I have been using that bullet in my marlins 357 for years and that and lees 358-125 rf are about all I shoot any more. Less lead, less powder and both are really accurate I usually load them both...

I can remember my first 38 special, an old used police model I bought at a pawn shop in 1962, and it was the first handgun I ever owned, long before I started shooting and reloading, and I remember...

I shoot this bullet out of my Marlin 1894, cast from wheelweights, air cooled and lubed with Alox. With 19-20 grains of Lil Gun they shoot into one hole at 50 yards. I don't shoot a lot of them...

There is a quote I never forget when loading, my wife explained it this way, "No matter what anybody says, size IS important."

And she is right. I learned it the hard with Marlins microgrove...

This is my favorite bullet. I shoot it in my Ruger 38's and my 357's and shoot it a lot in my Marlin 1894. It is accurate and the best thing about it is, I can load it light, use less powder, less...

That book can be found by going to the Las Angeles Silhouette Club. http://www.lasc.us/ArticlesFryxell.htm
It is a great group of articles and can be downloaded. I keep a copy of it on my...

If it is any consolaton, the battery company is probably going to get a big surprise. I live in Portsmouth, VA and my cousin is in charge of a large dealership, so I have first dibs on their...

Never had any experience with aluminum, but can tell you, I did cast some zinc bullets, I had one steel mold and saved aside some zinc wheel weights and got them hot enough to pour, was not at all...

I'm with silverpigeon, I am not a joiner, however, I did join this forum about a year ago, mostly because I had been a constant looker for years and finally felt ashamed that I had learned so much...

Nice post, pretty much what I do, however, I use sawdust to cover the melt to prevent oxidation, works well and I have lots of it. What I have been finding though, is problems with wheel weights. I...

What you got there is Trail Boss powder. Works great in a lot of my loads, note the little holes which makes them look like little donuts. They are designed for CB shooters, fill the case pretty...

I lucked out today. Went to a flea market with my son in Lynchburg, Va (visiting) and found a guy with a plastic bin full of .35 rems, gave him $15 and when we got home, had over 400 empty cases,...

Years ago, I had the same problem. I found a Marlin 1894 .357 magnum for $350 and a Marlin 1894 .44 Magnum for $375, found it almost impossible to make up my mind, so I gave the guy $725 and bought...

I have 3 Marlins, 1894 .357 magnum, .44 magnum and a 336 in 35 Remington. Love them all, but I think the Henry's have a smoother action than any of them, Winchester included.

You are going to love the 35 remington. My 336 shoots everything from the Lee 125 gr rnfp and Lee's 158 gr RNFP, but it loves the Ranchdog 175 grain TL bullet. I shoot it without gas checks at low...

Consider the lowly .22 long rifle. It shoots nothing but lead, coated with a light coating of wax and I have never seen any leading. Maybe some soot and powder fouling, but never had to scrub lead...

I purchased the RD 358-175RF to shoot in my Marlin 1894, the bullets fall from the mold .360 at the nose, but some measure .358 or .359 in the middle. I noticed this and I separated those that were...

I have been casting for years, have a very accurate scale, which I use for powder measurements, not bullets. At one time I weighed my bullets, but after testing with different weights in the same...
