Just a little news item that I thought would be of interest to Freeperland. (I am not Mr Grayson, BTW.)

I'll have to admit the title caught my attention right quick. Doesn't involve any I have however.
Thanks for info.

Reason #1,393,048 to roll your own.

I have about 300 rounds of Federal Hydro-Shok’s. The part # is P45HS1. I can’t find any lot numbers on the boxes. I think that they are OK. Three boxes are at least 5 years old, the rest are new. I hope that they are OK because they were on backorder for 13 months.
Maybe I’ll just give the folks at Federal a ringy-dingy. I shoot 1911’s and I’m kind of funny about them.

I file down my .45 ammo to fit my .40.
I've only died a little.

Ammo recall? Let me guess... Sudden acceleration problem? Hee hee.
To: Slings and Arrows
The first shot of a 20 round box of 7mm Remington Mag. seemed normal until I tried to open the bolt. It was locked tight. I had to take a mallet and tap the handle to open it.
The case showed obvious signs of high pressure such as the primer falling out of the pocket.
I phoned Remington. (this was back in 1979 when they were still part of Dupont) The person I talked to was politely bored and didn’t ask for any information such as lot number etc. so I just hung up and never used any more from that box.
The gun, a 700BDL was undamaged.
Around the same time, I had a cast bullet stay in the barrel of a mint Colt Series 70 M1911. I still am not sure what happened. I was shooting rapidly and noticed a squib load but had fired again before stopping. The second shot kicked about like a .44 mag.
I took the gun home and checked it out. The barrel had a bulge about midway. Besides that, no damage. I kept using it for a while until I got a new barrel.
The thing I could never understand is the squib was so weak as to leave the bullet in the barrel yet had enough power to cycle the slide.
