Just got a Yugo SKS not long ago and was going to reload some 7.62X39. Still had some dies from an SKS I had years ago. Looked through my reloading manual, and the only load I could find I already had the powder was using 2400. Anyways went to the range today, loaded a clip, and fired. Action did not cycle. Hand cycled and shot another round. Action did not cycle again. Emptied the mag and put in a clip of some milsurp I also brought. Worked like a champ. The bad thing is these reloads were printing great groups on the target. But I don't exactly like shooting an SKS single shot. The recoil did not feel much different to me than from the milsurp. Kind of wondering if the 2400 is just too fast a powder and is messing with the workings. Have to shoot off the rest of the 100 rounds I made, then come up with a different recipe. Never going to use pistol powder on a rifle again.
