    Who is the most historically significant SNIPER?

    Vasily Zaytsev. Killed 30+ German officers with a standard infantry rifle, then another 400ish with a rifle that had a 3.5 magnification and a god awful reticle using ball ammo, many of those were at the 800-1000 meter range, all in a matter of less than a year. He mastered the art of using what...

    7.62mm Nagant Brass

    The round on the right should have the bullet sitting almost flush with the casing in order for it to cycle in the revolver. The picture you have there is from a blog that describes , but is shown loaded for another gun that shoots 32-20. Here is another picture of what a loaded 7.62 Nagant...

    Its actually a really fun round. That is why you have people like myself and a few others here saying they are interested in the brass.

    7.62mm Nagant Brass

    Plenty of people reload both 7.62 Nagant and 7.62x54R. Unless you really have a lot you might be better off just selling it as is. Sugarbug seems to be interested. I would be interested in it if he is not. I do not currently reload for that caliber, but I have enough guns that shoot it so I should.

    If you could live any ware in the USA after Military retirement?

    Very difficult choice to make based on your criteria. I would have normally said Florida or Oregon. The problem is you have a few things in your ideal place to live that almost makes it a fantasy land. Everyplace you choose will have its pros and cons. To be an instructor may be difficult in a...

    What is the most Historically Significant Cartridge?

    Well everything ksthomas has stated I would have to agree with. I would also say 22 is pretty significant since so many people have learned, and many have been inspired by it. But since only one round can be picked I think that the 32 is very significant. Had the 7.92x33 for example never been...

    Rifle Porn - Proceed with caution!

    I will start off with this, I am only asking this question because I want to know, because there may be a chance that I have been walking around with a misunderstanding of 5R barrels, but isn't a 5R an 11.25 twist? I thought that is what made it so great and able to receive that designation. Thanks.

    Some questions on a type 99

    Like I said just keep it organized and separate. I know of a guys who used an etching machine on the base to help identify what something it. 30-06 brass is really good stuff to have, you can use it to make 7.7 Jap, 270 win and 8mm Mauser that I know of, not really sure if there are any other...

    Graf 175's?

    Looking to follow up on these bullets. Those who have tried them, what are you opinions? Food for thought about things that are under Graf's name, they do a lot of stuff with Hornady, such as produce ammunition for them. Still I am curious. Thanks.
