Do you mean the card between the powder and the gas seal? If so you will probably find, like i just did last Monday, that the card will just deform the lips on the gas seal, and cause deformation of...

The first thing I would suggest changing is the 28 gauge card to a 16 gauge card in the bottom of a 12 gauge shotcup. In my buck and slug loads it acts as another gas seal and helps keep things...

Interesting color pattern on that deer, lots of white. Nice shot also.

Couldn't agree more. The effects of steel's poor ability shows in the pheasant fields in SD also. It's rare my dogs don't find crippled birds in WMA's or WPA with nasty remnants of steel in them.

Might look at the Farm Supply type stores or places that sell salt for water softner. They used to put a heavy poster type board between the salt and the pallet, just slightly smaller than the pallet.

I use the nitro card wads in 16 gauge, they fit the bottom of most wads and the base of the 7/8 oz lee slugs.

Kev18,
If the fuel pump was pumping fuel out the vent hole (meant for air) the fuel pump is shot. They are an easy fix and cost about $22.00 (US). It is a good idea since the fuel pump is leaking,...

Try filling the gas tank all the way. The way the tank is mounted in the machine it almost gravity feeds. Give it a good run, or try to replicate when it was bogging before. If filling the tank fixes...

Beaver stumps really suck! Little ones try to go through the belly, big ones stop you RIGHT NOW. Bumping Balsam with a new snow load is Refreshing. LOL

Kev18,
I've got a 1997 Tundra LT. Same machine as yours except you have electric reverse. Great trapping machine, and I've brought a great many beaver out of the woods on that machine.

I scorched my first double batch of Ben's Red on my first attempt to make it (too much heat). It came out darker in color than it should have, so I didn't want to use it as a bullet lube. I now use...

Not sure what kind of press you are using, but with a Mec 410 die set, there is an additional spacer on the wad guide assembly to allow the wad guide to travel farther downward, to compensate for...

You may have broken fingers on your wad guide. Is it crushing the same side of the shell each time?

Trapping was good, but prices were horrible. Sold 44 beaver green skun for $6.50 each, and 60 dried at $7.50 a lb. Good news was castor was $90 a lb dried.

Buy a Dixietan kit or have it done at a tannery. It cost about $12 or less to get it garment tanned.

If the rb’s are lubed/coated they shouldn’t glue together, rather just form a tight cushioned seat. You could also make sure by rolling them on a hard surface before loading to ensure they weren’t...

Has anyone tried using Gorilla glue or expanding foams to make seats in wads for round balls? Seems like if you could control the amount applied in the wad, with coated round balls, it should work. A...

Good advise barrabruce.

The fur market is as fickle as the women who wear it. If I had to guess on what will make the next big splash I'd say red fox, with the younger professional women. It's flashy, soft and different....

Mtec,
The Koreans manufacture some fur for other markets. There is very little fur actually consumed inside Korean, and most of which is ranch mink, like the rest of the world. The wild fur market...

Brewer12345,
Maybe try using the pewter with coww alone if your looking for a tougher bullet. If you add 5 oz of Pewter (.3125) to 17 lbs of coww it gets you 94.5 lead, 3.05 Sb, 2.16 Sn, and .03...

Has anyone tried powder coating buckshot?

Mold Maker,
I believe you meant our forefathers just about eliminated the wolf. Coyotes, at no point in history, despite millions of dollars spent on control efforts, have ever been in short supply....

Mega,
I'm escorting my wife on a small buying trip the next two days. We are staying at the Mille Lacs casino and will be at Mille Lacs Unclaimed freight tomorrow some time. If you want to meet me...
