I thought we had an interloper


speaking of handloading, I've been busy...

 

I'll try to remembers that round. And my car's positive battery terminal is brass... maybe I should stock up on those from walmart, something like $3 each last time I checked. They've got some weight to them, but not sure how pure the brass is.

 

nice goat

i gotta go spend some time at my grandpas next time im home and load up :hs:

 

I wasn't talking about the scrap price. Once-fired brass for handloading has increased in price exponentially in the last couple of years. Rifle brass is worth a lot more than it's weight in scrap prices.

 

I'm currently working on
500rds .45acp
500rds .40s&w
1000rds 9mm
500rds 5.7x28
500rds .223
100rds .223 match
100rds .308 match

I did finish my 50rds .454. I let my supplies get low and I'm playing catch up :hs:

 

what you shooting in .454???

i love my gramps basement, he can reload literally anything, he even makes his own dies and does custom odd calibers all the time .... some of them he gets like 100 bucks for boxes of 20 ... so if you ever need something weird holla

 

I have a Taurus Raging Bull 6 1/2" stainless. Maybe your gramps could help my develop a wildcat. I call it .243LAW. Think of a .243win shortened to be shot out of a 1911.

 

oh nice
and

wat

damn that thing would be insane ... a .243 out of a 1911? that would be interesting. what makes ya wanna try that?

 

it's got a hella nice trigger that's super light thanks to the wolff springs I put in it
I want to penetrate kevlar Mostly just for the fun of tinkering. But the idea is to have an easy conversion that LEO can use to take down armor wearing baddies. It wouldn't have the velocity of a .243 but I think 1500fps is achievable. And it just so happens that my initials are LAW.

 

hmm i wonder how that 454 would stack up against the 44mag my pops just got, that thing shoots like whoa

and yea thats a pretty cool idea, i dont know if my gramps would be good at that extreme of case modification ... he is good at figuring out odd one off calibers and making up rounds from common close calibers
