Hawkins Hunter Mag feeding issue???

Having feeding issues with Hunter magazine running 7-08. 308 feeds fine from this mag but the 7-08 is a no go. The first round feeds but all the others are taking a sharp nose dive into the front of the mag. Contacted Hawkins and sent mags back for evaluation to have them say that they are within spec and found no issues but also told me they did not have 7-08 to test with. FWIW, AICS mags feed flawlessly. What you guys think? https://share.icloud.com/photos/06dRwPA89VX4gD8toIsfxWiSg

Illegals robbing whores , and gun fights at Motel 6 in Garland TX , we'll leave the light on for ya !



Three bright shining vibrant utes started thier own crime spree, invaded a country , robbed fits whores and killed its agriculture workers . It’s almost like it’s a coordinated effort to destroy this nation by bringing in military aged males whom are prone to violence and death .

Won’t pass headspace gauge

Hey guys, I’m using a xl650 and set of LEE 224 Valkyrie factory dies, and I have the sizing/decaping die screwed all the way to the shelf plate and it will not bump the shoulder back at all to where it passes in a headspace gauge.
So there’s no more adjustment in the dye and it won’t go through headspace cage I’ll attach a picture for reference.
am I missing something obvious?

I haven’t annealed them yet, I guess this could be the problem but it would be nice to be able to control the shoulder bump a little more if needed.

$SOLD Shipped to FFL Conus.

Don’t need to sell and it’s my current primary match pistol. But I just don’t shoot pistol matches enough to justify keeping it and I need another long range scope. Open to trades for high end long range scopes (ATACR, Kahles, etc.). If you don’t have amazingly good feedback, don’t even offer trades. And I’m looking for specific scope models, so I’ll be picky with trades.

Short, Really Short 308

I'm going to build a lightweight shorty 308 in a chassis, probably an SBR but in the base case pistol. This is for 0-300 yard night hunting with a thermal. I've been very happy so far with the performance of 115 Bergers going 2,950fps out of my 16" AT barrel. Just getting tired of toting that chunk around.

So I'm trying to decide how short is too short. 12" comes to mind first. Reloader guy is telling me quickload predicted the following: 95% powder burn with my current velocity out of 16" barrel. 2740fps out of a 12" barrel with 92% powder burn. That drops me down from 1,110 ft/lb to 970ft/lb of energy at max 300 yard distance. Wondering if that equates to a lot less knock down power in the real world. TBAC recommends minimum barrel length of 14.5" for 308, so I'm also wrestling with potential damage to my can.

So what does the Hide think, anyone got experience with a 12" 308? Am I crazy for wanting to try it?

Range Hard Cases? Condition 1, Apache, or just Pelican?

Need to update and organize my garage sale of range gear from various small cases, a backpack, etc. No plans on flying with it, just range and back. Open to a soft case, though a hard one with wheels seems like the way to go. I've got the basic Costco black and yellow tubs with no wheels and they're nice, but I've broken a number of the lids before so need something decently sturdy.

I know something like the Pelican 1650 would probably work (though I might want the next size up.) Before I invest Pelican level money, what are people thoughts on the more affordable options out there? For example, the Harbor Freight Apache 5800 is less than half the price. I've also seen ads for these Condition 1 cases which seem interesting (but then again, possibly just Facebook/online ad spamming.) Or, any other brands, options? Goal would be mags, range supplies, ammo, belt, PC if I'm feeling LARP-y, eyes/ears, admin, etc.


I've got a Pelican 1750 for one rifle and it's bombproof. I got one of the smaller Pelican Vaults for handguns and it's decent, but I should have gotten something larger. So a small concern is also buying too small again. Would rather have a little extra space than not.
