No, go to the last page, then go back 4 pages.
Start reading there but go backwards in the thread, then go back to 4 from the last and read those.
It will make sense.

Later. Running to the mill real quick. Then a few drinks, I'll check it out then. I want to be able to contribute something constructive.
Please tell Randy I say "happy New Year. Broc love you long time" and I will grab my sh*t on Wednesday.
He will know what you mean.
Any leads on .303 British? Finally got some 6.5 Swedish Mauser on TG. Just reupped my membership too.

Those guys are killing it out there. They always list low prices on ammo and guns. Lots of marketing to the NESers (who are most likely to buy) and catchy instagram. They're always pushing cool stuff.
Are you near NH? SGAmmo has PPU 303 in stock and free shipping on $200. Can ship it to the UPS Store in Salem, NH. They may or may not charge a $5 fee for pickup. No account needed and you don’t need to give them a heads up. Just show up, sign, show drivers license pay $5 and leave. I’ve done it a million times so far. Just make sure to put UPS Store in the address 1 line since multiple business are in that same plaza with same address.

With regards to pistol ammo accuracy, I've heard it explained this way.
Say you're making truly horrendous ammo. 5 MOA...
At 100 yards, that a 5" group. (Id be happy af to shoot 5" groups at 100 yards with a pistol)
At 50 yards, that's a 2.5" group.
At 25 yards, that's a 1.25" group.
At 12.5 yards (37.5 feet, or Tuellar Drill distance + >50%) that's a 5/8" group, about the size of a thumbnail.
If it shoots, cycles the gun and doesn't keyhole, (can bullets keyhole at short distances?) then its good for me.

See, that's where you are dead wrong. It's about seducing cats. Wayyy different...
I only had one gun keyhole and I still don't know why.
My 45/70 revolver at 25 yards.
No leading and bullets are sized to .459 ... so weird. Cleaned it, started shooting other bullets and it shoots fine now.

For those of you on the fence about 9mm range ammo...
S&B is down to 25 cases,
GECO is down to ZERO cases. (WOW, went from 27 cases to zero in the time it took to write this post...)

How come we never see federal boxes anymore or any .410 ever? It’s all these brands I haven’t heard of now. Or am I just getting old
Not likely to happen.
Not just you. I asked the same thing a few days ago.

Minus your $$ time...
I bought all the shit to do it, but then life took over again.
$200/case and I stock up lol and still have time to run a business....
I'll admit, I am pretty lazy as well.

I love s&b just because of the small packaging lol
The fact it shoots well and has a fancy European name is just frosting on the king cake.

"Small packaging"? What?
The French name is a turnoff, actually. King cake? Who ARE you?
Is this "Frenchman" with a new screen name?
The S&B wastes no space, easy to stack in a safe.
It has been discussed several times. If you have to take time off work to reload, it doesn't make sense.
But I make tons of money and want to get paid to do something that makes me happy. Quit pissing on my cheerios.
This is NES, sir…where small packages rule the day.
I personally prefer the gargantuan packages myself…because when I fill up an entire closet in my house with primers, it makes me feel like a man.
Interesting. The only place I can think of in central MA that might do this is maybe WP&R. Is that something you just show up and do, or do you have to join it like a league?
Show up and shoot. Don't even worry about having all the right gear, just let then know you are trying it out.
There are a lot of clubs doing it, check out Practiscore.
It slows during winter, picks back up around April.
