Re: 1899 Krag and young buck

Re: Me and the K31

My K31 is the most accurate milsurp that I have. It even shoots better than my unlimited class Garand that's Steel Bedded into a laminated stock.

Re: Chamber Obstruction in 1898 Krag Rifle

Pinkish, probably red bullet lube. When I first started shooting cast at low velocities and pressures, I noticed lube blowing back on cases and it built up after awhile, leaving a discernible mark that grew further down the case as I shot more till it was about halfway down. I was using black lube a...

Re: WW2 ammo can

I have a lot of that IK brass, good stuff. I have some a fellow gave me some that need to be inside neck reamed. I guess they were full length sized enough times that the brass has been pushed up into the lower part of the neck. If a bullet is loaded that goes all the way through the neck the OD is ...

Re: Special Ammo this fall

One of my other interests, there are quite a few very good for a person plant chemicals within the mix known as pumpkin pie spice. Cinnamon, cloves, ginger, allspice, nutmeg. 976 biologically active chemicals, some of them shared by the spices in the mix. I believe there's a trace of the mix in toda...

Re: Rahimi

I"m getting much better at this bean soup stuff! Put enough things like onions, peppers, carrots, tomatoes, mushrooms and various spices and it becomes quite flavorful. I've also been able to increase my intake of medicinal weeds by tossing some of them in the pot. Good stuff like mugwort and y...

Re: Rahimi

Oh, oh. It appears my little friend is in more trouble than what he realizes! The state Attorney General has stepped in as prosecutor! I'm guessing that BCI has been involved, hope he gets to meet some of my shooting friends! I'm told he fudged the Sheriff's computer system on his way out! I've not ...

Re: Rahimi

I cannot answer that question at present. His place got raided last week, flash bang style, they're likely not done inventorying items. I am not allowed to contact the Sheriff, according to terms of the protection order the detective got. I'll just patiently wait, when SCOTUS rules on Rahimi, I'll p...
