All you really need are guns and ammo. With them you can get everything else you need. W/O them someone else will come and take everything you have.
Best movie on prepping is THE ROAD.

Yes they are gone.
Nothing special about their flux, just repackaged marvelux.

Yup still out there and still made by some AR makers.
Kinda silly when you can buy a 7 pound 308 AR.

I use Unique and TrailBoss for 45colt/44special blaster loads (banging steel at 15 yards).
I use a Lee dipper as it's fast and simple. They all go bang and the plates fall.
How old is it ? What model ? If it were mint and working, it might bring $250.
I'd call Tasco: http://www.tasco.com/pages/repair-and-warranty/
and see what they think.
IMHO no Tasco is worth...

It's so quiet I was shooting it today, indoors with 200 gr J-bullet subsonics. Wearing muffs (other shooters) I could just hear the "chuff" and the "ping" when the bullet trap was hit. The binary...

You have lots of options. The easiest is two Weaver scope bases on top #15 rear, #16 front. Then you can mount any Weaver rings on top. The existing holes on the side may fit a Weaver side mount base...

It said so in G&A but there don't seem to be any to be bought. Hope they don't put the silly 20.5" bbl on it like the current calibers.

Tumbling with SS,Lemishine,Dawn, water is the only way to go for any case cleaning.

Can't imagine a Trail Boss load would not be safe.

If you know they used it in 308 you're most of the way there.
The military would never use anything faster than 3031 in a 308.
Get some 150 gr bullets, try a starting load for a 180 w/3031.

You could buy several complete Krags for what this project would cost. AND you would have something you could resell and not lose a dime.

One got it right. Can goes inside shroud. Having a can does NOT make it an NFA rifle although the can is registered. Also has a binary triggers so it's chuff,clang,chuff,clang VERY quickly. Have been...

As an aside, the CZ 557 is now going to be made in the Nosler chamberings. Looks like a helluva rifle South of $900.
Forum: Leverguns
I would not buy any rifle chambered for a cartridge that is on the orphan list just because I had ammo for it.
A 45-70 is a far better choice for which countless varieties of ammo is available.

Use Alliant Black. I can shoot 20 from my 45-70 with no loss of accuracy. Then one smokeless round gets it 80% clean.
Forum: Factory Rifles
They are all horrible to shoot in a standard weight unbraked rifle. That's why the 338-06 is so popular, will kill anything in the lower 48, shot at an ethical range with the right j-bullet.
