that can perform some math for me

2018-07-09 09:25:21 UTC  

I wanna do a sort of clone design of 9x39; just in .375 cal

2018-07-09 09:25:32 UTC  

utilizing a tungsten carbide penetrator

2018-07-09 09:25:35 UTC  

You want to design a gun?

2018-07-09 09:25:43 UTC  

no, bullet

2018-07-09 09:25:55 UTC  

I wanna use .375 socom for the bullet design

2018-07-09 09:26:03 UTC  

Huh, too bad making them is a capital punishment here. Cant help you there.

2018-07-09 09:26:24 UTC  

then make subsonic loads for it that can surpass the 9x39

2018-07-09 09:26:44 UTC  

So, you want a quieter round with the penetration of a .375

2018-07-09 09:27:18 UTC  

9x39 is a cartridge that was designed to be subsonic and armor piercing

2018-07-09 09:28:27 UTC  

I want to design a good bullet that can surpass the experimental loads that they produced

2018-07-09 09:28:35 UTC  

Here's hoping I can eventually make a gun purchase that I'm not vaguely disappointed in...

2018-07-09 09:28:43 UTC  

I think a reasonable target point is 12mm

2018-07-09 09:28:52 UTC  

Are you unhappy with your guns?

2018-07-09 09:29:00 UTC  

Eh, they're alright for starters.

2018-07-09 09:29:13 UTC  

Well buyers remourse applies to everything

2018-07-09 09:29:22 UTC  

I had a little buyers remorse for my M4

2018-07-09 09:29:24 UTC  

If you dont shoot them, it feels like a waste

2018-07-09 09:29:37 UTC  

My Featherlight is great, but the only range that'll let me fire it charges out the ass.

2018-07-09 09:29:52 UTC  

but the parts availability is great provided I don't need a new barrel

2018-07-09 09:30:02 UTC  

Why that range specifically?

2018-07-09 09:30:15 UTC  

I mean, why you need that specific range?

2018-07-09 09:30:31 UTC  

Is it indoor?

2018-07-09 09:30:37 UTC  

Caliber too high

2018-07-09 09:30:39 UTC  

Lots of ranges don't allow shotguns

2018-07-09 09:30:48 UTC  

yeah

2018-07-09 09:30:52 UTC  

Lots of damage to the range.

2018-07-09 09:31:03 UTC  

Normally you get ranges specifically designed for trap or skeet

2018-07-09 09:31:08 UTC  

It's not damage per-se it's cleanup when patterning

2018-07-09 09:31:23 UTC  

the trap and skeet generally don't like 'home defense' shotguns

2018-07-09 09:31:32 UTC  

but the only ones we have here are exclusive.

2018-07-09 09:31:35 UTC  

you gotta find BLM

2018-07-09 09:31:44 UTC  

Not sure Texas has BLM

2018-07-09 09:31:57 UTC  

it should

2018-07-09 09:32:01 UTC  

Huh, didnt realize that bout shotguns

2018-07-09 09:32:10 UTC  

it's a minor annoyance most of the time

2018-07-09 09:32:11 UTC  

my Mosin Nagant is a damn powerful gun

2018-07-09 09:32:15 UTC  

And that does explain why shotgun ranges are usually clays or skeet shooting

2018-07-09 09:32:22 UTC  

doing patterning is painful

2018-07-09 09:32:29 UTC  

Can't in good conscience mount a scope on it though

2018-07-09 09:32:36 UTC  

costs 50 cents a shot
