Not a stupid question at all. In fact Tubb makes a "fire lapping" kit. To me it's a lazy man's way of lapping cause it removes metal in a uniform fashion instead of letting you concentrate on burrs...

It IS possible to port a barrel using milling bit, milling vise, and a drill press if you know what you're doing & PAY ATTENTION. Milling bits won't leave a burr inside the barrel unless you try to...

The best way is a sized lead slug impregnated with fine (600 or 800) lapping compound. Taking care to go from the breech end and keep your rod absolutely straight. That way you can feel any tight...

I've hand lapped a lot of barrels & I've NEVER seen a decrease in accuracy by lapping them. In fact I recommend it to anybody wanting decreased fouling and better accuracy in a new factory gun. The...

It's not true. There's no way lead shot from a .38/.357 shotshell will damage the steel barrel. Not only that but it's encapsuled in a plastic cup.

I like the DAO trigger pull on the LCR .357. It's light and smooth straight out of the box. The trigger design has a "cam" to allow for the light smooth pull. I've shot the LCR .357 and it wasn't...

I wouldn't try it if I was you. It's a job for a competent gunsmith as .300 Win Mag cases are belted and fatter than the .270 case. Your gunsmith may have to even cut the magazine in 1/2 lengthwise...

In the 1st place, put the file away, it'll only cause more burrs. You can try lightly polishing the mag well where it's hitting on the sides.

How bad of shape is the extractor that's on it? I'd recommend building it back up by welding it, machine it down, and heat treat it.

A .22LR expends more energy in a squirrel than a pellet even has to begin with. And at 800-900 fps (actual velocity at target based on 1,000-1,100 fps @ muzzle) you DON'T have "shock waves" when it...

I'm HIGHLY interested in learning exactly how you figure that a .177 pellet rifle is way better at killing squirrels than a .22LR.

There's NO WAY I'd try to kill a coyote with a .177 pellet rifle!!!!!! If you try it all you're going to do is educate it and possibly cripple it. Save your money and get them with a "real" firearm.

Yeah Ruger makes the GP100 in blued. Go handle both Ruger GP100 & S&W 586 and see which feels best in your hand. I chose the GP100.
