223 Swaged bullets

This 3/16" steel plate was shot at 100 yards using our very own 223 55 grain swaged bullet with a velocity of 3150fps. Our swaged bullet are made from spent 22lr cases with a lead core. From start to finish it takes 8 steps to make a bullet but we don't mind when we get results like this. 

The brass case forms the jacket of the bullet. Brass has a higher zinc content than copper which lessens the friction between the bullet and barrel. Less friction equals longer barrel life. The down side is they cannot be loaded to velocities over 3200fps. Any velocity over that and you run the risk of the bullet coming apart. 

We currently have 52gr-56gr bullets in stock. Ready for you to load with your favorite powder. They are packaged in 100 count bags and are for sale for $20 per bag. If you need them shipped we will ship them priority flat rate. 

Old to New again Marlin 22 Semi Auto

I'm going to start working on an older Marlin semi auto 22 rifle. I will post a whole series of photos from start to finish of this project just to show how an old gun can be made new again. The barrel will be shortened, recrowned with a target crown, and a new stock. All internal parts will be cleaned, polished, checked for wear, and replaced if needed. Once all of that has been completed the rifle will be refinished in Cerakote. I'm still decideing on the color. Might finish the stock in Cerakote as well. One thing that I can't make up my mind on is weither or not to put a scope or red dot on it... Any thoughts?

Competition 38 special

Well I finally finished this project today. I love the look of this gun with the grips. Next step now is to fire it and get it sighted in for it's new owner. That's right, this bad boy is for sale!

Remington 700 308 Winchester

Here is a 3 shot group from this custom Remington 700 chambered in 308 Winchester. Just about finished with the break in on the barrel. I'm pretty happy with the results thus far. This rifle has Weaver Tactical rings and a Nikon Buck Master 4.5-14x 40 mil-dot scope.

Custom Cetme 308

Well here is the Cetme 308 with the camo paint finished. Only thing left to do on this is the matte clear coat.

The latest Marlin 30/30

I just wanted to take a moment and share these pictures of my latest 30/30 project. The barrel is a factory camo barrel and the rest was finished with Cerakote.

Cetme .308 Project

Here we have a Century Arms Cetme rifle. This rifle was purchased as a project and like all the reviews on the net about Century Arms it's a crap shoot whither you get a good rifle or not. Well this one turned out to be a pretty good one. The factory finish wasn't that great, the but stock was cracked and the actions was so tight and dirty that it was almost impossible to work. I completely disassembled the gun and within the next 4 hours I was covered with grease, grime, and oil. The head space on the rifle checked out to be right in the middle of the tolerances so I was happy about that. These rifles from Century have been known to have false head space, as in they grind down the bolt just enough to show a correct head space. I then started the work of lapping the action. Now a person who doesn't lift weights all day can work the action. The trigger is a Two stage trigger that like the rest of the gun was dirty and felt like a 20lb pull. Cleaned the trigger pack up and polished it and now I think that I can live with the trigger pull. I have started the refinishing project on this rifle and when it is done it will have a custom camo finish. I've only put three rounds through it but it functioned beautifully. Once the gun is completed I'll post another picture and then this bad boy will be up for sale.
