So I'm tired of waiting every week to get to BassPro at the right time to find 4 little 50 round boxes of .22.
I'm taking a relative shooting soon and it kinda sucks.
What I have tons of though, is 7.62x54r brass, and some decent powder.
I've heard using lighter 13 grain gallery loads in 7.62x54r makes for a really low recoil round that even the kids can shoot.
How many of you have tried this, and is it really worth the time/effort/money as an alternative to .22 plinking?
I'm looking around for a good tutorial on loading these, if anyone has any links to some good guides, I'd appreciate the url.
