What 110 grain factory ammo were you shooting for your comparison?
I've had better accuracy with PMC or old Korean surplus than I have with the more expensive stuff.

M1 carbines can be puzzling...

I've had excellent luck with the Lee .312, 160 grain TL bullet 2X coated with Harbor Freight red. I can usually keep 10 rounds inside four inches at 100 yards through a 59/66 SKS.

Back when I was...

I've had good luck using the same tool I use to remove Berdan primers with the "punch and pry" method.

I've found that the key to success is making your punch out of the...

Give it 10 or 15 years and you'll "see" (or NOT see) the problem with irons.

.45 ACP isn't be my first choice for hogs, but I have killed a couple smallish ones with my P220.

I like the Lyman 452424. I know it was designed for the .45 Colt, but they shoot pretty good in...

They're still good to go, at least they were a year or so ago when I managed to pick up a couple bulk packs of 'em.

I was a little disappointed at first since about 20% of them went supersonic in...

I understand that you don't want another knee replacement, but why?

I feel pretty safe in assuming that you're not afraid of the pain associated with the surgery!

If you had good results from...

I haven't had any experience with knee surgery since having torn cartilage repaired 35 years ago after a high school football injury. I've also never had a single medical procedure performed on me in...

My 35 year old Marlin Model 60 was far more accurate than my 10-22 until I'd spent about seven times as much on a barrel and trigger work for the 10-22 as the Marlin cost brand new (there WAS 30...

It won't.
Better get the Henry ready.

10 degrees!

Wind chill of 10 below!

My DEEP FREEZE. doesn't get that cold!

I really feel like a wimp now.

I didn't hunt Monday morning because it was 22 degrees.

Hmmm... I hate to see anyone do something DRASTIC! :drinks:

Seriously though, good on you.

I gave up beer, beef, booze, mushrooms and even beans, but nothing really helped until I got on the...

See your Dr and get a prescription for allopurinol, take it as prescribed and drink plenty of water. Don't expect it to provide relief if you're actually having an acute attack though.

For that...

I don't shoot much of the bulk pack stuff anymore except through pistols. I have noticed that almost ALL bulk .22 ammo bought since @2008 has higher misfire rates and worse accuracy than the older...

Are there any problems or advantages associated with the Carcano's "gain twist" rifling when shooting cast?

Are any special tips or tricks needed?

Just out of curiosity, I followed that link, the domain name is now up for sale.
windrider ​sure nailed that one! :bigsmyl2:

1- Fly to Pakistan.
2- Take a bus up to the Khyber Pass.
3- Ask for Achmed the mag maker.

You're SET! :mrgreen::mrgreen:

Why not use CerroSafe to fill the entire bore?

Making precise, removable casts is pretty much what it's designed to do.

It shrinks when it first cools to allow easy removal and then re-expands...

Inserting an oversize brass brush from the rear and then jerking it out quickly usually works for me.

If that doesn't work, the Cerrosafe will. I'd avoid using lead though, Cerrosafe melts at @185...

What primers are you using?

Are you seeing a lot of unburned powder kernels after firing?

It sounds like you need more, or faster burning, more easily ignited powder, but without access to a...

Seems like a pretty good deal to me, even with the worn bore by the muzzle.
If backboring doesn't solve your accuracy problems, try running an electric cleaner in it.

I have an M44 that looked...

Awesome deal!
With just a little work you oughtta have yourself two excellent hunting rifles.

Wasn't the Mosin actually issued to U.S. troops deployed to Russia during the revolution in order to ensure ammunition commonality with our White Russian allies?
I seem to remember reading somewhere...

No experience with cast in a Garand, but they do fine in my Springfield M1A.

On the other hand, shooting more than about 10 rounds a minute of cast 160 grain GC's over 14.5 grs of 2400 through my...

I've noticed that my .223 loads with H322 seem to have less flash than any of the other "full power" loads I shoot.

In 7.62x39, the H322 seems to put out MORE flash than most of the other powders...
