Looks for Range

Looks for Range (1/11)

  1. Love it. Keeping it real with the big .50.
  2. Had the exact thing happen to me the other night. Felt stupid when I finally figured out it had broken and was not a 2 piece part.
  3. Does everything else line up? Make sure the head is all the way in the machine and the pins are in place. Pictures would help also.
  4. Some, but if you get the CompTac, they are cut as low as the rules allow and they have a tension screw that you can control how tight things are. The pure plastic ones you would need to be more careful with. Other makers probably have the same features as well. Depending on the game you are in, make sure you are in line with the rules and do not get them too short.
  5. Pretty cool, but who would use one of these? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aIDXv48OQpM#t=133
  6. Cut off the top of the mag holder so more of the mag sticks out. Less plastic holding onto the mag.
  7. See lots of XD's running around. More 9mm than 45, but no reason not to run a 45 if that is what you like. The most important thing is to get out and play.
  8. I will give you $50.00 and a big box of 9mm brass, just cause I need something to put on the wall for decoration. Pretty crappy old guns anyway.
  9. Before resizing, case neck diameter - Range: 0.3810 to 0.3850 After full length resizing - Range: 0.3730 to 0.3740 After case mouth expansion - Range: 0.3760 to 0.3790 After bullet is seated, without any crimp - Range: 0.3760 to 0.3785 Those numbers are very close to what I am getting. I am using a Dillon 650 and have the RCBS competition seating die and the Lee Factory Crimp die. If you want to get really tight specs, sort your brass by head stamp and get the competition seating die. The difference on OAL will shrink to + - .003. That is less than half the diameter of a human hair. For what we do it makes little difference. Most say + - .005 is well within functional specs. My crimp is .377 and the Lee barely touches the brass. Yes, I overthink this too, but I like it.
  10. Wow! It must be my lucky day. I just scored 8lbs of AA 1680 from Powdervalley as well as some TAC and X-Terminator. I should be set for a while.
  11. Thanks, I will keep looking for the 1680. It is like so many other items, you just have to get lucky and catch it when someone has some in stock. Frustrating.
  12. Thanks Mark and John. All of these powders are hard to find, but I at least I am adding to my list of possibilities.
  13. Mark, would those work for 300 Blackout as well? Looking for subsonic behind a 200gn projectile.
