. Dr.Tramp.............
