Honestly, I've only loaded a few hundred rounds. Most of that was for my Garand. I wasn't worried at all because I found the load in book specifically for Garands. They have all fired and ejected fine and are pretty accurate. I haven't had much time to do load development for my .30-06 bolt action yet but I will over summer. Just take your time and measure the powder charge carefully and then measure the length of your loaded round every so often. I found people shooting .30-06 with similar bullet weights and used their data as a starting point. Just reduce it by 10% and then do the ladder test to find the load that works for you. |

Just finished my AR build from scratch. Just need to go shooting now. Weighs in at 7.4lbs but that's not on a postal scale so I'll need to double check the weight. And I put my XDS .45 (my carry pistol) and my CPX-2 9mm in the photo just cuz

Thanks!
Company out in Missouri called 2 Vet Arms (husband/wife combo of military vets) http://www.2vetsarms.com/ They make full rifles or you can get the upper/lower separate. Or just the upper like I did. Here is the actual upper http://www.2vetsarms.com/product-p/2va-15-recassy.htm

Has anyone painted a weapon with Duracoat or Cerakote? Opinions? Especially in high wear areas. I'm going to camo a 1911 and a rifle, maybe a shotgun as well.

I have my Barrett M95, Saiga 12, FAL and an old model 11 all cerakoted and there is some wear on the sliding surfaces but they're lube points anyway so I don't worry about it. It's good stuff since it doesn't peel and chemicals don't hurt it.
A note you should know though is if you do the barrel you should use air cure and not heat cure, the air cure has a higher temp rating for some reason.
