Thanks again. I am going to play with it later in the week ,that is if it will stop raining , and work on some light loads. The only bullets I have right now are the 200 grain round nose .

thanks , Tom

I recently found a Smith Victory model chambered for the 38-200 British loading of the 38 S&W. It is very good shape with an excellent bore. I have a borrowed mold that casts a replica of the 200...

Yes. It's a 26 inch octagon bbl. Found it in a pawn shop a couple of years ago. It was in a pile of guns that were not working and had been pulled. They sold it to me for $150 . I took it home and...

I requested that he use the original bore diameter of .38 . I size my bullets to .380 and it seems to be a good fit. I believe the bore worked out to be .379 when it was all said and done. He did...

I am thinking about buying a new mold for my 1907 94 38-55 . I have been using an old Ideal single cavity mold that cast a 250 grain flatnose boolit. I get excellent accuracy with it , around two to...

Typed a 4 instead of a 5. My mistake. Thanks PS paul. I will do just that. Is this applicable for a Blackhawk Ruger 45 also ?

I have a Colt SAA revolver , third gen. I am about to start casting 250 grain slugs for it and am not sure what Boolit sizer die to use. From what I have been reading, older guns use .454 size to...

Wow, you are right about that Marlin site. Thanks for the info. I have a powder coat rig, but I have never used it. I might try that too. Thanks.

Just picked up a very clean Rem 25 in 25-20. The bore is slightly dark, with very strong rifling. I have a 25R all ready, same cal. , so I have dies and one mold. The carbine was never real...

Thanks Bruce. Didn't know that. I will call them Monday. I also started off with 9 mm luger data. Just looking for favorite loads. Thanks

Thanks for the info. Right about loading info being scarce. I have been using 9mm luger data so far. The Star is a pretty strong pistol from what I have gathered. The Astras are older and weaker....

Anyone here load cast boolits for their 9mm Largo ? I have a Star and two Astra 400's. I would like to hear of any good medium loads with a 125 grain cast round nose. I have a Saeco mold for that...

PM sent on my Mod 53 takedown to add to your database. Hope it helps.

I'm going to try it with and without the gas check then. Maybe that will point me in the right direction.

My mold is a gas check design. Will it hurt to not use the gas check, or should I just stick it on the bottom?

Thanks for all the suggestions. I will work through them until I get the results I want. I am sizing my bullets to .257 because that is the only sizing die I located. I'm looking for a .258 to try...

I've been shooting some Rem 7 1/2 primers that were under water for almost three weeks. They shot half inch groups in my 222, with no duds. All I did was let them dry out for a couple of months. ...

I'll try it if I can find some HP38. Thanks.

I have recently purchased a Rem 25R carbine in 25-20. I'm having a little trouble getting it to group like I want it to. I'm casting a 72 grain boolit (supposed to be 65 but it isn't) gas check...
