HI-TEK I found a new use for your Aqualube today works fantastic on the sizer ring on a 12 gauge reloading press. You can really tell the difference in effort to size the steel headed cartridges

I think...

Hi I've been playing with some cast loads in 303 for my sporterized No1 Mk111 Lithgow. I have worked up a load getting me 2150fps with more than acceptable accuracy and no leading. The rifle has an...

G'day mate yep H4895 is 06H just easier to use the American names on these sites
I plan on trying some just think with the fast twist of the Carcano keeping the velocity down might be a good idea

Hi I have just received my NOE 269-163RN mold and am looking for some load ideas loading for a M41

Hi well as I'm sitting around at the moment rather bored I thought I would start a thread on Hi-Tek colours
including mixing powders and 2 different colours being used on the same Boolit just for...

I've been wondering what are people using for flux? Is there a potential problem with coating not bonding with certain fluxes?

the 270-145-FN the 270-151--RN and the 270-162-FN anyone have any experience with these...

I wonder where they found a tame one?

HI-TEK I would guess around .002" that colour is either Texas tea or black gold I swapped some of my candy apple red for it with another caster locally
I don't get leading with my normal alloy in...
