    Always been sacred to try but honestly the Mauser is built like a tank, 3 massive locking lugs makes me so happy 😂. Safest and most overbuilt bolt action I’ve ever come across

      @@timjr260 You could buy the Basic RCBS reloader kit and for hunting with the 8mmx57 the Barns 185 grain TSX turns this cartridge into a new beast killer.
      Between 165 grain and 185 grain Barns TSX 8mm is great for deer to Elk .
      Powders like Varget - 4350 work well for the 8 mm x57

      I was just looking at that Lyman press to upgrade from my Lee handpress. How do you like it?

    • @CrashRacknShoot
      @CrashRacknShoot 9 місяців тому

      @@b3914eoyprrtoywcdjif 100% worth it. After using the hand press, you're gonna absolutely love it. Couple tiny things to look out for as you use it:
      -the base of the ram has a tiny allen key that locates and locks a cross bolt through the ram, level block, and connecting rods. Every 1000-2000 lever throws, make sure its tightened down. Every hinge point and the ram itself loves lubrication (of course), and that makes the allen head at the very base of the ram loosen up. If that happens, the cross bolt can drift and bite into the connecting rods if you are a monkey brain like me and try to muscle through resistance.
      -"turret tilt" is real. But at least on this Lyman, it's consistent and a tiny flex just from being steel and cast iron so it's really a non-issue. If for some reason you notice the turret tilt too much (read: holy shit the turret is sideways) grab a big ass screw driver, slide it through the main turret bolt on the top (big hole through it) and muscle it a quarter turn to the right and adjust as needed. I have never had to adjust this over about 250k+ lever throws and countless turret spins, but I've heard a couple people have. Easy fix if need be.
      End of the day, buy with confidence and enjoy!

    • @kyfirearms
      @kyfirearms  7 місяців тому +1

      Thanks. Crimping is not really necessary for bolt guns. I crimp everything. I feel like it gives me better powder burn and standard deviations, but it may hurt accuracy somewhat.

  • @morgandellerue5216
    @morgandellerue5216 Рік тому +1

    Is it modern day version? A few more grains of gunpowder will be fine! You start putting half extra grains? “ Here’s a little tip” wrapping piano wire around the barrel will stop it exploding in front of you! Obviously bigger barrels with more metal will perform better! Box cleverly and wear gloves and a vest! And neck and face protection! M🔥👍

      You *can* reload steel if it is berdan primed, but it's a huge pain in the ass. However, if it's say, more recent wolf/tula .223/5.56 and they are in fact boxer primed (only one hole for primer fire to enter case, and anvil in the primer), then it is actually possible to get 2-5 or maybe even more reloads out of steel. With brass, as long as you anneal the necks (heat the necks up in a controlled manner to about 700 ish degrees, and *NOT THE WHOLE CASE)* then you can get dozens of reloads out of a single brass case.

      @CrashRacknShoot Рік тому +1

      That's known as crimping. You put just a tiny bit of tension, known as a crimp, around the top of the neck so the bullet isn't sitting too loose in the case. You ideally want as little as possible so you don't squeeze the bullet. That can result in pressure spikes and/or deformation if the bullet. But too little, and you might chamber the round, and that action could push the bullet too far back into the case (known as setback), also causing a pressure spike which could ultimately make the gun explode.
