KB Fab Posted September 18, 2012 Share Posted September 18, 2012 No affiliation but I'm gonna have one of these 14" entry models soon. Cycling 40 year old shells is pretty cool. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StrangerDanger Posted September 18, 2012 Share Posted September 18, 2012 I burned up a few hundred of those older shells with the cardboard hulls. Some of them I had to slap the bolt handle to get them to chamber due to some swelling. They all fired and ejected just fine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a recipe for some 7/8 oz and 3/4 oz rounds and I tried the 7/8's in my M4 the other day. Cycled a full mag without a hitch. Gonna try the 3/4's next but not so sure about them cycling. It's super fun rolling your own tho. Hmmmm.....maybe a good idea for a thread. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
