and that fosters is produced in montreal. lol what is a proper authentic, made in australia, beer? i had some good beer in canada on one of my trips. was called charrington toby. cant find that here hardly ever.

30 round mags? why would any wally need a 30 round mag? here in the land of oz, we just take the roo out with the first head shot, sling the carcass in the ute, chuff off home, stick it in the freezer, have a beer, off to bed, quick love-ya-darlin root, and a good nights sleep....30 round mags, yuk, yuk, yuk, they're fantasising  about being in 'ghan or somewhere......jazsus wept...

WTF? pretty funny except you forgot to mention the beer is a Foster's, that's the only beer in aussie land isn't it.

Oh you poor schmuck Yankees!! ... We shipped out fosters cos its crap... However it seems to be suitable for you Budweiser  swilling commoners .... Fosters is good marketing... Not good beer

the new tag line. " fosters, australian for crappy beer." i still like charrington toby. had it at a dinner party in alexandra ontario. gotta love our hat for having some good beer on tap. i despise buttweiser. traced my family name to 13th century german beermakers. amongst other things in teh social classes of the time.

JHC! Charrington Toby....well if ya need a 30 round mag to go chasing those dangerous rabbits I suppose I simply can't criticise ya for enjoying Pommie horsepee, must hark back to yer years of technical Budweiser training.  One good thing to say for the Poms though, they ain't into spraying the bushes with surplus lead - nice little Purdy 410 o/u... handfull of cartridges in the back pocket of the Burberry...off ya go for a clean, civilised day's shooting on the moors...beautiful. Those pommie landed sheilas we see in Downton are pretty grouse too eh?
PS
American chums, a big ask, awlright?, Please don't mention Fosters publicly..we dumped the company for a motza onto some South African drongoes who thought they were getting a bargain...jeeez, we all peed ourselves over that. They can't get their money back anyway 'cos we've spent it!
PSS You Yankee blokes would like the Souf Arrikaaans, they're a bit like youse with the 50 round mags on their R4s. gawd, we used to pee ourselves laughing at them too.
Amyway, ooorooooh, gotta go and reload a couple of 155 we're going to use down the backpaddock on a few crows....tough buggers, those crows.

[yamahonkawazuki]

alrighty then . anyhoo huff, will text you when i find out what mags and ammo weve got in stock. anyone else.  lmk if looking for magazines or ammunition. ill see what i can find. i dont charge a finders fee or fees for handling the sale. cause im selling the inventory of my boss. he gets the money, i in turn get paid. but  tehh guns are moving fast. as are ht eclips an dammo. sent out a bunch of ruger 10/22 25rd mags the other day.

I like how people waited outside my store at 3 in the damn morning when it was 30 degrees just to try to buy ONE box of ammo. Imbeciles.

Gun thread needs a cat machine gun.

You've seen that cool looking fake video of the guy "saving" the bike rider from death with a truck? Got any like that but with cats?

[slipperymongoose]

The guy who did it does others like it as well. Filming a security cam monitor showing amazing feats. Good work!

Oh please addy mate that's as bad as those dodgy spark plugs you were trying to flog off lol. Now back to the guns. Who here reloads?

I do. Just loaded up 200 round of .41 Magnum a couple weeks ago. 100 loaded with a 215 gr SWCs over 5 gr of TiteGroup, and the other 100 loaded with 210 gr Speer DeepCurl JHPs over 21.1 gr of H-110.

how many times can you reload a casing?, and why not steel?

Until it splits or deforms. Or, in my case, accidentally smushing the rim seating the bullet too quickly.

[mister]

The steel casings I've got are all coated in a thin layer of paint or something. I assume to prevent rust. So you would always be fighting rust if you wanted to keep them for reloading


Also, as steel is harder than brass of imagine resizing the neck our whatever during reloading would be a pita.

[Janx101]

I wouldn't bother reloading steel cases.... They get stuck on the resizers .. They wear all the dies quicker, they 'usually' have twin flash holes in the primer pocket .. So if you forget you smash the deprimer pin ... Yes as mister says they rust ... The steel changes temper as you try to keep reloading them .. Resulting in cracking, splitting and separting and then some spectacular swearing trying to get the front half of a case out of the breech!!!


If they cheap to use ... Just be happy that they throwaway units and leave it at that....

Buy your brass when it's cheap and save them up for loading later .... Buying only loaded brass to reload is a bigger upfront hit to the pocket ... And you still have to hope you can get a good group out of the factory load...

[Huff1371]

+1 on not reloading steel cases. If you get them to actually load they crack, rust, misfire, etc.. The steel fatigues and really is not worth the risk. Imagine bending a crappy paper clip back and forth, thats what happens to them. as far as brass you can load them a few times before they begin to go out of spec due to sizing and trimming, at which time the usually only crack without much consequence.

What he said.

[Kijona]

Also would like to mention the fact that the steel used in casings is typically inexpensive (hence why steel case ammo is always the cheapest) and brittle. Rather than splitting apart like brass, it will actually chip off and fly down the barrel. I've seen this with some TulAmmo in 7.62x39. The neck of the case broke off and went down and out of the barrel. Obviously this is bad news for the gun. Not that it was reloaded, either. It was brand new.
