Great shooting no matter how you look at it. Ever heard of Pontotoc Co?

PP turns some pretty good performance in all my 10mm's, both accuracy and velocity. It goes good with both 180 gr cast and J word boolits.

I was going to see if he could stub a Henry barrel for me.
I sent an e-mail via that web site asking about the Maxi data and pic's and all the Maxi data and someone sent a return...

I was wondering about that, the site I would go to had a lot of info for the Maxi, it even had lots of pic's of H&R rifles with his stubbed barrels and targets too. I miss it.

I am looking for info for David White, he does a lot of barrel stubbing and work with the 357 Maximum. I found this site but it doesn't look like the right one.

I am looking for a fifty to hundred or so 200 gr .454 diameter 45 Colt boolits for my Uberti 1860 "Iron Frame" rifle with it's generous dimensioned barrel. I guess some rnfp or fp boolits would work...
Forum: Reloading Equipment
Where can you get some 200 gr 45 Colt boolits in .454 diameter? I have a Uberti 1860 "Iron Frame" that has a generous barrel size and am needing to get some boolits to try.

My RCBS steel 45 Colt die is from 1980, is that old enough? It even has the decapper in the expander die.

I have been using a steel 45 Colt size die and sizing the case right at the bullets length for years, I even tried full length sizing with a Hornady Nitride sizing die for a while and it...
