Am I the only one that thinks an M1 Carbine-style rifle chambered in .357 magnum would be fun, a reasonable self defense rifle, and a sweet deer rifle? The old Ruger .44 semi-auto needs to come back into production, too.

Originally Posted By: billt460 No! Extruded powders are the downfall of all Dillon powder measures. They like medium sized ball powders. H-335 is just about perfect. The problem with ALL Dillon measures is they are made from Aluminum castings. The fit between the powder bar and the housing is...

We have been building these where I work. Trust me, the vehicle has much more power in the low end and it's very fun to drive. The interiors are absolutely sweet. Also, don't discount the appearance until you see one in person. It is very well-proportioned and much more aggressive than the ones...

Jeez. I've ran into a few guys that have 5 times that or more through their factory STI barrels. Those are some used guns!

Let's clear the air. Before I start, let me give you full disclosure. I am a mechanical engineer and work at a major automotive manufacturer (Honda). This means I have a firm grasp on physics. I also shoot. A lot. I also handload and have shot the 9mm. A lot. I've also worked on handguns and...

I pick up a LOT of .223/5.56 and 9x19 after 3GN matches. For the .223, I tumble it once without pins to clean them up and dry them in a food dehydrator (much more efficient than the oven and is not weather dependent). I then decap them all and run them through the tumbler again with the...

Does anybody else here think that a few thousand rounds is still considered lightly used?

I've always liked Daniel Defense's newer stock, but I try to eschew anything rubber on my guns. I hate it. Magpul is my typical go-to, and I just get the basic carbine stock or the one with the lock on it. I don't need anything fancy for three gun competition. My newest favorite is what came...
