Don't know what it's called, but have a 1941 Win M70 in 30 gov't 06 that takes an odd scope mount, screw holes for it are-two holes on top forward and two holes left side rear of receiver that a Lyman peep sight mounts to. You get one of those? PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE? :shock: :) I just wish my Gran...

Yup, still got several pounds of it though.

1894cfan

Thanks, AJ. On the 300blk site, the only guy that said he used SR4759 didn't give a load!

1894cfan

I've got a S&W 60-9 .357 that I've tried various loads in, and the only Mag load I'll shoot in it is Win 110gr factory loads. Anything else is just way too much!

Don't worry, things are about to get worse than you can possibly imagine! 142 nations around the world are going to STOP accepting the USD in payment for ANYTHING! The US Corporation has been meddling in the world for so long and since Byeden has been in office the US has been run into the ground an...

1894cfan

Just curious, anybody here every try SR 4759 in 300BLK?

1894cfan

Tycer, gotta agree with you! Love my MKII, but if I don't use it often enough, taking it apart and putting it back together is a bit of a pain!

1894cfan

Do what I do, get yourself a section of brass brazing rod, mark the barrel with a lead pencil and tap until you're sighted in. Before I got the brass brazing rod I used to use the rim of a 30/30 DUMMY cartridge to drift the sight. Hope that helps. YMMV

1894cfan

Since nobody else has done it yet, I guess I just gotta! Tubi or not Tubi, THAT is the question!

1894cfan

Thanks for letting me know what really happened that day and who the pilot was, Piller. History deserves to be remembered!

If you ever find yourself stuck somewhere down in the South Pacific sometime and your feet get soaked and start looking kind of funky, do what the Docs found out from the natives when asked what they did to keep their feet in good shape, PEE ON THEM! This happened on Guadal Canal (sp?) after the isl...

Thanks guys, looks like I'm gonna use all 200 bullets stuffed in 22 mag cases instead of the .223!

1894cfan

No worries, samsi, but the Speer JFN is actually 46gr. What I did with the boxes of that stuff that I picked is 25gr of H335 in .223 cases that cycles my ARs pretty good, and stuffing in Win 22 mag dyna points that I pulled the bullets on and replaced with the 46gr JFNs since the original bullets we...

Kentucky Ballistics did a video on it about 5 months ago. I'd still like to see one in 30/30!

1894cfan

Not sure if you'll use it, but that same manual lists 25gr 2400 with the Sierra 150gr spitzer in .308W at 2,215. Might go good with 30/30 bullets instead of the spitzer. :oops: Might just try that load myself. Some 30 years ago I worked up a load of 26gr of SR 4759 with 30/30 150gr bullets that was ...

1894cfan

1992 Hercules manual lists 14.9gr 2400 with Speer 45gr Spitzer at 3,030fps. I don't want to go anywhere near that with the 45gr XTP type hollow point. Maybe 1500 to 2000 fps. It also lists 14gr 2400 with the 55gr FMJ at 2,685fps. Might try 12gr 2400 with the 45 grainer though. What's your thought on...

1894cfan

Let me guess, 8gr 2400? Already use 10gr 2400 with RCBS 58gr cast bullets in .223 that's some 2k fps. Ya came through again, Ray.

BTW, also have some SR4759 if you have any suggestions on that powder.

1894cfan

1894cfan

Just ordered up a couple boxes of Hornady's .224 45gr Bee hollow point bullet and need a load for .223. Trail Boss maybe? Fast powder light load? Anyone have any suggestions?

1894cfan

Even if they do send you your file, there's gonna be a LOT of black lines in it!

JimT, Lee sells a 105gr SWC mold, that might work for light defense loads for you.

Then again, your 45LC would work a LOT better for that job!

Be careful, AJ. When Momma ain't happy, ain't NOBODY happy!

That reminds me of a time when my Step-Mother told my Dad one morning "I don't like you, I love you, but I don't like you"! My Dad steered clear of her THAT day!

1894cfan

I would hazard a guess that hunting feral cattle would be more akin to hunting cape buffalo. Then again, I might be wrong about that, never having hunted either. The most dangerous animal I've ever hunted was a raccoon!

1894cfan

Wish they made that in 30/30!

Didn't read the whole article, but I find the same problem with current Winchester 30/30 cases. I've got some empty factory cases that extend long enough that I can load the RCBS 30-180-FN bullet without the gas check extending past the base of the neck. Once fired and resized, the lube groove above...

My Grandfather passed on both of those and went with 32WSP back in 1911! Wish I had his rifle, Win 94 with 24" octagonal barrel! Went through a fire in the mid '60s and had to be re-blued due to smoke damage.

What a pair of pathetic losers! Get a life already!

1894cfan

Try shooting a Glock 21! About double the capacity of the 1911 and just as much of a ***** cat to shoot!

Figures it would be Yogi and Boo Boo! Looks like Boo Boo grew up and Yogi got old, likely the one on the ground!

AmBraCol, I'd love to get that as a bumper sticker/magnet and stick it on the back of my truck and drive around in heavy traffic in the SF Bay Area and Sacramento!

1894cfan

My problem was that when I was shooting the Win 5.56 ammo, I didn't recognize that there was a problem that the Mini wasn't cycling like it normally was and kept shooting until it broke, then had to go to fleabay to get another. Since then, been trying NOT to do it again!

Should have made the M1 Carbine in .45 acp from the get go.

Would have been a heck of a lot lighter than the Thompson SMG! I still like the 30 carbine round better.

I wonder how long it will be before someone offers a 22TCM conversion barrel for Glock 19/23?

1894cfan

Samsi, did you read my response to Sixgun about the re-barrel? If not, read it! It explains the reasons I was having the problems that I was.

1894cfan

Oh….that explains it…….my fault for reading too fast and not absorbing the important parts…… That must have been a job……..yea….keep it to the side and use the AR…. those things eat everything…… :mrgreen: Yup, I know about the AR.

1894cfan

Sixgun, it was a re-barrel! 17.5" bull barrel with 1/9 twist with a Choat night firing flash suppressor/front sight. Likely the company that did it took the 223 cal on the receiver to heart and chambered it JUST for that cartridge! Too late to do anything about it now, it was some 35 years ago,...

I'm in Kalifornication, so trades are not likely to happen. Besides, I've got SOME .223 stocked up with more on the way as long as the primers, powder and bullets hold out. With the Mini and an AR in 223 Wylde in the rack I should be good for a while. 8) I was wondering about the feasibility of modi...
