During all my shooting life of 50 years, I have bought, sold, traded, gave and received firearms as gifts. The most regretted one is letting off the 10/22. The fact that may be You don't...

I own a bolt action 22 RF rifle in almost factory new condition. No more than 200 rounds fired. At a 25 meters (about 22.5 yards), using winchester or remington RN ammo, a ten shot group from a rest...

JABO: I accidentally deleted and extensive thread. I'll resume. Plain candle wax is fine when molten with vaseline. Dont' remember the proportion. Try and error until You get the desired texture....

Forgot: Bees wax and Lard is 50/50 by volume not wheight.

Due to the difficulty to find factory reloading components, where I live, I have been experimenting with ingredents that can be found even in grocery stores. Plain wax candles don't stick well to...

After Xmas dinner at my daughter's , I couldn't sleep. It was 8 am. So I mounted my casting equipment and cast about 300 45 ACP. Wonderful morning.

I appreciate the experience of the casters who have `posted on this thread, however for over 40 years I have used 90% wheel weight and 10 % solder tin with great results. Almost no leading. I rifles...

My molds are steel, don't know the effect on aluminum molds.

For years I have used a camping stove to melt my bullets. On one side of the the fire I put a steel plate under the mold to keep it from warping on the other side over the direct fire I put the...

I had the idea that my 45 ACP, 625 S&W would present some problems like for example, misfires if I don't use the full moon clips. I reload using 200 gr. round nose lead bullets and 4.5 to 5 grs....

Where I live, tumbling media is quite difficult to obtain, almost impossible. A friend gave me a few pounds that I'm using. The guy said that the media could be washed then dried. Is this really...

lead has a higher friction level than copper, so common sense seems that they originate more pressure but the grease on lead bullets is also a factor that reduces friction. I really would like an...

[SIZE="2"][SIZE="4"]I own a Rossi lever action and a Colt King cobra, both chambered for 357 mag.
Checking for reloading data I was surprised to see that they cite different powder charges. Factory...

You're right I hadn't read the thread carefully, now I understand what it is about. I'll go to the sites You mentioned.:coffee:

After many years using a lot of cast bullets someone gave me as payment of a debt, around 6000 bullets for 357 mag, 9.mm and 45 ACP. I decided to go back to casting my own. On a recent trip to Miami...

I would like to know the adventages of lead hammer, may be something I ignore.
I understand that soft metal tools are used to avoid damage to iron or steel parts such as screws or pins and can't...

You guys got me really puzzled. I've been reloading for fourty years and seen, used and heard of bullets of all kind, lead, copper, brass, zinc, plastic and much more. Forgive my ignorance. What are...

Thank You very much for your concern and generosity. I don't have a problem financing my hobby. I have an account and credit cards from an american bank. The real problem is the difficulty of legally...

Twidget, I took the time and went down to my basement-work shop. I formed one 7x57 from a 308. In fact the neck resulted 1/4" short. I put a light load (110 JSP) over 11 800X. It worked fine. No gas...

Thanks a lot for your replies. I'm sure most of my posts and questions seem somewhat strange; that's because shooters in my country are in real exile, when keeping our guns active due to the scarce...

I have a 98 belgian mauser carbine in 7x57 cal. Some nut "sporterized" it, hacking the stock and filing the barrel's first ramp to give it a uniform profile. Patiently I worked on the military stock...

Is it possible to form 7x57 cases from 308 or 7.62 nato cases. I know the 308 case is significantly shorter than the 7x57 but has a bit larger diameter. Could the 308 be run in a 7x57 resizing die...

The hair dryer's exit goes in a plastic bottle's cutoff base. The mouth of the bottle in a bamboo pipe, the bamboo pipe in an iron pipe, the iron pipe in the charcoal.

The bamboo doesn't transmit...
