I sure as hell hope someone else is packing my chute cause I don't know zip about it, I jump out, count to whatever the count is that day and pull the handle............after that it's all trust, so far so good.
I met a young diver from the US that was doing some tricky underwater work on the dam and intake here years ago, He did let it slip that he had been US military trained, and I would pretty much bet he was a seal at one point, but he flatly denied it and would not talk about it at all. He was very knowledgeable about firearms and was an avid reloader as well as an avid hunter, hence our in depth conversation.
My point being is that those who are or were special forces/snipers are VERY reluctant to speak of it. I shot sillhouette against an ex marine sniper in Fairbanks many years ago, he kicked everyones a$$. One of his teammates let it slip with an off comment "what do you expect from an old sniper". I plied him with much beer after the shoot and he did share some info about his equipment that he used in the military but NEVER alluded to any exploits what-so-ever.

I was just joking around when I said You Do Not NEED a permit .. As in there is lots of guys out there reloading and selling the shells too buddy down the road .
I have no doubt it is against the law .. Just I have never heard of any one having problems buying handloads .

Mike,, phone him up and ask if he'll reload a couple of 105 rounds for me,,,
my bad was norma..
never ran the 10 there was one handed out to a member of a platoon as trial for dm though. he was qualified just not in the cell. no timberwolf at that time just the c3 and the tac .we had norma match for the c3. guess depends on the tour and what's available
I know a guy who has the equipoment to do this. I will take a picture of the gear next time I see him.
Ok I will just come out and say it as some my want to protect who they are in this thread.
The guy is full of ####. End of story
You have been told by CF members, some of which work directly with/for the sniper cells, people that provide/purchase the ammo for the CF, and regular CF members/people involved with CISC in this thread that everything you have posted about is BS.
I KNOW first hand that the things you are asking about are BS
You have to remember what alot of people have told you here, if they talk about it they most likely were not it. And that it doesn't matter what your job in the CF is, when you are not at work all the laws that apply to you apply to them. You really should get this dude on here I would love to hear some stories lol.
