My local scrapyard has no problem with brass or spent primers. I typically trade my scrap brass for lead.

I got a new 440 gr .502 HP mold recently for my 500 S&W. When I tried my standard 50/50 ww to pb HP alloy I got leading mid barrel and the recovered boolit weighted only 210 gr. What alloy would the...

I just started loading cast for my garand last week. I am using the NOE 311365 mold and 35 gr of IMR 4064. Accuracy was as good as my jacketed loads but the action short stroked a few times. I think...
