Re: brass options

I used a Lee .300 AAC/BO sizing die. Also, .204 makes excellent .300 AAC brass. I bought a new 250 round bag of Nosler brass, 3 had neck damage from the forming. So I cut them down and made them into .300 BO brass. Work great. Last week I took the .300 BO out and shot gophers at up to 300 yards with...

Re: OAL question

I have a Savage 110 .223 BVSS. OAL my loads is 2.275, Max. OAL is 2.350. I have no problem hitting gophers at 400 yards. My Savage 12 in a .204R is the same way. I asked my gunsmith if he would cut the barrel down and rechamber, he ask me does the rifle shoot well? I said yes, he said leave it alone...

Re: brass options

I have heard on this site that Hornady .204R brass is not liked very well. I have been reloading .204R for my spring shooting and decided to compare some brass I have. Norma, Remington, and Hornady is what I have right now. After prepping the brass to load, I scaled a 100 or so cases to see the weig...

Re: Hornady ammo $24.99 per 50 rounds

50 rounds of new Hornady brass costs me $24-25. Norma is in the $50-60 range. I bought new loaded brass for the cost new brass. I can't buy new brass and load it for that price.

Re: Mini 14

That price is laser and rifle. It's a 1984 built Mini 14 and laser, put together by someone Laser Products Co. hired. Considering the custom mounting and wiring through the stock, factory 30 round mag, etc., it could be a screaming deal for the right person.
