Yep, we take the meat. Makes ok eatin when made into sausage. Fall bears don't have to be salvaged because they've been into the wormy fish, but spring bears you have to salvage the meat.

My 12 year old daughter and I had a great spring Black Bear hunt. She finished her hunters safety class last year and was itching to do some hunting. Our dear hunt fell apart and the only fall...

Fatnhappy you had me rolling. Masticated Fart Locker! Gotta share that one with him. Had the state trooper wildlife guys call, wanted to know all the details. Guess they consider that an attack...

Hey guys just got back from hunting the back yard (well 50 miles back anyway). Went back chasing Brown Bears with a buddy. He stuck his with his bow, and I took mine with my pistol. Amazing hunt! ...

Maven, I am sizing in a star sizer (no top punch). I see what your saying about the nose being somewhat flattened, but that is how all of the boolits have been dropping from the mold. The slug used...

I Mic'd it just now at .3092. Here it a picture of the boolit. http://castboolits.gunloads.com/picture.php?albumid=455&pictureid=3360
The nose is nowhere near as wide as the driving bands. What am...

After loading up my test batch of ten last night I found the Lee C309-180R boolits contact the lands in my Kimber. I have gone from 2.8 OAL to 2.4 OAL just to get my bolt to close. I did slug my...

I am casting with Lino out of a Lee C309-180R and getting boolits at around 170 gr sized with GC's on. I have searched high and low for advice on reloading lower velocities for Cast Bullets and...

Chris, I recieved the dies in the mail last week; they were beautiful and worked perfectly. I will be using you for all of my future star sizer needs.
Thanks a bunch.

Wow, wish I could find the same deal. Finding these to run around $150+. Im too cheap! Going to swag the throats and barells. Looking to buy a micrometer to get better measurements than my...

I can appreciate your analogy! I was a long way from buying a set of .425 dies. Due to lack of tools I wanted to verify that the measurements I was getting were far from correct. Where do you...

Hey guys, quick question for you all.
I have a pair of S&W model 629's in 44 Mag that I have yet to cast a boolit for. I am in on the group buy for the MiHec brass H&G #503 .44 Caliber Keith. ...

I know this thread is a little old, but I've been chasing down the same questions and found this youtube video helpfull on how to make a slug to do the slugging with. I am cheap and dont want to go...

I use a vibrating brass cleaner with walnut media. Added Flitz Brass Case Polish to the media and it cut my time to about a fourth of what I used to do. A little spendy at $9 for a bottle but it...

I run a Lee while casting boolits, but use an old Dutch Oven and turkey burner to alloy and melt down bulk lead to pour into ingots. For the money you cant go wrong. my 2 cents
