I don't use magnum unless the load books call for it....certainly I use SR primers for the 30 carbine with H110 and shotgun primers for 410 shotshells.
So this came free in a previous order of AR stuff and it's been driving me nuts; what is it or what is it for? My best guess was a bottle cap opener, but it seems ill-suited and I don't know why it has two slots and the huge ring on the other end. Can't find it on the www.tacfunusa.com...
I thought baffle strikes would tear up the suppressor? Like catastrophically. Am I wrong there? Is everyone saying it could be just glancing off a baffle and making it out with only a little deviation?
I had a little fright/puzzlement last Sunday. Went to plink with a Ruger 10/22 that is mostly stock; it's mounted with a Leupold 3-9X40 VX1 on Talley 10/22 mounts. It also has a Tacticool threaded adaptor on the front sight. It normally shoots about 1.5 MOA at 50 yards with CCI Standard. It...
Shotgun reloaders: Just wondering why I can't keep the H110 in the plastic MEC bottle instead of the plastic Hodgdon bottle? Detached from the press and capped with the original MEC cap of course. I can buy spare MEC bottles for around $12 and it just seems easier in the long run to not be...
Thanks everyone for the suggestions and help. Cycling through the stations got me to 14.8 grains average with the #12A bushing, so I went with it and didn't blow myself up; in fact, the loads seemed a little wimpy. I may up it to that #13 and it's 17.0 grain throw....I'm slightly low on the...
Okay, my first attempts at reloading 410 are not going smooth. Two questions please:
Q1) I have Fiocchi 410 shells, Cheddite 209 primers, CB wads, and planned to use H110 powder. I need a drop of 15.7-16.0 grains H110. My MEC Jr. 600 Mark 5 410 loader came with #10, #11, and #12 MEC...
After all this....I found that ASKA Arms mags (or something like that) from United Sporting Arms in Choctaw OK fits the 2.5" Winchester 410 shells....and locks tight in the BCA upper. Life would have been so much easier if I'd just found these mags to begin with. Do yourself a favor; don't...
A science behind my choices? Given the number of times I've done the "scope dance" between rifles...."Get a better one for this rifle." "Oh, the old scope for that rifle is better than the one on this one, better switch them out." And so on down the line. So I severely doubt I've had any...
Looking at the post above and laughing. I discovered yesterday that none of the recent "large format" annuals have loads for 32ACP or 32S&W Long. Last one that did was the 2021 smaller version. What the heck, Hodgdon?
