I have a japchester light weight and had issues with light hammer strikes . Problem got fixed years ago by replacement with a browning hammer

For a first post , it is a great one !

Good Idea , there .

I could use 2k of .375

While you are still on a roll, go buy a lotto ticket or two .

My heart will always be in Montana .

Since we are dreaming , How about a 24 inch barrel ,2/3 mag ,strait grip , shotgun butt , in 32-40 ? And its twin in 38-55 .

I load that boolit to mid 1600 fps . Recoil is "stout" yes but but it is a slow recoil . I have loaded that boolit to 1800 fps and the recoil combined with fast muzzle...

I do the same thing with my saeco sizer when :
I need to size before heat-treating
and for nose-sizing long-skinny rifle boolits .
It works , it is slow , having to size twice , but it works .

Memory fails me too , as to what the parts are called and the date of the magazine article ..... However my 1886 ex-lite japchester had the problem and it was an easy fix . It had to do with one of...

Everyone that I am aware of , has noted that as-cast boolits are always 25-35 grains heavier that the list weight . I'm not sure why that is . It may...
