Maybe he meant "model 27" I have one of those.

I was #19 in the Selective service lottery draft to be called up 1971. I figured that I wasn't coming back from that mess, and I didn't want to burden my parents with my beagles so I started selling stuff. My three rabbit hounds went first. A guy came all the way from Arkansas to watch them...

,410 scarcity started to show about the same time that .22LR got scarce. 22LR has recovered but not .410 Years back I tried reloading some for my son and I could not get one good crimp out of 100. Ballistic Products sells reloading components for .410 if you are interested.

Since the tag says Drilling I vote for Drilling as the manufacturer.

Look at the Springfield model 2020. I handled one a a gun show. Feels comfortable and looks to be well made. Reviews are saying that it's a real performer.

This past August I stumbled into a LGS and gasped at a pile of Remington 9 1/2 primers. At 89.95 a brick I jumped in with both feet and came out with 6000. I thought about it and went back 5 hours later and they were all gone. I ate Cheerios for a week but was comfortable with my decision...

What do you plug the flash hole with when checking H20 capacities?

Last year I shot a 6pt walking straight at me. I had been glassing it for about 170yds as it grazed up a dozer trail straight as an arrow to me. It was getting really dark so I decided that I had to shoot it soon or the opportunity would be gone. At 80yds I put the cross hairs square center...

Some deer have an "S" on their chest and wear a cape.

I've hunted with many outfitters that lease farms and manage the deer herd. One in particular leases 5 farms totaling 23,000 acres. Not a single fence in sight. Deer are free to come and go as they please. Some folks have a skewed Idea about how these properties operate. Congrats to Kyle

And that Brass Boss will keep all your case prep very consistent, from case to case.

One like it will be fine.

Also record what ever you measure in a notebook. That way when you hit on something that works, you know for sure that you can repeat it.
