    Range Report .300 win mag new load problem

    Try using standard primers, I personally don't use magnum primers. Potentially another issue may be powder fill percentage. My go to load with 190SMK is 68 grs/IMR 4350 and standard primer.

    Tactical M1 Garand??

    The Mini-G by Shuff's Parkerizing is a fun and interesting short barreled Garand, comes with the Schuster adjustable gas plug. It certainly is a better handling Garand, glad I got it.

    Anyone Ordered From DS Arms Lately

    Re: Anyone Ordered From DS Arms Lately I placed an order with them a couple of weeks ago for some FAL tune up parts, received the parts 5 days later. I'm guessing time factor is more about availability than poor service.

    Re: .50 BMG surplus ammo The yellow tip ammo that I have run across has been Dominican and I can say from personal experience it is no fun to shoot, it is loaded really hot. I would not recomend firing it.

    Range Report 308 vs 260

    Re: 308 vs 260 I apologize in advance if i am repeating a point that has already been discussed, but I think that the Turbulence point of these particular cartridges has a significant effect on how quickly throat erosion occurs and hence barel life suffers.

    What's going on with this rifle, REAL or FAKE?

    Re: What's going on with this rifle, REAL or FAKE? It's genuine they made 110V & 110S both were heavy barrel, if I remember correctly 110V's were the varmint calibers of the day and 110S' were larger cals(mine was a .308). It was quite the shooter.
