Recommendation on reloading rifles dies brands for a Dillon 550B
Chris- If Dillon is putting them on their site for use with their presses I would think they have a vested interest in selling a quality product. Lee? I get the impression they may be a little rough. I don't see anybody offering a carbide sizing die in 45-70 but with the cost of 45-70 brass that would be my first choice. I like RCBS as well. Just me but I wouldn't want a longitudinal scratch on that beautiful 45-70 brass.

Chris - Dillon sells Redding dies, I would thing you want a roll crimp in a tubular magazine. Just saying... And the guys I heard of shooting piggies with a 223 are taking head shots. Again...Just saying...

Vintage Daisy add
See the model 99 in the ad? I taught my daughter to shoot on one of them in the basement. I sent it back to Daisy for reconditioning and it's still in the family.

.22LR for semi-auto and some not, whats the deal?
Just be careful if using a rifle that the bullet exits the barrel. This could be a problem with some of this primer only ammo. Aquila Colibre actually has a warning and states pistol only.

Wyld vs NATO
P.O. Box 299 Geneseo Illinois, U.S.A. 61254 Tel 309-944-6939 fax 309-944-6949 [email protected] April 4, 2011 Rev 1 TECHNICAL NOTE 74: 5.56 NATO vs SAAMI .223 REMINGTON vs WYLDE CHAMBERS BACKGROUND: We are often asked about whether our rifles feature NATO (North Atlantic Treaty Organization) or SAAMI (Small Arms and Ammunition Manufacturer’s Institute), or Wylde chambers and whether it makes any difference. FACTS: .223 Remington (SAAMI standard) and 5.56mm (NATO standard) rifle chambers are almost identical. The difference is largely limited to the “freebore”, the cylindrical space in front of the casemouth, and the “lead” or “leade”, the tapered region that eases the bullet into full engagement with the rifling. NATO and SAAMI cartridges can normally be used interchangeably with no problem. The SAAMI chamber incorporates less freebore and a tighter leade, which normally provides better bullet-to-chamber fit and, therefore, better accuracy than the NATO chamber. It is wonderfully suited to match bullets. Millions of rounds of NATO ammunition have been fired safely in Eagle Arms and ArmaLite’s® SAAMI chambers over the past 22 years. Occasionally a non-standard round (of generally imported) ammunition will fit too tightly in the leade, and resistance to early bullet movement can cause elevated chamber pressures. These pressures are revealed by overly flattened primers or by powder stains around the primer that reveal leaking gasses. The first few rounds of ALL ammunition, from whatever source or lot, should be checked for signs of pressure or any other defect before firing large quantities. If you have a problem, you can generally bet that the ammunition meets neither SAAMI nor NATO specifications. ArmaLite® has adopted a practice of using a modified SAAMI chamber (Wylde) in its stainless steel match barrels. This chamber is better for match use than the NATO chamber, but fires the NATO ammunition perfectly. We use the NATO chamber in all moly (phosphated) and chrome-lined barrels. NOTE: ArmaLite’s® larger AR-10 series rifles are all chambered with 7.62 NATO chambers. .308 Winchester (SAAMI standard) ammunition functions perfectly in the 7.62 NATO chambers. © 2009 ArmaLite, Inc.

M1 Garand Headspace
Just to clarify....A "GO" gauge gives you minimum allowable chamber dimension. So the longest case encountered in ammunition reloading standards, such as SAAMI, will chamber. A "NO GO" is the maximum allowable chamber dimension. As long as the bolt doesn't fully close you're good to go. "FIELD" indicates an excessive chamber dimension and should not be fired. Nick - I you were building a new rifle, rebarreling or rechambering I would want a "GO" gauge to allow the bolt to close and a "No GO" to close about 60-75% A "FIELD" gauge is nice to carry around when buying a used rifle.

Nick - Unless you just want to borrow it...Why would he need a "field" gauge if it doesn't close on a "no-go"?

Good luck
And too dark to shoot!

Good luck
With all the other seasons available on permit I hardly hunt 6-day.

Next indoor range design.. longer port walls for the rifle guys..
for me I enjoy every rifle anywhere, inside or outside. Shoot 7.62 indoors all the time and the range allows it so why limit myself Utterly ridiculous!!!
-

100% agreed. An AR has no business being fired indoors unless it is in anger.

What's your home defense shotgun rig weigh?
My home defense rig? She won't tell me her weight but Kimber I would guess is about 130. Sorry didn't see shotgun...

Loading 147 GR for bowling pins
That was going to be my answer Bob. Guess you got to be a wise A$$ first. I'm guessing that is the only pistol he has. I would think a 147 @ 900fps should do the trick. Hitting them square is important. More important than the arrow is the Indian.

Anybody Interested in a S&W Model 28-2 (.357 Mag) 4"?
Yes the club dampens recoil ok. But no balance what so ever. K frame and L frame yes...N frame is a club.

Anybody Interested in a S&W Model 28-2 (.357 Mag) 4"?
Big Bob- the mod 28 is a club. I have a 4" sitting in the safe for 30 years...Nice piece of work but too damned heavy. Now let's talk Model 19 for beauty...
