I'll be staying with Eastwood's blue until I holler at Smoke.

Thank y'all for the input. I believe I'll stick with the Ford light blue. It covers perfectly and almost matches my old F150.

The bullets were completely and very evenly covered with powder prior to going into the oven. I just ran a second test batch of ten. These also went into the oven covered properly and came out just...

I've been using the shake and bake method without issue for years. HF red, Eastwood blue and green have always been problem free.

My wife surprised me with...

You nailed it, as did others, and I genuinely appreciate the responses.

I ordered a Double Alpha expander funnel for my 550 and had Castboolit's lathesmith make me a .402 sizing die for my Star....

That could be, but that would mean Bayou Bullets would be as well. More so, give how badly they leaded. I think I'll order an expander from Double Alpha.

All four guns are stock.

I've pulled a random sampling while dealing with this and the coating is not getting scraped off while being seated.

My bullets pass the smash test.

I load my ammo on a Dillon 550 and seat...

I've successfully loaded a variety of powder coated calibers, but I'm hitting the wall with 10mm.

I'm using a Lyman 175 gr. bullet with WW alloy, and I've used Harbor Freight red and Eastwood...

He is a collector which is why he has "collected" four of these very uncommon rifles. Plus, he is just one rifle away from having four complete sets of the Marlin .41 Mag rifles in S, FG, CCL, and...

Mine will be here first thing next week, and I can't wait to get my hands on it. After watching the Marlin .41s skyrocket in price, I'm more than happy to drop $800 on a lever gun in .41 Magnum. Add...

How can you top 41M41 for a serial number? You can't. And this isn't even a big deal for him. He has four of the uber rare trapper model Marlin .41 Mags. Here are three of them...

A good friend of mine, who happens to be the biggest collector of .41 Mags I know, just scored this particular Henry Big Boy in .41 Magnum. Jealous? Sure. Surprised? Nope.

My second attempt, with 158 gr bullets, turned out real nice with two coats. Here they are on top of 12.8 gr. of AA#9. Accuracy was what I was wanting, and I had zero leading. When I finished...

Having no clue what I'm doing I bought some HF red, a used $6 toaster oven from the Goodwill, and some black airsoft pellets from Walmart. I did the shake and bake method in a No. 5 marked plastic...

Thanks for the suggestions. I'll get the lead off of it and try the scrubbing and heat cycles and give it another go. It was disappointing to say the least, but I put the H&G on the hotplate and...

Having never owned a brass mold much less one with pins I read up on the none ending discussions about the best way to prep a brass mold. I went with the less is more side of the argument and bathed...

My wife just told me mine arrived. Can't wait to get home.

Paid! Thanks.

Please include me. One .462" mold with extra blank pins, plus a set of handles if they are in stock.

thanks

PM sent for a die.

I need handles in a bad way. PM inbound.



Disregard the inbound PM, because it won't go through. I sent an email which I hope worked. If not, do you have any Lyman four cavity handles in...

The only thing standing between me and the opportunity to cast my very first bullet is a lack of Lyman four cavity handles. And they are.....you guessed right....on backorder. But they did manage to...
