I have used a lot of the WC844 and WC846 over the years. Used them in both .223(55g) and .308(165g). The H335 I have never tried but they always wrote to use the H335 data for the WC844. I have...

I have had very good luck with BSSP press and dies for .224 only. When I wasnt so busy I had talked to him about 7mm dies but started working out of town a lot and never pulled the trigger.

I have never used the WC872 before, just the WC860. I have only used it in the 50BMG and have never tried a charge with a kicker on smaller rounds. Have you tried the duplex loads before?

I dont have a preference but use all brands. I do seperate and swage in blocks by brand. I make slightly different weight bullets based on brand as well.

This is a month or so late, but did you ever call him? I have e-mailed him over the years but the phone was always faster. Between one and two years was the last time I had contacted him.

On my LNL AP, I got bigger diameter o-rings for it right from the beginning. Ive never had any of the dies or powder charge come loose. Ive seen videos of powder charges come loose before.

Is this made with what looks to me as being an ice cream maker motor?
I like it

I would try one for the hell of it but I never felt the need to get one. It doesn't hurt my feelings to do 223s in two stages. When its perfected, we'll see.

I havent been on in quite a while but I have run my rimfire jacketed bullets up to almost 3650fps with no problems holding together. These were 55.5g bullets through a 22-250with a 1/12 twist. This...

For plinking out of an AR, I use 55g fmj with 25g of wc844. Then with 55g v-max and 25.6g of same powder with the bolt gun it shoots pretty tight groups.

For lubing my rifle cases, I use synthetic oil straight out of the bottle. One quart has lasted a long time so far. I dont do more than 1000 .223s at a time and other cases usually 100 or less. I...

I ended up going with Blackmon as well 5 to 6 years ago. I have been more than satisfied with the BSSP press and dies. I started with the 223 set up for 22RFs. I dont trim brass after de-rimming...

Just found this thread and not too old but Im a neck guy. I like the neck mostly cut to 3/4 inch steaks with tiny bit of salt and pepper. If I cook it as a roast, I sear it in 1/2 cup of oil. Then...

I must have got lucky on mine because I prime on my press and have loaded 1000sss of 223 and 9mm with no primer issues. I havent used a case feeder on mine so no comment on that. The only problem I...

I built a case feeder for my LNL AP but it not quite finished yet. I used a 5 gallon bucket for the hopper and I think a 2 rpm bbq rotisserie motor that I got free. More than fast enough with 10...

I only have experience with the press. It should be 7/8" threads on top for regular dies with the adapter. I have never taken mine off the top so not sure if its 1 and 1/4" threads or not. I have...

I only make open tip bullets with Blackmon dies but had talked to him a little about a heavier round nosed bullet 2 or 3 weeks ago. I would like to see the bullet youre making if you have any pics. ...

Thx. I did adjust it a little down. I just forgot to mention it. I was bored and didnt want to load em all at once, so going to load the other 500 today.

Ive never used it on my LNL AP. It looks like they are case specific, one for 223 and one for 308. Ive done a few hundred 223s on my brothers dillon swage tool to try it but it comes with large and...
