Powder coating is the way to govfor rifle calibers. I have tested it and vrlocities were above 3,200 fps before i started to see leading problems.

Casting is not about cost for me. It is about always being able to shoot regardless of what the market does. Another is it is a skill that can come in handy. I swap Bullets and molds around so we can try out a bullet before buying. But if there is one thing I can say it is this. No matter what you do you will never save any money but what you get to do is shoot more.

Man with guns detained at Bellevue Baptist Church (Memphis)
Dolomite_supafly replied to R_Bert's topic in General Chat
A man talking about checking things out as well as making statements like that is alarming. Should be no different than yelling fire in a theater. In this day and age anything like that should be alarming and LE should respond quickly to prevent a potential disaster. It is better to get there quickly and have a laugh over overreacting than thinking it is nothing and have people killed. I wish we could boot real life trolls as easily as we do here. -
Where are all the 50 BMG rifles?

Yeah, maybe. -

Not going to fool with reloading it. It isn't a gun that will be shot a lot and the cost isn't too bad. If I want to try a box of "match" ammunition it is THAT expensive. Figure it would never even be shot beyond 500 yards. Thanks for the offer.

I am having one built. It will use a Lothar Walther barrel at 29". It is a 41V50 barrel that is hardened. Whole gun should come in at under 20 pounds. The company that has been building them for close to 20 years. I have not found a single problem or complaint about them anywhere, I am sure at least one customer hasn't been happy but I cannot seem to find him. They are custom built to the customer's specs at the time of order and what amazes me is they only have a week lead time. Not like I will be able to shoot it anytime soon because of my surgery coming up but at least it will be waiting. Matter of fact I have no plans of shooting this thing much at all. Seems like everyone is waiting on Mossberg of Mexico to send their barrels north. Every single manufacturer I have spoke to in the past week uses Mossberg barrels and every one of them is out of stock for the foreseeable future. Makes you wonder what the hell is going on we do not know about. And from everything I have read about the 50 Lothar Walther barrels it should be a shooter with decent ammunition. Ligamec is who I ordered it from. He makes an ultralight model and that is what I ordered. Cost was not too bad either considering what I was planning on spending. http://www.ligameccorp.com/raptor_50_p/upr-50.htm My only planned change is to install a more effective muzzle brake, perhaps I will put my $50 finder's fee towards it.

Been meaning to build a cannon for a while now, just haven't got the gumption. The 50 I just ordered should settle down my urge to build a cannot for a while though. -

Looks like I found one. Just waiting to get my spending limit raised so the bank doesn't freak out. Now I need to find a decent optic for it. -
Thanks

Don't worry, she is well taken care of. She has to be if she has to put up with me. Time to make some calls. PM the contact info on the Flintvilld gun if you would please. I suspect it is heavier than I am wanting but you never know.

No Cash America Pawn shops have any 50's. $5K is a little more than I want to spend right now. Prefer to find something under $4K and would REALLY like to find something under $3K. My #1 choice would be Zel Custom followed closely by a Serbu then a Armalite AR50.

He sold it already. -
Can't find one in Dunlap. Is it Hixson or Cahattanooga? As soon as I get free I will call every pawn shop in Chattanooga to find one.

I am really wanting a Tactilite but I do not trust their Spartan line. I hear the welds holding it together are not the best. I would order on but the lead times on the Tactilite uppers is 6+ months. Also, 18" is not long enough for my likes.

To anyone who can find me an in stock 50 BMG bolt gun. Local or nationwide, don't care. It can be an AR15 upper or complete gun. Single shot or magazine fed. I will pay you when I order from your link. This is a no BS offer, I guarantee I will pay and you can trust me. I will not buy then refuse to pay. If multiple posts have the same link then the one with the earliest time stamp will get the finders fee.

AR Upper/Lower Receiver Vise Block Options
Dolomite_supafly replied to TripleDigitRide's topic in General Chat
I use this type as well and it works well enough. I tighten mine until they line up so it will take some torque. -
Anything that is under $4K anyways. Looking for a single shot of magazine fed bolt gun and cannot seem to find any in stock. All manufacturers are back ordered for at least two months.

Someting weird with double rifle Saturday...
Dolomite_supafly replied to zgunbear's topic in Long Guns
Try different ammunition before thinking anything is going on. I have yet to find a gun that will not shoot adequate groups with factory ammunition. Might take a few hundred dollars to figure out which ammunition though. -
When I was in Bosnia I met a you man, I guessed he was about 12, that offered to sell me AKs for what amounted to about $120.

Dolomite_supafly replied to R_Bert's topic in General Chat
As much as I would LOVE to carry a rifle with me I am willing to forgo that so the open carry idiots don't ruin everything else. I can see them running around trying to grief people and in turn all the gains we have been making lately would be for naught. I have yet to see a open carry video where they are not acting antagonistic towards others, especially others who are asking questions. Wouldn't be so bad if they would answer "To protect you and me" when they are asked why they are open carrying but instead they are often cantankerous to those who question. I have been asked why I carry and I try explain to them why without being an ass. Sometimes we are our own worst enemy. -
Good for you. Also glad you now have the time to ride.

VV 3N37 will get a 147g to 1,200 fps. It is not considered +P either. I loaded some .1 grain off of max and it chronograghed 1,195 fps if I remember correctly. I know it was above 1,190 fps. It felt like a 357.

Ordered, should be here Wednesday.
