You guys just have to tempt fate doncha

An even greater tempt of fate is mentioning a lever gun as a potential platform

i already did that three times and no flames...

granted 500 grains WAS on safari...

Hey Boom..........one thing about it, as heavy as the triggers are on BLR's you wouldn't have to worry about it accidently going off

All I can say is, your fingers in the lever will get violated during recoil

As it is the BLR in 50-110 doesnt "snip" "pinch"
"crunch" "bang" "clip" or hurt my hand or my pinkys during or after recoil and it kicks alot more then my ruger m 77 458 win mag with hot loads in it .

"Most"of the folks here know just like i did when i had that rifle made up that a BLR is not a true lever action it just looks like it
More like a "lever operated bolt action rifle"
But a lever none the less.

Now back to the 470 AR

Wait till someone wants a 45-70 AR and it will hit the fan then

Just wanted to wish the A.R. rounds a

Happy Birthday.


One year ago, on 10/12/05, we started this ball rolling.

Today there are
7 up and running, 4 more in the works, and an order of reloading dies at CH4D.


The 416 can easily beat 2400 with 400gr
The 458 can easily beat 2300 with 500gr
The 470 can easily beat 2300 with 500gr


(oh, Gene, there is a "45/70 AR".. in the 45/70 Nitro)

So when is the 500 AR due? I am bringing the cigars (ammo) for that birthday celebration.

I just received my 458 AR dies last night. This weekend I'm gonna be a case-forming SOB.

That was 25 gr Bullseye, wasn't it Jeffe?

I can top that! I have a Ruger No.1 that weighs 14.75#(with scope) chambered in .257 ACK, With a muzzle brake. I think it actually has negative recoil! haha

While I have your attention, Does anyone need a Stainless/syn M70 7mm Rem Mag? I just happened to have one taking up valuable space!

Just list it in the classifieds as a donar for the AR series.

The AR line of rounds...taking 7 Mags down one at a time. I was impressed when Jeffe dropped an AR round in my factory M70 LH CRF in 7 Mag and it was picking it up out of the mag and trying to feed it.

Just counting the days now until its done.

Does PacNor take Discover card? Packy

That may work in my favor! I am certain it would not stay there long without the temptation to convert it to one of the AR chamberings. Then I could demand my rifle back! Whats your address?

Kelly

happy birthday to the best rounds to come out in decades!

yer a proud papa fer shure

i got 200 saved up for the donor rifle

Boomy,
Kelley has a rifle for sale.....

i had the barrel threaded for a ruger...

which is the same as a model 70

is it stainless???

Congratulations Jeffe!

Absolutely nifty cartridge designs.

My Parker-Hale action is in, as is the trigger and stock. The bottom metal has been ordered (sure hope it will or can be made to work). Will call about the .458 AR dies this afternoon.

Have located a buddy with a Patker-Hale .458 and were going to look at its barrel contour and recoil lugs for good ideas. Thought I'd try to make the barrel band, front sight band, and quarter rib.

We'll see when the barrel can get into the work queue.

Again Jeffe, thanks for the great work!

Boomy,
yep...
Mike,
forgot yours.. make that an even dozen in the works.

kelly...post pics...

i have my heart set on a ruger but if the price is right i can be tempted to stray

for those that dont know...that icon i have is the view down the 470 barrel waiting to be "deflowered"

So 25 ought to give me really sharp shoulders, right?

yer crawfishin Boomy, just get the checkbook out...

Rich

rich...the check would bounce...

until i refinance the house i am on a stretch budget

i am of average means and a first time home buyer and live in california where homes cost as much as small countries...

i could move to one of the square states and have a full gun safe

i have had to cut out a lot of my a.t.f. vices (alcohol tobacco and firearms)

Yeah.. a little too sharp.. but will make it SNOW

Boomy,
email mississipian! btw, texas is more or less boot shaped, not square
jeffe

Whew Jeffe! I spent all of 15 minutes forming the shoulders on 100 458 AR's (including one pee break)...I am pooped...(major sarcasm!!).

After fire forming I am going to attempt to wear the cutter out on the RCBS power trimmer. I thought shooting a wildcat was supposed to be a pain in the butt?

I haven't had too much time to check in lately but I did get a chance to go out and shoot my .416 AR.
I have the rifle and .470 barrel waitin on the go ahead from Jeffe.
I have been forming and fireforming for a few times now and even with the multi-part setup--I haven't gotten the real dies from Dave yet- it isn't hard at all.
Once I get the .470 going (maybe before) I am going to sell off the .375 RUM and a few other rifles in close calibers.
The Ruger 77 works perfectly for this round with no hangups or mis-feeds. I actually had more trouble when making the .358 Norma mag fit the model 77.
You have a major winner Jeffe. Do you think the .458AR will work through a Mark X? Seems like it should clean up the .458 WM very easily.

Hey Frank, think about this...375 Ultra for plains game and the 458 AR for the dangerous stuff. That way you have a barrel stamped 375 RUM and all your ammo matches should you travel abroad.
