I cast a bunch Jan 24 and PC'd them next day. I washed them all in acetone and mixed them in a #5 ice cream bucket. That's two things I haven't done until yesterday.

One of my first "successful" coats looked similar. It was Eastwood Silver Vein.322653

Right on! I was just going through my powder and came upon a package from Ammo Mart marked SP 83. It was ordered a long time ago and I've lost track of what I was going to use it for. Now I know! ...

Looks good to me!

My goodness! I just read through 875 posts. I only ever cleaned brass with a little Thumbler's Tumbler, then a Frankford Arsenal vibrator in later years. Then...I caught the citric acid bug on...

My wife gave me a brand new little crock pot to use. I've done one small batch of rifle shell with about 30 .45acp cases. They were dull, but not range pickup dirty. After citric treatment, I...

I just got one of these in a bunch of stuff. It is still packed in the original packing. Let me know if you need the instructions and I will get them to you via internet.

I have a Baikal single shot 7.62x39, as well as a Zasatava bolt in that caliber. I made an SKS into a straight pull bolt. Great fun to shoot with light loads, cast bullets!

I toss my lubed bullets back into the pot. World hasn't come to and end over it. I try to pick over a batch before I lube, but the odd one does escape. Actually, I tumble lube most, if not all my...

Well, interesting thread, so far. I actually have two Ishapore .410's, a 3" and an original straightwall chamber. I shall restart my project to reload some .410 hulls and try them in both. I...

Interesting thread. I have used Unique in several different calibers and rifles, to good effect. I am another one who likes the low recoil, as well as the idea of using 10 or so grains of powder as...

I have mostly used good old Lee Alox. I did try thinning it with mineral spirits. For some of the harder rifle bullets that will get used at higher velocities I also put on a bit of the blue stuff...

Love this stuff! I have fired a goodly number of 93 gr. Lee with 5gr 700X invarious 30-30's, plus other weights. The only thing I find that doesn't work all that well is that the light bullet will...

Plan B is looming on the horizon. I fired the factory Federal 3", then reloaded them, fired, reloaded, fired. One of the hulls let go at the rim, blowing a hole the same width as the extractor. ...

Am I too late to post my .25 cents here?

I have used around 10 gr of 700X in my milsurps - .303, 8mm, 7.62x54R, 7.62x53Arg, as well as 30-30, 32 Spec, with bullet wgts of 150-170gr, cast #2, WW,...

EnfieldMaint: Don't worry. I won't fiddle with any of the rifle/shotgun workings. I'll just keep using an O-ring. I bought a few so I can prepare ahead.

The next three hulls I loaded with 7.1...

I loaded up 4 Federal 3" plastic hulls that originally had a roll crimp. I pretty much did a backwoods job, using the deprimer rod and the decapping base from a 303 Br. Lee Loader. So far so good....

Hello. I have a nasty old Ishapore .410 chambered for 3". Can somebody suggest a charge for loading one or two Lee 92 gr .395 balls, with a Federal 410Sc wad? I have 700X, Unique, Red Dot, Trail...

Neat idea! The caliber that I use this on escapes me at the moment, but I used much the same idea. I found a small hand wrench with just the perfect thickness to "take up the slack" in a similar...
