WHEN YOU HAVE A CHANGE IN THE TOTAL,EITHER UP OR DOWN ,SHOULD YOU JUST STATE WHAT YOU HAVE ADDED OR SUBTRACTED OR SHOULD YOU PROVIDE YOUR NEW SITUATION AND NULLIFY YOUR FIRST POSTING? KEN

GrampaMike · « **Reply #543 on:** April 12, 2010, 11:20:19 AM »

Kody

Either way is fine with me, just say "I added 30 new handi's" or "Subtract 30 Handi's from my total because I gave them all to GrampaMike". Either way works for me. Thanks, Mike.

I guess I have enough to say I have a collection starting.

Just aquired one receiver with two synthetic stocks & the following barrels:

.410 3" full,
20ga. 3" mod,
12ga. 3" mod,
.223 bull with 3-9x40,
.243 with 4x32, &
45-70.

already had

20ga 3" mod,
10ga. 3 1/2" full,
.270 3-12x50,
30-30.

guess that's 10 sounds like a start to me.

I just picked up a .223 the other day.
I haven't taken it to the range yet.
I will as soon as I get a scope on it.

Hofs01 · « **Reply #553 on:** May 01, 2010, 11:14:30 AM »

I finally rounded them all up after the big move, they are as follows:
Complete guns:
1. Topper 158 357
2. Topper 158 12ga
3. Topper 158 16 ga
4. Topper 158 30-30 (Profiled Receiver)
5. Topper 158 30-30 (Profiled Receiver)
6. Topper 158 30-30 (Profiled Receiver)
7. Topper 158 22 Jet (Profiled Receiver)
8. Topper 158 20ga (Profiled Receiver)
9. Topper 158 .410 (Profiled Receiver)
10. Topper 158 .410 (Profiled Receiver)
11. Versa pak 22/.410
12. Versa pak 22
13. NEF 17 Fireball
14. NEF 243
15. NEF 44mag
16. NEF 22 Hornet
17. NEF 204
18. NEF 7.62

Looks like that makes me a Master Handi-holic and well on my way to a Terminal NUTS Handi-holic!

spikehorn · « **Reply #555 on:** May 08, 2010, 09:11:56 AM »

Add one for me. A 1940 H&R 12ga with tang release followed me home today for $60

bikerbeans · « **Reply #556 on:** May 08, 2010, 11:22:27 AM »

Spikehorn,

Nice addition to your collection. Is the new (well old actually) scatter gun a shooter?

BB

I lost track on what I have or haven't posted so new list:

18.5" 45/70
22" 45/70
32" 45/70

50 Cal Huntsman

22" 410 w/red dot youth slug gun

22" 223 Rem
22" 30-06
22" 22-250 wife's gun

no extra barrels, 1 barrel 1 frame policy.

spikehorn · « **Reply #557 on:** May 08, 2010, 11:34:06 AM »

Yes it is a shooter! Wood is in very good condition. barrel and receiver are what you would expect from a 70 year old gun. no pitting in the bore, and just the tiniest bit of side to side play when closed. I'm using the antlers from a basket rack 8 point from a few years ago to make a gun rack for it.

reclown · « **Reply #558 on:** May 12, 2010, 03:42:10 PM »

Add 1 to the total just got one of the new 35 whelens pallet wood, brings me to 9 complete and 3 barrels

Hey Guys, I think I am back… AGAIN. Things went bad, BUT am on the upswing now, going to be more careful. Have been online once and awhile, but not for very long. Mostly just reading, sure miss you guys. But enough of this soft stuff.

Been editing my spreadsheet data, had some of you guys in it twice! Fixed everything, it didn’t change the data too much. Sorry about that.

(wayne24) the 45 Colt is becoming one of my favs to shoot, especially with the hard cast. Think I will get another one to make it a 454 Casull.

(xd shooter) I use the XD 45 as my “Truck Concealed” gun, funny since I am have been a revolver guy all my life. Shot a friends XD and I just had to have one.

(streak) 3 308’s at a time! You might be getting the disease really bad, or was it just a flare-up?

(Hofs01) my kind of guy… very organized list.

(jlwilliams) you may be right… all Handi Owners seem to find their way here.

Note: Please Handi-holics, even ones with only one Handi, we need your numbers (number of Handi-holics is more important than the Handi’s themselves, counting the guns is just fun). Besides we all started with just one Handi.

Tim can represent the NUMBER of handi-holics whenever he talks with anyone connected to the Company. It can’t hurt.

Grandpa,

Glad to here you are feeling better. Remember to take care of yourself so you have plenty of time to spoil those grandkids.

wayne24 · « **Reply #562 on:** May 18, 2010, 10:45:27 AM »

Grampamike,

I am also glad you are feeling better.I like my little 45 colt but I already have bought a bag of 454 brass .It won't be long before it is reamed to A 454,I am just trying to decide which one of my 44 mags is going to get reamed to 445 supermag and then I can rent both reamers at one time.

you can also and a 308 handi to the list .Just picked it up a few weeks ago and forgot to post it here.

Stay healthy!!!!!!
Wayne

Thanks BB and Wayne.

(wayne24) I trim the 454 Casull brass to 45 Colt length to use stouter loads. Just to be safe as the 454 Casull brass may be stronger.

G'Day Grand Pa Mike.
I have a ''plastic '' .22 hornet to add to the list if you want to add a Handi from ''Down Under''.

Keep up the good work fellas.

PawPaw · « **Reply #565 on:** May 22, 2010, 08:46:03 AM »

I was doing some photography for an article this morning and set up in the back yard with my HR/NEF rifles.

Left to right:

1. .410 Partner shotgun
2. .45-70 Hunter model. WGRS peep sight
3. .30-30 Hunter w/ old Tasco 3X9
4. .308 Ultra Hunter w/3X9 Simmons Whitetail
5. .223 Ultra Hunter w/ 6X18 Swift Premium Mil-Dot

I've still got to do some range work with the .30-30 and the .223. Maybe next week.

It shoots pretty good, although I haven't done any specific load development for it. Using my standard .308 load (Reloder 15 and 168 Gameking), it shoots into about 1.5 inches at 100 yards. I could probably find a load that "stacks 'em", but I've got a lot of things on my plate right now. For now, it shoots good enough

GrampaMike · « **Reply #568 on:** May 24, 2010, 05:55:44 AM »

GrampaMike,

I just added another complete Handi in 44 Magnum. It is my 40th handi, finally made it to 40.

GrampaMike.

ps This is getting a little confusing, but I need to remind myself or I might add it to the total.
