hobbesgunner Posted February 19, 2012 Report Share Posted February 19, 2012 Different diameter bullet....7.62x39 bullets are .311. Maybe you could swage them if you had a bunch to use up... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was hoping to get 2600 fps from it. I see no indications of excess pressure, so I'm thinking about trying another 1/2 grain after I have the barrel melonited. I'm starting to get into compressed load territory here because I can't reduce the seating depth of the bullet any further without having to worry about the rd not being secure in the case. Maybe the melonite process will help the situation a little. I am curious what OAL you are using? I just loaded 21.5 gr of LIL GUN at 2.165 COAL and trimmed the brass at 1.363. They didn't seat very far into the case mouth but I am about to see if that works perhaps later today. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That was 8 1/2 years ago that @Jgun posted that... It might be better to try to send him a PM and ask. If his notifications are turned on, he'll get that notification in his email. If he responds, tell him to get his ass back in here once in awhile... Also, you definitely just won the "Oldest Necro Award." Well done.
