I have had no luck with J-4 or Sierra jackets and pure lead cores, even with large amounts of exposed lead in 250 grain bullets subsonic in the blackout. Also did pre-fragmented cores with little...

175 Matchkings and around 50 grains of Re-17 is an excellent clone for G11, It's right on my sights adjustments to 600 anyway ( as far as I've shot it) K31

The big volume of buckshot I bought was all hand cast in multi-cavity molds. I aggressively sort them by weight and diameter for use in the .34. I probably lose half in the sorting process. The...

I have a 30 cal 170 grain mold made for paper patching. They cast 300-301 and seem to be working ok. It is a grooved bullet. I think I'd get a mold that would throw .365ish for paper patch. ...

I run full pressure loads with paper patch with little issue. I have a swage die that produces 348 dia bullets. Patched up they have worked great in 375 Win Contender. I haven't shot them in the...

My underhammer shoots maybe slightly better than 2" at 50 when everything comes together. I tried felt wads under the bullet, but got wild fliers. I know others have had great luck with them.

My concern was that lightning energy is probably more than household ground can handle. Direct to a properly sized and installed ground rod is another thing. Having been hit by lightning gives me a...

I swage a 250 grain lead tip boattail that shoots great in my AAC /H&R singleshot. I have shot inch groups at 100 with it. I made bullets with 3 different ogive shapes, 6S, 8S and 12S. The only...

I have a 34ish rifle that shoots 00 great. At one point I had purchased several hundred pounds of buck for a project that didn't materialize. Bullets forever for that rifle.

I picked up a 36 maxi mold from this forum and it works pretty good in my underhammer. Its not quite as accurate as a patched ball but accurate enough for the Primitive Biathlon match I shoot and...

I had the opportunity to shoot a 45-120 original Sharps with full loads. Even in the heavy Sharps, the recoil just didn't stop. You definitely need to roll with it. We were shooting balloons with...
