Dont forget to recycle them with worn out brass. Might be enough to buy a few more primers at some point.

Been working my way through 3000 pcs of .45acp range brass. Got a big plastic coffee can cleaned, sized,primed, and belled. Already loaded a 100 last night. 5grains bullseye individually weighted...

I like the current bottle for sizing my cast bullets. I do not think i really want to have more hanging under my press. That could end up being to much weight for the press. I size my 405 grain to...

I have not used the APP for crimping gas checks. Not sure how it would work for that particular application.
Forum: Casting Equipment
I use it for my powdercoated all the time. I have to crimp on gas checks anyways. Like stated above just back off on the pressure screw. Its a decent option instead of buying something else. (I did...

Guys he is shooting a 45-70. High speed bullets are not a thing. The most i have pushed my 45-70 is 1900 with a 405 grn bullet. That put a hurting on the shoulder after a few ! So lets keep that in...

That sounds like a good idea. I wound up getting the lee bench plate when i got my app. So now i have my co-ax mounted on the wood plate and gonna put my lyman 4500 on another peice of wood to make...
Forum: Reloading Equipment
As of right now i size cast bullets with mine. That was my main reason (because i let them sit to long and they got pretty hard to size in my lyman 4500). I found out with the universal case feeder i...

All good ideas. I guess i just have to keep my eyes open. Relearning to use my right hand only goes so far as i had cut a tendon in march an had two surgeries on my thumb. So while i have use of my...

Well i knew about the rowell but they are made for right handers. And i really dont have access to a welder, if i did i would have converted a rowell #2 or something. I did see a a fairly heavy duty...

I see we have the same gun same chrono and almost the same mold (mine has the grease grooves). My penta pins are coming out @ 430 with gas check and powdercoated. I live in Minnesota so snow is no...
12 gauge would be my choice. home defense, hunting anything it will do the trick.
Forum: Casting Equipment
Ok here is the deal. I am a new caster. Only had about 10 sessions so far. My casting concentrates on my 45-70 four gang molds. Which is the problem. I want to ladle cast but the two ladles i have...
Forum: Group Buy Results
Anybody have any load data for this mold ?
Forum: Casting Equipment
Very nice ! I built mine before i even started casting. It took one variable out of casting so i could concentrate on other things. I only had the internet at the time to help me learn.
Forum: Reloading Equipment
I get the same error messages.
How about for those of us that only have a phone ?
