I have been using CCI 41 and Wolf small rifle primers. Never had a slamfire or out of battery.

I usually anneal the cases. Shot 1930s 30-06 brass with reduced cast loads without problems.

It's up there. I put 91 for some reason (probably thinking about the factory 71 grain). It's 90 grain, plus the powder coat.

I don't sort my plinking brass. The match loads never gets mixed with the plinking brass.

My mined berm lead is usually 12-14. I have been getting six 5 gallon buckets every six months. I should have stopped at 1k pounds, but I can sell or trade it in the future.
The goal is to make a...

They have worked for me. I have been thinking about a diy PID.

Thank you. The VZ61 will appreciate it.

Well, another mistake made by buying a 32 ACP pistol. I already have a Lee 314 91 for my 7.62 Toks, 32 S&W, and 7.62 Nagant. I would prefer not to buy another mold. However, it maybe too heavy. Does...

Thanks! I got most of my parts from SS and I am waiting on the 6.5x1.0 mm tap to fix the bugged receiver tang. Getting closer.

I have a M96 Swede already. My goal is the one who dies with the most variety of milsurps wins.

I have not dove into the 6.5x52 cartridge yet. I got a beat 91/38 I am restoring. I need future references on casting. From my brief recollection, I recall that the 6.5 Carcano is wider than the...

The wife always gives me the look when I come home with a 5 gal bucket full. The one who dies with the most stuff wins.

Well I was in a creative mood last weekend. I made a new indexing rod for my LCT press. I reversed it so it is more user friendly with the auto eject upgrade.

I have all the parts, I just was too lazy to assemble it that night. The only thing I am missing is the wrench. I'll be welding the mounting plate for my table tomorrow and take some pictures of the...

I found this RCBS Lube-a-matic at my pawn shop a couple of months ago. I finally finished cleaning it up. Not that bad for $45 and some effort. I left it in the oven on warm which leeched the old...

I have a question, well more then one. Background, these loads will hopefully be used in my Steyr M40a1 with a 4" barrel and in a Ruger PC4 with a 16" barrel. I usually reload for jacket or plated...

Thanks. I was going to smelt a couple of pounds of it, but the clouds are looming and I don't have a overhang/garage. Hopefully tomorrow will be clear.

Well I got a source for some range lead from an indoor range (nice to have friends). I was able to acquire approx. 105 lbs of range lead in a 5 gallon bucket for $20. I have casted before with .45...

I was given a tub of SR4756 powder and was wondering if I could use it in a .30 Carbine load with plated bullets under 1600fps. Is this possible?
Forum: Muzzleloading.
I'm thinking about getting a Tradition's Kentucky Rifle kit. However, the company selling it claims that it should only be used with a ball bullet. Is this true or can I use a Minie bullet?

Well my first voyage of casting came out well with the .45 ACP, now I would like to work on the Webley. It is chambered in .38 S&W and I would like to know which Lee mold and powder combination will...

I go when the Coast Guard and PD has their bi-annuals there; lots of 5.56 and 7.62x51. I even pick up berdan primed brass and reload them.
