I had run out of JPW and Trewax for tumble lubing. Looking around the garage I found some Turtle Wax Ingrediants not listed on can. I decided to try it anyway. Boolets (.45 180 SWC). They...

I have "helped" a friend shooting groups before. He never did figure out why he was shooting the wild shots.

I've taken white-tail with the Hp and the Sp 358156. The solid resulted in more clean kills than the HP. More penetration, I suppose. This was with a .35 Remington.
Straight wheelweights on both.
Boss Hoss,
What load are you using for the Seaco 130? I'm shooting it in a Springfield XDM.
Haven't found anything that compares with Lyman 452460.

I'm looking at a can of Trewax. On the side it says......."USE ON!....Furniture, Woodwork, or Hardwood, Vinyl, Cork and Linoleum Floors, Marble, and Metal Surfaces"

I use JPW only on .45 ACP. Several different molds. No Problems.

Seat it deep enough to pass the plunk-test, and don't worry about over-all length. I've shot a lot of that bullet in an XDM with 5.9 231 or 9.3 Blu-dot.

The New York Times had an article on the NRA Show. Surprisingly, it was pretty good reporting, compared with thier usual tripe.
I asked on another board why I should be shooting Zombies and are...

I have a Hartford EMF .357. (Rossi) I have a RCBS 125 mould, a Lyman 125 mould, and a Lee 125. The Lee shoots more accurately than the others, go figure!

I have one in .45 ACP. Tried all the suggestions to enlarge the carbide ring to no avail. Took a hacksaw to it and have loaded a lot of rounds since with not a lick of trouble. I thought I might...

A friend gave me a Lortone QT6, it holds about two trips to the range .45 ACP brass. Takes about 2 hours in walnut and flitz. Gets them as clean or better than a Lyman vibrator and a lot quieter.

I have the Lyman 358156 double cavity. Works great! No problems and is very accurate in several pistols and .357 Lever-action carbine. Have killed a lot of deer with this boolet in .35
Rem....
Someone mentioned a while ago about using a cut-off water bottle on top to the die to catch the sized boolets. Works great!!!!!

I've been using a Lee Classic Turret to load .45 ACP. Just purchased 1000 Federal L.P. primers. The package for each 100 primers was designed by an evil genius who has a diabolical hatred for...

I put some JB Weld on mine. Has been holding for several pots full. Keeping fingers crossed and operating valve handle gingerly.

Lee boolet is 1 radius, Lyman is 2 radius. Lee has to be seated deeper to chamber in most bbls.
