Anybody get anything cool that is gun-related today?

62gr 5.56 vs 200gr 300blk...you can see how a mag designed for the one on the left may not work so well for the one on the right.

Indeed I can (had no idea they're available in such large bullet weights). All I've seen (IIRC?) were 110gr and 125gr in 2k+ velocities.

Not sure if this counts but dug out an old Bianchi X15 for a 6in K frame today. Pretty scuffed up but the spring is still super tight. To bad it is not for a 1911 or my P89.

After determining that I really liked the way it cleaned https://www.okshooters.com/threads/i-tried-a-new-to-me-bore-cleaner.313484/ I was unable to find any more in town and all of the mail order places I deal with regularly were sold out but I finally located some at Midsouth Shooters Supply and three bottles @$5.26 each + shipping arrived today.

I think I'd only ever ordered from MSSS two or three times in the past but I'll be ordering from them again if they have something I need......they were fast to ship, the box had lots of packing material and each 5oz. glass bottle was vacuum sealed in it's own heavy plastic bag.

Super cheap Turkish auto. After transfer fees I have around 160 in it. Now to see if it will cycle or be a paper weight.

Let us know the outcome. I heard you have to break them in with some heavy loads. Where did you find it so reasonably priced?

Got it off Gun Broker. They have some buy it now for 150 but the shipping on those are kinda high.

Got some Oxpho Blue cream from Amazon.

So far, I am 3 for 3 on the Turkish shotguns. 2 O&U's and one Pump. I have been eyeballing that model for the price though. Felt solid to me.

.300 Blackout ammunition is available in 110, 125, 147, 150, 190, 200, and 220 gr. weights. (There may be others that I've forgotten.) Those above 190 gr are subsonic, IIRC, and feed easier from dedicated .300 BLK magazines. I've found that 150 gr. rounds also feed easier from dedicated magazines.

Another advantage of having separate magazines for .223/5.56 and .300 BLK is that it greatly reduces the possibility of mixing up the different rounds in your gun. Since I'm planning to build a .223/5.56 rifle I need to be mindful of that. I may switch to Lancer mags for .300 BLK and use Pmags exclusively for .223/5.56. If I do, I'll have some .300 BLK Pmags for sale.
