Egad, sir! You overlooked Commander McBragg!
Uh...er... not to belabor the obvious, but if it were a spread feedlip problem - or any other of the suggested problems... why did it wait for the seventh round to manifest itself? If it were a...
Wilson's slick plastic follower? Full-house load? My guess is that inertia caused the last round to jump the mag, but the slide's return stroke caught the round before it escaped the gun completely,...
Concur, Buckshot... in fact, I postulate that the ease and speed with which an item will disappear into the spacewarp is directly proportionate to the cost of or difficulty incurred in replacing the...

Your books are giving you bad advice... trying to cut the notch by running a drill through the existing hole is a good way to screw up a frame. It's a 1/16 " drill, and when the drill hits the...
Yeah.... I sometimes become so amused by the rising stack of boolits that I try to run through just one more through before the stack lifts the top part of the container enough to separate it from...
Forum: The Star Equipment Corner
Are you saying that there's lube on the nose (or my guess is on the ogive) after you've run the boolet through the second time? If so, that has nothing to do with the boolet's already having been...

Again, that top groove's a crimp groove; since the boolit is designed for a revolter, it wouldn't be filled when used in that application. Having said that, my only cavil with Lee's designs is that...
Forum: The Star Equipment Corner
Hmmmm..... Lee doesn't catalogue such a boolit; nor do I recall their ever having done so. Is yours the .452 - 200 - RF catalogue # 90697? If so, it's designed for a wheelie-gun; the top groove's...
Palmer, Mass. Dist. roll pin to center of sight screw .405 ( eyeballing calipers lain on frame). Sight channel .312. 744 VH
4.8 Titegroup, Win. .357 hulls, Fed. 100 primers, very light roll crimp, S&W 5" bbl.

Last round both times? Sounds like the extractor's dropping the hull (see Clint's explanation as to why it doesn't happen with preceding rounds). A test... chamber a round, pull the mag and fire the...

I have the Lee 200 SWC (conventional lube groove). It's a fine shooter; I can't discern any difference between results with it and the H & G 68 at 25 yards, but it's not an exact copy of the H...
Drifting with 35 Rem (can't let him take all the flames by himself).
Al, I'd have to ask the use or uses to which you'll be putting your 1911. If you're plinking, punching paper, gaming, etc. .......

Sold out of most of what you're looking for (don't know if they can source more), but the linked site has a schematic/parts list and take-down/reassembly...
I should've added that you'll likely get to put a bit of work into your "extract a hard-chambered round from a 1911" drill when extracting the round. A bit of shaved shoulder'll wedge a round into a...
Bd beat me to it. I had the same problem when shooting pure lead swaged SWCs. As to why the problem occurs with the SWC but not the TC .... imagine a steel plate with a .4505 - .451 hole drilled into...

Hey, Prickett.... you tryin' to embarrass me by having me post my pop-gun load? 3.4 TG, Fed. 100, light taper crimp, .357 brass. Avg. 741 fps.
Loved WAP in .45 ACP. As Jim said, it's Ramshot Silhouette. I assume that Western Powder made it for Winchester; when Winchester discontinued it, Western decided to market it under the Ramshot brand....
Forum: Cast Boolits
Had the same problem as did casterofboolits; interestingly, with the same brand of dies and calibers. That, plus my great lack of enthusiasm for having flakes of nickel falling into the guts of my...

Mine arrived today. Great looking moulds.... seems that the good folks at Lee have really cleaned up their act. Many thanks, Matt.
