    80 yrs old surplus ammo!

    I picked up some 8mm Mauser brass at the range, headstamp BT3 40, Yugo made in 1940, appears Century is selling them now, must have found another cave somewhere. The brass looks pretty good. I don't have an 8mm, I doubt I will shoot ammo this old if I have one! What do you guys do when shooting...

    M-16 Forward Assist ... did you need it?

    I used it. On a 7.62x39 AR. It was a PSA 7.62x39 Upper, when new, I had missed fires, I thought it was firing pin but it has an enhanced firing pin already, I thought it was hammer spring and put on an extra power hammer spring, neither worked. I sent it back to PSA and PSA replaced the BCG and...

    Reloading 7.62x39

    I reload for 7.62x39 and 300BLK, I like 7.62x39 much better that I can use regular rifle power and seems more accurate.

    Is there a way to reduce an ar ejection distance?

    I stick a rubber pad that you can find at stores used to protect furniture. It soften the ejection and protect brass from denting.

    To buy or not to buy: Beretta M12 vs BM59 vs CX4

    Is BM59 still in production? $720 is an amazing price. Cost 1K+ in US and not factory guns.

    Lee sizing die trouble

    I had the same issue with my Lee 308 sizing die that the pin got pulled out of the die on reverse stroke, I do lube inside, I had to polish the expander "ball" to reduce the diameter by about .002" to make sure it works every time. Not all cases does it, maybe some cases have thicker wall. It is...

    RCBS Rock Chucker kit on sale, MidSouth

    What does Rock Chucker do above aluminum framed Partner at 1/2 the price? RCBS has Life Time warranty. I have Partner, choose it for the lighter weight/portability, I have it mounted on a stand that I can move it around. I only load up to 308/30-06.

    Parallax Adjustment On Scopes Without AO

    People do that to use a regular scope on air rifles shooting at 10-30 yds. I have done that on a few scopes. Turn the front lense out to shoot short distance. At low magnification, such as 4X, should be fine if shooting at 50 yds. When you break the seal to turn the lense, moisture intrusion may...

    Chrony is dead!

    I hit my F1 with a .177 pellet gun 600 fps and it survived! Left a dent on the sensor casing. I put a steel plate to protect the sensor after the incident.

    Sig p225

    "I spent $375 for my P6" AIMS was selling it $250, I didn't get one but couples years later I bought it from a local FTF at $250. It is a great shooter, factory mag is expensive but ProMag works in my P6. "P6 has an even tougher trigger". Double action is heavy but fine in single action.

    CETME builders?

    I actually had a G3 part kit, a tig welder but switched to build FALs after I finished my 2 Romanian AK builds, sold my G3 kit and tig welder when I lost my job many years ago. Now seeing the CETME part kits are still cheap made me itchy again! I actually had a CETME many years ago, but sold it...

    CETME builders?

    CETME C part kits in 308 are still plenty and rather cheap but seems like not many builders out there these days. Century stop selling CETME either. Any reasons? Once popular but I decided to pass thinking parts will be getting hard to find, 10+ years passed, part kits still plenty and cheap...

    Stick powders.....do they settle much?

    I reload range pick up brass and I try to avoid compressed load, unless I step up the load and use the same brass/projectile when stepping up. There is variation on brass internal capacities among different brands, can be significant. The reloading data lists the brass and pojectile used, unless...

    Bore condition in 100 ATR (VIDEO)

    Agree. It is more like fouling, dried lubricant, grease if in storage for a long time. Clean it up first. I like ATR! top open receiver, blind staggered feed box feeder, no mag to mess with, like the good old Savage. Why they don't make it anymore.:(

    Armscor m80

    But ZQI says 1 MOA at 100 yds on the box!:) ZQI does not shoot well in my bolt guns but about the same as other surplus ammo in my semi autos. ZQI is Turkey not Armscor.
