Looks for Range

Looks for Range (1/11)

  1. I have a Dillion 650 and have reloaded pistol for a little while. I want to start reloading .308. Is there a list anywhere of what I would need to start and what would be the best brand to last a life time. Thanks
  2. Would you guys ever consider an Armalite AR-10 SASS in place of the traditional bolt action Remington 700 in an urban sniper enviorment for Law Enforcement?
  3. I appreciate the feedback. I may have an angle on a Rock Creek 5r. So you guys would recommend the barrels?
  4. Hey Guru's, I am having a rifle built and I have to admit am still learning alot. Three questions to start, Building a rifle that can shoot .308 from 100 to 1000 yards. - Looking at either a Mc Millian A5 or AICS, have shot the AICS and liked it, so I need to shoot a McM A4 or 5. - I have heard good and bad on barrels, Lilja 3 groove 1:11 or Rock Creek 5R with 1:11.27 twist? What kind of ammo will I shot, for now duty carry Fed 168 match but also want to reload in future. - Lastly on barrel length, I have heard 24 " is average but know some guys who swear with the 28" for shooting out to 1000? again I would like to have the option to shoot short and long distances. Thanks for your patience in reading my questions.
  5. You can go to you tube and see Chris Costa or Kyle Lamb using this method but this is the only/best description I found and I would take Jerry's advice over just about anybody's when it comes to a firearm. thanks good video
  6. Is there video anywhere of the technique where the support hand is on top of the rifle further out, thumb pointing, to better drive the shots?
  7. yes when I do as you said, the primer indexing arm does advance the primer disk, and yes when I release it, it snaps back to its starting position. Also the rotary disk lines up with the primer seating punch that comes up through the shell plate and it will drop an unseated primer down the little shut. So??? by the way, Thanks so far.
  8. Hey folks I have a quick question. I have the Dillon XL 650. Just last night while reloading I ran into a primer feeding issue. I am reloading 9mm. Excuse my terminology, as I may say the name of the actual part wrong, but you will know what I mean. Ok... the spring loaded little arm that turns the rotary primer feed disk-2" diameter disc with approx 16 small holes. As you cycle the machine the little arm(that is spring loaded) that grabs the rotary primer feed disk and turns it, is not functioning properly. It seems to not drop in the primer holes and turn the disk properly. The arm will push back, compressing the spring, but doesn't drop back in the proper primer hole. It is somehow out of adjustment. This may be a simple fix. Any suggestions???
  9. hey guys , i need help i have a dang 545 cartridge stuck in my jp 223. it is stuck in the chamber, not all the way in battery. It's a live round. I am at a Viking Tactics Night Fighters class, and in the dark i picked up one of these devils. I have tried a cleaning rod, nothing is working, HELP.
  10. Yes I wish I could try the two variations, black rear and tritium front dot and compare it to the two lamp set-one dot on the rear and one on the front. I'm sure they are both good however I'm thinking the single dot may be simplier, but...the two dots may be quicker.
  11. Hey guys, any experience with the Warren/Sevigny Carry Sights. I'm carrying a glock 34 on duty and the swat team. We flat footed police traditionally carry the mep 3 dot tritium or trijon etc. Its been suggested to me to use a black blade on the rears and a tritium dot on the front. I saw Warrens sights, also the single tritium dot on the rear and a single dot on the front. You guys like the sights or recommend any other set up? no fiber optics
  12. Have any of you guys used Dillon's Rapid Polish 290?
  13. roger that sir, let the alcohol evap off with the tumbler on and lid off, yes? Thanks!
  14. ok folks reference the nu finish. I am still learning, so you have to be real specific with me or i WILL screw it up. I have been using walnut media and then after cleaning, I pour the brass in a box and spray a few lite times with Dillon case lube (It's all I have). But I do get a lot of walnut dust when transfering and the brass gets pretty dull after the case lube. Ok so you guys are saying to take Nu Finish- how much?? (3 tbs), then dilute it with mineral spirit,(yes or no), pour the nu finish (with or without the mineral spirit) into the media, then let the tumbler run for a bit to mix, then throw in the brass for a few hours? Not forgeting to add new dryer softners, thinly cut up in the media as well. Then...are you all still using case lube after that or no need? Thanks for your help. PS-I'm using a Dillon CV-500 tumbler
  15. Midsouth has large pistol in stock! Not anymore, any other suggestions???
