  1. If you are shooting surplus 7.62x45 do a full strip down at the range and flush it with water completley. It is the most corrosive ammo i have ever seen. Most likely though you dont have something chambered in that caliber though.
  2. Another reason NOT to buy from DICKS
  3. Only liability so i could register it
  4. Thanks guys and DJ good catch i edited it is LF fender. Thanks again all.
  5. Just found one on my comp and edited
  6. Hey guys my quad was stolen within the last few days from my work its a green 2003 Honda foreman 450s It has 27" highlifter outlam MST tires on ITP wheels, it has been snorkled with pvc pipe out the LF fender. The top headlight has a HID system in it a black rear seat bag. It has front disc brakes the factory seat has a few good tears in it. Has less than 2500 miles on it and the guage pod is scratched up and sun bleached making it barely visible. I will get some pictures up tonight when i get home. If anyone sees it or knows anything PM me here or email me. It was located in Hillsborough Nj somerset county. Police report filed and all that good stuff. Going to hit up the local dealers and such but wanted to get the word out here. friggin hate thieves ETA: found a pic on comp all that is missing is the seat and tank, the quad was COMPLETE when taken.
  7. that load was a .257" 90gr SBK over 25gr of aa2200, I think was about 2750fps.
  8. popped primer from a FC piece of brass in my 25Ar. pockets were loose and it worked its way into the carrier key first time ive ever seen this failure thought it was interesting. The offending primer Came out fairly easy small drill bit and 3mm tap popped right out. The brass had about 8 reloads on it in the process of culling all FC from my brass supply, it will be loaded 3x and tossed now. Some of my R&P and WCC have up to 11 reloads on them.
  9. I recomend getting as many books as possible lots of data is good. I currently have 10 load books that are cartridge specificplus, lee 2nd edition, lyman 49th, lyman cast book, sierra, 2 hornady books, speer, nosler, many hodgen books, plus all the data books available from each powder manufacturer along with the digital copies. I also PU the magazine Handloader, they usually have great articles on relaodeing and specific data on different rounds. If your able to get only one book now get a Lee 2nd edition, it goes through the entire process of relaoding and has many tips like the ABCs of reloading but it doubles as a very in depth load manual. I would check every book store you run into especially used ones and at gunshops for the older manuals also lots of good info especially if you are into some older cartridges. The 650 you purchased is fine for a starter press just do one round at a time and learn and understand each step before you jump in balls deep progressive. I do recomend a single stage for smaller batches and some case prep work. There will always be a need now or in the future where you wish you had a SS press, IMO.
  10. Look into easton fish and game very inexpensive and 100yd range. As far as your zero i would recomend a 100yd zero, that way all your adj. closer or farther than 100yds will be UP elevation. Makes it way easier to run the scope.
  11. scatterbrains replied to mag1's topic in AR Discussion
    very nice GA makes some very very nice guns. Post target pics and get into reloading, that will really make the rifle shine.
  12. First off if anybody has seen the thread on arfcom shhhush LOL. Little knowledge test whats wrong with this carrier?
  13. screw dicks spend your $$ somewhere else.
  14. See if you can find a ruger sp101 4.2" in 357mag very nice handling revolver.
  15. Legally yes, but make sure whatever FFL you use knows and understands it is being shipped by a non-FFL holder.
  16. Harris, atlas, or GG&G, i have a harris on my mvp a GG&G on my AR and will be putting an atlas on my 243 build.
  17. I would be very very shocked if you get a response. I have all been snubbed by every one of my elected officials dems and repubs alike. I got more personal responses from the Maryland!! reps where i dont live, one even CALLED ME! to discuss why someone in NJ was interested in the laws being discussed in MD, then thanked me for my support of the 2nd amendment.
  18. Im in somerset county, I could prob get permission for ya to tag along on the one farm. If liscened even let ya whack one. Really best thing to look for is hedgrows between fields, watch your background and your distances to structures. I hunt with an AR and a few bolt guns, i dictate what weapon i use by where im hunting and how visible ill be to "outsiders" LOL, and the property itself. Shoot me a PM i only hunt after work wed-fri 5pm to @ 8pm
  19. For finding an accurate load for your rifle, look into Dan Newberrys OCW testing. It works fantastic and is the only way i work up loads.
  20. Do you have a rifle permit? allows you to hunt with muzzle loader or rifle in NJ. If you dont have that you cant hunt GH's in NJ. The course is easy and should be coming up soon the permit is good for a year expires every june. It is fun especially if you are into LR shooting. If your your looking for places to hunt them hayfarms, soybean farms and maybe dairy farms. Most likely you will never get permission from a horse farm. I have asked maybe 50-60 diff farms this year for permission and 3 said yes. So i shoot them on 3 farms, all three i can use CF or RF. Some of the small farms you would be better off with RF, i am now in the process of trying to get onto 2 different golf courses in the area. So far one may happen the other prob wont.
  21. I have rebuilt at least 3 to fireing status again, springs,screws, carriers, sights and firing pins. They are very easy to work on. I have lists of companies for parts and i have a really good takedown vid ill see if i can find it. Hers a good vid
  22. Hit every gunshops used racks there are some deals to be had especially if you like the older C&R pistols, some dealers have no idea what they are and price them cheap. I picked up a French Unique for $105 and a colt pocket positive for $95.
  23. Call everyday ask if its done, i would then go every 3 months and get 3 PP. Call every day after 45days. Screw them for that BS. Write snail mail and phone everyone above the detectives including your state reps. Also contact the NJ2AS.
