Can someone measure part number 36 for me? I was taking mine totally down so that I could clean it totally and I lost the spring. I have the safety piece but it just flops around without the spring. I have placed a small amount of paper in the gap to keep it locked off in the meantime since I never used it but I want it back to original functionally.

I've tried finding replacements online for not-insane prices but no dice. If I can figure out the dimensions and approximate weight of the spring I can just slip a replacement into my next mcmaster Carr order at work.

I sent the link to my brother who now owns the pistol. I think he's going to buy the spring for real. Thanks for the offer though.

the angled stock screw pulls the action into the stock, resulting in bedded-like accuracy without having to bed the action. can't pull that off with a vertical screw.

The basis of my gripe is the idea behind the design, or lack of. It's the blatant laziness; in such an elegant rifle, doing something like this is definitely NOT classy.

Angled screws like >>82195 said are cool, and a simple solution that should have been done in the first place.

I'm pretty much trying to find some reason to make me not want to buy one. Shhh.

Having visible stock screws on such an elegant rifle is not classy. So Sauer hid them away at the ends? Very classy. :P

There's also the take downs if that's more your thing. ;)

Depends if you're looking at it from a design point of view, or an aesthetic point of view. I meant more the former.

Truly, a rifle both elegant in design and visually beautiful is the epitome of these often dichotomous characteristics.

tl;dr nooo stop tempting me ;_;

I'm taking the plunge and buying a rock chucker press, manual, powder and primers this afternoon. Have some nice dies, 69gr SMK bullets, powder measure and scale coming from another opchanner soon. I think all I still need is a case tumbler. Am I missing anything else? I'll be loading for accuracy for my 1:9 twist savage because I know I'm going to get into the hobby at some point and fuck paying a buck a shot for match ammo.

What are some good sites that break down the steps and explain shit? Preferably in text + pictures instead of videos since I'm on my phone and have limited data.

Welcome to drunken loading, lesson #567
How to do ladder testing.
>Shit I gotta find a powder charge my gun likes. The fuck do I do?
>I got dis. Lets ladder test this
>Go get your bullet right off the lands if you're in a bolt gun. If you're using a semi auto, use whatever your recipe book says. Because, muh feeding angles (sometimes), but it's more annoying to load 100 rounds that won't fit in your magazines. That sucks.
>Go look at your powder charge range.
>I'm working off memory, but my 223 loads are 23-29 or so. (NOT RELOADING DATA)
>Pick a difference that your scale can actually measure. Buddy, unless you have a coke scale in the house (Hypothetically I do), .1 gr differences gets swallowed up by the scale innacuracies
>So, I go with .2 gr differences.
>Figure out where you want precision. Pick your starting area good.
>Load up 3 rounds of each difference.
>3 rounds of 25.0, 3 rounds of 25.2, 3 rounds of 25.4, ... etc.
>Go to the range, stick your gun in a lead sled.
>Shoot the first three rounds. Walk down range. Mark the powder charge.

This is exactly what I was looking for. Would you recommend me jump right into finding the best charge for this bullet/powder/primer combo or just play around a bit first making low end loads until I'm totally comfortable with the process?
>> No. 81955 ID: bdc075
>>81953
Make plinking loads. Get your prep and steps down, get comfortable loading.

You're making ammo that's as accurate as store bought, at a much cheaper price. What's the worry for now? You're saving money?

Good practice ammo.

When you decide to go full autist and load up super match ammo, have at and have fun.

I ladder tested my ar15 though. And loaded up a few hundered rounds of the best choice.

Sadly the factory one of the pins that come with the Chip McCormick trigger group is not long enough to make it through the extra thick portion of the receiver around the hammer area. So I acquired these KNS pins that use allen screws on the ends.

Sadly the KNS pin was too short also. I didn't feel comfortable with only 2 threads of the allen screw finding purchase in the pin. So I checked the thread pitch and ordered some stainless steel allen screws that were longer and could go in deeper.

The ''corrosion resistant'' stainless steel screws went in nicely. Also cerakote for extra corrosion resistance. The drop in trigger group fit snug as a bug and functioned just fine.

How close is hornady's 75gr OTM/BTHP to TAP? Apparently I'm going hog hunting as part of a busnisess trip in a couple weeks because lolKentucky. This is will be my first time hunting so I want to bring enough go make sure I can get a clean kill with a less than perfect shot.

Also, what kinds of ranges are hogs usually hunted at? Will my 4x ACOG be enough or should I move the 3-9x40 nikon I *just* got zeroed on my boltgun to my AR?

>> No. 81942 ID: 3c20fc
ACOG should be fine. Winchester makes some 64 grain specialty rounds for hogs... razorback XT I believe. Honestly though I would expect the 75grs to zap them no issues.
>> No. 82161 ID: b31c95
Found out we'll be hunting for 2 full days so I'm going to need more than the 20 rounds of 75g I had left after rezeroing the ACOG so I picked up 4 mags worth of MFS 62gr jsps. Also probably going to switch to my nikon because I want to be able to see what I'm shooting as well as possible on my first hunting trip.

I've contacted all 5 official Steyr dealers listed on SteyrUSA's website in my state, and none have had any rifles for months, have no time frame for getting any in, and only 2 have had pistols.

I have 500 rounds through mine with 2 failures to feed (one was definitely a limp wrist) and one failure to eject. I want to run a few hundred more rounds through it without cleaning to see if it has any further problems. Talk to me this time next year when I have a few thousand rounds through it to see if it runs well.

>>82166
I've never seen a new one for sale in a store - only used. I got mine from a seller on Gunbroker who is a Steyr dealer. They have most of the different pistol models in stock, but no rifles. AUGs are available, but I've never seen a bolt gun for sale.

Well... fondling. If you had no qualms about letting people know you had it, you could make a fucking killing just by charging $20 to let gun owners the world over travel to your man cave like a firearms mecca pilgrimage just to finger fuck the thing for a few minutes.

Carefully measure each and every single part, make a proper CAD model of the thing, build a replica, reverse engineer the ammo and engineer a functional replacement. Put all information on the internet for free if HK doesn't resume production of weapon and ammunition for civilian ownership.

3D laser scan every single part down to the micron.
Set up a company, kickstart some starting capital. Gunnuts will dig deep into their pockets to own one, especially when you show them your working "prototype".
Start building G11-esque weaponry.
Contact Dynamit Nobel AG to order a shitton of caseless ammo.
Get sued by H&K, can't afford the protracted legal battle, go out of business, go broke. Get your shit repo'd.

Still have a full auto original G11, you buried it somewhere, all is still well.
