I always order new bombas in the beginning of every year for 2 reasons. 1 they are cheap due to the holiday sales and I have fresh tread for shooting matches in the snow.

The dead air lantac break doesn’t have flats to attach a wrench to. Right now I have it shimmed and tightened down with a strap wrench but worried that it will come off over time.
I’m not lock-tightening this break because odds are I’m gonna swap it out down the road.
Dead air customer service still believes covid is a thing and isn’t picking up the phone. So I don’t know how to tell if this is torqued properly.

I’m just trying to make cheap and fun sub loads for my suppresses 300BLK.
I have a 8” barrel 300BLK and right now a shop by me sells a 215g Polly coated bullet for $50 per 250 bullets. Figured if I can get these 150g bullets to a subsonic velocity, it will be cheaper. I don’t know if this is possible but I’m sure someone has tried it.
I’m using CFE black -

8.3.4.1 In the event that a competitor begins his attempt at the course
of fire prematurely (“false start” prior to the issuance of the start
signal) the Range Officer will, as soon as possible, stop and restart
the competitor once the course of fire has been restored.I don't know why they wouldn't stop you right away but there isn't any time limit to the above rule.
Matt..you’re so damn smart. I want to be like you

I was just thinking. I often jump the timer and everytime the RO has stopped me right away. I was just thinking if I would have any grounds to win the argument if I finish the stage without a stop

I’m wanting to pick up a cz tso for a limited gun but was told this isn’t a legal gun because it’s sao. Am I blind in not seeing that as a rule??
You were lied to my friend
-
First and foremost please read and understand the rule that DEFINES CREEPING! Hate it when people don’t know the difference between creeping and jumping the timer.
Anyway, does the RO have to stop you right away in order for the restart to count?
If the shooter jumped the timer, the RO can’t tell you to restart the stage AFTER it’s completed right?

Fixed the issue. I had LEE dies and swapped them out for RCBS small base dies and fixed the issue.

One thing I found, depending on who did the processing, is that the cases may need to be deburred on the outside from trimming. I had a ton not passing and couldn't figure out why.
Noticed some sharp edges, deburred all the case mouths, and now they all pass.
It’s odd cause the ones that didn’t fit, I beat it into my gauge and it still didn’t fit.

Any particular headstamp not chambering?
What bullets are you using?
What is the OAL of the brass?
Haven’t put a bullet in cause the brass isn’t sized right. It’s a mixture head stamp

Try a SB resizing die.
I just ordered a SB sizing die. Hopefully this will solve the issue cause I’m gonna be pretty disappointed if it doesn’t lol
-
I finally got my cases today and they are already formed/processed. I went through to use my gauge to see if I need to resize any brass and 3 out of 10 need to be resized, not that big of a deal.
I set my dies up and some cases are sized and fit great in my gauge AND barrel. Then there’s some cases that I sized but still don’t fit in my gauge AND barrel! I properly set my dies in my press but still don’t know what the deal is.
I’m using a hornady gauge and Lee dies. I’m also using imperial die wax for lube. All the brass is already sized and processed 300BLK brass.
Any ideas?

Try to see if the feed mips
are correct. The only other ones I’ve had experience with are MBX. It was many years ago but they were garbage. The springs lasted maybe 3-4 months and shrunk 4 coils.
that was a couple years ago and maybe they have improved on it.

I can’t find this online ANYWHERE and have been looking for months. Does anyone know of any local shops by them that might have this on their shelf?
I want a gold colored one only.

Get a can of spray paint with primer in it. It’ll hold up better than regular paint.
Home Depot, Lowe’s, Ace and even Walmart has them for less than $5.
Awesome! Thank you very much!

I have a CR speed WSM2 holster and it’s a green body. I want a black body but don’t want to buy one so I was thinking about just getting some spray paint or other kind of paint. What do you guys suggest?
-
I started out shooting single stack and gave a few thousand rounds on my aluminum mag well. It’s held up great over the years. It shows that it’s been in battle but it stil is great.
matbe 2 years of USPSA and 3 years of steel challenge

I’m wanting to be on the upper scale of speed while still remaining sub sonic with this powder/bullet combo. A local shop makes these bullets in house for the 330blk so I’m not ordering any bullets offline to load from.
I have a suppressed 8” barreled 300BLK AND WANTED a good starting point.
-
Has anyone taken or subbed to these? I’m interested in them but wanted some reviews first. I’m skeptical from how much you can learn from a paid online class where you can’t get feedback/ ask questions.
-
Yes! Thank you so much for sharing! I need this!
look out sailor.. I’m coming for you with my limited gun!
-
I don’t know what happened and don’t really care but this is ridiculous. Everything I’ve ordered thru them is taking longer than expected. Why does the government literally suck at everything they do?
-
If you have the time, go to the range and grab buckets of brass. Sort them
and trade for it. I do it every year and that’s more money I can spend elsewhere.

I don’t think you’re gonna find much in stock but another sleeper to watch out for is xtreme. Their JHP has been 100% out of my limited guns. Maybe bought 15-17k of them.
Do you use a bore alignment rod with your cans?

Just got my 22 can and I used my 22 cleaning rod. Kinda a pain to take to the range but it works and now I know the thread pitch is concentric.
