I guess I’ll see how it holds up in the long run. Other than the WASR, this is the only other AK in my collection at the moment. Most of my 7.62x39 reloading is for an AR in that caliber. I have close to 1K brass cases for it.

I’m lazy and just buy Hornady 1 shot for 90% of my cases requiring lubrication. The other 10% (straight walled cases like 45-70, .450 Bushmaster and .50 Beowulf) get imperial wax.

Definite possibility

I also have several AR’s, even one in. 7.62x39 but want to have diversity in my collection. I also reload 7.62x39 for the one AR and run commie surplus out of my other AK and SKS’s.

BE-86 shows promise in 10MM, especially with 200 gr loads. I have a near max charge of BE-86 and 200 gr Nosler JHP that performs well in my G40 and S&W M&P 2.0. Still need to chronograph them to get accurate fps. Longshot also works in both 9MM and 10MM And it’s readily available.

Been shpping around for another AK and can’t believe how much they’ve gone up since my last one, which is a WASR I paid $300 for a while ago. Seen several on the market online and on Armslist and decided to get this Hellcat. New, unfired with a brace for $800. Only modification I’ve made is...

Exactly what I experienced with the 165 BTHP. That’s why I moved to the BTSP and it performs great with far less damage.

My daughters Savage 110 .243 with 100 gr Hornady Interlocks and 41 Gr of IMR4350 is a great deer slayer!

After handling 30+ handguns, my wife settled on the Walter CCP. With the reduction recoil system, it’s easier for her to shoot and rack the slide. The ergonomics were also a big factor for her. She carries it everywhere she goes, where allowed.

I have 2 45-70’s now. Still haven’t shot the Henry yet.

My last SKS purchase was in 2000 when I ordered 3 Yugo SKS‘s for $98 each shipped to my home under a C&R. Man I miss those days.

I use Sierra Gameking 165 BTSP for deer. That bullet is one fine freezer filler. I did try the SGK 165 gr BTHP and didn’t like its expansion and damage it did to a doe. Fist size exit and damaged quite a bit. Hit her at 75 yards and she still ran 50 yards. The BTSP had a little more than a...

I put one on my Savage Axis ii in 6.5 CM.

That 9.5 gr group isn’t bad at all. At 1300 fps it would definitely hurt something.

Almost purchased this from Cabelas used library earlier this week. 742 in pretty decent shape.
