Saturday, I was able to do some range shooting. Including my Winchester Model 70 FW in 7mm Mauser. My handloads all used RP brass cases save three that were Graf and Sons. The Graf cases were made in Europe to CIP specs, not SAAMI. The Graf cases have a slightly larger rim and won't fit in...
Looking at possibly saving up or making more sales to acquire a decent red dot sight for the 16" AR carbine... I'm really liking the classic Aimpoint M2 looks but also kinda liking the Eotech style "heads up display" reflex sights.... the thing is... I'm wanting a Reticle to rail top height of...
I was told once by a buddy that my SOCOM cut barrel was just a thicker m4 barrel even though I didn’t have the grenade attachment cut out.
Googled SOCOM and I see the cutout for “government” socom. What’s up with that?
Like a heavy barrel
WHY Do People not recognize the difference between the Legitimate ADS on NWF and the ADS on the Beta Classifieds??
It Amazes Me. But People are posting ADS where it clearly says Do NOT Post Legitimate ADS here.
I have Tried to HELP People. I have Posted things such as the Below Post...
I have metric shlt-ton of 9mm brass for plinking and a bunch of nickel that I'm getting ready to load JHP rounds.
While loading a ladder test for the nickel cases I noticed that none of them, after a full length resizing/loading and a light crimp fit in the case gauge completely. 99.9% of the...
Say I work up a load with Federal primers and I switch to Winchester or CCI.
Will there be a difference in velocity or accuracy?
I ask because I have about 150 of each of these 3 brands.
Thanks

I reload 6.5 CM for my Tikka Tac A1 and primarily shoot Hornady ELD-Match bullets. For every new box of these Hornady bullets, I take 3 random bullets and measure lands distance using Hornady tools. Lands distance from the previous box was within 5/1000 of an inch for 3 measurements using 3...
So I was at the range yesterday shooting test loads in my Creedmoor. Started with 144 gr. Berger Long Range Hybrid Target (who comes up with these names :confused:?) and VV N555, SD's were looking excellent across the entire range of charge weights, only one out of 10 was over 10, and 4 were...
Wondering what the difference is in 115gr and 124gr (other than weight in grains)? I dont have a grain scale and some of my ammo was mixed, and try as I might, I cant seem to be able to figure out what difference 9 grains actually makes in the "real world"... And when, out of curiosity I put a...
So I'm thinking that it's time to start reloading for my new 10mm "ghost gun". I've definitely got the hang of rifle. Is there anything that I should know? BTW this is a Glock 20 with a lonewolf match stock length barrel.
Thanks

Took a walk up the road yesterday.
One neighbor (the surgeon) was helping another neighbor with building his shop by using an excavator to move some drainage rock around.
When that was done, the neighbor building his shop brought out his new deer rifle to show off.
Another neighbor drives by...
Here's an oldie for shut ins. This is the real deal from the horses mouth. I'm surprised it hasn't been deleted on youtube. Maybe because it seems terribly boring.. But the information is real..

I had an opportunity to exercise my Matchlock Musket Sunday and verify P.O.A. of the new sight I had installed. I thought I would try some new patches.
I have been using cut to size, "T" Shirt material. The new patches were 2" round, cotton, "Make-Up" pads. First, I seated the ball, (Marble)...
I don't own a rifle that fires these calibers but I know the general difference between the two. I happen to commonly collect tons of these brass from the range. And so for all you rifle owners who reloads these calibers, would you want a brass seller like me to separate the 223 vs 5.56 to sell...
Besides one's 150gr FMJ for M1 Garand and the other 150gr SP with no mention of Garand.

I know these are two of the more popular powders, especially for 9mm. The cost between them are similar. For all you experienced reloaders who may know, is there much difference or advantage between the two? They must be different somehow, otherwise they would not be two separate powders.
