    First batch of 7.5x55 Schmidt-Rubin

    Already did that, picked a few rounds at random and loaded up the mag. They all cycled fine.

    First batch of 7.5x55 Schmidt-Rubin

    That's true. In worst case I can always put my pile driver to use and take them apart but I don't anticipate any issues. In retrospect I should have done 10 first.

    First batch of .50 AE

    Got my delivery from RCBS today. Had to order their tamper crimp/seating die and shell holder since Lee's aren't too great for .50 AE. The rim on the Hornady brass is a mm or so too thick and won't fit in the Lee shell holder, and well their crimp die doesn't do shit. Set up the crimp and...

    Trump Cabinet

    Matt Gaetz will be awesome as AG. Dan Bongino said it right, all the people who are guilty about something are the ones who are terrified by his appointment. Marco Rubio I don't trust as far as I can throw him, Tulsi would be a better Secretary of State. And Brandon fucking Herrera as Director...

    First batch of 7.5x55 Schmidt-Rubin

    Managed to salvage one of the cases, so 99 rounds now. The other case was beyond salvage so I turned it into a key chain for my gun lock keys. Waste not.

    WHOA! New York Governor Warns Trump About Supporting 2nd Amendment!

    I wonder if there would be any response by SCOTUS if someone would draft a letter imploring them to send the US Marshals to arrest the Das Cunt Kommandant Hochul. She has violated their decision in NYSPRA v. Bruen, illegals situation, and the many other infringements against us in the ninth...

    Help me pick an SKS

    My friend also has one of these. Was dirt cheap and works well. They don't make bad stuff for range plinking guns. Have the tried steel cased in it?

    My eBay reloading purchase

    The Autodisk doesn't handle the powder capacity for the large rifle rounds and in the Lee Modern Reloading manual it calls for the Autodrum. I had to damn near screw out the rifle powder tube on the Autodisk all the way to get it to drop 45.0gr of powder when I was reloading 7.5x55mm...

    First batch of 7.5x55 Schmidt-Rubin

    Finally got my first batch of 7.5x55mm made. I would have had a nice 100, but I fucked up two brass. The Lee Autodrum rifle tube was at its limit. I almost screwed out all the way to drop 45.0gr (it was consistently dropping 45.2) but that's fine. The "Not Exceed" in both the Lee manual and...

    Help me pick an SKS

    A simple reason for me on the SKS is you can use steel cased ammo without fear of the case getting stuck. My friend fucked up the barrel on his 6.5 Grendel upper shooting steel cased. I remember when a SKS could be had for $99, sold in a barrel.

    I havent had any reliability issues at all. The bolt stays open after the last round with no issue. The only thing I haven't done yet is to mill down bottom of the bolt. If you don't do this, you can't remove an empty mag or insert a full mag without the bolt being locked back. There is also a...

    Here is my Norinco I got that was in pretty bad shape. I tossed the stock since it was cracked and split down the middle from the trigger housing all the way down, it was being held together by fiber glass. I chopped the barrel to carbine length and recrowned it using the brass bolt method. Put...

    All Things Presidential Election 2024

    Stefanik and Zeldin taking those positions would be a huge loss to NYS conservative politics. It's great that Trump wants to surround himself with qualified, trustworthy and intelligent people, but damn, we would be fucked.

    Trump vows to sign CCW reciprocity bill.

    SCOTUS needs to start reaching out to heads of respective State Police departments and order them to take into custody any Governor who willfully violates any constitutional right and SCOTUS decision that sets legal precedent supporting said constitutional right.

    50 AE reloading questions

    I wouldn't use any lead exposed bullets just because of the potential fouling issues with the gas port. Magnum Research said bullets must have the lower half copper jacketed. It's WAY too much of an expensive fuck up to chance it with lead exposed bullets. You have to buy a new barrel which is...

    50 AE reloading questions

    I'm not sure if there are many of you who reload 50 AE, but I figured I'd share some of experience so far. The Lee shell holder that comes with the die set doesn't like Hornady brass. It is less than 1mm thicker than the Starline and Speer brass but enough to cause issues. I ordered an RCBS...

    NYS is looking to reduce rock salt usage for environmental reasons

    Im actually happy about this. The fucking salt is a nightmare to vehicles. The rust from one season of salting was insane on my pickup. In PA they use sand and it works perfectly fine. When I go up to my house in Lake Ariel I have zero issues.

    I have no use for the 50 cal FTX bullets since you can't shoot them out of the DEagle. I may as well load them for my friend to waste.

    Crushed cases on Lee 1000

    To trouble shoot, I'd suggest doing some single stage action in getting your cases resized and primed. Take out all the dies except your powder drop. Set your depth level and do a couple of test drops. This way you can see for sure if it is the powder drop that is causing the issues and ruling...

    Desert Eagle 50 AE and ammo types

    Thanks. Any idea if the Hornady FTX rounds are safe to use with the DEagle? When I look up 50 cal FTX rounds on Hornady's website, the only one is listed for 500 SW. I am not sure why these 50AE casings were loaded with those bullets if they don't match the formulary.
