    Let's talk 40gr & lighter loads in 223

    Rodents are out over here in my neck of the woods which has helped me work through the remaining stock of H4198 I've had on hand for over 10 years... at which point I went to acquire more and essentially realized I was all done using H4198 given it's 'new' asking price. Close to a quarter per...

    Who has built an AR-10 in 22-250 out there? Help me order an outrageously expensive custom barrel, or talk me out of it.....

    A 1-8 twist 22-250 seems like it would be a dream come true if it functioned even somewhat reliably. I have piles of brass and suitable .224'' bullets from 36gr - 77gr. that I'd like to try and utilize, as well as a Trijicon Accupoint with the triangular target dot that I think would be...

    200gr Bonded 30-cal Seconds...

    https://www.midwayusa.com/product/1023405869?pid=186742 Curious if anyone out there on the highroads has been experimenting with this bullet? These have been available for a fair amount of time now. At .26 cents each with a free shipping promo, I decided it'd be a good candidate for the...

    Anyone else notice unsealed 1lb jugs of powder after a recent purchase ?

    Over the weekend I bought a couple 1lb jugs of Retumbo at a local Bi-Mart. Upon opening, it seemed like the seal didn't have any adhesive or was previously opened because it remained inside the lid.... same thing with both jugs. So I sent a quick email to Hodgdon with the lot number, and...

    What make is this rifle?

    A family member inherited this thing along with several others last year and is just now getting around to shooting a few of them... Action has minimal markings. Only thing that seems easily identifiable is the serial. No caliber stamped on the barrel. Calipers placed inside the muzzle...

    Please help me ID this shotgun barrel...

    Recently aquired this 26" barrel in a large lot of goodies. I'm guessing it's extremely common I just don't know my shotguns. Can anyone tell me the make/models it fits? Thanks for the help!

    How would you price this Winchester model 55?

    Well I have yet another one for you guys to eye-ball for me. My Mom recently inherited this rifle and has asked me to price and sell it for her. Finding one from a past sale or auction with similar wear to gauge a price from has been difficult so far... for the most part I just see restored...

    Please educate me on this custom 1898 6.5x55 Mauser...

    A family member recently inherited this rifle and we're having a hard time putting a price on it. With my limited understanding, just comparing to pictures of similar unmodified mausers.... it looks like the top of the receiver has been tapped for scope rings (which were included)... bolt has...

    Looking for info regarding a 'P38 AC40'...

    A family member recently inherited a P38 AC40. Trying to get an idea or a rough ballpark to price it at. Stamped '7216b' on LH slide and trigger guard. RH side of slide has 2 very small stamps reading '359' with a Nazi eagle between them. In the front, under the barrel, it's stamped '8814...

    How many NFA items are 'approved' per year?

    How many NFA related forms/applications are approved - annually - that require a pre-emptive $200 'Tax'? Are these numbers even published & readily available? Web searches related to this topic yield such an overwhelming amount of 'wait time' talk that I had to see if anyone here could point...

    9mm Sub-Sonic 115-124gr - is louder than most 147gr ammo?

    Mods- I have this same thread posted in your "Handloading" sub-forums as well - I realize it's more of a Reloading question - but I'm getting crickets so far.... Lately I acquired a couple different .355s to play with - all of which are 115gr - 124gr. I've used 147gr bullets exclusively up to...

    9mm Sub-Sonic 115-124gr - is louder than most 147gr ammo?

    Lately I acquired a couple different .355s to play with - all of which are 115gr - 124gr. I've used 147gr bullets exclusively up to this point and got excellent suppressed results with an Octane can using both Unique & V-3N37. Very pleasant to the ear, fun to shoot etc ... That all changed...

    Flattest primer award

    Noticed these after doing a little range pickup... Had to share. I've never seen part of the primer pocket itself extrude out and flatten against the bolt face like the one on the left. The 'half moon' shaped piece of material you see next to "REM" is actually brass from inside the pocket...

    115-125gr SUBS in 9MM?

    I've loaded several thousand 147gr XTPs & cast coated pills at sub speeds using 3N37... just looking to find out if I'll run into cycling trouble trying to get the lighter 115-125gr .355s down around 1000fps? I've always bought the heaviest bullets available assuming they're absolutely...

    40gr bullets shooting well in a 1-7 twist?

    I'd love to hear from any of you having success with any light-weight .224 diameter bullets (40gr or less) - shooting well in a 1-7 twist barrel... and I guess I would vaguely define that as; not blowing up en route to target & 1moa or better. I'd like to try and do some varminting this...

    Disappointed in my purchase of receivers 'on sale'.....

    So I recently made a purchase of some lowers that were listed as 'on sale' with no mention as to the sale price reflecting blemishes. All 3 that I purchased have this same unfinished forge line. Also, the tremendous spread between the serial numbers was odd. 1800 - 3600 - 10200...

    Where's all the Hornady .224 35gr NTX bullets?

    Has anyone even laid eyes on a box of these this year? They are by far THE toughest bullet I've ever tried to buy in ANY caliber - ever. I've had email notifications set up at a half-dozen online retailers since LAST YEAR. Starting to think they're exclusively manufactured for use in...

    TulAmmo KVB-223 primers in the 300BLK

    I just recently ran out of CCI450s. Not too excited about ordering more right now...I need to try and start utilizing these Tula primers I've got on hand. Is anyone using these non-magnum KVB-223s in their 300 blk? I use H110, A1680, and Lil'gun. Hoping to hear if anyone is having success...
