pbkid6974 1 Posted February 25, 2014 FINALLY!!! congrats. its been a long and bumpy road. how does it feel to be done? hopefully she shoots and good as she looks. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bully 749 Posted February 25, 2014 Thanks all. No range report yet. Hoping to get out and test fire it this evening but it'll depend on time. @Kimber45, I will definitely keep you apprised on the barrel. You're welcome to shoot it once I get the bugs worked out. @VzGuy, DEFINITELY!! Would love to go shooting with you. @pbkid, thanks. I'm psyched. Thankfully there wasn't any stress during the build. It was easy but I'm broke which sucks. Thanks again. C Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BlueLineFish 615 Posted February 25, 2014 Get out and shoot for once already Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

pbkid6974 1 Posted February 26, 2014 what issues were you having? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Heavyopp 167 Posted February 26, 2014 you using factory ammo or hand loads? If its not cycling it could easily be an ammo issue with hand loads Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bully 749 Posted February 26, 2014 She's not cycling. No biggie. I'll tear her down and make sure there's nothing mechanical happening and then work on my loads. It's all handloads for me. I can't afford to shoot otherwise C Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bugsy732 1 Posted February 26, 2014 Have you tried a few rounds of factory ammo yet? Buy a box of 20 and see if the problem is still there. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bully 749 Posted February 26, 2014 I have a box, but it's sub. I will look around and see if I can find some. I despise paying for factory, btw. Just irks me. I'm apparently getting wicked cheap as I get older! C Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
