Last year I bought a LBT hardness tester. I have packed up an moved since then and haven't been able to find the instructions
on how to use it. I hope someone has one an can give me some help.

Thanks

Well fit .357 mag boolits to 1250+ with range scrap. Water dropped. There was some leading on the lands the first 3/4 inch or so. Backed it down. Harder lead?? No issues at all to 1350.

There are two styles of LBT testers- Old style and the current one that Veral is selling. The old style can be identifies by the white calibration line. Here is the link to the tread that has instructions for both.
