Maybe you are thinking I was talking about shortning the whole thing until that dinged up section was gone?
Well that isn't going to happen.
I'm going to chuck it in the lathe and clean those...

Update.
Was in getting a package of magpul goodness when a rather odd stuffed envelope with Italian postage stamps made it's way into my hands.
I didn't think Peitta was going to send me a...

I wonder if a 6 shot model could be reamed for 5.7 x 28.

Ahh well I haven't heard back by email after sending my addy to whom ever I was conversing with.
I didn't specify any lenth figuring if they send me a short one I can mod the rammer or a long one...

If it was shot a bit more straight on you would see it better.
Where I really could tell was when I unscrewed it from the frame and used my forcing cone cutter on the lathe to deepen that.
I had...

Friends, bought a used Peitta 1858 Remington stainless 44 capnball.
Actually has been years ago.
I didn't get around to looking it over until recently, I needed to replace the nipples.
I...

Here is the stuff he already gave me.
I found a sawzall with wood blade to work great on lead pipe so it was great on this too. First little pile was just one role.

Don't have my location posted?
I am in Wyoming.
There is some backing paper stuck to it that will have to be burned off.
I think that a saws all is what I'll use to cut it

Friends, guy I work with gave me some sheet lead.
Said a buddy of his is a contractor and salvaged this.
I'm thinking dentists office or something?
Well what I am wondering is, that stuff is...
Friends, I am currently using winchester waa12 wads and am wondering which other wads are good for just general sky busting clay target loads. EI which ones are as versatile as the waa12. Or that...
I found the remingtons in my manual. Was afraid they were like the Winchester promo shells and not worth loading. Weird how the same hull is called several different names by Remington. They do...
Does anyone have info on the wally world cheep Remington low brass Sport load hulls? They appear to have a one piece hull kind of like the old Win AA but a steel head.
And, Challenger Victory...
Hatch look for small differences in the bullet nose shape. I get seating depth differences in the speer 40 gr hp that I am loading because the o,iwishicouldspellit,gleeve is a bit different on each...
What is it a full moon or something in the water? :veryconfu
Well you are right that it shouldn't be an issue on a factory new gun. I just couldn't let my new toy pass through my grubby hands. So that's what I do. :)
I have found that some of the factory rounds have different sized rim dimentions also. So if a case sticks look at that case and I'll bet that the extractor isn't grabbing it. My then new to me tcm...
Let us chat my friend. Did you try this on the single seven? I treid it and I think either I didn't go far enough or the spacing may be too tight. It now binds a small bit while turning the...
Well I decided on 5 grains of Unique. That should give me around 1000 to 1100 fps. As near as I could come with QL was a 6.1 max charge at around 1300. So I'll start at 5 to be safe. 5 is also...
Friends, the only bulk 32 cal bullets that I could find are 115 gr rnfp beveled base for the 32-20. I didn't have a lot of luck loading my cast lee 100 gr bullets in the 327 at moderate velocities....
You'll have problems crimping the 45acp maybe because of the whole taper crimp roll crimp thing. Although I have a set of hornaday 45acp dies that won't taper crimp worth a hoot either and use an...
Yes pichers. We needs em. I love the m10 and previous pre and pre war HE models.
My favorite out of the 6-8 of those is a wide sight bladed m10-7 royal hong kong police gun 4" barrel.

I have tried it in a 380 and 9mm. I think it is too slow for a good 380 load and had some un burnt powder. It seems to work as advertised in the 9mm. I am using berrys and another brand of plated...
I did one myself. Used a timberwolf 357 barrel. Bought the die that fits the barrel threads on sale some where and turned it to fit. The stainless timberwolf barrel took cold bluing just fine too....
I've loaded a hornaday 90gr hbwc in 32-20 brass for mine. Come to think of it though, I haven't gotten back to accuracy test them. The revolver is a Swedish. I just wanted to shoot it at the time....
