Cast up some RCBS 225-55(mine drop 60g) this a.m. Ran out on the last batch. Nothing much to report,all went well on the pour.

Reason; just snagged a pretty durn clean Savage varmint fluted,22-250...

OK,here's a quick story;

Ordered a two holer,Saeco #311-165g Eagan "wannabe" mould from Buffalo bullets on Wednesday this week at 10 a.m. It arrived here(Va. mnts) on
Thursday(next day) round 4...

Most the moulds here are stored in plastic boxes,all neatly labeled,climate controlled,with desiccant paper. 3 or 4 stay "out" and mounted on handles. The Lyman 358432 is one of those that is always...

A cpl .260 R's here. But definitely NOT subsonic,instead running/chasing JB velocity with their starting loads of slow burning powder. 4 moulds... Lee 140,NOE 126,Saeco 140,and Lyman 150(266-673)....

Good days and bad days...

Had a widowmaker heart attack,a stroke,severe nasty chronic Lymes,and wear a cervical collar now and again from a broken neck goin on 20 years ago....

Today; shot my...

Prayers sent.

I don't... and will never powder coat. The reason being... I have been a paid professional "finisher". Translated,we spray a LOT of "paint". If I had to paint bullets... would quit casting.

That...

At last count there's 3, "250's" here. An Encore,R700 VSSF,and an old flat back Savage 110. For whatever reason? I only shoot a RCBS 60G (listed as 55,mine drops 60). Don't shoot the Encore much in...

All cast here,these are 3 standouts using IMR4831.

22-250-RCBS 60G (think they list it at55,mine drops closer to 60 before GC). Slow twist factory R700 Sendero.

6mm Rem-Saeco 85g original...

Probably "preaching to the choir"(you already know)...

Chip/dust evac tech in the woodshop is usually centered around personal health. Wonderful,except the "conversation" rarely goes any further....

azlester, I use several mounted to a round 12" carousel...marked L or S on their body to quickly distinguish which rotor is in. Of the 4 so mounted,3 are small,one is large.
Think,two are Uniflow I...

Very nice,thanks for sharing.

Rest in peace.

I use 4831 in 6mm Rem,and 260's. Both at obscene velocity for cast... both with fast twist barrels,using light for caliber weight bullets.

General advice; you've no doubt heard fit is king,well...

Propane and $$ machine tools is bad juju. Dosen't mean "can't".... means,understand the nature of the moisture issue.

Insulation is cheaper longterm,than heat... the added benefit is in summer....

Dang gent,that's terrible. Hope and prayers for a full recovery.

Poleaxed a Ghog late last week. 223,Shilen brrl Savage #16. RCBS 60G backed by 18g H4198. Light to med jam,.002" neck interference set with custom Lyman M die. Zero runout on fresh annealed RP cases....

I see it partly as mdi(post #17)in the reference towards the difference between swaged,pure for BP,and sorta... anything else must be "hard cast". One other little addition is in plumber speak. And...

Windows and light are more important to me than other geographic issues. I have two,both in front of a window.... one is at,say the 20 yard line,the other is at a corner...both over a leg. Once in a...

My dad was Army 9th division. Was at the "Bulge". He never fully got over the frostbite from there. IIRC,it was a record cold for the area that winter?

Very slight tangent... but heading in a good direction;

Take the star with you to a real,not sLowes,Home Despot... welding supply store. Ask them for a name of any retired or small machine shops...

Around 1980? there was a wrinkle in the Virginia game laws that lasted for a cpl years. The synopsis being 22-250 was "legal" for deer hunting. I'm doing this big construction job at an auto/heavy...

Sorry,you're about 10 years after the fact. Instead of getting all worked up,spend way more time researching. There are some amazing deals to be had... just need to educate yourself beforehand.
