If its a rust free jeep and runs, I wouldn't be on here asking if I needed to buy it at that asking price. I'd already have it at my house. First vehicle was a 81 CJ5 have another one in the old...

I've used copenhagen cans for years. Like them better now that snuff comes in a plastic can.
I've got one of the 416 Rugers, but on the recommendation of another member here have been using 5744 for my cast loads. Haven't actually done much with the rifle in over a year though. With factory...

This is not a for sale thread at all. If this type question is not allowed I apologize and would ask a mod to please delete it or PM me and I will.
Several years ago I bought an Encore Prohunter...

IF you go the home made route I'd suggest that you weld the "exhaust pipe" to a flash hider then blind pin the flash hider to the barrel. Less heat on the barrel, less chance of warping something...

I used the Hornady data for my 16" 8 twist barrel and cast with good results.
Forum: CB Loads / Military Rifles
From what I've been reading the current recommendation is 7 twist and pistol gas. I've got an 8 twist carbine gas 16" barrel. The 8 twist shoots everything I've fed it so far including 230gr cast. ...
I've got a 16" with carbine gas. If I had to do it over again I would go with pistol gas. Pistol gas on an AR gives you more options on powders.
I put my money on the Glock. Bought the very first 43 I saw and haven't looked back. It simply goes bang every time I pull the trigger, like my other Glocks. At normal small pistol ranges I shoot...

Get Hornady's load book. Lots of 300blk data there.

Snagged this off my wife's Facebook feed. Picture is from Delta Junction about two days ago.
Paul, you are right. Lots of beauty in this ole world. I've always been amazed at God's...
I guess I'm in the Glock fan corner. Have two of them and they are my only auto-loading pistols, except for 22lr. Carry a G43 in an Alien Gear IWB holster and have a G23 in 40S&W and a Lone Wolf...

I'd say smaller hole. Have you done the youtube thing looking for something similar? Amazes me how much actual decent info is there.

I bet. You may run into that problem where your at the next couple of days. Already at -15 here at the house as I write this. Supposed to be between -20 and -30 tonight. Brrr.
Saw on the news...
For killing tin cans, I'd go 300blk as well. I love mine. "building" one can be as simple as a barrel swap in an existing upper. Even bought a barrel for my Encore in the caliber as well. I only...

What mags are you using? Mine can be finicky with mags. So far 20 rounders, both metal and lancer(?)iirc, have always worked. 30 rounders have been a little more problematic. Metal mags have...

What 80% lower did you use? I've been trying to talk myself into doing one of these.
You will love the 300blk.
I am using an Alien Gear Cloak Tuck 3.0 right now.

The first year after we moved up here from GA I told my folks that I would rather have it zero or below here vs teens or low 20's there. Different kind of cold here. And yes, dressing for it makes...

I'm of the opinion that the drought on 22 is almost at an end. My favorite round of choice is CCI standard velocity. I've not seen any locally in several years and my stock of them was starting to...
I'm in the Valley. Between Wasilla and Big Lake. And yes, unless we get some warmer temps I won't be doing to much in the way of shooting either. Probably do some loading as soon as I get through...
RugerFan please post with your results and experience with the new rifle. What can are you running?
Not a bolt gun, but I do regularly shoot 38spl out of my 357max barreled encore. It is a hoot. If you have a suppressor its an even bigger hoot. easily as quiet as a 22lr with a much bigger thump...
Trail boss or the unique should do what you are wanting to do.
