    Rethinking my powder selections-new guy question

    I like 700x in 9mm it shoots great and is pretty clean burning in my opinion. It's great in 45acp I use it more in those loads. In 9mm it does well with 115 gn plated rn, and 124 gn plated rn.

    Mossberg Jerry Miculek ?

    Destructor, my mistake it is aluminum but feels kinda like polymer with the wrinkle paint on it. Love the gun so far, good gun for the money.

    Mossberg Jerry Miculek ?

    Scatty mines the 22" 9 shot and even though I have only put about 200 rounds thru it mostly walmart bird shot federal. It is a fun shooting gun and was pretty dirty from the factory so strip it down and clean those rings well. Although it is my first semi I had a little trouble during...

    Mossberg Jerry Miculek ?

    I just got one, took it completely down cleaned and lightly oiled it. There is a ton of info on Brian Enos site, but everything I've read said that if you keep the piston and rings clean you should be good to go. When taking it down take the rings off and clean them very well. I put 100 rounds...

    AK-47

    Build a Saiga, if you have a cordless drill and the carolina shooters supply website it can be very easy. The only regret I have about building mine was that instead of a tacticool with the quad rail I would have done an original wood design because it looks amazing in wood. I've added a pic of...

    Are there any .45ACP Glock fans here?

    To answer the first question, yes I am a glock fan in 45 acp. I bought a gen 4 21 and have put about 500 230 gn rn plated through it without a hiccup. It is a rather large gun but I wear Xl gloves and have no problem gripping the pistol. I like the capacity to size ratio and it is rather soft...

    Muzzle break install on stag ar 15

    Haha IB, I do know the feeling of kind of building a rifle I built a saiga 7.62 and the first shot felt great! It is on my bucket list I already have a pas lower and lower parts kit to install but it's going to take time which I have, and funds which I don't! Steel I thought I might have but...

    Muzzle break install on stag ar 15

    Checked it out this morning, gas tube looks fine! I also understand how it could not turn without destroying that gas tube! The front post is still straight as well, must have just over looked where the stamping was and got nervous. Will definitely have a vice the next time I mess with the...

    Muzzle break install on stag ar 15

    It turned less than a quarter turn, pretty sure the stag 556 stamped on the barrel was on the side of the rifle and is now inline with the front sight. So some thing shifted, the only thing I could see is the barrel sliding in the front sight but the sight and barrel are still tight where they are.

    Muzzle break install on stag ar 15

    The a2 front sight did not move, but the barrel appears to have turned with the break. The bolt closes completely I have not fired it but will try to chamber a round to see if the bolt locks up.

    Muzzle break install on stag ar 15

    Bought a break it came with a crush washer, but it was a half a turn off when completely threaded. Putting significant pressure on the turning and finally got it where I wanted it but it looks like the barrel may have turned with the device? I did not clamp the barrel in a vice. Is there...

    Dillon RL550B vs Hornaday LNL AP

    I just got my lnl in Feb. tax return gift to myself. The start up is pretty expensive for me anyway, it prob cost me about $625 with everything I needed a bushing 10 pack 4 shell plates, powder cop (wish I got the RCBS lockout!). Oh and I ordered a powder funnel, and not the ptx but I have used...

    New to 38 Special

    Hi guys, just got a GP 100 and have some 38 cases with some extreme plated 158 grain swc's. I have about a half pound of 700x laying around and found the Hodgdon data I believe says max is 3.7 (book not in front of me) then start at 10% less than that. They also only list a hornady xtp for oal...
