    Question about buy/sell and what is normal

    Question about buy/sell and what is normal

    I don't really have that much to sell really and I figured I would never find a LR for less than the price of a car.

    Question about buy/sell and what is normal

    Appreciate it! I've had gunbroker accout for awhile. Maybe I'll list on there, or wait until magnetospeed runs out again. I'm not in really big hurry, world be nice to sell it free up some cash

    Question about buy/sell and what is normal

    Is there a way to sell without being a supporter? I don't really have extra money right now to sign up for the paid membership. I have a brand new magnetospeed I bought from opticsplanet and I was able to pick up a labradar at a steal. Think I might look like Mr overkill at the range with both...

    7.62x54r StaBall and 168gr tmk

    I love shooting unique pieces. Sorry missed the message, had water damage the first week of December and some medication to get my blood sugar under control was like injections of death.

    7.62x54r StaBall and 168gr tmk

    I didn't take that personally. Sorry playing catch up, my kid gave me some disease from school. I've been in slow noting for a week now. I think the only thing I would have done differently was also build a hex receiver along with the rounded one I have, just to see how much more the hex could...

    Yes StaBall match, should go to the range soon now the chrono showed up. I'm going to do some 308 also. Someday, if I ever get the money I would love to have an SVD. Got to shoot one in the army with the Estonia guys that were attached to us. It was pretty awesome.

    7.62x54r StaBall and 168gr tmk

    Thanks Tommy boy and bandit320, if I can find some varget I'll try those. I was using sierra HPBT, so have quite a few 168 and 174 of 175, not looking at my bullets right now. Thought I would try the TMK just to see. From what I can tell the StaBall has similar burn rates to varget, or an i...

    7.62x54r StaBall and 168gr tmk

    No not in a dumpster. Friend of mine that was Cav gave to me for my birthday many moons ago. It did shoot like garbage until I slugged my bore. It was .311, the factory ammo actually loads .308 bullets. I'm surprised I ever hit anything with it before I started loading .311. Then when...

    7.62x54r StaBall and 168gr tmk

    I love it, got my first antelope with it after the rebarrel with garbage 150gr steel. Really want to see if it can get to 1,000

    7.62x54r StaBall and 168gr tmk

    Hello, I'm trying to see if anyone has tried the StaBall with the 7.62x54r? I had a barrel made for my nagant years ago, 24" benchmark barrel, 1-10 twist. Chambered for the 7.62x54r case and .308 Dia bore. I wanted to try the StaBall with the 168gr sierra tipped matchkings for the BC. I'm...
