[New 5.56 frange load for shooting steel.]

Thanks, Spots. Yes we run full kit on these type of drills. Probably be closer to 10 yards, maybe 5 during barricade or barrel drills.

[Finally found primers]

Said employee would be removed.

[New 5.56 frange load for shooting steel.]

Looking at developing a new training load for shooting steel within 5 yards without dimpling. Informal testing of rem, black hills and a few other commercial frangible rounds on 1/2 inch ar500 show some dimpling within 50 yards.

Looking at using barnes 50 gr varmint grenades and going to try and push them as slow as they will cycle reliably. Powders available are 846, 844, varget, tac, 2230, 748, reloader 10, imr 4895.

As of now I am looking at starting with varget, though I would like to use 844 because I have a little bit more of it.
Suggestions or cautions appreciated.

[saw this on a facebook gun trade/sale site...]

The sear itself has the serial number on it in most cases.  In some cases depending on who did the conversion you have to remove the sear to actually see the serial number.  Some owners that have multiple registered sears will engrave the serial number on each of the "packs" for ID purposes.  On a HK registered sear, the sear must have number on it.

Why didn't they design it to just deploy a Spydie net.......

Thats just silly, spydie webs too flamable

[Ammo that REALLY expands!!!]

Just needs a couple flechettes and it will be complete :down:

[New Wilderness Survival School in E. TN]

Looks like fun. Only about 10 miles from me.

[Please tell me this is not acceptable training]

I checked out their website, I don't think I'll ever measure up. From the "american warrior test" page

 

There are 3 levels: American Warrior...93% American Operator...87% American Defender...75% Only 7 people have ever reached 93% and made the American Warrior level. Only 8 people have ever reached 87% and made the American Operator level

 

ONLY 7 people / 8 people - if this includes their instructors, what chance do I have? I might do better on American Gladiator...

and....only 3 of them are living?  I could still pass a combat standards, but when you start adding break dancing and cartwheels and crazy...I fail miserably.

[Knoxville this weekend]

I have to check inventory first, you are the only vendor I've bought from the last  10 shows that I have attended. :)

 

Forgot that I bought 2 slings from Knoxville tactical about 5 shows ago.

[Please tell me this is not acceptable training]

They have courses available, maybe we can get a TGO group rate :)

What are the chances of making these two separate forums?

[legal obligation to unload]

If he asks for mine, I'm really going to look like a nut job when I ask him if he wants all 3 of them? Really "funny" when I hand over my suppressed .45 :stunned:

Right look like core-lokt, left looks like same tip on some .30 cal Remington bulk projectile I bought few years ago

Pull one and cut it or send pic to remmy.

[3D printer guns not ready yet...]

You should never print the gun already loaded, especially with a full mag. I thought everyone knew that.

[Cheaper Than Dirt What??]

I put them on my blacklist many moons ago. One of my friends had stuff on order with them and was cancelled due to "out of stock" then next day was in stock at panic pricing. Screw'em

[components...dlm37015]

I know this has been covered before, but I just wanted to say thanks again for your continued support to handloaders and fellow shooters. I was at the Knoxville show this Sat. and just picked up a couple handtrucks of goodies from David (dlm37015).  I was at knoxville tactical across from him and heard him talking to a new handloader who was looking to buy bulk 223 projos.  The kid looked and sounded as confused as I did 20 years ago buying my first HUGE lot of 500 projos. Even though there were people all around he took the time to get the kid what he wanted.  David has been a great advisor for me, from powders to cement mixers for tumblers :) 

If you are looking for any amount of components I would encourage everyone to give him a call first, he will always be my first call.

 

Thanks again

I ran accros this type of crimp / stake about 4 yrs ago for the first time.  I don't recall it being Lake City though, it swaged out like standard crimp

[Condor Summit Jacket: Soft Shell]

I got the same one about a year ago, it's been a great range jacket.  I had dry cleaners treat it with some waterproofing stuff, water beads off much better.
