Posted in thread: Can .50 Cal bullets travel 5 miles? on 12-01-2008 at 02:39 AM
We've already explained this and I retracted my statement...but preference for me is that the
.50 Cal Sniper Rifles are useless...at least for me....far to much recoil....rounds are to
expensive...and...Posted in thread: Can .50 Cal bullets travel 5 miles? on 11-30-2008 at 06:15 AM
Well a ban on .50 I wouldn't really dislike...I mean for civilian use it's basically useless
and to damn dangerous as a gun. Condoning the banning of any gun could leave you with nothing
more than a s...Posted in thread: Loading a 243 semi automatic on 10-26-2008 at 02:11 PM
Load one round in the clip and cycle the action by hand which will load the rifle by putting
that one round in the chamber. Remove the clip from the gun and load it with the four rounds.

4227 in my opinion never was a good powder for a revolver because it will always cause the
problem you are having. My experience with it is that it works much better in a Thompson

Actually I finished taking my CCW class last week, I was gonna check into a crotch holster:D`If
you have room in your crotch for that huge gun and holster you couldn't possibly have room for
very much...Posted in thread: 5.56/.223 Bullet Weights in 1:9 twist barrels on 10-24-2008 at 05:35 AM
I would like to add one comment about the twist issue that most people don't think of and that
is a rifle barrel with a 1 in 12 twist causes a bullet traveling 3000 fps to spin at the
incredible speed...Posted in thread: 5.56/.223 Bullet Weights in 1:9 twist barrels on 10-24-2008 at 01:53 AM
As general rule a faster twist is needed to stabilize a heavy bullet and for no better choice
of words the term I have heard used is that a faster twist "over stabilizes" the lighter bullet

AP 5.7 ammo is restricted to LE/Military. You would be hard pressed to find a non-expanding
bullet on the open market. Most of the ammo that is civi legal is HP or Ballistic tip type.

Yeah, I would suggest using a round, dummy or not, to set head space. That is how any hack
would do it in their garage after a few beers...Seriously, head space is set with a head space

Not really. It's a high velocity, small diameter bullet.I think the folks at FN would argue
with Mark's statement considering it shoots the same diameter bullet as the M 16 and works on
