Thanks for the info guys. I have always heard that the RCBS furnace is the one to get. I guess I will have to start saving up for one.

I have three Lee furnaces and they seem to do a great job. I was wondering if the investment in a Lyman or RCBS would be worth it. Just wondering what brand most of you are using.

I put an ad on Craig's List under that wanted section asking for a lube/sizer. Got a response from a guy who had a lyman 450. I got the 450 with a .452 sizing die plus 60 lbs of lead ingots for...

If you put a little bit of bullet lube on the pins and on the mold where the sides of each mold mesh you usually solve this problem. You can also use sprue lube like bull plate which usually keeps...

I have a direction sheet from a Hensley & Gibb mold and it says:

"If used frequently and the climate will allow, the mold may not need oiling to protect it form rust. Usually if stored in a...

I just recently tried some sawdust and it definitely worked better than my previous method of using wax. Especially leaving a layer on top to stop oxidation. I used pine dust because that is what I...

Thanks for the replies and information. I ordered a two banger both gas checked. I should probably get a 4 cavity with two of each. I plan on loading up some mild loads with unique so why spend...

I am involved in a group buy for a copy of Ranch Dog's 311-165gr GCRF bullet with regular lube grooves. I noticed that many people are getting the mold with some cavities cut for a plain base...

I am new to loading the 30-30 Winchester. I am wondering why some people are getting this with a plain base? I am assuming it is for cowboy or plinking loads. If this is the case, what velocity...

I bought a used 450 a few months ago. When I mounted it to my workbench, I put a thin O- ring on the small round recessed area on the bottom of the sizer where the plug is before bolting it down. ...

Please put me down for a double cavity GC. PM sent

Thanks

Paid for mine today. Thanks.

I don't think that would work. I believe that the lead pots are usually heated on a heat source like a coleman stove, stovetop, campfire, etc. If smelting wheelweights, use a heat source that can...

My 45acp. autoloaders are a Springfield TRP 1911 and a FN FNP-45. The Springfield is a great gun and meets all of my needs in a 1911. the FN is a very cool gun with extremely minimal felt recoil...

Please put me down for one.

Thanks,

Bruce

Please put me down for one. I have been waiting for a re-run of this one.

Yes, that is what I meant.

I'm guessing that the two Lee bullets shoot just about the same.

Can somebody give me the OAL of a 45 acp cartridge loaded with Lee's TL 452-230-2R 45 with the bullet seated to the edge of the last tumble lube groove?

Any preference between it and the Lee...

When I first made this mixture I didn't cook down the JPW. It ended up being very thin like water too. I ended up heating the mixture back up for about 15-30minutes and now it is a nice consistancy.

If its not too late: I'd like one with two sets of pins.

I use the TL358-158-SWC. They drop at .359-360 and was too big to chamber in my revolver once they were loaded. I ran one through the .358 sizer, but it looked like it mashed down the lube grooves ...

Thanks guys. I have some of the powders you suggested and it gives me a good place to start.

I have the Lee hardness tester. It isn't perfectly simple, but it isn't that difficult either.

My friend worked in a lab that did a lead hardness test and he said that the Lee tester was...

I just picked up an old Lyman 357446 mould the other day. It makes a 162g plain base semi-wad cutter boolit with two shallow lube grooves. I also have a 158g Lee tumble lube bullet mould. I use...

I say Aug 8, around 8 pm. (8 is my lucky number).
