Thanks for the reply,That was a very nice story you shared with us,& thanks for the info & the reloading load.Yea i agree those days are gone,When i was 12 we had bobwhite coveys & rabbit everwhere but no deer or turkey much,now opposite.How do you shoot the birds with out a dog,I always wondered?I want to try grouse here in Ga. with out a dog.My dogs hunt & tree everything but are hounds instead of bird dogs.They love to hunt.I had another thought about the old drilling.Someone told me that the primer i blew up could have been from a worn firing pin that has gotten sharp with wear?Also they said the hole around the firing pin could be stretched with age & use & dryfireing? & that it is to big and kinda stamps the metal into it & is just worn out around the hole?Have you ever heard of this before?If so could it be fixed?I have heard of bushed firing pins but dont know exactly what that means.Iam going to try it with shooting glasses on with New S&B ammo before i take it back to the gunsmith that checked it out for me before I shot her the first time.Also have you ever tried sub caliber inserts to shoot other calibers?I thought of getting some in lesser calibers to keep the pressures lower & just plink & maybe target shoot?I think i could shoot 9mm makrov & 28gauge shotshell?Any caliber suggestions besides 22LR.Also do you know who makes inserts?Can they be accurate to 25yrds?
Thanks for the help Nitrobrothers & this has been a learning experince & Great FUN!!!!
