I did a trade with CRICCO a while back and didn't even know about the Straight Shooter section. He was easy and fair to deal with and I got some great brass on the deal. Very Happy. :smile:

I'll pay shipping to US on that excess powdered HT if there's enough to make it worth it. Hate to see it go to waste on some poor defenseless weeds.

Copper blocks would be the best but who has those laying around the garage?
I haven't tried it but what about lead bricks, or muffins, or whatever shape you have?

I wouldn't worry about the rivet pins. If you are concerned go ahead and push them out and peen the rivet. Of course then you would have two leaker holes. Better to peen or squish the rivet around...

Interesting thread. I'd be interested in a kit or even the autocad drawings. I can weld and have some mechanical skills but lack the background for machining the parts.

I could have bought some in the $3-5 range, but passed on them due to caliber. I will have to say that Lee is by far the best value.

reread the original post. What about Lee's 300 Blackout mold from Midway. It's cheap enough to try, heavy bullet, tumble lube. Looks like the profile you described. you could cut the nose to get...

Nice thread. Now I will have to buy those cheap dies next time I come across them. Knew I needed them but didn't know what for. Nice bullet Rangefinder. Thanks for the info danR.

Lee's production schedule may be backlogged due to the high demand for standard items which most are backordered. Your initial lead time of 8 weeks may be a bit longer.
Forum: Group Buy Archives
Can we get a price with handles? can't find them anywhere and midway is backordered till the end of may, if then. also may want to double check lee's current production schedule.
