Title: Just for laughs
Post by: gadabout on September 05 2021 01:46:38 PM MDT
I have gotten to  know a man at the local gun shop and we were talking the other day about reloading with nothing available for reloading. He stated he had some 10mm empty brass and no use for it as he is really into 45. I got with him today and bought the brass from him. I didn't know about quantity or make but it ended up 50 rounds of Brasier brass in the box. I bet if I looked I could find 50 rounds on the floor of my reloading room. Oh well I paid him 5.00 for the trouble more than anything else and I do have something to load!!!!!  Craig

I bought enough to make 1500 rounds when the pandemic started. I'm too scared to go shoot them because it's so hard to replace it.

Absolutely, I?m sitting on a ton of 10?s for the same reason. Am primarily shooting.22 at this point, only because I have a bunch of Mini Mags 😀

Between the G44 and the Walther PPK/S .22LR, I?m having a blast without breaking the bank

I also have a bunch of nice 22's I will shoot them more as I have a few thousand 22 rounds laying around.  Craig

I was trying to shoot a S&W M&P 22 but it jamed on the first clip. I had forgotten you have to use more powerful 22's with this gun and the empty rounds wouldn't eject at all. I had other rounds but and empty got stuck in the chamber so I had to go home to get it out which took me like 15 seconds to do. Nice gun and I will shoot it maybe today. Had my 9mm witness with me so I shot that a little. Craig

BTW the forum got screwed up yesterday and I couldn't post as it wouldn't recognize my password but all better now.

BTW I was working on the 10mm Braser brass and guess what??? Small primer holes so they are not much good to me right now as I have no small pistol primers. Also I am having to log into every page of the forum, real bummer.  Oh well/  Craig

Vista Outdoors subsidiaries (Federa,l Blazer, & Speer) use small primers in their 10mm. I have mostly Starline brass, but also 100 pcs of Federal. I've shoot the same load over my chronograph using both primer sizes - didn't record an appreciable difference.
