Me too!

My favorite powder for my Lee Enfields and cast boolits is Unique. I use the Lyman 314299 mold which drops a 200 gr. casting which I size to .314. I use 10 to 12 gr. of Unique [each rifle has its own...

Truly sorry for the loss of your Dad. The pain in your heart will gradually fade and that pain will be replaced with all kinds of warm and loving memories of your father. Keep in mind, too, you will...

Another thing to consider is your cheek weld on the stock. It should be consistent from shot to shot. If you have to lift your head off the stock to see through the rear peep sight, you will have...

I'll second that recommendation for Sage's Outdoors gas checks. They make first class products!

10/4 on Mr. Gibson's post.

I've picked up Mec's at flea markets, swap meets, garage sales and gun shows for really good prices. It's amazing what's out there so just be patient and keep looking around. I would strongly advise...

I have a Finnish Model 28/30 that shows heavy use and has a worn bore that still shoots amazingly well. Considering the history of these rifles and how much combat use they were subjected to, I would...

I am another shotgunner who really likes Winchester 209's. I haven't seen that brand of primers out here on the west coast for the last few years so I have switched over to Cheddite's and I am very...

The 358156 mold was the first mold I ever purchased. I read about it in a number of Mr. Skelton's articles and decided I had to try it. I found one at one of the old Cal Expo gun shows in Sacramento,...

I have 3 Swede Mausers and I use Lyman mold #'s 266469 and 266673. I load 16 grains of 2400 with any brand of magnum primer for each bullet from the previously mentioned molds. Very accurate combo in...

I have a Mauser HSC that I picked during the Vietnam fracas while serving in Uncle Sam's Army. Very accurate with both cast and condom bullets and fun to shoot. Sure is a bear to find all those...

Nothing is more disconcerting than to look down and see the pavement whizzing by through rusted-out floorboards and wondering if your ass was about to fall out onto the highway. Yeah, Midwestern...

10/4 on Ballistol. Synthetic 0/20 weight motor oil and Marvel Mystery Oil are very useful as well.

LOVE the 358156 as well. It was the first mold I ever bought but that first mold was purchased, used, at a gun show back in the early eighties. It's a double cavity and when it is up to temperature,...

Congratulations! I have a 1943 DOT 98K that I use for cast bullet shooting and for CMP competition on the 100 yd. reduced targets. The 8x57 is a very easy cartridge to load for and it really responds...

Great photo's!

I have a Redding T7 turret press that I received as a Christmas present. Best Christmas present I ever got! Built like a tank, seven die positions, easy to use and maintain..what's not to like?

30/06 all the way!

I have a 1944 Remington 03/A3, two groove barrel, that I use for match shooting. My load is the RCBS 200 gr. SIL bullet cast from wheel weights, 20 gr. of Rel.7 sparked by a magnum primer. This load...

I use 16 gr. of 2400 and a magnum primer with a 225 gr. bullet. Shoots tighter than I can hold with a German 1943 DUV 98K.

In my 03/A3, I use a derivation of the old Jim Carmichael 300 Win. Mag. practice load for match rifle shooting. I use 20 Gr. of Reloader 7, magnum primer, no filler, L.C. Match '06 brass, under the...

Hmmm. I checked my Lyman stuff and, sure enough, it's been inspected by "Lucy" too. That begs the question..does Lyman only have one inspector?

My serious hunting rifles are all Leupold scope equipped but I do have a number of knock- around, beater rifles that have Japanese Tasco scopes on them. Years ago, before I could afford Leopold or...

Ithaca Model 37 or a Marlin 120..all the way!
