AZ PewPewPew Meet aka @Mike330R shooting diary

awesome!

i need to get out and throw some lead soon!

 

Had a case blow apart and ruin the frame. Stung the shit out of my hands and black powder all over my hands but no real damage to me.
S&W doesn't sell frames


This 'lil Keltec ran like a champ though:

 

Ouch! Double charge???

 

Looks like another case failure from stepped brass.

Were these reloads? if not, the ammo manufacturer might pony up for a new pistol.


Glad you're not mamed!

 

No idea. I'm usually pretty careful with reloads.

 

They were my reloads. Have made 1000's of them.

 

It does appear by the destroyed case that it could have been a bad case. The whole case separating is odd!
Glad you are alright!

 

Like I said, it's stepped brass. That stuff is a kaboom waiting to happen with even moderate loads.

 

seriously lucky!

 

glad you were ok mike. that looks nasty.

 

Thats a day ruiner right there! Glad you're ok.

 

Damn Mike!
Bummer about the S&W, but more importantly, glad you escaped unscathed!!!

 

Thanks all, yes it could have been a lot worse.

 

Surprise range trip. Threw the AR and 223 bolt gun into a bag and out the door I went! Shot at 8"x10" steel plates at 300 yds and paper at 100. Standing w/ Irons I was hitting the steel at 300 about half the time.

First 3 round group once I had a target out. Not the first shots out of the bolt gun today because I shot at the steel plates at 300yds while waiting for a cease fire.

Followed that up w/ a 10 round group, had a couple fliers but it was breezy and I'm running factory ammo, thats my excuse and I'm sticking w/ it.

 

iron sights are always my backup. all my rifles have iron backups that are zeroed, then optics on top of that. never know when you need em!

 

looks like really good grouping.!

 

wasn't trying to confuse anybody.

I would be overjoyed if i was getting that kind of group from that AR w/ irons and shooting tula steel case!

 

Ah shit I meant to post up about the Brownell's sale today, free shipping and 10% off everything, even sale items, with discount code PJU.

Still have... a few hours??

Wasn't really planning on spending any money on my boomsticks for a while, but I ended up grabbing a BCM Mod 3 grip and some rail covers, and a Geissle airborne charging handle.
My KAC has just been sitting since I got it back from being serviced and I've just been too damn busy (or lazy because it was fucking hot outside) to go run a few mags through it.

 

I've had 'stuff' in my cart for hours.
