    Price check on 50 BMG ammo

    I've come into posession of a large quantity of WW2 and post WW2 50 BMG ammo and wanted to get a handle on pricing. Strangely, it seems silver tip API is actually cheapest, likely because many ranges don't like incendiary. Still, prices are all over the map for 50 BMG ammo. What is 50 BMG...

    Chinese steel core 7.62x39

    I've come across a couple of cases of 1990 Chinese (Norinco) steel core 7.62x39 and wanted people's opinion on what it might be worth. Prices seem to be all over the map and quite arbitrary, so I'm trying to verify before I either sell it or shoot it. It's the copper washed steel, headstamp 31...

    5.56 AP/Tracer, Endangered species?

    Roger that, as suspected. Still, best to confirm. Thanks guys.

    5.56 AP/Tracer, Endangered species?

    The cases are Chinese, if that helps sort this out.

    5.56 AP/Tracer, Endangered species?

    I acquired a bunch of ammo from a friend getting out of shooting and among the huge assortment of stuff is what is marked as 5.56 Armor Piercing/Tracer. It appears as either a tip painted a combination of black and red (black like normal AP with a tip of red) or painted red like normal tracer...

    45acp load

    If you're using Oregon Trail 200 LSWC bullets, try 4.0 grains of Hodgdon Clays. Low recoil, laser accurate in most of my .45's. Seat to about 1.250" or slightly more until it feeds in your gun.

    Took some "extremely left wing" friends to the gunrange today. . .

    Not to hijack this thread, but it's hard for me to understand how a leftist personal philosophy of right to bear arms can be compatible with the expectation that the very vehicle that the left worships and empowers, that is government, will not turn and devour their individual rights and...

    Helper stole a gun, need advice

    The recording is not to use against her if she admits she stole the pistol, it's to protect YOU from false allegations if she feels the need to attack you with a claim of rape, threatening. In most states a recording can be used legally. Even "two party" recording states have these provisions...

    Helper stole a gun, need advice

    I would audio record any further interaction you have with her. Second, I would confront her and let her know that you have hidden surveillance video throughout your home and that you are prepared to go to the police with this if she does not come clean. I'm betting that she will own up to it...

    Another groundhog hunting video

    Great stuff! I really miss the groundhog hunting I used to do during college in upstate NY. Can you ask one of those Amish families to adopt my family? I'd shoot groundhogs and I'd pay them rent to live in their barn. Not sure my wife and kids would be too happy. Well, my five year old...

    Heavy and slow or light and fast?

    I like the "both" answer best. I'll randomly select the ammo from a pile of heavy and light, load them, spin the cylinder, close the cylinder, hunt for pigs. Gun go boom, boom, boom and pig dead. Argument settled.
