    Optimum powder for 10mm

    Good morning Gents, In my load development work with the 10mm I favor longshot and 800 also. I took apart some ammo I bought from an online "boutique" ammo company, and found their hot 10mm load was .2 over book max with 800X. I worked up my load till I matched their load and it is stout. They...

    Would you have paid 90 bucks for this?

    Here is what my HS looked like when I got it and after I rust blued it and refinished the wood. Check under the recoil pad, the previous owner of mine rolled up a 1969 $1 dollar bill and stuffed it in the bolt hole.

    Would you have paid 90 bucks for this?

    99.9% it is a high standard. Does the bolt tilt when you work the action? They are very smooth, the only issue with the HS was sometime after 1968 or so they started to contract with off shore suppliers for components to assemble their guns. You did well I got mine from a pawnshop for the same...

    Are existing e-forms still being processed?

    Good morning all, I just received an e-mail from the ATF with an attached PDF containing my approved form 1. That took 5mos. I filed 12/17/2013 it went pending that same day and today is just shy of 5mos. I called the NFA branch just +\- two weeks ago to check the status of my form 1 and a...

    How long is your recent form 1 or 4 taking to to pending?

    I'm at 4mos on the E-form, and all I can say is what the clerk on the phone told me. Hopefully she is mis-informed.

    Price check Remington Model 11

    Pretty much the only way to absolutely ensure all is good. Will they at least offer any guarantee that the shotgun is serviceable? Otherwise it will be, buy at your own risk, and it is pretty much a 50/50 crap shoot. For me it was "in my eyes" worth it. The shot gun I bought was an 1926...

    Price check Remington Model 11

    Chev will they let you inspect the bolt and or the fiber cushion at the rear of the receiver. Very important. A worn or missing cushion could lead to a damaged and or cracked bolt. I know first hand, luckily for me the LGS was an old family owned company and although I bought and fitted the...

    How long is your recent form 1 or 4 taking to to pending?

    Hi, my form 1 took 188 days from mail out to my receiving my stamp. With the current shenanigans going on in Washington ( read sequestration) I don't see things improving much.

    Who makes these bullets

    It does look like a bullet from midway, it was re-packaged as a blem. It does look alot like some bullets I used from PRVI-Partizan. I don't have any more of them to take a pic of though.

    Called the BATF today to check status

    I called to check on my form 1 on Thurs. I got an answering service that asked for a name, call back number and the serial number. Form was sent on Nov 1st and my check cashed roughly 10 days later. This was my first call to the NFA and only getting an answering machine wasn't encouraging wonder...
