I cast with one mold at a time, my WW hot plate has covered coils but to improve control I got a charcoal grill thermometer, got an aluminum block, drilled a proper sized hole and mounted the...

I inherited about 200# of mixed shot sizes in bags. No shotgun shooters that I knew were interested so I melted it into ingots with a bit of solder added. All I had to do was flux with candles and...

I went to my basement, astonished that I still had some and rummaged around a bit in a small box of old smith parts and found two hands, a correct trigger and a correct hammer assembly. The hands are...

Is there a plunger in the side plate that pushes against the hand? I do not see the pin/hole for the hand spring or the relief cut for the hand spring pin in the trigger nor the pin/hole in the hand...

Take the side plate off and see if it has a flange on the back side of the hand or a straight back hand.

I campaigned a 4” and a 6 1/2” at Second Chance for years, had a 625, two 1917s and the current early 5 screw 1950 and it is the only one to exhibit this issue. I got it for a song as it had been...

Today I went to the range with 48 rounds with 5 that had case rim diameters of .511”+ to .512”+. During shooting I had binding with those salted rounds all others were like silk in DA. The max rim...

Included are photos of what happens when the case sticks out too far when one starts to trim the rim and the second is a photo of the proper max depth to trim with a safe edge file.

I have all StarLine brass. I am using a bastard file with safe edge or smooth sides with the brass or loaded rounds gently chucked in a half inch battery powered drill. Dial calipers are locked to...

I got an S&W 1950 that has had some AR brass bind up when I shoot in DA. It does not bind in my 25/17. It appears that the hand is binding on some case rims. I measured case rim diameters and found...

I used the NOE Hunter in my Norwegian Krag with great success until a fellow had to have it and piled cash infant of me, now it has a new home.

I took a chance with Hodgdon international shotgun powder to use in light 10mm revolver loads and in some heavy bullet 9 mm loads in an 8 shot cylinder conversion. Burn rate was a factor with this...

A nice simple solution for pests. Years ago I made 41 shot shells out of 30-30 brass, had to trim the case rim a bit, cut it to cylinder length and fire formed it a bit and loaded it with #8 shot for...

An outstanding example of KIS

I have a 550 and a 550B, one large primers the other small, I adopted out two RL300s that I bought in 1979 and 1982 that are still in service. They load and load and load 11 rifle and pistol calibers...

I have had mine for decades, I have had other brands.

Back in the late 60s I would take the bus down to Viking Arms on Reno st in OKC and buy it by the scoop and pour it into a 1# coffee can and take it home for reloading 30-06 with my grandfather....

I have a Competition Electronics form years w/o problems and I live the wifi link to my phone.

I inherited about 100# of mixed sizes of shot, mixed it 50/50 with lead and a dash of tin and it has made great rifle bullets. No problems reducing into ingots and alloying it with lead.

After a couple of moves I have been going through all of my stuff, dupes, triples, extras, things I never really needed and on and on. Most has been sold to buy more stuff that I can use.

We got it resolved and now I can order online. It took some time and I am happy again. As a Dillon customer for 4 decades, yes 4 starting with an RL300 in 1979 I have been exceptionally happy with...

Done the rebooting etc. but here is the other side of the story, I cannot edit two items in my profile as they are locked, one is that Dillon has me listed as commercial instead of residential and...
