    You probably have the same Lee mold I have. It sounds like it anyways. I use the 124gr data with no issues.

    Worksharp. I keep one on my bench. A couple minutes and I’m done. It works especially well on the knife I use for work. It gets hit with it every day.

    You might want to slug your bore too. My 336 likes them .311 instead of .310. I’ve shot plain cast, powder coated and gas checked. I’ve pushed them all around 1800 FPS with no issues.

    I would at least contact them. Tell them what happened and they may at least get a logo to you. It never hurts to ask and I’ve always known them to be a good company.

    I’ve been tumble lubing the standard way and powder coating. I’m going to have to try this. Especially on my 30-30 cast bullets.

    This is amazing. Great ingenuity. I would you use a PLC though but I have a lot of experience with them. A lot more customization that way. But regardless, amazing job.

    FR clothing sucks in the summer. I wear it daily here in TN. I was in Scottsdale and Phoenix for a year. The winters are great but the rest of the year sucks.

    Same case but shorter length. 556 has a longer leade in the chamber. I would say very possible for 300 BO to chamber but, as stated in the video, the Bullet won't go far.

    Mine hums as well. I don't know why either. It works fine though and I know Lee will take care of it if anything happens so I just keep rocking along. I've put about 75 lbs through mine so far.

    Tried out my new Lee R.E.A.L. muzzle loader Bullet molds. I think I'm gonna like these. I got both the 250 gr and the 320 gr.
