  1. I drive back and forth down south a lot. It seems shine has become the boutique drink lately. Bonded shine is less than authentic IMHO. On the other hand...I'm a little scared to drink the "back yard" stuff. Just saying.
  2. Read this. This is the partner of one our members. http://patch.com/new-jersey/jefferson/donations-sought-morris-county-tattoo-shop-owner-struck-rare-disease-0?utm_source=newsletter-daily&utm_medium=email&utm_term=lifestyle&utm_campaign=newsletter&utm_content=article-mostrecent You may want to help.
  3. Read the primers and cases. Safer than a formula.
  4. And I sure if you're shooting the hell out of them they're a little easier to clean.
  5. 28" is too long IMHO I shoot a 24" which I feel is optimal. If you intend on building a precision rifle forget chrome lined. Inconsistent bore diameter does not aid accuracy and, you're not going in the jungle. In order of least to most accurate barrels go like this: Hammer forged, button rifled, cut rifled. Button rifled or cut rifled lapped barrels are the most accurate. Try X-Caliber Barrels through Barrelman.com They are good barrels in quality and bang for the buck. And we're talking Stainless Steel of course.

    The BLR is not a varmint rifle. IMHO it just doesn't have it in the accuracy department.
  7. Anybody that says NO is lying! I admit, I've closed the bar and have ended up taking one home.
  8. You should their nice new store in Mt Pleasant, SC. Gorgeous! I'll be there again in a few weeks.
  9. Mark - You can and should get the sediment out. Pull the valve right off and coat hanger that puppy.
  10. http://www.hodgdonreloading.com/ The data I posted was from a hard copy manual but the above link matches that data. I would feel comfortable using this data.
  11. Mark - Unless you have a leaking tank.... Repair is now a viable option. I had a 50 lowboy recently in a condo that I put a thermostat/ heater repair kit in for $40
  12. Make sure you're distinguishing between IMR4895 and H4895. My manual, Hodgdon 2014, says for a 150gr Nos Part...IMR4895 36gr only one loading For H4895 38.5gr - 42gr. Hope this helps.

    Listen you disrespectful pup! Oak Ridge Firearms is sitting on a Colt Commander or Combat Commander! Go first class!
  14. Post your bullet weight and I'll check my manuals.
  15. Off topic a little but, what is the weight of your recoil spring?
  16. The problem doesn't seem to be the extractor but the ejector. The cartridge is always extracted from the chamber but is not kicked out from under the extractor claw. Here you go: http://www.gunpartscorp.com/Products/414470.htm

    No dead heat now. Just buy an STI Spartan in 45acp. It'll shoot better than you and rugged. NO MIM parts and tight. Excellent customer service. Parkerized like a real 45. And it won't break the bank.
  18. Remember it's about the hunt not the kill. One shot one kill. The animal deserves that much. Safety as the others have said, If you're on ground, get your back up against a tree. Don't do anything that makes you look like a deer. NO, NO white handkerchiefs please. Wear blaze orange.
  19. I look forward to talking with you. I'm looking at 6mm AR. Based on 6.5 Grendel necked down to 6mm. Same shoulder, same body.
  20. Latch on to somebody that shoots precision. Learn to reload for accuracy. And shoot, shoot, shoot! This is where your time and money will be best spent. And don't be an equipment snob. You can get in for under a couple of grand . if you shop wisely.
  21. Accuracy, bullet availability, speed
  22. The got cha is barrel and chambering availabliity. I want my chamber to match my FL sizing die. Reading makes the dies. I may have to buy a reamer (maybe) if my barrel guy (X-Caliber through Barrelman) doesn't have or can't get a reamer that matches the dies. I'll be pulling the trigger and start assembling parts in about two weeks. I'm going billet upper and don't know (I doubt it) if I'm going side charger. If you have or like part sources please tell me. If you're interested PM me and I'll tell you what the budget is on the upper. I think you'll be surprised.
  23. I'm building another rifle and may need to buy a reamer. I've sourced all the parts and if we build more than one can save some cash. To be clear this is just an upper, This isn't a beginners project. Do your homework. This may be a real opportunity,
  24. And fits in a standard AR 5.56 lower
