Thanks, splattergun! I started searching for Speer .308 165 grain SP-BT bullets that you mentioned and found them. They look just like the bullets that I reloaded. I'm going to order a couple hundred and get to loading. Thanks again for the tip splattergun.

That's the 1st question that I asked my son - if there were any unfired cartridges left. None, he'd shot every one. I remember what they looked like and they looked just like an old Remington Core-Lokt bullet with the small lead tip and copper jacket. What I don't know is if Core-Lokt...

I reloaded several boxes of minimum recoil 163 gr. SP-BT .308s for my son's T/C pistol last year and they turned out to be the most accurate in his handgun by far. He wants me to reload the used brass with that same formula but when I printed the labels I wrote "163 gr. SP-BT". If I know more...

I can see absolutely NO good reason for FMJ as 'carry' ammo. It penetrates walls & punches little tiny holes through body cavities without much real stopping power. One reply was "I do 'cause it feeds through my gun while HP's don't." Then get a D-E-P-E-N-D-A-B-L-E handgun...

Hunters carry loose rounds in their pockets all of the time and I have NEVER heard a story of an accidental explosion.

I'd do exactly what you did...................... In fact, it happened to me just 3 weeks ago except I never saw who left their rifle at the range. It was there when I arrived. I shot for 3 hours or more and he never showed so I, too, called the club Pres., Vice pres. and the club...

Good advice so far ... but - As important as bullet weight is bullet makeup. A thicker copper jacketed bullet will create more pressure than a thin copper jacketed bullet than an all-lead bullet. Stay with the same type of bullet that the recipe calls for.......... and start 5% low and...

YES! The accu-stock is definately worth the extra $40 !! The base stock that Savage has is probably fine for general plinking but before you know it, you'll be looking at targets at 100 - 200 yds and wondering why you have those pesky flyers. It could be due to uneven preasure on the...

I'm sorry for the loss of your cherished gift. My late dad gave me his Remington Model 24 .22 (Shorts only) rifle when I was 7 (56 long years ago) and I loved that rifle. My son inherited from me when he was 6 or 7 (30 years ago) and cherishes it, also. It can't be replaced or restored...

The .30-30 is a great deer rifle and with the introduction of Hornady's LeveRevolution plastic-tipped ammo, this rifle can reach out to 200 or maybe ever 250 yards with enough gust-o to put down a deer humanely. Watch out for inaccurate .30-30's. There are many of them out there. I'm talking...

The Redfields are rather new so few will have had a chance to compare these against the Vortex. I see that you've picked 2 50mm objective scopes so that should help in low light conditions. Unfortunately, few mfg'rs publish their data on light transmission so it's extremely hard to know...

On those that ou list that are still in production... are you looking at NIB or "gently used"?

I know it's legal but why not put something orange in the end of the barrel to resemble a toy rifle? I'd carry it that way just to see what the reaction is. My friends/relatives probably wouldn't react much at all but people surprise me at times!

This thread keeps on surfacing year after year.................. & I love it! I look through as many as I can until my sides start hurting.

Ya - It looks like ammo prices have lighted up for now just as primers and powder has. These ARE the good ol' days!

My personal gripe is the phrase, "It'll shoot 1/2 MOA all day long......... as long as I do my part." I will almost always cry B.S. on those comments unless the comment is backed up with targets & competition credentials. I shoot 300 meter F-class and 3-position competition every month...

59% against 41% For open carry I thought FL was the "land of the retired folks". Older folks should have been in several of our wars and shouldn't be afraid of guns. Go figure.

So many people gripe, complain and try to get removed from jury duty. I do everything I can to get chosen for jury duty but never have. I'm a registered voter, a licensed driver with the Motor Vehicle Dept. & I own a home so I'm on the tax rolls. I've never been picked and I've been eligable...

Sounds like a good job that you have. Wish I lived closer to gun producing factory so I could get a tour. I'm not far from Federal Cartridge, however, and have seen the inside of that.

I totally disagree! I believe that the OP did exactly the right thing and that the counter folks learned a valuable lesson. That is : If you play with the merchandise and break it, it'll be harder to sell.
