I think he means bullets in bulk run $150 per 1k and not the cost for loaded ammo. Powder Valley has Hornady 75 grain BTHP match at ~$292/2k and $584/4k.
I wet tumble with pins. Dry in oven @190 until paper underneath is dry.
I also dip my cases in mica before seating bullets. You can buy it in bulk (used for cosmetics) real cheap compared to graphite and just dip the necks into a small container. I then wipe down the outside of the cases...
Playing with seating depth on Sunday. 100yds with my AI AEIII. Load details on the picture. People in adjacent lanes were shooting pistols, so lots of scatter shots on my target from them or from hits on adjacent steel. But I was happy with the results and knew when I pulled a shot due to...
For state specific questions, you are better off asking these types of questions on state specific boards (e.g. calguns.net).
For mag conversions, the law only states that is must be permanent. What constitutes a "permanent" change is obviously open to some interpretation and uncertainty...
Yep, they were GM210M and GM215M, which is what I picked up as well. They are often shorthand referenced as 210M and 215M. This is opposed to the short handed designation of just 210 and 215 for the blue box/champion versions.
Thanks! Ordered some of both.
Site had 87flat code for $5 shipping (rather than the $20) if order was at least $99.
With AJ 10% and previously purchased gift cards at a 20% discount, made out well.
I have never been able to get my Trim-it 2 to evenly trim and chamfer. It always was off. And I spent hours trying, watching vids on set-up, and following their instructions. It never cut/chamfered evenly, so I gave up.
Just a FYI, the D&H Indus. SR-25 patterned mags that Brownells sells do not accommodate the same COAL rounds like true KAC mags. I did a side-by-side comparison and the D&H mags will take smaller COAL rounds. If you want to accommodate larger size rounds, you have to pay for the KAC (or Larue...
You can purchase 10 round KAC mags. They are expensive. I picked up a 10 round mag from Tombstone Tactical. It was $95 and it was special ordered from KAC. Took about 3 months to receive it. I also got a 5 round mag. The 5 round version is a modified 20 rounder.
Gotta love Cali and its...
ammoseek.com is another good tool to search for ammo.
The deals are out there. I think PSA's sale on 168 gr FGMM is over (it was $15.99 a box w/ free shipping with 10 or more boxes). Lots of forums post deals, you just have to be on the lookout.
I have had great service from them as well.
Picked up an Evolution chassis second hand, but minus the action screws for my R700. Called XLR and they sent me out a set gratis. Nice to find CS support for their products even though I was not the original purchaser!
My R700 as well as ARs love that ammo -- and it is cheap as well. Another gem is Fiocchi 50gr VMAX. Another cheap factory round that performs very nicely.
