    Can change factory 9mm FMJ with JHP bullets?

    This discussion is veering off to a domain that isn't within the scope of my initial query. Since some people brought up a few concepts that put this whole line of questioning into questioning :-) I just have to say that it was basically a query along the lines of when SHTF (and you can't buy...

    Can change factory 9mm FMJ with JHP bullets?

    OK, now I can see where it might not be legit to do this kind of swapping. Anyway, as I said, it is moot. I don't have the reloading equipment and it seems more hassle than it's worth. I can buy JHP. I have JHP. I just have way more FMJ than JHP and was wondering what it might entail, in case...

    Can change factory 9mm FMJ with JHP bullets?

    Honestly, I have no idea why doing this might not be "on the up and up" but anyway it seems like quite a bit of hassle, and I need those reloader presses. So, probably moot point for me. I am just asking as a matter of course out of curiosity, as I have FMJ factory ammo, but wondering how...

    Can change factory 9mm FMJ with JHP bullets?

    Folks - is it possible (safely) to change FMJ bullets on factory 9mm ammo to the same weight JHP bullets that, say, I purchase from a reloading supplier? (Bullet manufacturer)? I saw on TV (haha) some people use momentum to extract the bullet from a case by slapping some kind of stick device...

    Beretta 92A1 with P500 UNIVERSAL SIGHT TOOL?

    Hi folks - instead of giving my gun to the rather incompetent LGS folks (I don't say that lightly) I just want to DIY and put Trijicons on my 92A1. Anyone used the P500 UNIVERSAL SIGHT TOOL to do the sights? (Front and rear)? Seems rather pricey with the full kit being some $250 (includes...

    Apologies for 22LR question(s) but... CCI Stingers, 22 WMR, Short Rifle???

    What's a bolt buffer? Is that like the buffer tube in the AR? I didn't notice I have one (or you mean the springs on the guide rods?) Right now looks like I might be shopping for CCI Standard and High Velocity 22LR. Question: Are these just plinking rounds or what? I am not familiar with any...

    Apologies for 22LR question(s) but... CCI Stingers, 22 WMR, Short Rifle???

    Thanks WNTFW on the insight for bulk ammo. Will consider. I am headed to the LGS to pick up a brick or two this weekend. See what they have.

    Apologies for 22LR question(s) but... CCI Stingers, 22 WMR, Short Rifle???

    OK thanks; I will start by experimenting with 36 and 40 grains. (I have/had zero frame of reference for bullet weight for 22LR, so thanks for this.) FTF question: I had not had very good previous experience (over the years shooting other 22LR guns) on 22LR feeding; I assume those 30 round mags...

    Apologies for 22LR question(s) but... CCI Stingers, 22 WMR, Short Rifle???

    Hello everyone, I tried searching and searching around here for "Stinger" and "22LR" but... not really sure about the search results. Anyway, I ended up getting yet-another-gun, a 22LR. Remington 597 Yellow Jacket. I scoped it with a simple 9x and got a couple extra 10 mags. GOALS...

    Will this magazine fit the Remy 597 22LR?

    Thanks everyone. Just got a few. My first 22LR (as an owner; shot many 10/22 before).

    .223 bolt action 1:8 to match with my AR?

    With the option to time travel I am sure we can open up another whole new thread to discuss exactly what we should get :-)

    .223 bolt action 1:8 to match with my AR?

    Thanks but seems like the Mossberg models are all laminate. I wanted synthetic + SS.

    .223 bolt action 1:8 to match with my AR?

    Thanks guys, I probably will keep 5.56 for the AR and use the 223 on the bolt. I will check with the LGS on the rifles you have all mentioned.

    .223 bolt action 1:8 to match with my AR?

    Thinking of getting a (good quality) bolt gun with the same 1:8 twist as my AR so I can just standardize on the same .223 ammo. What is the optimal length I should go for to reach maximum range for the .223? And what might be (a ballpark for) that max effective range with I suppose the heaviest...
