I have had the same problem with my 45/70 rolling block. I bet you have lumps of stinking powder left over after the failure to fire.

I'll tell what I do with my rifle. First, you realy need to cast the chamber. It is my understanding that several different smiths converted those rifles in country with out gov. standards, so they...

I have had remoil. That may have done it. I have soaked the trigger and freed it up several times. It looks clean but after sitting for several months it does it again. Its like there is some varnish...

What kind of gun oil won't dry out and get gummy? I have a Remington 582 that has it's trigger jammed up every time I go to use it, and have had some hand guns that were goo'ed up as well. The hand...

Yesterday I was on line with a very old laptop we call broke neck, cause the lid has to be propped up. I usually run a small OS from CD, but had just finished installing Lubuntu 14.04 Linux on the...

I used 54R brass for years before I started using the 8x56R stuff. My cases were Norma. I have had no problems with rim thickness with my M95 rifle, but the rim diameter of the 54R case makes it feed...

With the very little work I have done with the 9mm I found the carbide dies over size the middle, to lower part of the case. My steel dies reproduce the factory taper of the luger case.

I do like some plumb crazy purple. UN-related, but here is one of my vintage race karts.

I cant tell from the pic, but the pin on the bottom of the machine looks bent. I was thinking about this yesterday wile I was sizing and seating gas checks on some 32 boolits that are half linotype...

I hope the alloy isnt causing my problem for two reasons. One is I have almost no pure lead, second is I have cast over a thousand of these boolits. I'll drop the load to two grains and try again. I...

The gun is a H&R model 926, vintage 1978, was new condition. The barrel is .361 and throats .362. The boolit is from a NOE mould 363-150RN. This last load was 2.2 grains Red Dot and it made 700 fps....

If you were loading the 38 S&W to about the 650 fps range with 150 grain rn, what powder would you use? Red Dot, Bullseye, other? I have Red Dot and Bullseye, and am currently using Red Dot. My...

My son and I both have 55's. I found mine to drop small pistol loads better than my RCBS. BUT we both had the same trouble with them. They creep up in charge. We worked and worked and couldnt stop...

Could you tell me what OAL you use with the 314008, or where to crimp it?

I also found I had to run my pot hotter than I usually do.

When I get done fluxing there is nothing left to remelt. Nothing but a dry grey powder to carefully scoop out. Its like dust and there isnt anything more that can be done with it with what we have to...

First I better see if I can figure out how to post this pic here.160745
Ok I think that worked. I would like to ask advise on working up a full magnum load for this gun. The previous load ended up...

Looks like a Hawes (sp) made by JP Sauer. Maybe?

If you have any interest in getting away from Windows you could install a free Linux system on it and see if you like it.

I had a pretty good session the other day with it but didnt want to say much until I was able to repeat. It was a lot colder today than before. I was able to cast a gob of nice boolits in short...

I have heard that some of the carbine barrels are cut down rifle jobs, and the faster part of the gain twist has been cut off. So they dont like lower velocity loads.

Ok guy's I have been reading everything you wrote and thinking about it. I went to the shop tonight and tried something. I ran the pot temp up. My thermometer only goes to 750, but I ran it up to a...

I got a NOE mould for Christmas and it is a beautiful piece of work. It is a .363, 150 gr. for my 38S&W's. Most of my moulds are two cavity except for one four hole Lyman, and I make out good with...

I have one box of brass I had to turn the necks on, and another box was ok. I have a LBT mold for it and love shooting it.

I watched a factory tour video that was shot after the take over by Taurus. I thought is was neat that the warranty dept. was building steel frame big bores cause they had no warranty work to do.
