    Bear Creek Arsenal raided.

    But it wasn't by the ATF. Raided by ICE. I wonder if they'll be shut down. https://www.newsobserver.com/news/state/north-carolina/article225554780.html

    Which red dot?

    I'm trying to decide on a decent but budget friendly red dot for an AR pistol. I've pretty much narrowed my choices down to a Holosun Micro w/ shake awake, Primary Arms Advanced, Sig Sauer Romeo 5, and a Vortex Sparc. I just built this pistol (PSA kit) and plan to SBR it sometime in the next...

    Shoot/Rifle ranges near Portage WI

    I'm not sure where to put this thread. Can any THR members recommend a good shooting/rifle range within an hour (maybe 1.5 hours) of Portage, Wisconsin? I'll be heading that way for work soon. I'll only be there for a few weeks but I'd rather not spend my weekends cooped up in a hotel room. So...

    .224 Nosler Partitions 60gr

    I know .223 isnt what some people would consider being a suitable white-tail cartridge, but it is legal in my state. All that aside, I'm looking to work up a load for my wife to use. Last year I wanted to work up a reduced .30-06 load for her but I didnt have much luck with that, didnt matter...

    Did something difficult today...

    But I feel great for having done it. I sent a good friend home with a Lee press, Redding powder measure (courtesy of medalguy) , 155gr .40 Berry's bullets, and 300 CCI SPP. But the hardest thing to give him was 1/2lb of W-231. I can't remember the last time I saw it available and it was all the...

    Ramshot TAC in .223

    Long story short, I do some work on occasion near a gun shop that has had some useful powder all throughout this shortage. They may not always have "the best" stuff on the shelf but no matter what cartridge you're loading for they have something. Well yesterday after work I walked in to see a...

    Shotshell reloading presses

    Well, I've never been too sure if I wanted to get into shotshell reloading. With the price of decent presses, the price for components, the data with little or no room for "playing around", and the readily available supply of decent price and quality shotgun ammo. But I've found what appears to...

    Yugo Mauser pricing

    So today I stumbled across a small cache of Yugo Mausers in 8x57. They were all priced at $399+ tax, so about $440 out the door around here. They all seemed like they were in decent shape for old rifles. All still had signs of being packed in cosmoline. Some of them (maybe all, didn't have...

    Anyone with QuickLoads that could help me out?

    I'm working on some reduced .30-06 loads using H4895 and Sierra 180gr BTSP Gamekings. I'm trying to work up these up so I can take my wife on her first deer hunt come this fall. Going by Hodgdon's 60% rule 28gr should be a safe charge but I don't want these to be completely wimpy, but my wife...

    CFE 223 for 7.62x54R?

    Well I have plenty of this powder and I'd like to use it to feed my Mosin some hunting loads. The problem is I can't seem to find ANY data for this powder/caliber combo. I've e-mailed Hodgdon, no response. I've called them a few times and they must always be busy when I call. I've searched...

    Switching bolts in a Mosin

    Is there any reason why you shouldn't simply swap bolts between 2 Mosins? I assume headspace could be an issue, but other than that? I recently picked up a 2nd rifle. My first Mosin, I managed to screw up a trigger job on it. The cocking piece shoots forward when the bolt is closed or if that...

    I just made my second order ever with them, $700 worth of CFE223, Universal Clays, Lil Gun, and HS6. :evil: It's just too bad it's gonna take a month before they ship it :( I wish they had some primers in stock besides Tula LRM and berdan. Wednesday I'll be giving some love to MBC too :)

    Vectan Powders

    Does anyone know of any source in the US to get Vectan powders without smuggling it? If not, is it possible to legally order it from Europe without paying a ridiculous fee for the importation of it?
