Anyone still use stripper clips?

[hongkong2]

I used to keep my money in one when I went to the club.

Yup, use them often. Scout scope setup on a Yugo M48 in 8mm.

They're a finger saver when loading my Model 8 and Model 81

I try to put all of my reloaded 2.23 on stripper clips and then ito the 3 clip cardboard box. Makes it much easier to tell how many rounds I have in the ammo cans and also determine how many I'm throwing the range bag. I also use a StripLULA.

Useful for the SKS. Last year I ordered some 5.56, oddly it came it came in 10 round stripper clips.

Not a fan in the 5.56 world.

Wouldn't mind having one of those. Would probably keep my ammo in the stripper clips.

I'd love having my loose 5.56 on stripper clips for storage alone!

Yep, I believe it's the old school 8mm that works with them…bought a bunch to use with my 8's and 81's in 35 Rem because "if" you can find the original strippers they're a small fortune. Haven't tried with the mdl 8 in 30 Rem to see if they work with that cartridge? I found and bought several hundred new 30 Rem cases on an auction for $15.00 which was like hitting the jackpot, and haven't got around to loading any since I did some load development using Lvr powder several years ago. Fun guns to shoot and pretty dang accurate as well.

LVR is a fantastic powder for 300 Savage, what my Model 81 shoots. The stripper clips work great too.

I bought 16lbs when it was cheap and use it for 35 Rem, 30 Rem and 30-30. I've heard there's been some load development making a 308 Win into a whole new round… would need to play with that to see if it's true. When I retire I'll have to spend some time with that.

390 Savage isn't much different than 308 win.
I was getting 150 fps more than with MR2000

What's are the names of the good restaurants in Salem?
A friend is going to a concert at the Elsinore.

Got me? I'm in central Idaho

I have 8 ammo boxes of 5.56, 30 cal boxes, with all ammo on stripper clips in 30 round boxes and a spoon. They each hold 420 rounds and cost after sale and rebate was around $110 each.

BiMart had them on sale and Federal had the rebates. I would buy a couple every time I went to BiMart. My wife didn't understand, but I can now show her the good investment.

Nope, just an old white haired dude that lives in the middle of nowhere in the mountains

My Pappy always said,
"It's polite to use stripper-clips , otherwise when you tuck a bill into her G-sting it may tend to fall out as she gyrates them hips"

(…. Oooops… never mind…carry on)

 

[jozguns]

And then......I believe that I might have a can of 7.62x39mm on SKS stripper clips. But sadly....no SKS.

Aloha, Mark

Do you want one? I will likely be selling one soon
