.224 bullets looking to trade
I've loaded and shit from my pistol. In not sure what you mean? Want to send a picture if the brass? You need to take care when sizing not to crush the shoulder. I've successfully loaded rounds for my pistol and PS90 but will be mindful of the shoulder. On a side note I've received the 1k 40 gr bullets I ordered.

300 blackout budget build
Finally got the kinks worked out this afternoon. I bought an RRA operator rifle stick and the gun cycles subsonic and supersonic rounds. I sighted in my Nikon 300 BLK scope at WP today. I absolutely love this round. Ill be loading it bulk over the next few days. I'll take a pic later and post up.

.224 bullets looking to trade
Ken, thanks for the heads up and I bought some 40 gr Hornady from Natchezss. I use the lighter stuff to load 5.7x28 which uses a 22 cal bullet but mostly lighter stuff. I have a FiveSeven pistol and a PS90. I have loaded about 800 rounds of 5.7 but pay very close attention to the load data because bullet length and shape greatly affect load data. It's a very sensitive round. You also need to take care not to scratch the varnish off the case. I use Imperial lube but have other folks on the FiveSeven forum use motor oil or STP engine treatment.

300 blackout budget build
I have a heavy buffer right now, because it was laying around, but I'm changing to the RRA operator stock. If it can't cycle a standard rifle buffer ill either get the silent spring or the low mass buffer. Thanks for the suggestion.

I promise pics up after I change out stock me buffer. I have an OD green RRA operator coming to replace Magpul CTR/spikes heavy buffer, spring and tube.

300 blackout budget build
Yeah the gun shoots amazing. The subsonic rounds make barely any noise so I would imagine suppressed they are silent. I sighted in my budget Nikon P-300 BLK scope and plugged away. The gun is was extremely accurate with both factory subsonic and my 147 gr supersonic, H110, CCI450 loads. On issue is I only had a spikes heavy buffer and it isn't cycling well. I'm going to pop a standard rifle weight rifle buffer in to see if that solves the problem.

XLR chassis
I ordered the chassis with the palm shelf grip and folding stock. There's a 7 week fulfillment time but it should be great.

XLR chassis
I have a 700 SA remington 700. I was considering the xlr or the mcrees for an AR style. Anyone have thoughts on either I haven't been able to fund the XLR but have seen the Mcrees for a bit over 800 well equipped with collapsible stock. Thanks.

50 beowulf or 6.5 grendel
I didn't order a 50 for precisely this reason. It's tough being in this state when you have consider all these odd things.

50 beowulf or 6.5 grendel
I don't have a 6.8 because I chose the grendel after lots of research. I also have a 300 blackout but haven't gotten more than a few rounds out. I don't know if you are doing more than target shooting. The 6.5 ammo is actually cheaper and if you handload the components are actually easier to get except for the brass, you'll pay a couple bucks for that. The really nice thing about 300 is subsonic suppressed firing of heavy projectiles. You'll need to leave it out of NJ if that's your goal. I find the grendel to be a bit snappier myself. The nice part about 300 is you use the .223 bolt and mags. However if you like the other caliber better the bolt for it mates to the .223 carrier and the mags are not expensive or difficult to get. If you belong to WP of shoot there I can let you fire some rounds out of both of mine. That may help you make a decision.

Legality of AR-15 (non-Colt) marked receivers
The laws are intentionally nebulous. If you come across someone who wants to give you a hard time you can try your luck in the NJ courts--personally I think that's a losing battle. I had an AR15.com billet lower that I coveted for a really long time. I thought about that in order to spell AR15.com you needed to have AR15, it wasn't the model number it was the brand. I sold it, there are too many alternatives in lowers of fine quality to even tempt it. Maybe I'm overly conservative but I like my freedom--lots.

Any thoughts on these uppers?
I saw a Wilson. They're terrific. JSE is fine feel comfortable.

Not legal. I can't remember but I saw another brand with AR15 as the model at a FFL and he was ending it back.

AR pics, lets see'um!
I miss that upper.

CCI SPP available at Cabela's
They stopped shipping to NJ a while back, not sure why. I don't buy from them anymore. Plenty of other places to give my money.

That would be fantastic. I have brass, various bullet weights and H110 and access to N110.

What are some of the recipes you've tried? I have a grendel and can't wait to compare the two.

300 blackout budget build
I just got the urge to do a 300 blackout the other day. I was at Ottomanelli's and they had everything but a barrel to do the build. The rifle is done and it consists of the following parts: Seekins T7075 lower Seekins T7075 upper Seekins monolithic rail CMMG LPK but I had an RRA FCG that I liked better DD full auto BCG Spikes tube, spring and heavy buffer CTR OD green stock and OD green grip Spikes 30 cal muzzle brake YHM lo pro gas block YHM black gas tube AR Stoner chrome 1:8 twist 300 barrel The rifle is amazingly light and looks great, ill post pics of it when I can. I ordered a Nikon P300 scope and I have PEPR mount laying around.

Looking to swap some reloading components
Yeah they only had three lbs left of I'd have bought more and tried to off load it on friends. But at 27 / lb for something that normally sells for 19 / lb it isn't a good deal for anyone. So I'll eat it. Upside is I have this new rifle I can actually shoot.

Looking to swap some reloading components
Thanks, I bought the last 3lbs to help justify the hazmat fee. It's going to be about an additional $8 / lb with shipping and hazmat. Oh, well.
