    I would just clip a couple of ice fishing sinkers to the bottom of my target to keep it from blowing around but that might not be an option where you are.

    Hollywood has always injected contempory melodies and language into "historical" films. It's entertaiment, not History class. Thanks for the review, GM.

    Most of not all 5.56 military ammo has crimped and sealed primers. I would not handload AR ammo to anything hotter than the high end of .223 spec.

    Armalite has a good reputation but the question is: Do you want an A2? I enjoy shooting them but if you don't, you might want to trade it for a carbine or something else.

    I bought mine a few years ago for $395.00 and installed GI grips, hammer and mainspring housing. It's reliable and fun to shoot but I don't use it for self defense.

    Safety first is why I quit using Bullseye because it's easier for me to spot a double charge when using slower burning propellants.

    I never thought it was a good idea to roll-crimp a case that headspaces on the case mouth. AFAIK, all the die manufacturers make taper crimp dies for 45ACP, not just LEE. Mine's an RCBS.
