speedytriple Posted September 30, 2012 Report Share Posted September 30, 2012 Got stuck with the kids when I woke up. Not going to make it out as usual. FML!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scottb Posted September 30, 2012 Report Share Posted September 30, 2012 Ok, then i am off to Stonewall. I liked the idea of outside with the rifles, but Stonewall is close by. Plus I would like to go to the outside place with somebody so there is a friend watching your stuff when you are downrange setting up targets. The public places can be sketchy at times.

4DAIVI PAI2K5 Posted October 1, 2012 Report Share Posted October 1, 2012 I took the boy out to the office range so he could run around while I picked up a shit ton of casings to give to Brain and Ross. Now I just got to wait until the next qualifications to go pick up some more! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Radio Flyer Posted October 1, 2012 Report Share Posted October 1, 2012 I got my shtf rifle build fully finished. I had a few little things to finish up, light, light mount, swap out the A2 with a AAC Blackout and get the sling and sling mounts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vf1000ride Posted October 4, 2012 Report Share Posted October 4, 2012 I spent the day reloading. I picked up one of the Hornady auto powder throwers today so I figured I would try it out. I think I finally have it set up correctly. The first 50 rounds I tried to load it was overcharging the scale pan something fierce. Changed the timing of when it drops from high speed down to trickle and it seems to be doing good. The auto scale thing isn't any faster than weighing the charge by hand but now I run both scales at the same time and it makes filling cases a ton faster.Turned this pile of sized 30-06 brass;Into a pile of partially trimmed and loaded rounds;And eventually more loaded rounds Hopefully Friday I can finish the other 150 that need trimmed and loaded.

buildit Posted October 4, 2012 Report Share Posted October 4, 2012 I really need to research about reloading for some of my guns like the 45-70 and 303. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vf1000ride Posted October 4, 2012 Report Share Posted October 4, 2012 I reload for my .303 brit rifles. Saves a ton of cash over retail, if I remember right I am reloading it for around 28 cents per round. The 30-06 I am reloading to military M2 ball specs and they are about 25 cents each.

kawi kid Posted October 4, 2012 Author Report Share Posted October 4, 2012 I'm doing the same thing with 223 just making plinking rounds now for a class I am taking at the end of the month. I loaded all the varmint rounds and match rounds I need for now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rod38um Posted October 4, 2012 Report Share Posted October 4, 2012 I'm doing the same thing with 223 just making plinking rounds now for a class I am taking at the end of the month. I loaded all the varmint rounds and match rounds I need for now.Do you mind sharing your recipe? I just bought this: I've never loaded .223 but I have a ton of 556 and 223 brass. I load 45 acp weekly. This was an impulse buy and I have not researched anything as of yet so I'm pretty ignorant on it. I can see I may be shooting it more often than I expected.......

vf1000ride Posted October 4, 2012 Report Share Posted October 4, 2012 You make any progress with those cases?None so far today:D. Weather was too nice and ended up riding the bike down to Marietta for lunch. It's hard when you have to split your time between two hobbies that both rely on nice weather.
