The product on Amazon is the same as the Johnson liquid and works perfectly. Loaded 300+ NOE 10mm plain base with "load to function" of Unique in my Grand 10 mm. Very accurate, no leading.

GEMTECH offers a neat option on their suppressors called the "quickmount".
Two good things: 1. You can use the same can on several guns. 2. You're not wearing out threads taking cans on and off.

Came into a huge pile of 7.62x51 NATO being sold as scrap brass. Very nice annealed cases with DAG93G0368 headstamp. Primers are Berdan, lacquered and crimped.

Caldwell barrel fan appears to be discontinued and last price I found was 60 bucks.
