That One Dude

Can a Savage 110 long action that is already barreled in 270 Winchester be re-barreled to 300 Win mag if the bolt head is also changed to accept magnum cartridges?

I'm trying to find an FMJ spitzer in boat tail to reload for my 8mm mauser. My bore slugs out at .324 but the only spitzers I can find are in .323. Does anyone know of a source where I can find them in .324/.325? I currently use cast ammo and it works great but I want to get something going in FMJ.

have an SKS real tree stock will the buttpad come off?

I am running Ubuntu 10.10 and have one of those Edimax nano USB wireless cards installed. It works great, until I have to reboot. Once I reboot I have to unplug the USB wireless, plug it back in, then run modprobe to get it to activate again. If the lid is closed and the laptop goes into suspension I can open the lid up, hit the power button, and the wireless kicks in automatically and works. Anyone know what configuration file I can use or a script I can make to allow Ubuntu to just activate the card automatically on boot without having to do this over and over again?

Someone is selling this but doesn't have the make and model info available because it is not with him at the moment. Just says it has a 55lb pull and a drop away guide. I was looking for something to get as a beginner at archery and this guy is selling it for $75.

Tried Gunbroker, Smith and Wesson's website, Ebay and no luck. Can I use a spring from another 12 Ga. semi auto to replace it with?

I was thinking it's Zeiss but I cannot find anything out about this all I know is its marked MKV Germany.

Preferrably with a lighter spring? My M24/47's bolt is smooth after it's been c0cked but cocking it is pretty tough. I heard Wolff makes a replacement spring but hear it is supposed to be a tighter spring than the one that is already in there. Any suggestions for reducing the tension on cocking the bolt?

Damn the YA filters!

Russian POSP 8x42 with illuminated range finder reticle?

or

Russian POSP 3-9x42 with illuminated Mil-Dot reticle?

I would get slightly better magnification with 3-9 but I was partial to the range finder style reticle.

It is being mounted to a modified Yugo mauser with a POSP style side rail.

how much workflow will the iPad hold? Can it handle a heavy workflow or is it designed for moderate to light workflow?

Gimme your best SHTF weapon and why? I choose my 8mm Mauser for reliability and I can reload my ammo for it, what's yours? Feel free top debunk someone else's choice but make it good and truthful so it can let us all think outside the box. I'm really looking for good supportive arguments for a particular firearm and I'm intrigued to see how other gun owners think about their choices.

is made out of? Looking to go cheap and use a homemade solution for ultrasonic case cleaning or does Birchwood Casey brass cleaner do the same thing?

Can someone please look up a caliber for me? 100-102Grain lead cast boolit 380 auto/browning/kurz, what brand/type of powder and what are the min and max powder charge ranges for it? I know I need to get my own handbooks but for now if someone can get me started on this one please It only has 2 powder types in the Lee reloading handbook and I cant find those powders.

Thanks!

on hard cast lead rounds of the same bullet weight? I will be at 850 fps velocities so nothing too fast.

I have 100 grain hard cast boolits and need to know if I can use the same load data for a powder that I have on my sheet that is recommended for 100 grain FMJ. The ones on my load sheet that is recommended for cast boolits is out of stock at my local shop and they seem to be having a hard time getting powders now. Got a bunch of IMR powder which would work for a 100 grain FMJ and would like to use that. Should I down charge the minimum IMR charge by a couple of grains?

To press through a full-length resizing die to make cases for 7.62 x 39 or even 5.45 x 39? I don't need the lecture about why one would need to do this when you can go get a case of Wolf for $180 bucks I just want to start working with case resizing to further my own knowledge about ammo making.

Also anyone know of any negative repercussions for shooting gas checked hard cast boolits through an AK such as clogging the gas port? I already know about the NATO primer requirements with free floating firing pins so got that covered.

I plan on starting to cast 45 ACP and I know that cast rifle rounds or magnum pistol rounds need to have gas checks but would a 45 ACP need them?

What are some good sources for primers, bullets, and powder for reloading that wouldn't have a long backorder?

What would be a good scope to put on a scout mount? I'm installing it on a Mauser

I would like to get a bent bolt handle on my Yugo M24/47 Mauser so I can install a scope (non-scout mount) but unfortunately without bending it myself the M24/47s only have straight bolt handles. Suggestions?
