The rifle is an Armalite AR10a. Bought it a couple of months, ago. Thought I would pull it out of the safe and start putting rounds through it to see what it can do. Inspection included bore scope. This good to go? Tack driver or will probably pattern like a shotgun? Don’t want to waste the ammo...

Page 38 and 39 (believe it’s page 57 before current updates) discusses crimping rifle rounds. Chapter 2 with subject of crimping rifle rounds. Basically: 1. If you don’t firmly crimp then you must load close to lands or you won’t get sufficient start pressure. 2. Factories can’t custom load...

Fortunate to recently buy a Garand. Really like holding history in my hands! Goal at the moment is to safely shoot it. Keep all fingers and not bend the op rod. Researching all things Garand and could use some help on the reloading portion. Read the previous reloading threads here on THR. Any...

Stopped at LGS today and fondled a Taurus Lever Action stainless chambered in .357/.38. Been thinking of picking up something like this for range duty. Thinking it might be fun with .38's and easy to shoot. It was $549. I have no Taurus experience, or lever action pistol caliber rifles. Any...

I'm considering leasing my land to hunters this upcoming season. Does anyone have experience with this? I'll have to speak to my insurance company, but what has your experience been with: insurance, written agreements, rules, past leases be it leasee or leaseor, or anything else this subject...

Got caught up in the ongoing sale frenzies and ordered a Hornady LnL. Ordered the press from Jet.com for $303 delivered. Shellplates ordered from Calibersusa.com for half price. Why not? No trailer behind a hearse. What else will I need to order unique to the LnL? Been loading for three years...

In this thread http://www.thehighroad.org/showthread.php?t=795600 , discussing loaning firearms, are you responsible if things happen? What kind of things could make you culpable? For example, if you loan someone your car you are responsible for any accidents that may happen. Is this something...

Just shootin' the breeze. Pun intended. Nothing serious here. My reloading has been on hold for a few months while I built a new reloading addition to my garage. Before shutting down I reloaded enough ammo to last while building it. I load my 9mm ammo on a Loadmaster. Complete with case feeder...

Stopped at LGS to do a quick 'shelf check' of available reloading components and had an interesting conversation. Fellow reloader had interesting method of reloading for his Lee Enfield in .303. He pulled expander from .30-06 (or words may have been, "just about any .308 expander") resizing die...

Bought a DPMS LR-308 and the 'break-in' schedule per owners manual seems lengthy. "To achieve the best results for accuracy you should clean the chamber and bore after every round for the first 25 rounds and then every 10 rounds up to 100 rounds. It usually takes about 200 rounds per barrel...
