    Small rifle primers

    in General Reloading

    Posted

    I don't know about the rest of you but I've had a problem locating WSR primers which is what I use in my Limited, Open and AR setups. Therefore I'm gonna have to consider another brand. Federal, CCI, etc. I would like to know what some of you are now using and how they compare to the Winchesters. Thanks.

    Which DPMS AR10?

    Have you seen the new rifles built by DPMS? I just received their new catalog. The Panther LR-308L and the LR-260L just might work. They have 18" barrels, custom comps, an adj. JP trigger and it weigh in at 7.9lbs. The cost is $1499 and the wait time is aprox. 6 months. Hope this helps.

    DOUBLE TAP CHAMPIONSHIP

    Hey Robert, you and everyone else involved with putting this match together are awesome. This is a top notch match in every aspect. I have started picking one long distance match to travel to each year (from Alabama) and this one has been it for the last 2 years. It's always been alot of fun and well ran and definitely worth the trip.

    Thanks for the congrats Todd and there is a forthcoming version of the "Match Chalice."

    ALABAMA STATE MATCH

    I would like to send a very sincere thank you to Roger, Mark, Woogie and everyone else who had a part of putting this match together and making sure it ran smoothly so that the rest of us could have such a great time. I don't believe it could have ran any smoother even without the weather. I read an earlier post about the AL Section matches getting better and better and I definitely believe it.

    I can think of about 600 reasons YOU LIKED IT TOO!!!!

    And I didn't even get a chalice!!! Would you happen to have one of those in a sweet tea setup?

I personally like the one day format and hope it continues. I enjoyed getting to shoot with several old friends and making a few new ones. Congrats to all of the winners and a special thanks to Sam Conway for his sponsoring of this match.

    Hey Mark,

    I don't believe Randal has received his confirmation yet either. I'm sure it's just an oversight though. We know you guys are really busy setting this match up and we really appreciate it. Looking forward to an awesome match. By the way I had wanted Robbie Wheaton in my squad but accidentally left the squad request form blank. I would like to shoot with my normal group + Robbie. Thanks for your help Mark.

    I bought and loaded quite a few of the Berry's 180 FMJ in .40 awhile back and my groups went downhill quickly. I went back to the M.G. 180 JHP in .40 and have never even thought about switching again. The service from Montana Gold is great.

    Not seeing the sights

    in Introduce Yourself

    Posted

    You have to approach stages differently. You need to be aware of what your split times are and how quickly you can transition from target to target. When doing walk throughs I kinda feel it out as to how I'm gonna shoot it. To me it's all about cadence or rhythm. A guy whose shooting quickly but consistently (nice steady rthym) should be doing better than the guy whose all over the place. I believe that a person can with a little work get their splits consistent enough so that they get used to the amt of movement of the gun to be able to track the sight with no problems. It just takes alot of practice. You've also gotta push it too.

    Deer hunting with AR's

    in Miscellaneous Topics That Do Not Fit in Any Other Forum

    I really appreciate all of the feedback. It made me think a little more about what I may actually encounter. According to the Al Dept of Conservation you are only required to use a centerfire cartridge with expanding or mushrooming ammo. No caliber requirement listed. Eleven rounds max, autoloader's OK. I'll probably never try to make a shot past 200 so this will affect my decision. I like the idea of the .308's but that would involve buying a new rifle. That may be something to look into in the off season. It's my understanding that the .243, .260, 6.5 Grendel and the 6.8SPC uppers will fit on my Bushamster lower. Does anyone know if you can just do a barrel/bolt swap for one of these calibers on a .223 upper? Another cost saving approach.

    Thanks again.
