Thanks for the information, I will try it.

Could you please clarify how you fit the bullet to the throat?
Thanks.

Thank you for the explanation. What is the relationship between the weight of the paper and the gauge? I have read about 9 lb and 16lb etc. In Europe you see 80 grams/m2 or 60 grams/m2 etc.

Hi Jeff,
Maybe you have already tried it, but what about using Zinc. I remember an article in Handloader's digest bout a Zinc washer swaged to a bullet.

My Enfield No 4 MkII has a bore of .304 and the groove diameter is .316.The bolt head was a #0. The headspace was enormous. I would have needed a #6 bolt head and that does not exist of course. I...

I have a .299 and a .301. Send me a PM if you are interested.

+1 for 44man. Here is the link: http://www.theantimonyman.com/index.htm

To maximize case life I size the neck to 8 mm and then the .303 Br. sizing die is adjusted until the bolt just closes on the case. Putting one turn of tape around the base also helps with centering.

I was wondering about using Accurate no. 9 or no 7 . Those are not slow. Do you mean a delayed ignition with click-bang or a catastrophic unorganized sudden fieldstripping of the rifle?

The same for me , they don't want to ship to Europe. I don't understand what the problem is. They just have to put some more stamps on the envelope. :confused:

I have read that ball powders should not be used for reduced (low pressure) loads.
What is the reason for that?

A scan of the manual has been sent.

If the Vertex can use change gears it is possible to divide in 53 by using a 33 hole plate and 3 gears. I have a manual , send me a note if you want a copy.

I first had a Dillon 550 and I sold it because I thought I didn't need a progressive anymore (mistake). A friend had a loadmaster he lent to me because he was not happy with it. I did not like the...

The 113 grain Lee did not feed in my Underwood 1943. When I pushed the magazine upwards and forward they do feed. There is a lot of play in the magazine to carbine fit. I guess I will have to modify...

Lee 358 -105-SWC sized to .357 and the Lee 356 -124-Truncated cone.

Thanks for the reactions. I certainly could have bought a mold for the 32 ACP, Old ironsights. But I had the 30M1 mold and it was not much work to change it. Being a cheapskate also does not help :)...

I shoot a Walther PP in 32 ACP a lot . I still had the LEE C309-120R mold that I used for .30 M1. It seemed a good candidate for modification. The handles must be taken of first. The pins are staked...

I once had an 6.5 mm RCBS mold . I was nearly impossible to cast good bullets with this mold until the vent lines were enlarged.
