    Starting to get into reloading .223 Remington

    Hello everyone. I've started to take an interest in reloading and finally bought most of the gear I need. I just have a few questions about the .223 Remington. 1. Do I really have to tumble/clean my cases? 2. I'll be reloading using PMC Bronze .223. What should my case length be? 3. Also...

    PMC .223 55grn FMJ

    I absolutely love PMC bronze. Just bought some PMC X-Tac 5.56 today. It was only 25¢ more than the bronze per 20rd box, so I was like what the hell I'll give it a shot. Haven't shot it yet though. But PMC is my favorite plinking round. Last weekend I bought some cheap .223 that my gun store had...

    223 Bullet weights for 1:7 twist

    I generally just stick with your standard 55gr. But I just went to this new gun shop and found a good price on some PMC X-Tac 62gr. Taking it to the range next week to see how it does. But yeah, you should be good with ≥55gr.

    Serious Mosin Question..

    Alright, so I picked up my M91/30 mosin nagant today. Its from 1944 and in damn good shape. Of course it was caked in cosmoline, but that was no problem.

    Best caliber for small to medium-small game and for Target.

    I was taking a look at the scope i have, its a Leapers 4x32 AO. It has 4 adjustments on it: 2 for windage and elevation, one for distance, and 1 for focusing. http://s234.photobucket.com/albums/ee48/jobobzig/?action=view&current=100MEDIA_IMAG0118.jpg Sorry for the bad phone quality.

    Best caliber for small to medium-small game and for Target.

    Now when i say UP TO 500 yards, thats for target practice at the range. My local range is only 200, but i know some ranges that go to what i believe to be 500. Shooting game wouldnt be that far away.

    Wanting to buy a M1 Garand.

    I've seen them used in this one store a bunch of times. The only thing is that the store is about 3 hours away from where I live. I called today to get a price estimate, but they would not give one over the phone. Can anyone tell me about how much Garands are used? Or about how much I should...

    Best caliber for small to medium-small game and for Target.
