If you ever had a dog get a hold of one, you'd rethink that.

This! I cant count the number of hogs I've taken here in West Central Texas. Most were with a super blackhawk in .44 with RCBS 44-240-swc just because its the gun that is always with me. Have taken...

I have a new question about the joys of Aluminum moulds. Instead of using a wet rag to cool the sprue plate, would a Heat sink removed from a VFD or such not work well. Anyone tried it?

My mould got here last night. Came a bit earlier than quoted. It is purdy! Cannot wait to drop some slugs.

Threaded valve arm? The bolt ? Screw it back in.

I checked them tonight after they got here and they are non ferrous, just like the ones I have used in the past.

Nice.
I ordered some chore boy copper pads to fix my revolver if it leads like I think it will. My GC mould cannot get here fast enough.

Me neither. I'm guessing you are speaking of 44man?
I learned a bunch from the guy, but in some instances, I didnt agree. This would be one of them.
I will try the plain base at lower levels,...

What about it didn't work for you may I ask? I am scared to death of not gas checking this caliber. I got the cheapie lee 475 400 rf and am half scare to load any up for fear of leading the heck out...

After much studying and consideration of my limited knowledge, I just ordered this mould from Accurate.
I am going to keep loads a tad slower if the gun likes it.

I have my revolver. Moulds, brass, etc ordered.
I am not finding too much data for lower end loads. Would it not be safe to load 480 data into 475 cases......assuming the obvious and not "down...

I just had my local ffl order a BFR in 475 linebaugh.
Anyone have any experience with these rounds?
Sizing and mould recommendations?

Exactly. They tend to circle back in the direction they came. Last known safe place is what I always figured.
I tend to smell the deer before I see him. Make circles and get wind in your face.

And I just checked my mag
It reads "P mag 10" and "Magpul.com" on the side.
I guess I just dont understand all this. The manufacturers said from the get go that 5.56 brass would not work. Its...

If it was legal to give away tags, you could have mine.

That must be nice. I taxidermy waterfowl for fun. The Rios that we have here in Texas are NASTY beasts. They literally make me puke. I wont shoot them, much less eat them.

^^^^^ This. I have taken boat loads of game with RCBS 44-240-SWC. Its a gas checked slug with a smaller mwplat than most would like. WDWW. You hit em high and they will drown in blood before it runs...

Will check it out. Had no idea. Sent him a p.m. but see he hasnt been on since 2012, if ai am reading correctly.

What model of Ultradot? I'm pretty sure thats the brand they all used.
Forum: Hunting with CB's
That is strange as everyone was praising them on .475 and .500s a few years back.
Was also a fella that went by the name Whitworth on here. I see he hasnt logged in for several years as well.
