How can this be bad for manufacturers ? Instead of having stock in a warehouse , all future orders are sold before even produced . I hardly see a problem there for the ammo or gun manufacturers , just profits . All Gov. contracts are filled first ,before commercial sales , but not all types.

I ordered a Horton crossbow the other day & plan on hunting with it in Ohio this year. Been a long while since I bow hunted with any kind of bow. I have some plans to compare this & others , with my Chronograph . I will have a week to bow hunt before gun week this year.

I have one on my 20" & it works great , but I will have to look at it , to see if its like the one you have there . I don't care how it looks , its very comfortable to shoot with & mine will not be replaced , with any other type .

If there isn't an issue , you can be sure they will find one .

My 16' has only had MBUS

I have some org. pure linseed oil I use on my Garand & 1903A3. Been using it for thirty years.

Check what the three gun match shooters are using, they go short & long . Most will be in the expensive kind though .To me any way. I know you get what you pay for , but I can never swallow the price of the top of the line scopes . I just can't bring myself to paying as much or more than the rifle I'm putting it on . Just me. I find what I need with Nikon or Burris . Again , just me .

Interesting way to disassemble , the lever in the receiver.

Not a good idea , running another used Bolt, with out checking head space first . Try a different mag.. Check as said above with the one round in the mag. & see if the BCG locks open. This alone will tell you which direction to look , to clear the FTF up.

This stuff should work out fine . I remember many days of hand linking for a 1919.

Most of if not all I shoot are in the 168 gr. range of bullets. I don't shoot long range though .

Came today , nice , looks like 09,10 & 11 stamped LC . Can't wait to make it shout . can't seem to get a photo to work , new PC ,damn!

Natchez has primers for sale , but limited to two two thousand of any one size per day , CCI primers . $ 35 per K. I have enough for the time being , but at least they have some for sale .

Picked up one yesterday in 9mm , can't wait to test it . First observation is how thin it is , even for a single stack mag. I was on a waiting list for quite some time . The wife may carrie this pistol & if she doesn't , I may start after its broken in .

I'm glade it worked out for ya & a 25 rd 308 Pmag would work , well maybe a couple.

Check this out , I just ordered some , we will see how they look . This was posted in the General section. http://oldsargesdropzone.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=7&products_id=548

Most , if not all ,30 M1 carbine ammo has been loaded with a copper jacketed bullet. Lead , might be commercial ammo . Not sure how it would feed , you need to try it & let us know how it works out . <thumbsup>

Head space gages work much better than tape .Some bolt lug interference fit , will be there until they are broken in, some bolts & barrel extensions will do this, some won't . What gages did they try , all three of them , go,no go & field ? Run it wet & let the BCG fall freely .

Ya got me , I ordered some . Had three units left , well two now . This is really strange , I was just thinking of new 308 brass & bam, there it is & what's really nice is , I had the money .

Made & Chronograph'ed some loads & some surprises. 110 gr. Sierra HP ( Varmint bullets ) 19 grs. H110 powder Avg. Vol. --2280 fps ES----------82 fps SD----------24 fps 110 gr. Barnes TSX 19 grs. H110 powder Avg. Vol. --2341 fps ES---------24 fps SD --------- 9 fps A Nosler 125 gr. load was compared because I loaded the same powder charge for them , a year ago. 125 gr. Nosler BT 19 grs. H110 powder Avg. Vol. --2195 fps ES ---------174 fps SD --------- 62 fps Both the 110 gr. loads were well over the stated FPS in the loading data of 2100 fps. No over pressure signs were evident in the cases or primers . The Sierra bullets were loaded in RP 300BLK cases & the Barnes bullets were loaded in cut down & formed ,LC brass. The Sierra bullets with there large HP feed for the most part fine , although when double tapping at the end of the testing ,I did have a FTF on the last round . The Barns bullet shot real nice with the results & @ 100 yards & I want to do more long range testing with this load out to 200 yrds. Its funny , I know it was only twenty yards for the data from the Chronograph , but I shot ten rounds of each load & it put just a small hole in the target . You would have thought that, one of the loads would have went a stray. I mean I had three different bullets & one was heaver than the other two , go figure. The Sierra bullets COL can be played with & I will make them longer next loading ( I will see if Sierra has something on there sight ). The Barnes load COL was from Rsilvers (ACC fame ) I will take some photo's of the cartridges for viewing.

The report was very interesting . Who knows where or who made Springfield barrels that they used in this & other rifles. I have had a few SA MiA's & loved them all .

I like the case lengths as close as possible to each other , just for the crimp,if the bullet has a grove for it, Even if I'm using a taper crimp die. Now I wonder if a case at the shortest posable length would make a difference with Chronograph results . Compared to , say one trimmed to the 1.750" spec., I guess I have to find out.

The one that broke looks like an AR 15 catch. The CMMG V3 looks interesting , how come it wasn't in there to begin with ? Was your CMMG parts kit for an AR 15 ? That's good shooting .

Thanks
