    Does Tulammo not go by SAAMI specs?

    I too have shot thousands of tula x39, 5.45, 9mm, .223, 54r and have never had a problems. I have seen people have problems with it sticking in chambers of ARs, but I think that is more of the coating on the outside of the round. In my M&P sport I have tested shooting 2 mags of tula and then...

    Army opposes legislation to release surplus pistols to CMP?

    How exactly is a full size .45 more conceal-able than the compacts and sub compacts that line the shelves of the thousands of gun stores around the country?

    Hornady LnL not EZ-jecting.

    Thanks for the replies. I am going to give Hornady a call and see what they can do for me regarding the shell plate. If theres nothing they can do, I will try my luck with the modification walk along suggested. Thanks again.

    Hornady LnL not EZ-jecting.

    It is the #1plate sorry I forgot to add a picture. I thought maybe it was because the brass was really dirty, but it even happens with clean brass. I have the little bump it hits to eject it well lubed. I have tried to polish it with steel wool but no difference achieved. I thought about the...

    Hornady LnL not EZ-jecting.

    Hi, I keep running into a ejecting problem on my LnL while depriming brass. I have the shell plate as snug as possible, the brass will eject a few and get stuck on a few. All are same headstamp from same year, TAA 01. At first I thought maybe the brass was the issue, so I tried some hornady...

    bullet puller advice

    I will give another +1 for the Hornady collet puller. I went the cheap with the Frankford hammer type puller and it gave tons of trouble trying to consistently pull .223 bullets. I also was not fond of pounding a hammer on a wood block or resetting the round when it slipped through the collet...

    M&P 15 Sport reliability

    Like others have stated, it is a solid rifle. I have somewhere near 4,000 rounds into mine with 1500 being fired between a cleaning. It was wolf and Tula. The only time I have a problem will be a bad primer or mag issue. Buy with confidence. I have a Burris pepr mount and 6-18 scope and it is...

    chamfer & deburring tool in power drill

    Thank you everyone for your suggestions, that Sinclair one looks exactly like the tool I was thinking of. Have any of you tried the hornady deburr/chamfer tool with it? Or does it need the inset like the rcbs tool for the set screw to lock onto?

    chamfer & deburring tool in power drill

    I've got the daunting task of trimming, deburring, and chamfering roughly 3,500 223/5.56 and 2,900 7.62x51brass. I have already ordered a drill adapter for the trimmer to make my life a little easier, now I am looking for a chamfer and deburr tool that can also fit in a drill. I have the RCBS...

    Do you personalize your guns?

    Where I live the only reasonable distanced outdoor range opens 2 days a month so I go for 2 8hour days. Does the sweat soaked into the stock (South Florida heat) and the blood from my thumb in the magazine count as customizing?

    Milsurps at the public gun range

    I usually get scoffed at by most for the Yugo SKS, but when I bring the Fin M39 with the "tiger stripe" they will come look over the stock. every time they pick it up, they have the look like their picking up a bag of concrete.

    harbor freight rock tumbler (used for AS tumbling)

    Thanks for all the replies. I did actually go out and buy one the day after this post because the posts I read confirmed what I thought already. I have used it pretty much nonstop for almost a month. The only problem I had so far was it kept tripping the gfi in the garage but that may have been...

    gouge marks in die

    Hi, I have a month old redding .308 FL die that has scratches on the inside. I just noticed today when I changed to my .223 die for some depriming. I have went over some cases that I already preped and SS tumbled but found no scratches. Should I be concerned? It is past the 30 day return.

    Scale Calibration Weights Necessary?

    I bought check weights to give me peace of mind. I'd rather be sure than have something drastic happen that could be prevented by spending $20 and knowing for sure.

    Rossi Ranch Hand SBR'd and Suppressed

    I've always wanted to do the same with that lever but never got the money or time and ammo price put it out of range for me. Now that I've got all my reloading equipment setup I have started to save again for it. Maybe as a hog rifle since WMAs now allow suppressed rifles now. good job.

    harbor freight rock tumbler (used for AS tumbling)

    Thanks for the replies. I guess I will go out and get one as everything I've read thus far has SS tumbling looking like the better option than walnut/corn cob or ultra sonic cleaning. I could careless about how shiny the outside looks as long as it gets primer pocket/inside clean. The harbor...

    harbor freight rock tumbler (used for AS tumbling)

    I have seen this on a few different forums used for tumbling with SS media. It holds 3lbs in each drum. So I would guess 1lb SS media, 1/2 lb solution, 1 1/2 lb brass? Here is the tumbler Anyone have experience with this? I have heard the only flaw is the belts (6are included) and this...
