I just takes a lot longer than gas to melt initially. I used to use a camp stove and stainless pan, but using a ladle it's nearly impossible to fill a six cavity

It leaks out the hole on the bottom and onto the bullet ejector assy from the die hole. After switching to an rcbs die(maybe the recessed ring the holes on the side are in help) and a softer,...

Even if I only apply pressure with a bullet in the die, way more leaks out and the grooves only get filled a little in the places near holes, the leakage is extremely profuse. Lyman HI dies are all...

No lathe or knowledge here.

Well if none of the rcbs parts work and switching only to rcbs lube-a-matic dies doesn't work I'll get in touch with the local gun an silencer factory a friend works at here, shouldn't cost a dime to...

It's screwed down as far as it goes, I wonder if maybe the new dies are slightly shorter or something now compared to back then

Is this a feasible task? Cut part of out casing around the bottom without messing up the spout and put a camp stove under it?

If those parts don't work you think I can stick a thin o-ring below the die?

I called and the guy said he'd send me some parts for free, but I don't really see what parts are below the die that could be replaced to stop it leaking from there, there really should be a second...

I doubt they're even in business, they sold the design to rcbs, it's identical to rcbs lube-a-matic I, unless you mean call rcbs

I bought a very very old, but still fairly functional lachmiller lube-a-matic it does size and lube bullets (after I used a heat gun to melt out the petrified lube) using Lyman dies, though with...

I did buy a .311 die for the used lube sizer I have on the way

I'm getting a bad link there

So if I size to .311 and it fits a fired neck it should work OK?

I keep seeing stuff about casting and oversizing boolits for microgroove barrels. Mine is 3030, and I've seen a few posts saying the Lee .309 molds work great in these barrels, I bought a 170 and a...

Yes it churned out .22-250 rounds like a champ yesterday

I don't have anyone to teach me how to use it. They don't even have vocational schools for machining anymore besides CNC

And a lathe is even more expensive than a die

I hear it's night impossible to get the main cylinder out of the base.

FYI they don't make dies for that size and thread pitch anymore either, you might get lucky and get a used one on eBay, but it'll be from the 60's latest, I bought a used one and it snapped in half...

I chamfered the edges of the hole the detent ball resides in, because I noticed it was jamming inside, I won't be able to tell if this is helpful until we've repaired the threads (they're far beyond...

For future reference in case anyone needs to know the threads are 1-1/8"x28tpi

My dad may be able to find a die for it to clean them. He might be able to borrow one from his job as an oilfield mechanic

Really!? Thanks!
