    .308 & 7.62 for Dillon -are they different?

    I have a Dillon 550 that I reload with. I'm getting an FAL in .308 that I will want to reload for. Why are the conversion kits from Dillon different? I thought both calibers were the same, no? I've been picking up both 7.62 and .308 brass thinking they're the same. Which caliber will I be...

    .223 Failure to Eject-round stuck in chamber

    Hey Powderman, the rim was torn clear off the casing. Great advice. I got that oil this morning and let it sit all day. I put a coated cleaning rod down it and hammered on it three times and it let go. So the extractor tore the rim of the casing off. I've given everything I could a thorough...

    Imbel FAL's - value and issues?

    OHH. I thought Imbel was the ones putting it together also; like CAI. Is it stamped somewhere who the putter-together is?

    .223 Failure to Eject-round stuck in chamber

    The round did fire, which is why the bolt blew back and the next round tried to feed and was jammed up between it and the bolt. I can see the rim is dented from that round trying to feed. I'll inspect it once I get it out. I took the bolt carrier out and ran a cleaning round down there and...

    Imbel FAL's - value and issues?

    I've been offered to purchase an Imbel FAL from a friend for around $1K. First, is that high for an Imbel? Are there any particular issues with Imbel recievers that one should know about. I almost bought a CE R1A1 before and learned that they suck. Imbel's have better quality controls, right...

    Suggestions on a 223 Rifle please

    AR's are the funnest guns ever. I wouldn't bother with a bolt action .223. I wouldn't even know one if I saw one to be honest. Any particular reason for the bolt? It will improve accuracy a margin, but not that much. I got my RRA mid-length 16" for $750 and it totally rocks the Cazbar. The...

    .223 Failure to Eject-round stuck in chamber

    Howdy. After feeding my new RRA Ar-15 a case of Black Hills, I bought the last and only case of .223 in my local shop: Wolf. :eek: After on 30 round mag, I reloaded and started into the second when the weirdest failure happened. Basically the bolt was open with a round jammed trying to feed. I...

    Sig 556

    Just fondled the new Sig 556 today. The one at my local shop was serial number 000024. Unbelieveably cool. The P-rails are all composite and rounded. Weighed nothing. Just wanted to know if anyone had shot one. At $1300 I wasn't about to get it to be the one to learn about it's shortcomings...

    DPMS in 7.62x39 Opinions Needed

    I don't have one, but there was recently a thread (what 7.62 would you buy before the ban) where several Panther owners weighed in. They are among the most tightly tolerated out there, making them extremely accurate way out. They are also therefore extremely tempermental to poor maintenance...

    Sks ???

    I bought a Chinese Norinco back then. I wouldn't sell it for a penny less than one meelllleeeoonn dollars. I love it. The ammo is under $200 per case, the maintenance is nothing, and it's accurate for at it's range. It's accuracy and knock down drop alot beyond 150M is the limit I have found...

    Which caliber for AR?

    Thanks for the tutorial. I'm new to the AR world. This RRA will be my first. I don't want to ruin the barrel by not breaking it in. DPMS has a protocal, so I was asking if they all did, or just them. Mine will be an A4 in .223. I know the 308's have a break in procedure, but what about these...

    Are tapco 20 round SKS magazines detatchable?

    I have one of those stocks. Love it. I have those mags, and I hate em. They sit in the corner unused. They do detatch, clumsy and awkwardly. It's not like you can carry them around. They have those big extentions protruding out of them. BTW, those detatchables make the SKS illegal. By...

    Which caliber for AR?

    I think my A4 has a moly chrome barrel. That's not chrome lined? Is the point about accuracy for more shots about in one round of shooting, or over the life of the barrel, or both? Will I have to break it in through some process? Are these mags expensive like the ones for .308? Are they...

    Which caliber for AR?

    I've got a RRA on the way. Just so I'm better informed about what I've got, what's the downside of not having a chrome lined barrel? And the dremeliing of their feedramps. Is that bad? Do I have to do a special "break-in" of this thing like the DPMS LR 308? Or can I just take it out and...

    7.62 battle rifles - which one to buy before "the ban"?

    Am I correct that only DS Arms makes them here? Are the FAL's you see around all different. Like is Century reliable? Who else's are good if you can't get a DSA. This would be the case for the CETME's you see around also?

    Background Checks

    Yeah, maybe someone from the CBI. I suppose I could just call them. My wife also wants me to find out about whether this affects here, and her background checks. There's a revolver she wants.
