What’s your Oal, bullet length, and load grain weight? Also if those are the hollow base lehighs maybe put one on your scale hollow base up and measure the weight of the water it’ll hold…. Would want to add that to the capacity in the cartridge..

>Id have to do some reading on the maks, to see how spicy they can go.
A quick glance suggests it could handle .380 +p levels quite easily. The basic 95 grain 9x18 Makarov loading is about 1,000 fps with 250 lb/ft muzzle energy. The basic 90 grain .380 +p is around 1,100 fps and 260 lb/ft.

You can convert berdan to boxer, but its a royal bitch to do. Theres new made stuff you can get thats boxer, or once fired if youre not a pussy. Try and get some greek surplus, has HXP on the base. Boxer primed, thick cases.

Measure out a new factory load/properly sized+trimmed reload before firing, then measure the fired case OAL to get an idea of how much headspace you have.

Or take it to a competent gunsmith and have them do it for you.

>>65046635
You can get around that by annealing periodically. 303 isnt any harder than any other necked rifle cart, use plenty of lube on sizing and youll be fine.

Ought to use .311 or .312 bullets, .308s might be too small for the throat

Lee undersized dies are awesome!
The brass failed even after being resized with my RCBS die. Lee "U" die and they're good to continue with the rest of my brass.
Unsure if I'm going to do all of my .357 brass in them like I do my .45 Autos, we'll see.

Just bought this little bastard for 140$ but i dont know how i should sharpen my straight razors with it. Should i have the wheel turning towards the edge or towards the spine? Should i just try to do modified x strokes?

>>65048073
To be clear, when i use my flat whetstones to sharpen/hone my straight razors, i do a few sets of runs on each side followed by x strokes on each side and then repeating. But even when i start with 800 grit or lower then move up to 4000 and 8000 grit, i cant get my straight razors that sharp, even if i spend a fucking hour running them through the prescribed process. So im hoping i can speed up the process with my rotating wheel whetstone. I just ordered 3 new gold dollars from alixprs for like 10$ so im hoping they will be a good option for learning on, but im still not sure if i should just try to replicate the standard flat whetstone process on my rotating whetstone or if i need to be doing something completely different.

In the context of being used by an inexperienced user trying to do delicate work...yes; In the context of being used by someone proficient with it...no. So to satisfy your pedantic ass, no, electric sharpening wheel, in a vacuum, in and of itself, isnt too fast for the task it was created to do. However, if given to a novice, chances of said novice fucking up his job (removing too much material and fucking up the geometry) is much higher with it than him doing the same job on a stone in the same amount of time
>>
>>65048195
I already know how to sharpen razors on whetstones, i just dont have the patience for it bc i dont think im gifted in the consistency department which is needed for succeeding in flat whetstone use. I think i actually would be more consistent using the wen whetwheel i bought than i would be using my flat whetstones. Im thinking if i swap out the 200grit wheel whetstone that comes with the product and swap in a 3000grit wheel whetstone, i can do the heavy lifting setting the bevel more quickly and then try finishing carefully on my 8000 and 12000 flat whetstones.

>>65048246
Im op btw
>>
>>65048246
Well that could be one way of doing things. Out of curiosity, since you have experience with manual sharpening, but say you lack consistency...did you look into fixed angle sharpening systems?

Everyone that shot an MP40 full auto knows that it's Superior to any of the Russian garbage that came out of world war II.

Sorry, but when an objective look at the past 40 years tells a particular story, and that story is about France constantly being the one to fuck it up.

PROTIP: if you have carried a gun over a year without shooting your cock off, you aren't handling it enough. Painting your thighs red is a natural part of handling weapons, just like tweaking your back is part of weightlifting and car accidents are part of driving. My crotch looks like a Ken doll because I actually HANDLE and know how to USE my weapons. It makes me a better firearms handler and lover, and it's a small part of the price you pay
in the sheepdog lifestyle. Simple fact is, the "safety mentality" will build mental blocks in your head that will
get you killed. You need to be comfortable putting your finger on the trigger and pointing the gun straight into your twig and berries no matter the time, place, or status of your danglies. Taking time to check whether your shirt gets caught when you re-holster will serve to make you hesitate in a personal defense scenario. You fucking safety idiots are going to get people killed all because of this fucking "tranny gash" shaming. Guns are inherently dangerous, you need to accept it.

I have not been paying attention to the pump-action/semi-auto shotgun scene in like a decade. I have my Over-under duck-.hunter and so far it has been fine enough.

But recently I have been thinking that I might want to upgrade to either pump-action or semi-auto model. And since I have not been paying attention, I have little knowledge about "how good is the tech" and "What are the models worth considering".
Like, I have had this old (admittedly unfair and biased) view that semi-autos are unreliable and you should at least demand a back-up pump-action feature. But I recognize that these days semi-autos can be considered reliable and I shoudl rid myself of these biased thoughts.

So... What are the modern standards for a semi-auto shotguns (with possible "this pump-action is still better" options)?
Key categories:
1) The unassuming "basic bitch" models that are reliable and will pass the innocent "it's just a duck-hunting gun" test. The relatively inexpensive ones.
2) Gucci bling models, where it's still a "hunting model, but a fancy one". can be with extra features.
3) "The Tacticool option", where you have pistol grips, extended mags, rails, bells and whistles.

I am not looking for some "home defense model", but since the world is getting to be a bit more dangerous these days, options for such can not be overlooked.

Give me your selection of decent shotties.
>>
>>65048286
Assuming you're talking about normal shotgun things like hunting or shooting clays a break-action double is the ultimate. Pump guns and semis are downgrades. Double guns have a number of advantages.
-the second shot is instantaneous and cannot jam, misfeed, or short-stroke
-the second shot is instantaneous even if the first shot is a dud or some kind of mechanical failure
-you can have two different chokes in the same gun at the same time and can choose which one to use for a given shot
-the presence of a bolt wastes space in a pump or double gun. Getting rid of the bolt means you can have longer barrels for the same overall length, or you can have the same barrel length as a pump/semi but in a shorter better-handling package.

Now that said, cheapo doubles suck, so if you have some flavor of turkshit then you can absolutely do better.

>semis are unreliable
IMHO this is a meme. I own several semi shotguns and all of them happily cycle everything from cheap target loads to the magnum hunting stuff. I wouldn't consider semis to be unreliable, except of course turkshit.

>options for such can not be overlooked.
A semi-auto rifle is a much better fighting weapon. The "shotguns for home defense" meme is literally decades old. It came from a time when Semi rifles like AR's were rare and expensive. That is not the situation today.
