      Ruger sfar

      Apparently ruger is stepping back into the 308 AR game. This time building it on a small frame and saving several pounds in the process. Think I need to get my mitts on one of these. https://www.ruger.com/products/sfar/models.html

      Hornady .224 75gr bthp

      available at mid south shooters supply. Price seems a little higher than last time I stocked up on these but first I've seen any in awhile. Still $53 for 250 count in these times aint too bad I guess.

      No more missed archery season

      Had to hang up the hoyt and missed all of last season on doctor's orders.

      First bad primer

      I'm a relative newbie at reloading only about 3yrs now but in the several thousand 5.56 rounds with cci no400 that I have reloaded and fire today was my first primer failure. Rechambered and tried it a couple times still no go. How many of you have ever experienced this?
