    In all honesty I think we’ve chronied maybe 10rds, was around 60fps. I would imagine the super glue seal had some of that to do with it. And MOA….well let’s just say if we could hit the 12” plate at 350yds the intended target would be a cake walk. The intended purpose of this rifle was shear...

    Mike stated that the 50 primers don’t have the ignition to light the powder fast enough. Hence why it is recommended adding black powder or pistol and a wad to help ignition. No light strikes on the m36a2 primers. No failure to ignite in M36a2 primers. We had an issue with large pistol magnum...

    Well those CCi’s did fine in Barrett, hand loaded ammo. They looked like normal strikes in the Anzio, after ignition, but with the 2 hang fires which I’m assuming cause we didn’t add either some black powder or pistol powder with some cotton weird stuff I decided not to fire anymore. That and...

    I was using some CCI primers that I use in reloading 50bmg. Current batch fired fine in every 50bmg I loaded for the range. Bushing brass, 869 powder that Mike loaded up here at the shop that were coming undone. So I pulled several rounds, split the powder and reloaded.. Blue practice bullet...

    Ya I get those 2 primers mixed up. I tried a few of the 50bushed and didn’t have much success and on 2 of them it was downright scary. Hang fire like 3secs later. That wasn’t fun in a 20mm pushing a 1650gr projectile at 2900fps. So I didn’t pursue that type of primer.

    I have 2 of the Anzios, about 600rds of his “match” bullets. The rifles are very niche, good talking piece and fun to watch when people shoot them. Both of mine are suppressed. For anyone to actually be able to shoot under an 1” with those “match” grade bullets was probably only shoot 1 bullet...

    Who makes a decapping die for the 375? Mighty did but from what I’ve read stopped making them.
