Whenever I switch lubes I don’t usually bother to clean out all the old lube- just put in the new stick and let the two-tone boolits roll. Only exception is if going from hard lube that needs heat to...

PM Buckshot, he’s a member here and hollow points moulds and does other machine work. I had him HP a mould for me several years ago- excellent workmanship and turnaround time.

JonB, come clean man! Where do we get our grubby mitts on one of those?

I have a couple hundred heavy 357 boolits that I would melt down if I knew how to recycle the gas checks. I hate to waste checks at 4 cents each

PM coming at ya

One more thought- I’ve been using a LAM for 40 years with almost no issues. The threaded collar that secures the sizing die into the sizer body can be easily cross-threaded. I recommend paying...

lar45 has great lube for a good price (lsStuff link if you scroll down to the links below).

FWIW, you might comparison shop at CMP. I’ve bought M1 parts very reasonably there in the past.

#5 .257 75 grain lot Hornady HP 100 pcs, Sierra HP 95 pcs, Speer 60 grain soft point 106 pcs, 300 pieces total $ 75 Shipped

If this is still available I will take it. PM coming

Looks like a good candidate to hollow point. I already have three 44 moulds…

[QUOTE=Texas by God;5680621]It might be similar ballisticly to the AR cartridge 25-45 Sharps- not quite 25-35 level one would think.

Another rabbit hole for me to go down.�� Way less steps to form...

I’ve been thinking the same thing. MGM has it on their chambers list but I haven’t been able to find a cartridge drawing. And would it be possible to use the same dies to load it?

Mix your beeswax with synthetic two stroke oil 3:1 by weight. That’s the recipe for Speed Green, which is pretty good stuff.

Just bought a 256 Contender barrel and have a few questions for you guys. If I got this right, y’all are sizing directly from 357 to 256 in one step? I bought all the Redding forming dies and go...

16. RCBS 32-98-SWC double cavity mold NEW $80

I’ll take this. PM coming

Dang you guys! Dropped into single shots to snoop for some chatter about 256 Winchester and this thread slammed me right between the eyes.

Jwhite, that is one beautiful rig! Looks like full bull...

$7.50 a thousand….what I paid for primers back when I started loading with a Lyman 310 tool. And take home pay was $300 for two weeks.

You were wise to question the suitability of that powder. Propellants with identification granules will have much more consistent distribution of said granules than what appears in your picture.

Awesome display item, and the powder should be fine as long as it doesn’t have that ammonia smell. I have a cardboard Hercules Green Dot one pounder that also has faded dots. Use good judgement and...

I have a container of Hercules Reloder 7 that does have colored granules. They don’t stand out like raisins in rice, but they are there. If I knew how to post pictures with IPhone I could prove it.

Posted from an IPhone? What’s the process?

My WAG is that cases are placed mouth down over the pegs, maybe so primer pockets can be inspected. Second guess is to act as drying rack for washed black powder cartridge cases.

I did the same project about five years ago. Getting my sporterized 03A3 back in uniform took some scrounging. Got a c style stock from CMP, don’t know if that’s still an option. (It was a new stock...
