Re: Failed Krag bolt-lug
Now there's a bolt that has seen it's fair share of abuse!

Re: OOPS
Hey there Olpeddler... I'm familiar with Accurate 2520. That's the powder I'm using to load for 5.56 NATO for my AR (Modern Military). I just started loading this round over the winter and selected the 2520 based on availability of different powders. I originally intended to use Vihtavouri 140, but ...

Re: OOPS
Ahhh Haaaa... these will not be going into the Garand. These are for the 1903A3 only! I have my Garand ammo already loaded. Interestingly enough, my Garand doesn't do well with the A-Max bullets, so for the Garand, I load a Nosler 168 gr HPBT Match bullet over 44.0 grains of H or IMR 4895, with the ...

Re: OOPS
I'm going to do a few test firings just to be sure... but I know the rifle will handle it well considering how hot I made my rounds for the 1000 yard match back in 2019.

Re: OOPS
Yes... I do feel foolish! Fortunately, I use Hornady One-Shot spray lube which does not affect powder or primers. So no harm there!

OOPS
I had a nice big loading OOPS this last weekend! I had started loading for Perry, and had 150 Lake City 30-06 cases in the loading trays all cleaned and ready to go! So I set about trimming the cases, and then primed all 150... with primer sealant of course. Then, since I'm working with a different ...

Re: I can smell ...
There's a LOT of things Patton didn't approve of... up to and including shell-shocked GIs taking up space in a hospital (we all know how that one ended up)! Personally, I love Bill Mauldin's work!

Re: Hornaday Interlock 220 grain bullet Sale
That's a great idea Greg! Back in 2018 or 2019, I actually spoke to (and became friends with) a Hornady rep at Perry about the vererable Krag round. At that time, he had revealed to me about Hornady's coming out with loaded 30-40 ammo and brass... which happened that following spring. He told me tha...
