Thanks guys that gives me an idea. Depending on if I can afford one or both of them I my try and buy them myself. Partially because there the presses I learned to load on some 40 odd years ago, and...

I have the unfortunate duty to get rid of a bunch reloading equipment of a buddy of mine that can no longer load to help pay medical costs. In his room he had several presses, one A2 and a Bair...

My mistake, sorry

After I contacted the Sheriffs department up there, I got an email 2 days later that he was sending my dies. I emailed back and asked about my press and he pretty much blamed all his problems on me,...

Yes sir those are the dies mister Boots sold me, what a gentleman. He spent hours with me on the phone getting me up and running. I hope he gets the chance to get out here and shoot some prairie...

No the boolet dies are old SAS dies, they show a little wear around the point but it dosent seem to have any effect on the accuracy. I bought them from a fellow that bought them back in the 60's for...

The ring dies are in the center of the top picture, there just 5/8" O1 tool steel drilled and reamed then polished to the size of the jacket that I want with a slight chamfer to start the jacket. ...

For the past year I have been playing with the idea of making 17 cal boolets out of 22lr cases. The idea started with making myself a 22 de-rimming die, I figured if I can squeeze 22 cases to 22cal...

Don't hold your breath to long I sent him a check last Feb for a set of dies and press, he wont answer my calls at all now. He had been giving me every excuse you can think of, I gave him the...

I also have a theory or opinion and every one knows opinion's are like, well you know what. I have been making 17 caliber bullets out of 22LR jackets, and I noticed that some brands shot better than...

I shoot an original 38-50 on a Hepburn. I was lucky enough to get Ron Long to build me a mold for the gun since it slugs .382 . Its a spritzer type mold that throws a 330gr bullet at 1:25 alloy. ...

I have a 625gr .510 mold, not sure if it would work but it would darn sure get your attention!

I too had one heck of a time with that darn spring. But now I have had mine for about 4 years and its no big deal I don't know if I got smarter or the spring loosened up a bit. I change mine to 460...

Non of the Martini's are to hard to work on, most folks like to use the smaller Martini's like the cadet, for small calibers. I just finished up 2 Cadet Martini's one in 17 Bee and the other in 19...

Thats what the ashes are for, but instead of cooling the metal down in a matter of minuets, the ashes cool them down over a period of hours. The slower you cool the metal the softer it is. As far...

All I do to machine old drill bits is to get them bright red hot and stick them into a bucket of old ash's. After they cool you can machine them how ever you like. There nothing more than O1 tool...

Thats the beauty of a ML you can build one with a Hack saw, file, and a drill. I have built many muzzle loaders from old parts. I built a double flint lock from old set of 16ga. barrels the only...

There a lots of ways to make a liner not show, I have coned the muzzle and then press fit a tapered bushing but after its blued you could still see the liner. Now I counter bore the muzzle and...

Although the author doesn't talk about re chambering or rebarreling in the May/June issue of the Rifle Shooter magazine a fellow sporterized a Mosin, I don't care what any one says that is a nice...

4 cavity GC for me please

Count me in.

It is here, I have shot it a few times so far. At 100yds it hits dead on with the left barrel and about 3 inches to the right with the right barrel. I have noticed that it has some rather large...

I just realized that I said just a 4 cavity it needs to be a 4 cavity "GC" please.

I have built several guns on the action your talking about for different folks. All Martinis are fun to play with they make a nice gun when your done. The biggest thing I have found is that the...

No I'm not expecting a H&H I have had some doings with the Baikal family of firearms. Most of them that I have run across have had to have some trigger work done. I seem to compare them with...
