He drops ships his molds which means faster delivery. My nephew does the same thing from Sweden.

That is a great price. Since 296 is the same as H110 you have twice the loading data.

IF they leave your name on the design guess who is libel if something goes wrong? I will give you two guesses. That is why I no longer make gun parts. I used to make them for a buddy of mine who...

They will work but there are two things to remember.
1. Take your time when casting.
2. Be sure to cull the bullets better than you are used to.
I have in the past cast bullets for .222 and...

We have a real problem on my wife's property of feral dogs. We haven't lost ant calves to them but our neighbors have. I shoot them when I see them, but the people who drop them off is the ones I...

Okay here is what I use for case lube for the last 5 years. It's electricians wire wax. A bottle will cost about 8 bucks at Home Depot and about 9 at Lowes.
Mix this 1/3 electricians wax and 2/3...

OR you could use the 45/45/10 LLA if you have little time and shoot a lot. BUTT and it's a big one. I powder coat all my 7.62X39 so I can get full speed out of my Ruger Bolt Rifle.

Okay, I have seen quite a few at the range and no one has had any problems with it, except the triggers on these compacts(all of them could be improved). There is a company that makes an improved...

Just like making Black Powder. Just as explosive and just as corrosive. I would not be comfortable doing anything like this. There is also the cost. Not any cheaper to make than to buy and let...

Your cases maybe a tiny bit short. I have had this problem in my model 59 one time when I trimmed my cases a bit short.

Toss it. Garbage! I had some once that was given to me. It was once fired. At the first reloading half of the necks cracked.

Well it seems the big companies, like Lyman and RCBS, have dumbed it down because of liability. I remember back is the 70's casting your own bullets was the way to go. Now not so much. People are...

I don't remember any RED FLAKES in mine when I used it. Sounds like someone put Red Dot in a Reloader 7 bottle. Haven't used it in years.

Check with Numeric. They had a firing pin for my S&W Model 59 when I broke it.

I have replaced more of their extractors than illegal aliens have crossed into Texas! Other than having a terrible trigger, they are okay. Just recoils harder because of their size.

Been shooting H110/W296 since most on this list were just children(Yes I am old) all I can say is crimp, crimp, crimp! It has to be uniform.
