You may want to try Brenneke slug's at 25 or 50 yards.
That will really tell you how the barrels will shoot.

You might want to pattern that coach gun first.
Many of those guns have barrels regulated 3-4 ft. appart
or high and low to each other.

You can try looking for a Lanber O/U 12 Bore gun.
It was made years ago, 21 inch barrels and a total weight of 6 pounds, very nasty to shoot.
But the bottom barrel was on at 50 yards and the top...
Put the cases in a plastic shopping bag, give them a spray of furniture wax in a can, the cheap stuff.
Then tumble for a few seconds, spread out to dry. That light coating of wax will
make the...

As I recall Sovereign had a full line of presses. My turret does not have the primer
feed device, but that's O K. It is a heavy press, many pieces are made from cast iron.
Forum: Vintage Reloading Gear
The press was made by Sovereign Instruments. They made the Texas Turret press, seven station press.

Could have come out of a auto assembly plant tool room.

crank/lever.
The hold down screw thumb piece looks like a half washer welded in...

The write up I seen stated the case was coated with a polymer coating.
There are many different coatings/paints out there. But one that come to mind is acrylic

Thank You for the input about the Lyman mold.
I have a (new to me) Canik 9mm and so far it is performing very well with
round nose bullets. I'm now loading the 356402's, now I have to find some...
Anyone out there using the Lyman 356402 mold for 9MM?
I have a two cavity and just started using this mold. It makes a 115 grain bullet
with one grease ring.
What I would like to know is there...

Check on Guns International, the vendors there list the price they want for listed guns.
It is not a auction site.
With used dies there is no history of use. It is very hard to see
what the inside condition is.
I have bought used dies that left score marks on my brass.
then having to polish the inside with...

Look up book box's, they can be had from ebay.
A wooden box made to look like a very old book.
Lots of room inside for storing things, partitions can be glued in the hold small items.

Put the plastic stuff into the recycle bin, don't look back!
Get a Redding No.3 or a RCBS Uniflo or a Lyman 55.
Did you ever notice on the forums there are very,very few gripes about those...
You do not have to go to tier 2 loadings. Standard loads with the 255 grain SWC will do the
job!

Get the March issue of the Rifle magazine. The article to read is, Reloading a Rimfire? Sort of...
I just checked on Guns International, the M28 ranges from a low of $900 to $1500 and higher!
And there is no hillary hole.
The Smith and Wesson M28 or Highway Patrolman is no longer in production.
That fact puts it high up on the S & W collector list, also pushes the price
up also.
I have a six shot GP100 and the front sight is easy to replace.
Why do you need to replace the front sight with adjustable sight at the rear?
That is the new Cattleman II revolver, kind of works like a Ruger.
No more four clicks!

You may want to look at a single stage press of a different make.

Go to NOE Bullet Molds, they have what you want.
First class tools, well made, nicely finished!

How often do you see someone asking about the Lyman 55 not doing what it is designed to do?
Leaking powder, cutting powder grains, not setting right?
They do what they do charge after charge, and...
The upside is, you can send the gun back to Ruger and have a new barrel installed.
What barrel length do you have?
I have read that "Firelapping" is the gunsmith's friend!!
The guy that posted, said firelapping generated more income than
shot out barrels. Guys will fire lap till they have a smooth bore
barrel....
