While I like your blue lube, I don’t think it’s what he’s looking for. Not sure on red. I use it for 9mm and indoors the smoke is quite noticeable after a few shots. Not saying anything bad about it,...

That's basically what I did. Got some used PC off FeeBay for around $40. Just hooked it up today, but seems ok.

This is just a guess, but maybe when they're separating, they're hanging on at some point throwing the trajectory slightly before it comes the rest of the way off. Are the Hornady gas checks...

The ones I hate are the brass cased rounds from overseas that have berdan primers. Already had to replace a recapping rod in my Dillon thanks to one of them that slipped through.

I get once fired...

I've been playing with it in my two ARs. In the 458S it's ok. I'm still working on load development for it, but it seems to like HiTek coated. The 500 grainers hit consistently at 100yds when...

Kinda all depends on what you're running this in. If it's an AR, I'd work to get the HiTek coated bullets working. Play around with sizing, and don't forget to expand the case mouth to the proper...

Tight groups but major POI change makes a compelling case against the sighting system (whether it be irons or scope). Possibly loose, but the reticle inside could be damaged and is moving about....

Right! "Pics or it didn't happen"

No kidding. My Mr. Drippy will usually have a spire of lead under it by the time it gets hot. Luckily, this nice tall spire blocks the spout, so it eventually stops.

Still, for the price, the Lee...

You've got 1600lbs of lead. Thats practically a lifetime supply for most of us. I don't figure you'll have to go back to sorting wheel weights anytime soon.

Afar as zinc goes, I'm sure it would work but weight will be an issue. You'll be casting a bullet that is roughly 2/3 the weight it would normally be. If you can make that work, more power to you.

If you want .310 NOE makes a push through size die that's better than Lee's with the upside of being able to change the size by changing out a bushing. you really only need one body, then just buy...

And at their price point (cheaper buying from a dealer than directly from Berry's), they're hard to beat. Between the cost of alloy and time consuming process of casting then coating then sizing, I...

Powder coating and HiTek are more like plating a bullet. The coating seals the lead off from the shooter/barrel but is super thin. It's key benefit is that it eliminates the need for lubing, allowing...

I don't usually use powders from other manufacturers. I've had good luck with Hodgdon and have stuck by them for a while now. The H110 is tolerable when running without a can, but it gums up the...

I have a Lee 230 mold and an NOE 247. The first is pointed but the latter has a 0.2" meplat and cycles fine. I've got Maker 200 expanding subsonics working reliably too, and they have a meplat that's...

I've played with it in a short barreled AR (10.5 in) and you should be aware that it excels in short barrels. Even a 16" is more than is necessary. The 110 Varmegeddon R5R mentioned does well in my...

Hes not being entirely lazy. Manuals rarely have data for cast boolits in this caliber.

That said, you're both acting immature.

As far as heavy subsonics goes, it's quite difficult to overcharge when using appropriate powder. The case capacity is so heavily reduced by the bullet's massive size. In the case of many of the...

Here's what I got. Ran two sets of 5 against a Lee 230 gen powder coated. The lees did well, but the NOE's lacked accuracy. This was at 50yards. The load was with IMR 4227 and CCI 450 primer in...

191647Well, I did say AFAIK. I do know there are different readers running around. Lee obviously used the wrong one for their dies.

I've had that Gould at 1400 with just 34.0 of IMR 4198. I've...

ive got an AR500 plate (3/8") and it shrugs off M855 like everything else I've pounded it with, and it's been well abused. Everything from that M855 to 338LM to 45-70 and even 12ga sluggers. I have...

I have the mold and am eager to try the bullets. I've cast some HP's out of hardball (I know, they'll fragment) to try out and I'm quite eager to see how they do.

One thing I did notice already...

The SW 329PD airlite in 44M is far worse even than the contender when using full power loads. It weighs 1.5lb empty. SW actually says to verify that the bullets don't come unseated in the case from...

That ELCO mold is pretty nice. I've got the 2 cavity RG mold and love it. Well worth the cost. Much higher quality than my usual Lee and Lyman moulds.
