    Let's see your Belt or Rifleman's knife

    Here are a couple I recently finished. The scales are scraps I had in the garage. The brass guards were made from a bar from ebay. This sheath turned out well, but my first sheath was a learning experience.

    50 PRB speed over a chrono

    I had the chrono set up at the range to check some evil black rifle rounds, so I thought, what the heck. I use Hornady 0.495 pure lead balls with an average weight of 182.5 grains. 0.018 pillow ticking patch and Track's mink oil patch lube. Powder was Schuetzen FFFg. I also swabbed and dried...
