[QUOTE=LefthandShooter;1051561]When you fire the Mosin there are two types of gass escaping. The kind from the end of the barrel, and the gas with the other stuff from the guy in the next range, followed by "WHAT THE HECK WAS THAT!!!!!!!". QUOTE]


i did get that from everyone else at the range, especially the poor guy in the next stall. He had an AR15 he was shooting and made a big production of seating his magazine when i sat down.
i think i saw him jump when i touched off the first round
he leaned over after a few seconds and said the fireball was visible a good 6 feet in front of the muzzle

"IS RIFLE...IS NOT FOR SHOOTING POODLES!!!"

with this stuff, most definitly. i've probably pulled down 30 or so cartridges from this batch for neck splits, bady dented casings etc.
this round looked just fine when i looked it over.

i'd hate to go into battle with this stuff, the rim thicknesses vary so much that i have a few rounds i can't close the bolt on.
real good quality control
