I'll find the load that each gun likes best with in it's safety limitations if I have more than one that fires the same round. Then I will use different colored labels to indicate what it...

Was able to get out and do a little playing today. Love this Boolit!!! I'm now able to see the full potential of my Kiwi addition Victory Smith. I found my best results using 2.7gr of Unique with an...

The only other thing that I have that is in the 200gr size range is a C329-209-R1 that gives me excellent results in my Mauser over 16.5gr of 2400. Perhaps I'll try that load first. :veryconfu

I'm currently looking for any source of brass for my T44. I've heard mention in the past of using modified .270 brass but haven't tried yet. Other than annealing and sizing / trimming is there...
Nope I seriously couldn't find anything in a search which I thought was odd. And I'm being lazy. It's way below zero here, and I don't want to take the time to work up a load the normal way. So I'm...
I've tried to do a such but came up dry.
I've got the use of a Coast to Coast bolt action 30-30 to play with. I'll be using a Lee C308 150FN boolit, with WLR Primers. Could anyone please clue me...

Agreed. In my loading practices I've found that if I flair the neck enough to allow the gas check to enter half way up it's just right.

I've been considering finally getting a set of dies for my K-31. Most manufactures have a set, wile Hornady has two. One of which is listed specifically for the K-31 and of course comes at a high...

My A3 shoots Match Kings like that. 2" to 3" @ 100, and 1.25" @ 300.
Yet the same rifle will shoot moa with a C312-185-1R to 200yrds.
So that makes cast far better than the spendy stuff untill...

I just use the FL size die from my RCBS die set to do the neck sizing with. It is backed up of the shell holder .056". This will size all but the bottom of the neck and none of the body. I also like...

That's just the opposite for me. My wife only gets cranky if I do any "trolling" without her. Did you find anything worth peecking at? :shock:

I use 7.62x54r.net as a common reference for anything MN. This is what they have to say about the original round.

I don't see any reason that it wouldn't stabilize. I thought about getting an adapter for a wile but just went with putting an RCBS .32-98 SWC over 8gr of 2400 for my '03A3. Same boolit that I use...

I've drug that rifle thew every piece of cr*p land that MN has to offer. It's my go to close quarters rifle when the brush gets real thick. My grandpa was the type of man that when he gave you a...

I've got what I believe to be a 91/38 Cav. Carbine that was produced in 1940. The finish is beginning to get a little worn from use (mine). It belonged to my grandpa, and was my first "real rifle"....

I personally think all the hype of lead hazards is a load of cr*p. I cast in the basement, without proper ventilation. I eat and drink while both casting and smelting, without washing my hands. I...

I'm good for 12K+ for rifle, 6K+ for hand gun, and 6K+ of .22rf if you want to count those too.
