Wooden case of two Spam cans of HXP-69 M2 Ball .30-06. Total 480 rounds in cartons. Lot no. 1138. $720 for the whole case. $400 per can of you want it split up. Free delivery or meet you halfway anywhere from Kanab to Beaver. In St. George. Otherwise, case says it’s 41 lbs (I will confirm)...
This one looks better than what the CMP describes as their best non-auction grade, "Service Grade" SN in the 1.8 million range. Remington-Rand frame and slide. All proper markings including inspection/acceptance stamp of Lt. Col. Frank J. Atwood (RJA) who was on duty in that area from 1942 to...
We all know the quality of these units. See pics. SFP, MOA/MOA, not illuminated. Vortex lens covered included. No shipping needed for FTF cash in southwest Utah, Beaver to Kanab and even Beaver Dam AZ. Beyond that, we'll have to talk about delivery or just ship it, insured.
This: Norma USA TAC-22 Ammo 22 Long Rifle 40 Grain Lead Round Nose Subsonic Pennies less than $60 for a brick of .22 LR!?!?!?!?!?!? If this is how the shortage is "easing", I want no part of it. What's so special about this ammo? Last stuff I got was match stuff (SK Rifle Match) for...
Cross-post, no replies yet in another forum. Although Colt abandoned the matching angled recoil spring plug and barrel bushing in their Gold Cups years and years ago, I'm wondering just how much that helped accuracy? It just looks and feels like a great way to use spring pre-loading to...
Everything here is still showing up only once a week, if that, at local retailers instead of 1-3x/week depending on what they are ordering. What they receive is up from 1/3 of usual to about 1/2 the usual number of cartons per shipment. It's all gone in an hour or two. About three...
And accuracy slipped down again at the same time. 22-inch barrel, been using this load for years and changing powder lots had stabilized a downward trend from 2580 down to 2540 fps at about the same temperatures on various shooting sessions. Now I'm getting 2650 and 1.3 to 1.6 inch groups...
I've enjoyed stunning reliability lot-to-lot consistency of 4064 for almost exactly 30 years now, but I used up the last of some Varget a few months ago and am now cycling through that ammo (load development quickly found decent accuracy and duplicate velocity with my 4064 load--and it hits...
Re-read the bullet prep/sort/processing post AND thread in the on-line book or whatever you want to call it. So, for various calibers, just how much difference in point of impact, or change in 5-round group size, will a 0.5-grain/0.323994550000002 gram change or range in bullet weight give us...
Has anyone tested or have any knowledge of what effects, and how much of an effect if there is one, out of square caseheads can have on accuracy in the M14-pattern rifle? I ask because a few months ago, I stumbled across a pair of old articles in the American Rifleman by Creighton Audette...
When a rifle has a flash suppressor or muzzle brake installed, does one's search for an OBT load require that the calculations go to the end of the barrel length only, or to the end of the muzzle device? And is using the OBT barrel time charts and QuickLOAD calculations/predictions even of any...
I'm almost ready to drink the DI Kool-Aid and plan for a .308 or 6.5 Creedmoor AR rifle for use out to 1,000 yards. But I'm an old Service Rifle shooter who also values the ability to actually carry a rifle, I'd really like to have the tonnage of the piece come in about 10 pounds or less empty...
I just spent another half-hour tinkering with a new Kimber 4-inch Tac II, which is quite a beautiful gun and a delight to shoot. But since it cost something like $1,100 bucks, I'm quite disappointed that the cliches from the 1970s and '80s still seem to be true: Spend big bucks on a .45 and you...
I just remembered a little cheap trick from my smallbore days--some coaches reported getting Eley 10x/RWS R50 accuracy out of lesser brands of ammo by sorting them by weight. Anyone try that with centerfire reloads? Seems to me that would be quicker and easier than sorting the cases first and...
I just re-tested one brand of primers and not only was the accuracy abysmal again (well, actually WORSE than before for a few groups), but the ES on velocity was like 71 and 91 fps. That's what I get from ammo loaded on a progressive! Dillon measure (okay, it *was* 748 but that load still shot...
Don't laugh too much. I'm an old iron sight guy who is just beginning to warm up to optics. Zeroing turrets is nice, but I still miss running up 6 clicks from the bottom and otherwise knowing exactly where I started from and where I am... Anyway, I thought I heard someone say something once...
I know about the other way, STANAG mags can feed only about 5 rounds of Grendel (BTDT for grins & giggles), but what happens if you have a Grendel mag full of 5.56?? In a 5.56 rifle/carbine, of course!
I'm taking a second stab at developing a Varget load for an M1A, this time using 178-gr A-Max bullets. Things are strange and usually accuracy outright sucks. Like 2-3 MOA sucks, out of a rifle that performs right at 1 MOA or better. Ran some 3-round tests and the lowest charge weight chrono'd...
My sources from years ago defined the trans-sonic zone as from Mach 1.2 to Mach 0.8. It explained rather nicely a reported "mystery" of less wind drift with 1100 fps heavy bullet loads as published by some handgun silhouette shooter (IHMSA, IIRC). Based on the loads being compared, this old...
. . . without buying a bedding kit? I have projects of various sorts, including a bedding job, using in-stock epoxy. Ran out of what came with the Brownell's kit long ago. Where do I find just the release agent, and not just some silly silicone spray junk that's good only for molding...
