What gun stuff did you do today?

[RackinRay]

That is a happy boy Jake! Congrats.

I got in some 410 2.5 inch brass and some 9.3x74R brass to play with in my Comanche 45/410 single shot pistol. Gonna wildcat that 9.3 to a 11.4x74R and see if I can hit 45/70 type loads from the cheap pistola!

You can shoot 9.3+4R in our supers, didn't know that!!!!! I have yet to shoot any 45 long colt but, will soon. Still my favorite boat gun!!!! Denny

Mailed my Ruger SR9 off to the factory for repair. So far, their CS has been fantastic.

Went to the range after work, ran through about 200 rounds using my timer to practice for next months IDPA qualifier. I nearly cut my single handed shooting times in half vs what I shot at the qualifier, and figured out the POA that works at 20 yards... Was a productive outing

After shooting about 200 rounds yesterday, I figured out that Recluse's 45-45-10 tumble lube formula ain't for me. Spent 2 hours cleaning lead out of the Glock and the Dan Wesson. Glad I didn't get rid of the lubesizer.

What method did you use to remove the lead?

What method did you use to remove the lead?

Brass brush wrapped with Chore Boy copper, with a combination of Hoppe's #9, sweat and foul language.

 

[Seanpcola]

A lot of people forget the foul language and have less than perfect results.

Thanks, I miss it already. It's one of the best shooting pistols I own - accurate, feels good in my hand and has a very nice trigger. Had to send it back because the mag would drop while firing. I may start looking for a SR45. :madgrin:

I totally dissambeled a rifle today and sold it piece by piece on ebay. hate to do that but no interest here and get way more for them by piece anyway.

You cannot. You have to start with the 9.3 as a parent case, fire form it to the chamber as the 11.4x74R wildcat and then start the load development. I plan to do it with black powder, hence the goal is an equal load to the original .45/70; with the 405 grain bullet from Buffalo Bullets as the pill.

My dad was in town today. We went through 800 rounds of pistol ammo today. Great times.

 

[Crazydoc68]

Went up to fort Rucker,AL and shot with 12 other people on their pop up target range. We shot 9200 rounds between us all. It turned out to be a great day. Finally got that elusive 40/40!!! We used old M-16A2's and iron sights. But by god it was fun. At the end it was a free for all. We all were qualified and we still had like 8500rds. So we just started shooting at that point. Found out burst is pretty accurate to about 150yds.

 

[Snow Bird]

Now that sounds like a good day!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Started a personal project for converting the Reloader's Reference software to a more usable web-based application. Converted the databases over from Access to MySQL. Now I have to put together the display code.

And I remelted all those 38 and 45 bullets I had lubed with 45-45-10 and recast them for my 45/70 and made up another batch of real lube.

I've been trying to give someone a good deal on a side charge upper so far this morning...

I plan on working up some 147gr 9mm test loads this evening to chrono this weekend, if the weather will hold out.

 

[HEIST]

Picked up another 1000rds of 22lr from Academy. Hoarding up alittle for a future AR15-22 build I should be starting soon.

 

[Snow Bird]
