Bulk powder purchase
From where? I am contemplating buying a keg of rifle powder or so.

Funny how ignorant PA people are of NJ gun laws!
You can't fault the guy for not knowing his NJ gun laws. I'm sure a shocking number of people think that hollowpoints are illegal, you can't have a bayonet with your Mosin, etc. Even in NJ I'm sure there are FFLs that don't know their stuff. Also, unfortunately, I've found a lot of gun stores have smug attitudes about these things. I think I even saw a seller on here that wouldn't sell ARs or AR lowers to those under 21...

M48 Yugo Mauser
Why could it not be? AFAIK you can duracoat anything. I wouldn't, but that is me.

Xfer just for warranty?
A good FFL would either tell you to do it yourself, or not charge you any extra fees..

Shootin' Cast Lead
I should add that the cast and lubed bullets are sticky. Thanks for the insight

Shootin' Cast Lead
I've shot a fair amount of my Grandfathers lead-cast reloads. I'm not entirely sure of his casting processes, lead mixtures, and such but I always found his lead reloads to be smelly/smoky/dirty. The plastic ammo boxes are permiated with the ammo stank, and I can always tell what brass had lead in it because it seems waxy almost. I have some of his bullets (which I haven't attempted to load), and some lube sticks. The cardboard with the sticks says it is a 50% mix of Alox 2138F and 50% pure yellow beeswax manufactured by Javelina. Is this an overly "clean" or "dirty" lube? I would be interested in casting if I could find something that shot clean. The bullets he cast are sticky to touch. There was no excessive leading, so it did do a good job shooting. Oddly enough, I shot some cheapo Magtech 38 LRN this week and it was impressively clean.

2015 Mustang
My Mustang had an MSRP of $2,610.27 but I don't have the window sticker.

14" shottie NJ legal?
Correct me if I am wrong, but installing a stock would violate NFA rules correct?

870 Ejection issue.
I was shooting some clays on St. Patricks Day, and I noticed I couldn't eject shells quickly on occasion. I would have to stop and muscle the action open, and normally I can shoot doubles with the thing. I was using cheap Estate shells, and the problem was very intermittent. Does anyone have any issues with these? I am pretty good at keeping my guns clean. General contentious is to put some steel wool on a 12 gauge brush and run it in the chamber I usually shoot generic Federal, and sometimes Winchester. I don't trust Estate, they're French and all...

2015 Mustang
Guard, like many colors today, looks fantastic when clean and dull when not waxed. VJF, not everyone wants to pay for a V8. A GT premium goes for about 37ish or more, and the OP wants the premium. Ford/GM/Fiat sold a ton of Mustangs/Camaros/Chargers to people who wanted a "muscle car" but weren't performance freaks. Most of the public can't tell the difference. I want the V8. You'll like the car. The ecoboost is a great engine. Good luck.

2015 Mustang
I drive a lot of 2015s. If I get the job I'm looking for I would like to buy a 300A GT PP in competition orange. The premium is nice but too much money. Give or take 32k. Are you looking at a premium or base? What color? Also, look into an X-plan. What dealership? I am a huge fan of the 2015 Mustang. I've been looking for panel alignment issues and I can't find any. However, the one issue I have seen on every car from new Toyotas to Mercedes-Benz is orange peel in the paint. Ford included. I saw a DIB V6 with an orange peel hood last week.

Yes... Only in Free America.

Walmart has Tula for $5.35/box IIRC.

Interesting what you find on eBay...
eBay bans the sale of "Assault rifle" parts. You can list a "223 scope" but an "AR15 scope" will get flagged and taken down. Also, ebay has a strict 10 round limit. Sometimes I search around for the fun of it. I found this 223 10-round magazine for sale. It seems like a trap.

is all the panic buying souring you?
Well, I think most people see the difference between Midwest PX and Cheaper Than Dirt... I don't think you had $1/round 5.56. I've been saying that I am going to stock up like no other this Summer. 2016 will be here before we know it, and the panic buying will begin. If I was smart I would build the leaning tower of Pmags at $10/Gen2 then resell them in November when they go for $50 on gunbroker. Talk about ROI.

What CCW Would You Choose?
Browning 380 1911.

Do you hate the Plowman?
There's a slight ethical decision with reinforced mailboxes. I would feel kinda bad if someone killed themselves on it.

Forming 8mm brass from .30-06?
Speaking of loading '54r, I found this youtube vid. Seems fun. Dangerous because you could probably pop a primer and get hot gas in your face or something along those lines, but fun.
-
Do you hate the Plowman?
You will need a mailbox post the size of Gibraltar Rock to mess up a plow, but I imagine it would certainly be worth it.
-
Do you hate the Plowman?
Why haven't you engineered some ridiculous mailbox post? I would think you would have an 8" concrete filled steel pipe for a mailbox post by now. I would have. Or maybe an I beam.

Inconsistent 223 COAL
I'm new. Whats OTM? Other than match? Edit: I should stop asking stupid questions. Google told me open tip match. I am using 55 grain unknown manufacturer FMJ pills with cannelure

That was posted before. The original uploader took it down IIRC.

Inconsistent 223 COAL
Let me ask all of you this: For "blaster" plinking ammo, does it matter? I realize that there will be a change in pressure from case-to-case and such, but if I seat at 2.240" my range would probably be 2.237-2.247". I don't know what factory ammunition tolerance is, but 10 thousandths of an inch isn't huge at all. Plus, I'm over minimum length anyway so it shouldn't be a safety issue, IMHO. In fact, more incentive to load "blaster" ammo and "match" ammo for my bolt gun. And the general contentious is it is my bullets and/or cases, not my equipment, right? How would a Lee FCD work with my varying ammo? I don't want to crush cases. Thanks!

Adding bayonet to Russian SKS?
Nice! I have a '53 Tula in similar shape to yours. Definitely a fun gun to shoot. Even more fun than my AR. Do you have a black bolt? Also, watch your finger if you look for the cleaning kit.
