    Max Effectiveness of 7.62 x 39

    This is misleading. The 7.62x39 was not designed to kill 150-200lb ANIMALS. It was designed for warfare against human beings & most importantly, to operate in both full & semi automatic rates of fire weapons. Those were the parameters of the 314 cartridge designs looked at by the Soviet Armament...

    Tiered pressure ranges and modern specs

    Oh… no Jim, I wasn’t referring to your posts. Sorry if you thought I was. I know you’re baggin’ what I’m rakin’ partner. And I am surely smellin’ what you’re steppin in. ;)

    Tiered pressure ranges and modern specs

    I think that’s how any experienced Reloader does it. They may start with a loaf manual for various powders/bullets, etc., but will reach their own Max loads for velocity, & accuracy loads based on their own findings. And many of the numbers may contradict a load manual. I know I certainly do. I...

    How might this actually get installed? Is it as easy as it looks?

    They are not difficult. Watch several videos to get acquainted with the process. Drill straight & true.

    Rebuilt Custom Bench Rifle (pics, of course)

    :D Are you on Savage Shooters? If not, go there and start reading. I’m there.. can’t miss me. Same name. Contact me anytime you like. I can go through everything you need to become a “BONAFIDE Savage-Smith”, LOL:D I’ve been a Savage 10/110 rifle fan since my first High Power rifle at age 18...

    Rebuilt Custom Bench Rifle (pics, of course)

    Thanks. Yes, lockers work great! I didn’t have a source for any, otherwise that’s exactly what I’d have used. I actually had a large steel rolling shelf unit I wasn’t using, so I cut off the phone so sides & used strips of the steel sheet to basically make a locker, or a cubby. Found a thick...

    Tiered pressure ranges and modern specs

    It’s certainly not every cartridge, but look at many of the most popular. http://kwk.us/pressures.html

    Tiered pressure ranges and modern specs

    Ok.. some people are confused about CUP & CIP. CUP is Copper Units of Pressure & is a pressure reading much like PSI, etc. CIP is the “Commission Internationale Permanente” it is NOT a pressure reading, but rather the European equivalent of SAAMI, which deals with the specs on everything...

    Economical AR kit- where did I see it?

    You’re right. Sorry.. was just replying to what they said about making everything in house & what not. But yeah… I wasn’t even thinking about the thread title, LOL! I did say they were good rack grade though…:D

    Tiered pressure ranges and modern specs

    Not CUP (Copper Unit Pressure). C.I.P. (The Commission Internationale Permanente). The European equivalent of SAAMI. You will find, while SAAMI stops cartridges short in pressure (again, standards have changed over the decades. Manuals showed max loads using a bit more pressure in the 60’s...

    Rebuilt Custom Bench Rifle (pics, of course)

    This is using the same Shilen 260 Remington barrel & Model 10 Action from the rifle I first built several years ago. But I decided on a complete overhaul & rebuild. Stripped it back down to parts & sandblasted. Added a new International barrel nut, and Cerakoted everything myself in Armor Black...

    Tiered pressure ranges and modern specs

    That is why most reloaders prefer CIP. Anyone with access to old Load Manuels, compare some loads to to the modern Manuel’s. Many of them you’ll find a large differential. Like most things, SAAMMI & even Reloading has been sissified!

    Atheris Rifle Company

    Use your judgement. I’d say as long as everything works correctly, it shoots well & you’re getting a good deal, sure. Can you post a pic? I can tell you some of the parts with fairly detailed pic. I can tell you a little about Atheris. They are one of the countless companies that jumped in the...

    Economical AR kit- where did I see it?

    Well, no… Bear Creak doesn’t actually “make” anything. They buy mostly inexpensive parts at cost and assemble rifles just as you, myself or anyone else would. They are indeed, adequately shootable, rack grade rifles. No doubt. However, if you believe $370 is getting a top quality AR , well… good...

    Hatin’ on the 300 BO?

    Tell yourself what you want. I believe it’s an act of low moral standard & character.

    Hatin’ on the 300 BO?

    I didn’t say a thing about suppressors. I asked why anyone except a mall ninja would use Sub-Son ammo. Its plain wrong intentionally hunting with SUB-SONIC ammunition.. ammunition we know & have proof does not perform like full power loads. To me, it’s on equal terms of hunters who try taking...

    Hatin’ on the 300 BO?

    Why would anyone shoot sub sonic anything except for playing Mall Ninja at one’s favorite shooting range? :confused: Or I have another little ploy the fan boys do in videos. They test 300bo & 223 both in short barrels! Again, why in hell would I use a 10” barrel with 223 in hunting, defensive...

    Hatin’ on the 300 BO?

    This is why I hate it really. Because regardless of what the manufacturers say or what you think with your feelings, this is the reality! And some reality. 300 Blkt is typically closer in velocity/bullet-weight to 30 Carbine than it is to 7.62x39.

    Modifying AR15 Bolt

    I meant only the picture itself being a “misleading look”. Not your action. That’s all. Something can be misleading without any wrongdoing after all. Sorry for confusion.:) Guess I didn’t use enough smiley faces to express the jest? :rofl:
