A 10/22 that shoots 9mm from cheap, reliable Glock mags? What's not to like?

I have the carbine with the standard sporting rifle stock and the ventilated handguard. I set it up with AR flip up...

If I had both guns on a table in front of me and an angry forest creature approaching, I would grab whichever one DIDN'T have finger grooves on the grips and not worry about who's name was stamped on...

I've got to track down some photos of 1950's Chinese troops. I wonder if the lack of penetration stories had anything to do with their chests being covered with ammo pouches full of SKS stripper...

I've got very little Luger experience under my belt, but I learned quite a bit about how semi autos feed when I experimented with running the TOO LARGE meplat 452423 in the 1911.

Our rounds don't...

Buffalo Arms can do custom sizing dies for the Lee / RCBS pattern. .352-.353 should be within their abilities.

You're creeping up into the "gas checks might be a good idea" range with the .351. ...

You won't get a better offer than Nobade's

Other than round ball for muzzle loaders, probably the best use of pure is going old school for binary lead/tin mixes such as 20-1 that will expand...

Wisdom came in the form of an old box of Remington 220 grain round nose Core Lokt I found kicking around. Those ran fine in the mentioned sample guns. I then tried matching the longer OAL of those...

Can't tell you much about the factory stuff, only that the dusty attic of my brain clearly recalls seeing factory 150 grain scattered here and there.

50th Edition Lyman lists a starting...

I'm with Delkal in thinking that Lyman #2, with a gas check for your purposes and intense loadings, would more than fit the bill. I'd expect slight compression of the nose on impact, but very little...

Read the "Bullet Information" section in Montana BW's site. They clearly understand the problems involved. He mentions using both Lyman #2 of 15BHN and what they call "HT" for hunting. You want to...

Is this revolver going to serve any other purpose beyond "gamer gun"?

If no, a lighter bullet with as much taper to the nose, and no SWC shoulder will give you the least recoil and the smoothest...

Pretty much. The sizing die process reduces the likelihood of the problem I had. I tumble lube wherever practical to eliminate the sizing process entirely, so while I could have run my NOE Ranch...

You'll hear "Fit Is King" a lot on this forum with regards to getting the diameter sized right for the barrel and having a bullet that interfaces well with the chamber throat and rifling leade.

I...

Take a look at the Accurate Molds 34-170M. Appears to be about exactly what you're looking for.

DING! DING! DING!

25-1 (9BHN), 20-1 (10BHN), 16-1 (11BHN), and 10-1 (12 BHN) span the range between where a solid, flat-nosed bullet will almost definitely deform on impact to where there's a fair...

On the one hand, as obvious as it's been that Sig has someone performing "oral arguments" for key members of Pentagon staff, this seems potentially as honest as "troops taking part in the trial...

Virtually everything on the Accurate website started as someone's custom order.

Remember that revolvers are going to lock in your nose location at the crimp groove, and the only way to practically...

Nope. I read (ok. . .ATTEMPTED to read) a couple of the threads covering the process of working copper into casting alloy. Over my head - or at least my patience level - but really seems like...

In theory, you could get up to and maintain operating temperature using just two holes, but (a) not the way the blocks are designed to run, and (b), you're going to get overflow from one hole to the...

As one who has tried two designs in one mold - DON'T! You're going to decide on one and against the other and then you just end up having to cull 50% of your casts before you even start to cull for...

Had the opportunity to take a hard look at this gun, the Ruger, a CZ 550, and a Brazilian 08/34 (essentially a K98) and run the same load through them. Only the Ruger eats them flawlessly, but the...

I've assisted in quite a few industry demo gelatin shoots and made a couple of duty ammo recommendations based on some of the deep dives I've had to do in studying the matter. The FBI spec for...

This is really pretty easy: The old Lyman 311299 / 314299 / 316299 are the same bullet scaled progressively larger in not only shank/groove diameter, but also in bore-ride section to accommodate the...

Seated it shorter to the point the front driving band was almost gone - didn't help. Comparative analysis of other controlled feed .30-06's tomorrow.

Well. . .#1 is that the gun has to work. Not a major concern in a revolver or Contender, but if it has to double-duty in a gun where it must transit up a ramp, you may want to be a little more...
