I got lucky with 200 grain flat points. I was telling my son i need to order some. He said ''you have a bunch''. Sure enough i do. I had a box of 500 on deck. And i have a box 950 125 grain 9mm too.

The 250 grain plated flat nose worked great in it. I did try some 230 grain round nose but they would not feed. They were a little long. Next time i order boolets ill get some 200 flat points.

I bought a Rossi 92 this week in 45 colt. I shoot some plated 250 grain to try it out. Just some off hand shooting at cans about 25 yards out. It did well with them. I also have some 200 grain cast...

I took a look down the bore with my eyes. It looks better than when he 1st bought it over. No more sewer pipe look. I can see the rifling good too. Getting there at least. I just did the boiling...

I often thought about fire lapping. But i do not know how to do so safely. Can Mothers polish be used as a compound?
I have it soaking in Ed's red for now.
Forum: Military Rifles
I soaked the bore with Bore tech while we did some shopping. When i poured it out. It was blue/green. I got 8 dirty patches then. Im going to let it sit now with hoppes 9 in it over night.
