Groups of 5, for me. Make 5 different variants, mark them and separate them, shoot them in groups. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

str8shuutr45 Posted April 7, 2014 Report Share Posted April 7, 2014 Just loaded up some new 9mm 147gr subsonic loads using Titegroup to shoot out of my just assembled suppressed AR15 SBR. I started with 25 pcs over 3.3 gr, 50 pcs over 3.4 gr (seemed to be the most popular load that I found) and 25pcs over 3.5 gr all seated to 1.160" COAL . After shooting the different loads, I will go with the 3.5gr loads. The 3.3 functioned well but the action seemed to struggle a bit. The 3.4 were great but the 3.5 gr loads seemed to cycle the best, had the best accuracy and for what ever reason, seemed to be the quietest. Back to the fun shop for 1k Berry's 147gr RN and then home to load up this week. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NoFail Posted May 14, 2014 Report Share Posted May 14, 2014 (edited) I mounted mine on the bench. This "Rock Chucker Supreme" kit comes pretty complete. All I really need are the shell holders for my specific cartridges. Going to get them now. Edited May 14, 2014 by NoFail Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

98Z5V Posted June 14, 2014 Report Share Posted June 14, 2014 The MINI CHOP SAW NINJA went ballistic tonight, so I had to get to work... 110 pieces of 5.56 NATO turned into 300BLK. Chopped, resized and deprimed, and ready to have primer pockets reamed and trimmed to length. She's NUTS. I'm not saying anymore right now... :cookoo: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
survivalshop Posted June 14, 2014 Report Share Posted June 14, 2014 Now all you need is this ! <thumbsup> Your cut off operator seems to be looking over her safety glasses <laughs> I was going to chop some 5.56 myself this weekend . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
unforgiven Posted June 14, 2014 Report Share Posted June 14, 2014 (edited) That setup is brilliant brother. <thumbsup> Looking over glasses can't be good as brass is not magnetic to ease removal,I have had metal get in me eye a few times even with safety glasses on it most certanly sucked.

survivalshop Posted June 16, 2014 Report Share Posted June 16, 2014 Annealed about 100 LC 308 brass today , took longer to mark them with the Temperature indicator then to anneal them . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
98Z5V Posted June 16, 2014 Report Share Posted June 16, 2014 I got those 110 new pieces of 300BLK brass trimmed to 1.363", and cut out the primer swages. Lake City brass is the hardest $hit to cut out, too. Got them all tumbled again and just finished priming them. Gonna go load them up in a few. Using 16.1gr H110 with Hornady 150-gr SSTs on top this time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sketch Posted June 17, 2014 Report Share Posted June 17, 2014 Hey fellas my shooting buddy went on holiday and I told him to grab pistol powder since there is none here in the last 6-8 mo. Unfortunately he does not relode that's my job! So he found 3 lbs of imr 7828 is there any use in 308 for this?? I see its a magnum pow but can I use it in a lower dose or don't bother? Thanks for your info!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shibiwan Posted June 17, 2014 Report Share Posted June 17, 2014 I'm not aware of any standard rifle loads that use 7828.... probably why there is so much of that stuff still floating around and not being hoarded.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
