Was cleaning out the ammo boxes and came across a hand load from awhile back. went and shot it this weekend and boy did it shoot nice out of a 20" PSA barrel 1 in 7 twist, on a A2 lower. Absolutely no recoil (big $20 muzzle break, bench and bags) brass = LC13 primer=WSR Powder IMR 4895 Bullet...

so I went to check my nightstand pistol last night and found the mag release button gone. The button on the right side of the grip that releases the mag evaporated. searched the carpet with a 800lb pull magnet and found a spring and nothing else (except a few .177 BB's). where can I find...

Need help puting a value to this shotgun. My dad is moving and would like to sell this over under but we cant seem to find a good market value for it. from what i can see it is a Browning Citori PV(1985?) 153 (not 725?), 28" barrel, 2 3/4" to 3" chamber, made in japan. SN is 07xx02. My google-fu...

Working on 300 blackout loads with Hornady 150gr FMJ and CFE black. None of my books have data for it, so I'm bound to one source of data the hodgdon web site. The page shows 2.235 for COL, fits the mag and dummy round chambers fine. Dosent seem like much bullet in the neck, cases trimmed to...

Hello all. Found some .308 Palma cases in the discount cave for $30, couldn't pass 100 new Lapua cases at that price. Quick loogle search showed me that they are a small rifle primer .308 case. What should I be looking at as far as load data goes. Same as normal book data? what primer? Read that...

Here is a pic. of my find. 50+ cases total is the dimple on the head near the primer something like a steak or primer crimp? or an after affect of firing?

Found some brass at the range today with a head stamp I cant find much about. Head stamp is -SSA- 308 SWAT. I know that it is silver state armory, but a quick google search didn't turn up much more. I also found some belt linkage near the spent cases, I assume (from what I could find) are...

I recentally built a 300 acc upper and finally got to test it today. it is a 16" with a pistol length gas tube.The lower and bolt is an Olympic arms that has run flawlessally in 556 for years. Fit and from lower to upper is pretty good, verry little slop. I ran into an issue with it cycling, it...

Hello again every one. I'm back with yet another cartage to load and basic questions. Seems I have fallen down the reloading rabbit hole and feel the need to reload for every firearm I own. I haven't bought a commercially produced round for about 4 years now (Are their meetings I should go to...

looking for a inexpensive yet functional upper receiver for a 300 bo build. I found a blem from gorilla machining that looks promising. any one have any experience with this company? any other suggestions on where to look? this is a spare parts build. I picked up a barrel from a friend at a...

Ok, I guess I lied. curiosity got the best of me (again). I spun the fan blade (unplugged) with a screwdriver. I found that it is getting hung up with the hot glue mound on this cable.. It runs now, kind of noisy. their seems to an abundance of hot glue spiderwebs and some black plastic chips in...

Thought I got a great deal on a 2500 Pro Magnum Tumbler. Local fleet and farm had it on clearance for $70, got another 10% off for open box. Unit is DOA right out of the box! Motor is locked up. Just hums, no movement. Of course lyman Is closed today... "Quality assurance" tag says to contact...

100 rnds through it today. Two 10rnd mag dumps and some double taps to get it nice and warm near the end of shooting session. Zero cycling and feed problems. Brought it home, removed the hand guard and checked everything. All seems to be right and tight. Must have done something right:). Thanks...

so I want to free float my ar. I picked up all the parts I need and have the barrel nut changed out and the old front sight / gas block removed. this is the first time I done a project like this. every thing went smoothly, but I have one question before I install the gas block. the A2 front...

So, a friend at work was showing me his Winchester super x ammo he picked up. It is a 200gr hollow point flat base bullet with crimp groove (can-l-u-r. I cant spell apparently) loaded subsonic for the 300 blackout. it would seem that my google-fu is not strong on this one. any one know who makes...

Looking for advise on primers. I've been using CCI BR2 for large rifle, CCI small rifle, and pistol for a while. They were readily available at the LGS and price wasn't that much different until recently. The gander mountain near me closed, the C word (cabela's) turned to the B word (bass pro)...

Any one have issues with the Lee precision 90230 New Auto Prime Hand Priming Tool. I have the old one with the metal handle and square tray (not sure of model #) and it works good except the occasional upside down primer (1 in 100). I just picked up the new plastic handle one with the folding...

My shooting budget is tight, if you all were to go for a 8 pound jug of powder to feed your 308 and 556 what would it be? 308 is bolt and 556 as ar15 (if that matters). I have developed good loads for both with BLC2, IMR 4895, and IMR 4064. I shoot 1-2k or so per year of each. I know that one...

Any one loading these 223 55gr Frangible Sinterfire? how well do they shoot? where do you get load data? None of my books cover them, looks like an interesting bullet. They look long for weight. might be fun for close range steel. seems like a good defensive round according to the manufacturer...

Does anyone have a good way of cleaning dust from your walnut/corncob tumbling media? New sand blast / tumbling media seems to contain a lot of dusty material. Normally I run the vibe outside with an open top. Winter is coming and I don't want this residue inside my house. Can it be washed out...
