It seems to me that 9mm luger dies will work too. . . . ?

I cock the hammer on my double actions first. . .never could master the looooong trigger pull. Usually hit on the first shot too, so what's the point??

I found about 5 lbs of forgotten Dupont 59115SR4759 in one of my ammo cans last week. Most of my reloading is with cast boolits and I was wondering if anyone here has worked up some medium power...

Are March scopes US made or foreign?

Anyone who has asked the BATF how many guns one can buy and sell in a given period, without needing an FFL, can surely understand the vagueness of US laws designed to trap citizens of pure intent.

Rimfire: I chambered a loaded 30/30 round. It went in and extracted like it should. I have some low power lead boolit 30/30 loads with 115 grain 32-20 boolits. I will try them out next time I go up...

I recently traded for a very old Savage Model 1899. The barrel is marked Savage 30. The serial number (196XX) indicates it was made in 1902.

I was told that there is no "Savage 30" cartridge and...

Sure am glad you posted this warning!! Does this also apply to the Chinese, Iranians and other foreign nationals stealing our technology and nuclear secrets to produce their own weapons? I hope...

I never met a rich gunsmith - and I've known many.

Wish Savage would make them again with some improvements! Had one in the 60s in caliber 30/30 and also had a shotgun barrel for it. Don't remember what gauge the shotgun was - 16 or maybe 20.

Thanks for sharing your knowledge. . .I will melt the shot down and cast as is. I load mostly 30 caliber bullets at 1600 to 1800FPS which should work just fine.

A friend gave me about 50 lbs of shot reclaimed from a trap range.

Is shot hard enough to cast into bullets or would I have to alloy it with a hardener?

If so. . . . .what should I use?

My bible is the Lyman Cast Bullet Handbook.

I use comparable powder charges for cast lead bullets of the same weight and style. The powder charge for a 165 grain Lyman bullet will work for a Lee...

I sold my Nambu for $700.

Japanese Model 14 Military Pistol – Caliber 8mm.

Nambu Model 14 semi-auto military pistol circa WWII. Excellent (99%) condition, appears to be unfired – includes extra...

Unfired condition. Converted at Ishapore (India) military arsenal from .303 British Rifle to a single shot 410 Shotgun, 3 Inch shells. Bright shiny bore.

Many years ago I purchased a Savage-Anschutz Model 141 .22 sporter at a gun show. The seller was not happy with the accuracy of the rifle and sold it to me at a reasonable price. I had many brands...

Just a thought. . . . . I had the same problem with .223 dies.

An old timer gunsmith trained by P.O. Ackley looked at my Herter set up and told me to give him a resized case and my shell holder....

I use the Oregon plain base 30/30 bullet in my .308 Win with excellent results.

I have found that a 1:12" twist in .30 caliber works best for me accuracy wise. My Remington Model 700 Varmint rifle has a 1:12" twist although most .308s and 30-06s come with a 10" twist. I also...

Bar solder is usually an alloy of lead and tin. Just guessing. . .but you might have a pure tin bar.

Never understood why Ruger didn't make the No. 3 in caliber 30/30! The 30/40 Krag and 45-70 were just too much cartridge for this light carbine.

Anyone who loads reduced velocity cast bullet RIFLE loads KNOWS to top off the powder with a tuft of polyester balled up and pressed in over the powder. This keeps the powder packed against the...

I put a dab of lithium (automobile wheel bearing) grease on the base of each lead rifle bullet. I keep my velocities under 1800FPS, but have read where higher velocities can be achieved.
