KILL KILL!!
What I'm thinking. Might just get a black stock too. Keep it as simple as possible

I used to have my own private range set up in some woods I owned but sold that land a few years ago. Paper targets get boring.

I would like to get me some land and some steel targets

Important tip. Steel targets don't seem to last very long when hit with jacketed .44 mag bullets. Or .357 either.

Had one for my .17 WSM (that I sold gun was JUNK) and other rim fire. My idiot buddy shot it with his .444 Marlin. Bye bye lol

Most public ranges frown on tannerite.

I have a whole bunch of 147 grain FMJ 9mm rejects. They measure .360. Any ideas how to get them down to 356 of so? (without being cost prohibitive)

Some places won't allow human shape targets. SMH

Swaging dies maybe? 9mm is nominally .356 but I know you can get away with .358. You might be able to use the .360's as is if you back off the powder charge a bit.

I was thinking about using them for cheap 38/357 practice rounds. That, and I don't have a 9mm.

They should work fine in .38/.357 but I would be careful and work up loads as I checked for pressure. Shouldn't be a problem if you aren't up to full power .357 loads. Their barrels are a fraction larger than 9 mm anyway (.357/.358).

I still have a bunch of bulk bullets in a lot of different calibers I bought 1000 at a time from Midway.

Seems like a 360 bullet would possibly be a bit tight in the cylinder.

Talk about bulk...my Dad got these off a guy who had a 55 gallon drum of them! The barrel fell off the back of his grossly overloaded pickup and onto I-5. What a mess!

It would be tight but those are jacketed bullets that still have a lead core so can still be compressed a bit. I would test a few with low power loads first though.

I was one of their first customers when they were just getting started. My original account number (its different now) was my zip code plus 001.
