Re: Tss shell to shell inconsistency ?

Re: Velocity ...fps?
Spheres do not act like bullets. The faster a sphere is driven causes the sphere lose that velocity gain just as quickly.

Re: Hammer Extension for 301T?
I know the hammer dimensions vary greatly between the manufacturers and models. I am wondering if anyone is using an extension on their 301T and which one it is if so. The 301T hammer is not as thick or as broad as some of the other hammer guns I have and the extensions on those are not even close t...

Re: Hammer Extension for 301T?
Beware of hammer extensions. if you mount one, test fire multiple low cost rounds to make sure it does slow the hammer speed below consistent percussion of the primer. I've seen problems when I mounted an extension on my TC years ago. Gil Yes, absolutely. I had witnessed it first hand with my Ultra...

301T Range session
I put the smallest scope that I had laying around on it which happened to be a CHEAP UTG tactical type scope. Anyway...it worked perfectly. I cleaned the shotgun spotless, relubed , put some antiseize on the choke threads and headed to the range. I did not have any turkey head targets but did have s...

Re: Stevens 301 .410
I am picking one up today at my local and extremely small gun shop for $200 ,tax and PICS instacheck , out the door. Guessing the gun was in the $175 range.
I'll find out for sure how much the gun actually costs when I get there.
He said he could get one and I said OK!

George Fennell of Weapon Shield fame also invented FP10.
The company forced him out and then he developed Weapon Shield.
