I got a tin of circle 10..for $85..last year. If its local and you deem it worthy of the purchase..buy it. I just payed 109 locally on sale with a rust can..tried to get them to knock more off but they said nope. I transferred it to the safety of a .50cal can. Once I burn up my first tin of ammo ope...

Get a bigger target..it help me identify a problem I was having with my .22lr scope mounts moving. Play with it..learn by trial and error. One way..more will come to offer much better info than mine..snic.

Hope everyone is going to have a safe and fun filled holidays. Stay safe!

I like to open them and leave em in my car..weird huh..I also use hopes 9 as aftershave.

I got a can on "sale" for 109 Monday. That can looked like it had been sittin for some time. I am gonna crack it open and put it in a .50 cal can I have. I am still workin on the first can I opened. Man 3 rifles and no time to shoot.

NIce stock and good looking to...grats. Now go shoot her and let us know how she does.

OK, Weight and of course the diameter are important. The 150 grain SP data could be used with a difference in C.O.L. because of the SST's being slightly longer. That bullet is a .312 with make the only other variable being the length of the bullet. Take that info and search around for other data and...

From the breach end for all but my Marlin Model 60.

Erm well its only 5 hours away!!!!!
Its gonna be a cold one..good luck to everyone going!

Gents,
If anyone needs any Hornandy FMJ's try Midway USA. I just ordered 700 for about 130 bucks. Going to load them up for bolt action 30-06 and see where they take me. I was low for .308 projectiles so I got them. Still need .323 for the 8mm..boy wished they had them in FMJ's !

Mine has a crappy stock and mismatched bolt. Everything else matches. The metal is in good shape and the rifling is very good with a good crown. Yea these rifles have been places and I would love to hear the tales they could tell. I need to post some pics!

Well if you need to.. find a M44 stock and put it a nice shellac smelling stock. I personlly look at metal and barrel for my judgement...I like to shoot what I own and if it works I use it. I think it makes a good first timer's deer rifle. The weight and pointability of the rifle is good in my eyes ...

If anyone has a Dunhams near you and are in search for 7.62x54R they are having a sale for $99 a tin of 440. 2 cans max so I think they include a crate and a maybe even a can opener..don't quote me on the crate or can opener..don't know for sure on those 2.

hmm never sell a gun...
Mauser looks good and I always have fun shooting mine..its a good shooter and a RC as well with a incorrect stock.

Considering these things where in caves bailed up with wire..well you be the judge. I one for taking it out and dropping it in the mud to see if it works. I think my type 53 is the funnest rifle I have..because I know I can go anywhere and have fun with it..without fear of making it look worse. Ohh ...

Nice deer! I never ever see a Buck when I am in the woods..now I have hit one with my car. Grats and get some more!

.22 lr and shorts are a hit and miss up here. Tough to get but not impossible if you wish to pay.
I have had better luck with .223 bulk federal for 42.00 bucks. Hell of a deal in todays climate for brass ammo.
I need more of the big boy ammo..anyone have any surplus 8mm ammo ya want to depart with???

If it needs to be trimmed..trim it. Get all your brass per spec. and you have reduced one of the numerous variables associated to reloading. Boltaction hit it on the head..be consistent with evry step..and then you go from there.

Thanks to everyone that has served. I hope everyone had a good day. I had one of the best days today and laughed pretty hard. And I enjoyed it with a fellow vet...at work on top of it all...blah!

I have a type 53 wich I just took to the range last week. I was shooting 5 round strings at 100 yards and putting them all on a standard prescision target. 3-4 inch groups but I was not taking my time either. This is with standard surplus ammo. I shall say mine shoots a bit low..about a inch..from p...
