    What happened here? Case blew up, magazine disintegrated

    It's been so long I can't remember what my buddy did with the left over ammo. Hopefully the Sheriffs can help you destroy the ammo.

    What happened here? Case blew up, magazine disintegrated

    Yeah I should of mentioned what questions they'd ask you. My buddy called them and their first question was "Are you okay?". I'd keep all records and keep all POC names. They were real good with my buddy. We both worked in ammunition/ firearms manufacturing so we spoke on what we knew. I'd just...

    My buddy had that happen with a 17 Mach 2.

    What happened here? Case blew up, magazine disintegrated

    I'd contact CCI about that. It's possible there was a double charge of primer compound there. Or like mentioned earlier a compromised case.

    Does anyone else get frustrated reloading

    That was me trying to take a picatinny rail off a rifle. Only to find out the smith I used to use red locktite on the screws and made a .010" bed of red locktite under the rail.

    Does anyone else get frustrated reloading

    I haven't gotten frustrated from reloading. But reloading is a meticulous mechanical skill, and boy I've gotten pretty frustrated doing other mechanical work. I've learned to walk away and give myself a break when I get frustrated. Otherwise things can go wrong for me pretty fast lol. So you're...

    88 eld-m in .223 bolt gun

    I'd like to try the 88's but my Weatherby Obsidian is only 1-8" twist. But the 80gr ELDMs seem to shoot fine out to 800 yards so far.

    88 eld-m in .223 bolt gun

    All I can say is even at 2700 fps out of my AR the 75gr ELDM accounted for a badger at 496 yards. It hits hard too.

    Hunting & Fishing Early Sagerat hunting

    I started rat season early this year. They've been out for almost two months now here. I won't hunt the hard, I usually wait for that until the babies are out. Here's a near miss form yesterday using my Glock 23 open sights. I haven't even mounted my steel sights yet because this pistol seems...

    Trudeau’s Canada: Canadian Police Advise Leaving Car Keys in Front Door to Deter Break-Ins and Minimize Conflict with Thieves.

    They know what's best. Just think of it like leaving milk and cookies out for Santa.

    .308 Winchester

    I remember asking you on how to reload these cases, but they were out of stock when I went to order. We need a sticky thread or whatever it's called on how to use the hybrid cases.

    .308 Winchester

    I mainly shoot 168 gr varieties in my PSS. I'll keep the barrel on it since it still produces good groups. I just got some Alpha srp brass for my 308 win, 7-08, and 260 AI. I'll most likely concentrate my efforts on the 260 AI for the upcoming year. The coyotes are plentiful, and my focus is on...

    ISO Best AR15 Barrel

    I was considering a 20 Practical and forgot about it until you mentioned a 204. Yeah a 20 cal might be a better option. But for out to only 300 yards a .223/5.56 with a 53 gr vmax will suffice. Any AR that shoots close to 1 moa will do the job out to 300 yards for a coyote.

    .308 Winchester

    My PSS factory barrel has probably over 10k rounds down it's tube. I'd change the barrel but the family gifted it to me when I got out of the Army in 91. I'd rather have a 1-10" twist barrel but my barrel still shoot good. And there a bit of sentimental value there.

    .308 Winchester

    I opted for a 260 AI rather than the 6.5 CM. I'm old so I'm biased against it lol. It's a fine round I just tired of the ignorant claims around it. Plus I have a ton of 308 win brass so in a pinch I can neck them down to 260 rem or 7-08.
