Quite a fascinating thing this is. It captured and recorded every shot fired from 5 different guns where sky screens would have failed completely given the light conditions. About 100 rounds total...
Midway is not taking back orders on this. Note it says "Out of stock - No back orders".

From post #29, that is correct. Far too many people look at a revolvers throats as sizing dies. They are not even though they work superbly as such. No matter how big you size your bullets they will...

Not a dumb question at all. You can keep the alloy in the pot at the same temp easy enough but the air temp your casting in will have a profound effect on mold cooling between pours and even if the...
There are many bullets that work well in the Ruger. I use 311410 @ 130 gr HP'd in mine with 10.0 or 10.5 gr SR 4759, mild shooting and accurate enough for CA ground Squirrels to 100 yards. I also use...
I competed with Freedom Arms Revolvers and the chambers are quite snug there also, still neck sized to remove any possible slop. Because I shoot only CB I cleaned the cylinder after shooting session,...

I forgot to mention the water softener in my post. It's discharge goes with the washing machine drain not into the septic. I asked around about the effect of salt on the septic and never got a decent...

It's antimony that allows heat treating in common bullet alloys. Any Pb/Sb alloy can be heat treated for additional strength. Arsenic (As) will act as a grain refiner in a Pb/Sb/As alloy and result...

Well that explains the no inspection pipe but if it ever does need to pumped out I don't know how they will do it short of digging up the tank. I have stopped using antibacterial hand soap. The...
Brass should be matched. When I get new brass it goes into an MTM box, that's it's home. It is never mixed with any other brass, not even in the tumbler. I don't reload any of that brass until it's...
Here's an accuracy tip, I do this on my long range match loads. Neck size only. Lay a fired case on it's side and place a bullet next to it to where the case mouth lines up with the crimp groove,...

This is first house I've had with a septic system, been in it for three years now and no issues. Yet. Had the tank inspected when I bought the house but unfortunately I wasn't here when he dug up the...

Are we sure that was West Virginia? If it was Nebraska that could have been our very own Btroj. :mrgreen:

Hope I contributed some. Please keep us informed how it's going for you.

No shouldn't "explode" the gun using cast but I wouldn't expect the best accuracy especially as leading builds up. Cast is far softer than jacketed and while it could cause some higher pressure it if...

There is a very real concern with tumbling media. No, it's not sitting there waiting to jump out and get you but immediately after handling it is a really good time to wash your hands.
As always...

Bore diameter - .363"
Throats - .360"
Bullets - .363"
That is a recipe for bore leading. Revolver throats are the worlds best bullet sizer, your .363" bullets after going through the throats...

Must be a difference in Marlins, mine ate the RCBS 35 200 like it was it's favorite candy. Cycled and chambered fine, no deep seating, crimped in the groove.

It's a different situation for those that have been casting for some time and would like to go with the Star. Once an investment in dies is made and that can be considerable switching machines means...

Another point for the Star that hasn't been mentioned in this thread is that nose first push through sizing is more concentric than in & out sizing. Rifle or handgun a non concentrically sized bullet...
