Years ago we picked up about 30lbs. of .22 slugs.
After a few days of drying we smelted them.
A bunch would not melt.....not all are lead.
Just my $.02 worth.

Mr. Cat,
I have missed out on your group buys so far......I was absent..whatever that day.
But in the future what kind of payment do you prefer?
One of these days I won't be tardy.
Didn't know we...

Have shot the .30 carbine in the Ruger. You are all right......it's the loudest sob Iv'e ever shot but the .32 mag is not far behind. The .30 Herrett with W296 is not far behind either. All of them...

It costs 60 bucks in Washington to get a CCW if you pass the background check.
Still can't take a gun into a bar.
But still crims still can I guess.

You are a dead man unless that ring gets real by the25th.
Don't let your friends use your chrony.
It gets expensive.

Wish I was young again.......didn't shoot flying targets worth beans, but wish I was young again and could still try.

I believe old Elmer Keith got alot of his tin from old toothpaste tubes.
Read that in in Six Guns or Hell I Was There. Or maybe I've gone over the edge.

Topper,
Have you tried IMR 4198 in your .30 HERRETT?
That and AA2015 have been the best for me.
Case life is much better also.
I have to vote for the chrony.
It works for what I want.
And when not if I blow it up I'm only out $100

Does anyone know if Lee will catalog any of these molds? I want about all of the pistols molds but not just yet.
Thanks Dan

After 16 years she doesn't know one gun from the other. The trick is not to keep them together. The lady can count.

No one has mentioned the model 3 HERTERS press. Got me started in 1965 and still going strong.

Just as dirty as the old stuff, and just as good too.

Have not seen the .30 Herrett mentioned. The neck is long enough for a 150 gr. bullet and you can't get more than 27 grs of 4198 in it.

Am surpised that the stainless caliper that Midway sells was not mentioned.
Mine reads right with my Sterret 1" micrometer and the Midway unit cost about $20.00 or so 10 years ago. And it keeps on...
