Hey Robert,
Have you got these underway yet? If you want to go halves in freight let me know as I could do with a couple of boxes of 30's & maybe some 22's?
We can divvy up out at the Tok Club...

Hi Old Salt,
I have always used direct heat on a gas ring. I always end up with brown coloured Felix lube even if I have put in a colour!! Reason; every batch has caught on fire when the wax has...

460 x RCBS 165gr 30 cal boolits.
I wish there was a group buy on a 5-banger on this boolit.

Hi Shooter,
I have had a 955 since they first came out. That must have been about 1996'ish.
I have replaced the bearings twice in that time and it is my go to reel with a Penn Slammer rod anytime I...

Hi Powderpacker,
My two BF's both sport IWGS sights. These are still available from RPM from Karl Rock, son of the late Jim Rock. Prices are very reasonable. Peter

Yip Floyd. That clobber would be "de rigeur" for most restaurants in New Zealand. Some would consider it a bit over dressed for walking the hills however. But then again, I did see some "toff" in...

Shameless Bump.
I only see some three holers on the web-site for sale.
I need two of the 5 bangers for me and a mate.
Hope some are on the agenda soon??

My load for IHMSA in the strong FA 357 revolver is the RCBS 200gr boolit with 16.3gr ADI2205 (4227). Usual warnings apply.....OK in my gun but may not be in yours.

Hello Alan,

Hi Swede,
If there are any molds not claimed / paid for / or people backed out, my buddy would be interested in a 5 banger ( or smaller) for his new Seville 375 Supermag.

Resurecting this old thread. I am getting a new barrel made in 30BR specifically to shoot the NOE 155gr boolit. So where do I seat the boolit to make the dummy round for the gunsmith to cut the...

Starline for all pistol straight walled cases and Lapua for 7BR. Winchester Hornet brass is the pits. Remington brass OK for all others if I cant get Lapua.

Hi Wayne,
I was thinking the same thing. I am shooting the RCBS version sub-sonic in the 32Mag so a couple of PB would have been a good idea.

Hi Al,
Please advise me if you don't see this payment within 24 hours as I have tried with Paypal again. All looks good at this end, however, it did last time also! Peter
