You need to shop in a blue county until things get better. That where more less then men live and 45acp around with gas prices the brass exchange has 500 piece dirty for $46.50 plus ship

#7 to titegroup. Keep that thing in battery. “Safety squint, double rubber, mother on speed dial”.

Sticky thread probably still a good place to start. Right now I get it wherever it’s in stock

add to gregintenn’s list. bullet puller. Helped me most when new because crimp is hard to comprehend. I still set crimp, measure for some reason and then pull bullet- inspect jacket/coating……. Measure all you want, but nice to see if you’re overdoing it. Plus comes in handy to pound out left over ammo after a kaboom. case gauge - you do you and unlike other rounds I don’t gauge all my 9mm but I have one to spot check Time - seems a fair amount sell off reloading equipment after events like we’re in now because no time or desire after the dust settles. Equipment? try gunblue490 on YouTube. Not the most exciting bloke to watch but he has old upload, four part series on hand loading. Quite a bit of knowledge shared on this channel A+ Johnny’s reloading bench my be more then your interested in, good rifle content and conversations in live streams

cheap is relative term. I don’t see anything “cheap” worth a chance today but pay little attention. S&W night guard series about doubled in a few years, because discontinued. Look for things like this. Uzi pro is probably a good one today. Out there new, but recently discontinued. Three years from now someone will pay more then you paid today because everyone can’t get one. “Cheap” hoard ammo and primers until the next shf. I sold off my 7.62x39 8M3 for fair today’s price. Probably never see 8m3 rounds again but it’s kind of internet hype, there’s better options IMO

If you store primer in pocket of brass tube it’s no longer hazmat item. Combine that with no powder storage limit you’re good.

nice table

Is smokeless powder designed for use in small arms ammunition subject to the explosives storage requirements? Español Smokeless powders designed for use in small arms ammunition are exempt from regulation under 18 U.S.C. Chapter 40 and the regulations in 27 CFR Part 555. Packaging that readily identifies the smokeless powder as being designed for use in small arms ammunition may help in determining whether it is entitled to the exemption. Smokeless powder designed for use other than in small arms ammunition, and explosive products such as squibs, fireworks, theatrical special effects, or other articles that may contain smokeless powders, are regulated and must be stored pursuant to the regulations at 27 CFR 555, Subpart K – Storage. It should be noted that persons engaged in the business of importing or manufacturing smokeless powder designed for any use must have a Federal explosives license. Further, importers of smokeless powder designed for use in small arms ammunition must also possess an ATF firearms importers license (Type 08 or 11); must register with ATF under the provisions of the Arms Export Control Act; and must submit (to ATF) and receive an approved ATF Form 6 – part I (5330.3A), Application and Permit for Importation of Firearms Ammunition and Implements of War. Last Reviewed October 4, 2018 pasted from aft.gov thats all I need to read on this. It’s in the faq and they can’t expect anyone reading faq to look up a regulation. No limit

Atomic Tactical makes 112 grain subsonic 223 that cycles on YouTube. Expensive. Rifle length 1:7 barrels appear to lower keyhole frequency. Wild ballistic gelatin results adjustable gas won’t increase pressure vs good non adjustable. But yes I’ll be using from the other setup before wasting more $ then I need. Using superlative armsGB, faxon LW bcg and yellow to white springco. Assuming changing to pistol length gas port is better option - access to higher pressure and +1” dwell time in the 10.5”. can only find in 1:7 twist which isn’t preferred, Trying to do pistol barrel length 5.7x28 to under with various bullets- varmint to slower 62 grain plinker. Powder option right now limited to 5744, maybe try H4895. I’ve never used fillers and don’t need with 5744 but may need to look into fillers on some powders figured someone here was casting 223 and had been down this path.

I’ll go ahead and answer the question…. because it’s there and don’t want to pick up another caliber Anyone around here ever go down this road? Not looking for subsonic, that an’t going to happen and I can borrow wife’s bolt action 223 if I want single pew. Before I ream gas port on decent 12.5” carbine length I think I’m going to pick up cheap pistol length gas port 10.5”, seems like the better option

Kudos to the ole American consumer marketing wank trick. The toys are us and we don’t even know.

Greetings and salutations! Have you learned how to pronounce Lebanon yet?

Sealed container with desiccant pack. I store most of mine disassembled. It never gets any cheaper, purchased for pew pew when I had extra funds. Live in newer house with lots of light = poor defense position. Really only need a battle pack that can be carried and luck I’ll find it laying around. If you have property you better store some in the ground or sealed in wall so you might have it after some random person you for color of your shoes or a post online with perception you’re building an arsenal. My glass is always half full.

Make a fun project with a 80% lower until you find seller agreeable to transfer under federal age or can ffl purchase. No way you suggest someone purchase firearm to find out they don’t like it offer to sell to you. If someone had to look short term ownership could look like straw purchase. Proving is another story, but the punishment is in the process.

I’d think you would be better off with a faster powder in a fixed barrel blowback action pistol. Not clays or #2 fast but titegroup to #5 range.

What’s your barrel length? Adding a 185 grain load chart I’ve referenced for 460 Rowland. I’ve got other 45 super referencing 9.5 grains unique in upper end of 45 super pressure range. At super and Rowland levels I usually find power pistol to achieve highest velocity followed by long shot. The few references I have for cfe pistol show it’s achieving good velocity but I’ve never used. adding because you’re getting up there with pressure using unique from references I use. May be wise choice to change powder. I’ve found and most 45super/Rowland forums report standard 45 acp brass will take super pressure levels as long as slide/barrel timing is kept in check.

i’m a longshot fan for 6”+ barrel, titegroup for <5” barrel length on jacketed bullets. Both friendly to 45 super level.

Hello WillyK. Welcome to tgo

Greetings & salutations. We’ll let you peek into TN freedom from your CA fiber window.

Hi Chris. welcome I’ll scoot over and make room for a Mississippian any day. We have lots of common ground. TN, MS, FL and TX all use the mocking bird for the state bird. Useless knowledge from back when schools made students memorize stuff about our country

Similar budget but caliber use is 556 I dropped to 1-6 and spent $535 total on vortex viper pst and couldn’t be happier. I was able to compare to primary arms and enough difference to go down to 6x for vortex. I suspect a true 1x doesn’t matter to much for your application. Reticle difference from the scopes you mentioned If you haven’t run across C_Does on YouTube check out his reviews.

Welcome. It’s nice on the east side Kamala was hanging out with Gavin and said “everyone has to vote.” You may want to take her up on the opportunity or at least check to confirm someone didn’t vote for ya

So far I saw internet YouTube’r claiming primer shortage will be affected. I can remember when I purchased primers not made in USA. I assume wolf brand is one but don’t see who else JSC makes primers for. the hitchhikers guide to the galaxy taught a me a few things. Two that apply on this forum are: 1. Make it totally clear that this gun has a right end and a wrong end. Make it totally clear to anyone standing at the wrong end that things are going badly for them. If that means sticking all sort of spikes and prongs and blackened bits all over it then so be it. This is not a gun for hanging over the fireplace or sticking in the umbrella stand, it is a gun for going out and making people miserable with 2. DON’T PANIC

When trump was going to impose sanctions I spent a month’s salary on Tula. They’ve been at it for years. Our government bought a lot of Russian ammo to train with. Since we just armed the Middle East with ar’s no need to cross train. Move on with sanctions would be the next step

What? You’re over there in that rich county and carry a G17. Way too much info already Link that vpn from and get to posting. welcome. Lots of tn specific firearm info posts on here. Some even pop up in a google search. Yea, I’ll use google for pro2a purposes.
