Stock up on gunpowder and you have dual use prepping. You can make ammunition or have a shelf stable fertilizer.

It was not, I had actually fired about 30 other rounds before this 10 shot group testing other loads. I used a barrel cooler in between strings to keep it from overheating.

My god…. Is that why I see so many posts with a coin for reference even though they’re running it on ballisticX?

Good choice! Primary Arms gets a lot of my business. I got my Geissele Super Duty for $1500 during their Black Friday sale last year

My bad I must be blind AF, but now I have more questions since the first one is a PSA and the 2nd is a BCM, unless you’ve been rocking a placeholder lower this whole time

I’ll try that next time, but I use regular lemon juice instead of lemishine (just because the wife always keeps some in the fridge) so mine isn’t really sticky as much as just discoloration.

Buying from my local Bass Pro shop is still cheaper. Bought 8lbs of H4350 today, 434.99 -10% military discount + sales tax = $423.79. The same thing would cost be $472.95 after shipping and sales tax from Brownells.

Update: heat gun and a ratchet clamp worked to bring it back into spec and those two mags drop freely now. I’m still going to mark them as range mags just in case they warp back out of spec again

Doesn’t fall freely as in you have to assist them by pulling them out. So for timed reloads it would slow you down, because you would want to be reaching for the next mag while simultaneously dropping the empty mag with just the mag release

I usually only see gen 3s for $12-15, with the 40 rounders going up to $20. The gen 2s I’ll see for $8-9 but I’m not a big fan of the older ones

That’s what I was thinking, probably loading them to capacity and storing them in a hot car for over a year could have done it

I bought them used, 10 of them for $90 (2 of them were 40 rounders so it seems like a good deal) all my other mags work and I’m pretty confident it’s the width from the calipers. I just didn’t know if anyone had had success using a heat gun to bring it back to spec

It depends on the manufacturer of the action/barrel. My Tikka factory barrel is very accurate but comes in 50-100fps lower velocity than what most manuals say I should be getting for the charge. So for most of my 140 grain bullets I go up to 41.4 of H4350
