The Way To Native Chronicles

For safe practice, feed-testing and instructional purposes, having a set of dummy cartridges on hand that are impossible to confuse (visually) with live cartridges is useful. But the store-bought dummy cartridges are quite expensive so, for those who already reload their own ammunition, this video shows how you can make your own, starting with a cartridge with a bullet seated, but having no live primer and no gunpowder inside.

This video shares a useful method of setting your rifle's open sights. The sample rifle is a Model 94, but the techniques are applicable to many others as well. The method used enables you to check your sight settings at a later time, to be sure nothing has been bumped out of line since sighting in, before going afield.

This video shows two things: 1) A novel way to set up (calibrate) a powder measure quickly and accurately for a particular load and 2) How long it actually takes to dispense powder to a tray full of bottle neck cartridges. The claim being made is that a manual, mechanical powder dispenser is faster to use than waiting for an automated (and expensive!) gun powder trickler when reloading.

How fast can you fire follow-up shots using single-shot rifles like the Ruger No. 1? The answer might surprise you if you use the method shown in this video. With four T-1 IHMSA steel targets set up to accentuate the shooting action, I demonstrate a method of holding extra cartridges in my support hand to facilitate quick reloads and how they are fed one after the other. As a bonus, 4 shots are fired at the same targets using a Rossi Ranch Hand chambered for .44 Magnum, showing it's accuracy potential at moderate ranges. Slow-motion replays of the targets when hit are replayed side-by-side for the two cartridges, to give the viewer a sense of the power differential. Quite fun to watch.

This channel features a variety of outdoors and hunting-related topics, ranging from wall tent camping, moose hunts, field preparation of game, trapping, log cabin building, reloading ammunition and even all aspects of bullet casting. Because I'm usually up to something, content is added frequently, but not unless I feel I have something useful or interesting to deliver. As its name suggests, what sets this channel apart from the usual is due to my wife. A "Treaty Indian" (Canada), her side of the family puts a different spin on the way we hunt, when we hunt (she can do so all year), how we camp and how we handle game for consumption - both for the table and for use as clothing. She is skilled in the traditional art of tanning hide, making moccasins, moss bags and such. All this is complimented by the fact we are both licensed as trappers, which gives us access to the pelts we need for her craft. As owners of a trapline, we are working on building a new trapping cabin, which will be documented on this channel. Our trapping occupations also permit us to carry handguns ("Authorizations To Carry",.22 for dispatch and .44 magnum for protection) in the bush, which is not something many people can do in Canada.

Some people (like me) love Ruger No. 1 rifles. Some people (also like me) love the old .45-120 cartridge, slinging 535 grain cast bullets. So what could be better, combining the two into one gun? This is a fun-to-watch video, shooting at a steel gong to demonstrate the hitting power of the .45-120 as compared to a Model 94 .30-30 (both using cast bullets). Load and ballistics data also included. DISCLAIMER: My videos are strictly for documentary, educational, and entertainment purposes only.
