I bought a Teslong borescope off of Amazon for my rifle barrels. I like it so well, I bought a shorter Teslong borescope for my revolvers. Didn't cost all that much but a much used addition to my gun...

Been there a bunch of times. The people are fantastic to talk to and gain advice and tips from. I bought most of my muzzleloading stuff there including two Muzzleloader kits that I built. I am having...

That 46-405V is a nice bullet with a WFN. You don't even need any expansion. I often use my WFN designs from Tom with a 50/50 mix of COWW and Pure and then just air cool them. I fill the grooves with...
Last year, instead of Fed-Ex driving up my driveway to deliver an expensive western straw hat to me,the driver tossed the big box under the mailbox on the rod in plain sight for anybody to see. Just...

First, pick the profile of the bullet that you want then choose the mold that offers it and go from there. Iron or Aluminum makes no difference. It's all good.Only you can decide how much you want to...

Beating the horse, I mix 1 oz of pure liquid Lanolin to 12 oz. of 99% Iso Alcohol. Can't begin to tell you where I got the recipe but it works.

There is quite a bit difference between the old Cabine Tree chart and the newer Cabine Tree by ST Machining's chart. I have both charts and it can be quite confusing. I had the old CT but sold it and...

Ok. I am good there then on the revolver.
Forum: Gas Checks
What about if the bullet was fired from a revolver as in a 44 magnum or 357 magnum with a bullet sized .002" over with a gas check.

My Ruger 77/44 has a groove diameter of .429". Is it ok to have bullets sized at .431"-.4315" with GC's ? I know that with my other guns my Plain base bullets are .002" over. Just not sure about...
Things must have really turned around for the GP-100. I just bought one most recently and it is all I could ask for. It's good that you are back into a loving relationship with it.

Nope. Not me. lol. How ya doing there CW? I was just sneaking around on here since I just got a new Uberti El Patron in 45 Colt yesterday. I've been shooting 8.5 grains of Unique in my Ruger with my...
Slow and heavy for me. I like over penetration. I choose cast bullets with WFN. On game, I like two holes for blood to get out fast. For self defense, well you just might be able to get the other bad...

I started with the lube/sizers and have two of them. Have a good supply of lubes from LARS on hand. All my bullet molds are made to drop my bullets big and all my sizing dies are such to give me...

Ballistol is fantastic for cleaning black powder firearms and is about all I use on them. It also does a good job on general cleaning of smokeless powder firearms for removing crud left from...

Confusing picture. You stated 2400 powder but the page clearly says Reduced Unique Rifle loads.

I'll just throw my load for a 405 gr. WFN-PB cast bullet out of my Guide Gun. I get 1-3/4" groups at 100 yards using 42 grains of IMR 4064 and an average velocity of 1388 fps. That's all my 74 year...

If your bullets aren't filling out in the mold or they are wrinkly and ugly looking, it ain't because you didn't use tin.
