I assume this is a custom made mould, it is an Ideal block, but it sure looks like an experiment. I was thinking a lightweight plinking boolit for .45-70's but it has provision for gas...
I have the first two. I would say the Blackhawk wins for versatility, as you have such a variety of loads to shoot. Think about it, how many different 45 acp loads alone, plus the 45 Colts....which...

This sure seems like the perfect mould if you own a 1911 and could only own 1 mould. Of course we all know you just can't own one mould....I'm just saying.

Has anyone loaded this combo? When I use the existing crimp groove, the loads seem to long to seat in the cylinder. Is the solution just to seat back further, or buy another pistol in .454? Any...
I also posted in the "wanted" section of the buy/sell section. I have a buddy that owns a great old family gun, a like new Model 14 in the 25 Rem caliber. I would like to be able to get reloading...

I may have over paid a bit for these two, but some fine examples of beautiful old Ideal artwork. Both square groove, the Keith is pretty early both pre-vent and standard set screw for sprue plate...

Another wunnerful Lyman service story that is unfolding....
I had a 68569 that I picked up without a plug. Well, normally I have a great machinist from this site make all my replacement pins and...

Is this version common? I have a 2 cavity, and don't remember ever seeing one. Lots of the hollow base SC variety.

I'd like a nice copy of the original '344 if it does happen.

Brownells had a good deal on one, under $100 with shipping. Just bought one two weeks ago, but will be a while to put together an upper.
I came across a nose pour 30 caliber NEI, just wondering if it is original or someones after the fact work. It has a pivot at the bottom with a disk, and opens and closes a lot like the hollow base...

Not sure. My Chrony died. I think less. I tried scope, hated it. I really need to get out there and shoot though. Lots of loads ready, time short.

This is all dependent on what you are trying to achieve. If you are shooting the loads I mentioned, 311241's work fine, and lead can be 50/50 WW and pure lead. If you're wanting to go faster,...

My AR10 was an original Portuguese Kit. That was probably 20 years ago. Everything went together perfect. Just saying.
I wish I still had that Rifle. It was awesome!

I shoot RCBS 165gr SIL, which if you ask around, is a pretty common go-to for the Swiss, but have shot 311413, 311332/4, 311278, 311241, the mentioned K31...

I guess more than anything, I don't like the Midway recessed screw that I can only seem to set to too hot or not quite hot enough, to way to cold. I was just hoping for a more accurate way to adjust...
