Â
Merry Christmas from the folks here at Ultimate Reloader! Hoping that you all are having a great day with family celebrating all that this season is about.
Anyone get anything great that they want to share about?
Thanks and safe holidays,
Gavin
Picked up a Dillon 550B on eBay and some nice new RCBS small base X-dies in 223 Rem for my new Stag AR. Only had time to load a few rounds before the holidays–can’t wait to get back to it! Keep up the great work, Gavin!
Bought myself all the tools I always wanted for my ARs. Snap caps, cleaning stuff, wrenches, punches, vise blocks, etc. Feels good to have a complete toolkit.
Also received an iPad. Anyone know of any sweet apps for guns/reloading?
Nice bokeh. What camera gear are you using?
Thanks DK- right now my main camera is a Canon EOS 7D. I get a lot of use out of my Canon 50mm f/1.4 and a Tamron 28-75mm f/2.8.
Got myself the new Hornady bulled feeder. Santa brought me the new Hornady reloading manual, and a new gun cleaning kit.
I decided to build myself a new AR for Christmas. I can’t deny that the AR-MPR series had an influence on my decision to build, as it was my first. I decided to build the upper primarily from Daniel Defense parts. I went with their A3/A4 receiver, bolt carrier group and 16″ barrel. The mid length gas tube is connected to a Troy low profile gas block, shielded by a free floating 13″ Troy TRX Extreme rail. For the lower, I purchased an Armalite M15 with their two stage trigger. On Christmas day I ordered myself a TA31F ACOG. I have yet to decide on which backup iron sights I’ll have.
The best part about this rifle is how light it is. I expect to weight about 6.5 pounds, optics included.
