Re: New R-15 in 204

I have one but with a shorter barrel. I like the gun but the trigger is really heavy, looking to replace the trigger or maybe upgrade to a trigger spring kit for it. My gun is kind of picky to reload for, it does not shoot hornady bullets at all. I have tried several combinations of powder and bulle...

Magazine for AR

What kind of magazine are you guys using to get the longest COAL?

I have some plastic 30 round mags that allow about 2.250 max COAL.

Is there other brands that allow a longer COAL?

Small base die

Anyone out there using small base dies for their AR 204?

If so, where did you get it from?

Re: Help - Serious pressure and ruined my bolt

All brass had been fired 1 or 2 times in this gun. Then neck sized with my collet die. I had actually pulled out 2 or 3 pieces of brass because the primer pocket felt a little loose, not bad but different than the others. I have pulled the bullets in all of my remaining loads and individually weighe...

Re: Remington R-15 204 w/ 22" barrel

I have read BabaOrielys' 50gr Berger load testing in this forum. I agree it is some good info, I should have mentioned that my barrel has a 1 in 12" twist. I belive the 50g Berger need a faster twist than I have.

Thanks for the info, keep it coming.

Re: Case Trimming - RCBS Trim Pro and 3-Way Cutter

I bought a .222 Lee case length tool and turned it down on a lathe. It works alright but not sure if it as accurate as other trimmers.
