    DIY Rear Monopod

    I did something similar, only is used a chunk from a C-clamp that had a quick release button. I tried plasti dip on the foot, but it rubbed off way too easily. So far I am pretty satisfied with the results.

    Does anyone offer 50bmg case annealing?

    At the moment, none, they are all loaded. I would rather find a guy before I need him. I plan to end up needing runs of 400(ish) at a go.

    Does anyone offer 50bmg case annealing?

    I didn't turn up anything with a quick search, does anyone offer 50bmg case annealing as a service? My cases are on their third reload, probably time for it.

    Suppressors Are there any good over the barrel suppressors being sold?

    I've read somewhere that reflex supressors have first round "Pop" issues. It's on my "To Do" list to try one as a form 1.

    Savage Axis .308 Extended Magazines?

    Hehe, I'm pretty sure the first guy from Ohio (me) quit making them and sold all his stock. Too much work for minimal reward. There is another guy in the works , apparently from Ohio as well (Huh, weird), we'll see what comes. He has a website, http://www.snydermags.com You could always try...

    trim and chamfer cases... really fast. :)

    This might be of some use: I had my kid brother weld four big beads on my lee lock ring. It took just a few seconds with the MIG, and made it super easy to tighten the lock ring. I did my stuff on a drill press, case holder in the vice and cutter in the drill chuck. I just let the drill...

    Cargo Parachute

    Got kids? Put a box fan in one corner, and just turn 'em loose. It turns into an inflated tent/fort/crazy play area. Which reminds me, I haven't done that in a while, should be fun.

    Looking for a replacement 9mm powder, any suggestions.

    I cannot for the life of me find my usual HS-6, and I've finally run out of 9mm. I have all the other components, just no powder. I load using a dillon 650, and HS-6 always metered very well, so I'm looking for something similar. Anyone have any recommendations that are currently available?

    Protective booties for bipod feet?

    Y'all might laugh at the thread, but on my Izzy 1919a6, I put my kids infant shoes on the bipod feet. Perfect fit, and it kept the steel "Feet" from sliding all over the place.. The wife was amused, which is always a bonus.

    Savage Axis/Edge 10 Round High Capacity Magazine..

    Shoot me a PM with your email address, and I can send you some work in progress pictures. The tricky part is getting the follower to feed (in my opinion) and it is frustrating as all get out when the mag fails to feed at the range. That said, it sure is nice when it works, and I like the...

    Range Report How far can a .30 ricochet travel? HELP

    After playing with a belt fed and a lot of tracers... The bounces tend to go farther than you would ever imagine. No matter what caliber or how much energy it might or might not have, people get pissed when bullets land nearby. Plus, it might not have been a richoche. I am always amazed by...

    Rifle Scopes Super Sniper 'fuzzy' at 9x?

    I had a similar issue on my 20x, (fixed), at longer ranges the reticle would go fuzzy on me. It turned out to be user error. My brother showed me a trick he picked up: adjust the reticle focus while looking at a clear blue sky. No clouds, nothing but blue. The story goes that makes your eye...

    Savage Axis/Edge 10 Round High Capacity Magazine..

    well, for all those interested, z71rat only really made them in .308, but due to new laws where he lives, he was forced out of business. I stated making copies, but my business partners wandered off, and it was not worth the time and effort on my part to continue. So, for right now, the best...

    Savage Axis/Edge 10 Round High Capacity Magazine..

    For those currently doing business with me, I got a bit banged up over the weekend (rappelling, but nothing serious), so I'm moving REAL slow. Right now everything I have is sold pending funds. If the funds do not show up in a week, I'll move to the next guy on the list. The Post office...

    Post anything that has helped you as a reloader!

    A dedicated reloading databook, instead of keeping load data on the box-tops (I do both now), RCBS lube in a zip-lock baggie, shake, then prep using a RCBS lube die and a dillon trimmer, What used to take hours now takes 30 mins. I don't think I load for as much accuracy as some of y'all, but...
