In the current climate, I would think long and hard before unloading a decent model 10 or 64. Try to add rather than subtract from your armory! There are a lot of 15s and 67s in the world.

No one seems to be selling G21 conversion barrels for 10mm anymore. Anybody know what’s going on there? I have LW 9mm conversions for my G23 and G27 and have been very happy with both, but no joy for...
I have had a lot of success with that Lee 175 in my tens. Try powder coating! Dry tumble is where to start and probably finish for easy and good results. Look up the process described in the “how to”...
OK I gotta butt in here.
I don’t know from BFR’s and I think I’m too old for a .45-70, but one time about 30 years ago I bought the Mrs. a trolling motor for Christmas because she didn’t like...
Dowright,
Can you share or direct me to your powder coating process for .223 boolits that you are happy with? I have experimented a little with cast .223s and conventional lube and not happy with...
The 10 mm is one of my favorite cartridges. In my opinion you can consider the 10mm a narrower, longer 200 gr .45 acp, so any platform you could shoot a 200 grain .45 acp in would be appropriate for...

I’ d like to see that together when you get her done.
My favorite is also the MP 503 clone. I also have the Lyman 429-421 but like the HP capability of the MP mold.
How do you like that Uberti? I have been thinking about one of those.

I wasn’t fond of Applebee’s before I read this post!
Hmm I never thought about the dies. I remember hearing about converting the 9mm cylinder of a .357/9mm Blackhawk to .357 B&D. I have one of those from about 1973 that I thought about getting...
Need to get some BE-86! That Lee 401-175 is a great bullet. Easy to cast and just a good all around design. I load those with Blue Dot for the 10mm just to watch the fireball!
Mine was a Winchester model 37 single shot 12 gauge. My Dad let me shoot it in the wood lot at the back of our farm. I was 7 years old. I was a big 7 year old but I remember it being quite...

Thought about starting a new thread, but there’s so much good stuff in this one thought better to keep it going.
I was following this rerun gb a couple of years ago but never committed back then....

I think I’ll believe it when I see it, but if this really does happen they will sell out of these as fast as they can shovel them out the door. Much like what happened to the Garands, Winchester...

Smoke I may have seen this before, but how are you PCing your 223 boolits? I'm thinking about trying the punched silicone mat/HF gun method. I have a time handling those tiny little devils.
I have had the problem you describe. I decided that it was light loads/light crimp like others, but have another idea. I had an issue once with some 38 specials that were barely getting out of the...

Fantastic! I'm shopping for baking sheets soon.
I need more information to do this. Are we in a survival situation? Am I concerned about resale value? Am I limited by government authorities?
No matter what, my last one is three more wishes!

I liked it til I got upstairs. Now I want to move there!
I used Lee molds for many years with complete satisfaction and wouldn't hesitate to buy another for a boolit I needed. I purchased a couple of Lyman's and a Saeco and was very impressed. Then I...

Make sure you mold is hot. I use a hot plate set at about medium to preheat.
