Re: Is all the Copper rerally out

Fourth,not getting all the residue out of barrel,just cleaning till bore is shiny, you can bet grooves have something left in them that acts like a file when you shoot next time after cleaning

Re: Downsides to the 204 for coyotes

I used to shoot yotes with my 22-250, shoulders are getting where recoil is hurting more as i age.
Went to .204 r and im content with less recoil and great accuracy. On my rifles 35 grain bergers are fine on yotes when powderd with cfe 223 or 8208xbr.

Re: Question about age of my single 6?

3 screws were made from mid 50's till 73 with several changes. Rare is 4.5" and 7.5" barrel. But all indications show my single six stamped revolver has a super single six serial number
