  1. welcome to the forum, pull up a chair an' sit a spell. while i've never done a 24/47yugo, i have extensively built m98 large ring conversions. the only reason i use m98 LR is cause i can also use magnum barrels when so desired. there's nothing wrong with the intermediate actions, i would, if i did, build a 308 as you have a wider range of bullets to choose from=100gr plinkers to 108gr. however the 308 really should'nt be loaded with anything larger than 180 as case capacity is limited.the 308 with 150gr's are perfect for hogs and deer size game. enjoy what you build, it's an adventure doing so. ofcourse all this is just my point of view. Dave
  2. can ya imagine how much soda/beer and fries you'll need. what a party that would be. on a lighter note, wonder if you could train it to not be gun shy?

  10. when you retire, where is a good place to hang out. I like the local gun shop. Dave

    New 98k

    kenak 2 = glad to hear of your purchase. i didn't know if there were any mausers left. here at big 5 all they have are mosins. spend the money on the gun atleast for a while the gov don't get it. Dave
  15. my everknowing wife told me that mother nature shoves a plug up their arse hence the sayin to put a cork in it.
  16. jerry, how about making one that expands up and down like an ironing board with a scissor type lock! you could attach it to wagon wheels or a large size kids wagon!
  17. very nice is all i can say. keep up the good work . dave
  18. you gotta love it when your lady gets the looks and hits, makes you feel younger and lucky. Dave
  19. thanks man, I didn't know that. I only have lever and bolt rifles. I thought they did but wasn't sure. which rounds had the steel cases. my dad says they tear up the reload dies.?Dave
  20. old fashioned huh? let's see. I 've loved the same girl for 40 years. huh that's it for now. When the mind wakes up I'll think of some more. Dave
  21. are those for an ak47 or sks? If they're berdan primed, I would assume they would be corrosive. I know the 8mm turks ammo are corrosive. Dave
  22. that is one super fine work of art. Dave
  23. fritz, I too bought a lot of the turks ammo, but I pulled the bullet , then reloaded them for higher velocity. Have you bought a sellier/bellot 8mm's ? they're 196 gr for 8x57's They are great to shoot at 250yrds at 4x4's with 2" red circles. I gave away about 500 rdas of 45 acps. I got them in a shop closeout. I had a source for lead about 4 years ago. We collected 650 llbs of wheel weights. Lots and lots of 1.25lb bars. I also cast my own sinkers and make bass plugs. Gotta go for now, came home sick from work or was that came home sick of work, either way I'm for the day Dave
  24. About 1 year ago midway had 180grbtbt noslers for $11 a box, I bought 25 boxes. They were in 8mm and 30cal. I think on my lats run through I have about 6000 bullets just waiting to get stuffed. A friend sold all his ammo fixins and i picked up 5000 rem standard and 5000 rem mag primers. I do believe I am good to go for the next year or so.
  25. fritz, I bought 2-500rd boxes of rem corelocks for my 8mm's when they were 45 buck /box, same with my 30-30 150's . I know what ya mean them hogs and deer must have gone ta school to be able to tell the diff. Dave
