It isn't in my Lyman Cast bullet book.

I have a Greek sporterized rifle I shoot. I found long ago that it is simple to make from 220 Swift brass. The rifle isn't bothered by the semi-rim. All you have to do is size it back and trim.

My major problem with the PPM is the cheesy, bendable stand. I screwed mine into a Lyman stand I had - screwing up the plastic threads when I did it - and am much happier with it. I'm going to have...

Bought a Chinese Tokarev pistol one time that did the same thing. By the time we got the trigger to where it wouldn't offend it weighed about 10 pounds pull and I got rid of it.
Were you shooting...

I have one that I used when in transit. Box is drilled to accept press. Box was not "with" the press but was an extra item you could buy. Currently has a spotting scope in it. Not much on adding...

If I remember correctly Dixie had qt one time some parts for them.

Amen, and Semper Fi to all!

If you need it Frank DeHaas's book "Single Shot Rifles" has a good section on the 44 1/2. I have a copy. I have a Ballard that was relined with a 22 liner by CC Johnson. It's a tack driver. What...

Won't there be bolt work involved? The 35 rem is a 30-06 head size and the Carcano smaller. The 6.5 Carcano is basically the same cartridge as the 6.5 Mannlicher-Schoneaur (sp) which is my...

I bought one new when they first came out. Jammed with any ammo or either of the two springs that came with it - mine was threaded for a suppressor.
Just read an article in a magazine that said the...

I don't know about the nub - perhaps a blob of silver solder - but I have several feet of either a clock or timer spring I keep around for similar projects. If you want some send me an address and...

Annealing can be tricky. If you go too hot you get soft brass and a lot of what you describe can happen. Try without annealing. Lube the case body like normal and put a minimum amount on the...

John Barsness did an article in Handloader magazine some time ago and came to the conclusion that the 303 Sav has identical capacity to the 30-30 and therefore loads can be the same. Gives one a lot...

Ross Seyfried wrote in a Rifle article that in his experience small amounts of dacron may cause chamber ringing. He said never use less than 8 or 9 grains. I ringed a 32-30 chamber using a cork...

I have one and bodys for several calibers. I like the system. The deluxe chamfers inside and out at one time. They have a narrow range of adjustment. If you are doing a short case (300 blackout...

I've wanted a Walther GSP since I was a kid and saw ads for them. I ran into one at a local pawn shop and it wandered home with me. This is the first one I've actually seen It's in 22lr though you...

There are two older indexes that end about 1990 or thereabouts. I have both. PM me what you are looking for and I can send you the old references. I have every issue of both Handloader and Rifle.

If someone has used it in cartridge cases I'd like a report. Except for Pyrodex I've had real trouble with the other substitutes seriously corroding the brass cases. I'd appreciarte a PM on your...

Frank De Haas's book "Single Shot Rifles" would be an excellent source on both the Stevens 44 and 44 1/2.

I just had a trigger job done on both a 1911 and a Smith&Wesson K-38 by Buddy Glass in Dickinson. Both jobs are an example of fine work and the price was right. He is across from the post office in...

Check out Single Shot Rifles by Frank DeHaas. I think I still have a copy - if you can't find a copy locally PM me and if I still have it (didn't find it where it should be) I'll make a copy and...

You didn't mention trimming to length. I have a commercial Blackout that will not fire some loads that are specified length. I have to trim a few thousandth's under the max recommended length.

If you can find another die try it. That may be the problem. I'll send you mine if you want to try it.
If so send me a pm.

The 7.7s had the airplane sights and should have holes in the rear sight for the swing out pieces. Like wise they had a monopod wire on the front end which would account for a likely hole in the...
