I've done several lots of brass with the Lyman Primer Pocket Reamer. It works well, but you have to be sure that you don't cock it in the pocket and elongate the pocket. The swaging tool is probably...

SunDog is right. When the cherry is cut, it's almost never oversized. When new, it cuts the largest bullets, but as it wears, the resulting bullet diameter decreases. That's why the undersize bullets...

Spot on, Charley. I've had J bullets do the same thing. The sizing die is taking the case down to minimum spec. Just back it off. You don't need that much neck tension anyway. Non-concentric seating...

Sounds like the action is short-cycling due to low power loads. Switch to a slower powder and start at the minimum load to see if cycles the action reliably. Reduced cast bullet loads in auto-loaders...

I learned the same way. a documented (in my load book) 87000+ rounds later, I still follow the same process. 2 misfires in all those years. Reminds me of a flight instructor. Had me check for "gear...

Same people, Charlie. Kano Labs in Nashville. The aerosol version is labeled "AeroKroil". They make a version that has silicone in it. I wonder if it might be more effective as a bullet release....

Nice! I like it. Good job, Mongo.

Jet A is kerosene. In fact, it's the most refined form of kerosene plus it has a corrosion inhibitor added. All I have to do is check the sump on one aircraft, and if there's no water, I have enough...

I've been dipping them in the melt for years also. Haven't had one warp yet. Go to the hotplate in winter. That way, working 2 or 3 molds at a time, they all stay at the right temp. About 500 degrees...

My local cigar store sells their empty boxes. Anywhere from $1 for the hard carboard to $4 for wood boxes.

I asked a similar question on another forum and when the dust settled, the SAECO 315 and Lyman 311299/314299 ran neck and neck as the favorites. The Loverin design 311466 is also a reliable bullet.
