It’s something like bhn of 5 vs 11, which probably was his point. He’s saying something that hard can still fill the grooves. I have pure and 20:1 lead that I can experiment with, but I prob should...

You have a good point. I've seen the kinds of grease grooves black powder cowboy shooters use for their lever actions. Those have short barrels and the grooves are massive! This point may make the...

Looking for a 50-70 die set. Let me know what you have, thanks!

Not sure why your message didn't show up on my email alert. Was hoping to get a seater with a taper crimp but that may not even be a thing...
thanks for the heads up!

interesting vid with cross patching.
Never seen a ML with a gigantic barrel like that!

Is it embedded in the article on reloading the 45-90?

perhaps this is a topic for another forum post, but would breech seating require special kind of throat? If there's a good and easy to understand post somewhere, I'd like to study up!
