Has anyone tried to duplicate the Winchester Rooster shells with the hard buffer?

what is 45-45-10?

I havn't been here for a good while. The corona has me back in the loading room. I have a bunch of Speer swaged 357 bullets that have been around for quite a while. The box says 1974. They have or...

Does anyone use one of these? What is your opinion, pro and con.

Yes, just ordered one today from Andy. He has them on his site.

Does anyone know whether one of the older Lyman or Redfield receiver sights can be mounted on a Henry Big Boy? Contacted Williams and they said they do not make one that will fit. They said they...

1bluehorse, That looks like what I saw. Nice job. Thanks.

Lightload, Did you get the barrel mount or receiver mount? I ordered the barrel mount, but don't know if I will like it. I have shot peep sights all my life, tang and receiver, but never one mounted...

Recently watched a youtube video on the Hornady AP press. The guy had some kind of channel mortised into the top of his bench that allowed easy removal of his press which was mounted on another...

Actually 16 1/2. Carbine. The original might work. I just wondered if anyone else had done this and what their outcome had been. Skinner sells a higher front sight that you have to file off to the...

Sharf, I agree, a side mount would be more accurate, but this is a .357 with a 16" barrel. Hardly a target rifle. More of a Gator gun. Center of whistle pig is good enough.
Ramjet, Did you...

I have a Henry steel Big Boy .357 that I would like to put a receiver sight on. I like the looks of the Skinner sight, but can't tell from their web site if the original front sight will work. They...

I agree, My old Lee had two trays. Large and small. The Ergo had only one and the way it was boxed from the factory, there was not room for another tray. Makes me think they intended you to use the...

As a matter of fact,I did. If that is the case, why did it only come with one? Do you work for Lee?

The Ergo Prime must have a problem with the primer tray as they sell them in package of two. The hinge probably lets go after a while. I sent the agravating thing back and got my money back. Enough...

Not bashing Lee products. Just the Ergo Prime. Primers would get turned sidewise and jam. The "elevator" would stick and not go back into position. Bought it on ebay and returned it. Overly...

What are your recommendations and experience with priming tools. Just bought a Lee Ergo-prime. Real piece of ****. Would not recommend it. Are there any out there that work well?

Thanks to all for the advise. I'll think I will do as C.Latch suggested and try a few lighter loads and check them out. Hate to throw them away, as there are several hundred of them.

Probably 11/2 hrs. Turned oven off and went to bed.

I'm wondering if I messed up. Had a bunch of extremely dirty .44 magnum brass that I was attempting to clean up. Washed them and put them in the oven to speed drying. Set at 400 degrees. Left it in a...

True balloon head brass is formed like rimfire brass and the rim is folded and smashed flat. Semi balloon head brass has a solid rim and the primer pocket protudes into the case and is raised above...

I have a good bit of new primed semi balloon head brass. Does anyone know how much pressure it will take? Western brass.

Very interesting thread. I don't make a lot of booliits but I have been making shot and melting down a lot of wheel weights in the process. I melt them in a cast iron dutch oven and then pour into...
