Could I also get the code. Please. Thank you.

Fat Boy, have you had a chance to test the gun?

Michael Tinker Pearce, nice looking Para. It looks like it likes to shoot. Thanks for the picture.

Thank you GunnyUSMC for the build description and pictures. Very nice looking rifle.

You may want to change the recoil spring, firing pin spring and maybe the springs in the magazines.

Pick up a RCBS 502 or 505 on Ebay. Try to get an older one that was made in the USA.

If you would not mind, are the Golden Saber bullets in 230gr. Still available, and where to get them. Thank you.

I use the Lee decapper with base. It is around $10 and you will not break it. it is a little slower but works.

Welcome back. It is always rewarding to be able to build ammo for your own guns that shows their true potential.

Thanks for sharing your fun with us. It does sound like a good time. Keep it up.

That does sound like fun. Thanks for telling us a bout it.

I received the new #8 today. They have added the Nosler calibers of 26, 28, 30. Also added the newest powders out like the new IMR 4166 etc. Other than that it looks the same as #7. It is about 50 pages smaller than #7, Which is different. The new ones are usually bigger than the old ones.

I have loaded over a thousand with Federal and Winchester brass with 230 gr, plated round nose bullets from Extreem and every one does as you have experienced. All is good, they all cycle through the gun and shoot good.

Definitely spray all the metal with WD 40 Specialist. Be sure to get the Specialist. It is a lot more $ than the regular but it is a lot better for rust proofing. It is suppose to last a year.

Try to find an older RCBS 505. e-Bay has several. http://www.ebay.com/itm/RCBS-Reloading-scale-Model-505-Made-by-OHAUS-Scale-NIB-/271922376968?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item3f4fd63108 I have found good ones there and are the better ones, compared to the new foreign made ones.
