I am currently dealing with this decision. I think I have settled on a Swedish Mauser and Finnish M39. Might be a bit over $500 but the ones I have my eyes on should be just about right.

With me, my firearms are cleaned every time after use. I don't care if it only had 1 round down the pipe. I enjoy cleaning them. In fact, I do believe they are the cleanest things in my house! Plus...
I wish I could but he got his wallet out before mine and snagged it so its his gun :mrgreen:
But hey, I get to shoot it and load for it so yay for me.
Yes the bullets have a crimp groove on them which is why I spent 20 minutes trying to use the roll crimp feature on my RCBS dies and get the crimp just right. Finally got it. originally I used those...
And with S&W coming out with their new .410/45 Colt/45 ACP revolver, this thing might not last too long. I spot a future oddity and potential collectable for the future.

Wow that is pretty ingenious. Thank you for this method since it is going to be the way I have to do things for the near future. Great name for the device by the way.
That is exactly what I thought. My dad is retired Air Force with 28 years of service and I thought he might be interested but like the rest of us he understands ballistics and the fundamental laws of...
So yesterday afternoon, my friend and I went to the gun shops around here to get 45 colt brass and rcbs dies to load them and I was wondering what 'opinion was for 8.5, 9.0, and 9.5 gr loads of...
I certainly would be interested in a M1903A3 matches. That would mean I would have to find a 308 mold to cast for them though...
8.5 grains of unique is what everyone keeps telling me so sounds like the place to start. Thanks.
Hey everyone, a good friend of mine wants me to load up some ammo for him but I am lacking in the necessary load data for it.
