Just curious while saving for a better scope, will a bushnell tactical 10x40 holdup on this for now ?? Limited shooting as well
Misses? I never miss. Or do you mean Mrs. ?
Hey, that reminds me of a conversation I had with the owner of a Lahti L39 anti tank rifle, in 20x138B (Belted)
( https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QS7ss47xmik Starting at 45 sec mark. )
He said he bought a 100lb drum of surplus 20x102mm Vulcan powder, and was quite pleased with his good supply.
Then he said each round uses about 700 grains of powder.
I did the math in my head and replied "So about 1000 shots worth."
"No, a way more than that!" he said.
So I said that a lb is 7000 gr, so 10 shots per lb, times 100 lb equals 1000 shots.
"Damn! I should have bought more powder!"
Looking at 20mm reload components/ammo available in the states (http://www.cdvs.us/20mm-Vulcan-elect...case-P651.aspx).
$5.95 USD per casing
$19.95 USD resized unprimed per casing
$127.95-227.95 USD for 100 primers
$29.95 USD per round for target practice round (inert projectile)
Holy Hanna I like to dream expensive!
IIRC, CDVS used to be called Big Sky Surplus, and they were overpriced back then too.
What would one reasonably expect to pay per round for 20mm?
