    M40a5ish advice?

    Hmmm I also have a A3/A5ish project going on as well. The above is all good advice, but…. I’m a DYI type guy and find doing it myself overly satisfying and stimulating. With that said I also have good support from my circle of fellow shooting junkies. If your in the same camp as I am I say go...

    hmmm, I load for the Wife unit’s RR/NM AR/15 and I use 77SMK under 23.2 XBR in a LC 2017 case with a Fed primer. At the last ATC Match I discovered 5 cases missing there primers out of the 88rds fired. And no I didn’t scoop up someone else’s brass. When I say missing I’m mean gone as there...

    Safety Warning for Berger 77 grain OTM: Pressure Testing Update

    Hmmmm, looks like they just pulled one round, and weighed the charge that is my impression.….. I would have done 10 samples and used the avg. if it came out the same weight as the first then I would have said ok that was a waist of my time.

    Petersen case, Fed primer, 42.5 IMR-4064 dribbled up, 175SMK, 2.82 coal. Sorry no chrono data and for the poor/sloppy trigger control. I was getting baseline dope on the scope. These are the first 5rds, I think load development is done?

    1 in 9 twist 20 inch Hbar and 77 gr bullets.

    In that case you can run with just about everything you want too, just know that the 77’s might not agree with your barrel.

    1 in 9 twist 20 inch Hbar and 77 gr bullets.

    With a 1/9 tube it’s hit or miss with the 77’s. Those that I have seen that didn’t they did prefer the 75’s, so with that said your going to have too find out for yourself.
