    Accurate #2 in 9mm?

    I have had good results with both the Lee 356-124-RN-TL and the Lee 356-120-TC over 4.0 grains of W231/HP38 in my M&P. At 10 yards offhand, it's fairly easy to get 5 touching shots on paper.

  8. WTT: Lee .309 230gr 5R for .300 BLK subs + brass

    Hey all—

    I'm building my first .300 BLK AR, and want to shoot primarily subs through it. The Lee .309" 230gr 5R with the boattail is the commonly recommended bullet, and looks great to me. That...

    I’ll bite. It’s a little more expensive but not insanely so. What does the 1500 get me that the others don’t?

    Yeah the 783 is actually supposed to be a "fixed" version of the 710 and 770 where they improved on the parts people complained about most, from what I understand.

    Interesting. Did he say why? I realize the 783 is not designed to be a high-end rifle, but all the research I've done indicates it can do 1 MOA or better out of the box. Seems like between that and...

    Did some reading on the T/C Compass. Price is attractive and so far I think the 5R rifling seems great. It doesn’t come with a scope, but by all accounts the scope on the Rem 783 is something I’d...

    Popper, I'm enjoying the process, and don't see the point in giving up to go to an easier caliber. FYI, I do have a 30 cal and I do shoot cast through it. Having fun already :)

    Yeah, you guys make good points. For my intended purpose, .243 and .270 don't get me enough advantage over .223 to justify the extra CPR.

    .223 vs .243 vs .270

    Hey guys—

    I wanted to buy a bolt gun that I could feed for cheap, mostly just for paper punching and target practice, and that means finding one that can shoot cast well. I really just want...
