Keep checking other forum classifieds. Not too long ago a guy by the name of brassman had a few hundred for sale on the 24hourcampfire. I bought a bunch while when I could since I was down to...

I know a lot of folks put down Redding's dual ring sizer because of cost, but when I started out reloading for the .45 Colt, that is what I bought right out of the gate. I have never regretted that...

I would try 8.5 grs of Unique under a .455 Keith for starters.

Yep. Poured water out my shotgun more than a few times and went back to killing.

I would give S&W a call before I sent out the cylinder for throat work. Customer service actually answers the phone......

As a rule of thumb, most all the 25's with pinned and recessed barrels will have throats that exceed .452. Post 1980 guns that are not P&R should be .452. The post 1980 25-5 guns with a serial...

I have used a dab of Johnson's Paste wax with LLA. Put it into a tumble container, hit it with a heat gun on low. When it starts to liquefy you are ready to tumble. Dries within a couple of hours...

I guess I missed something after my reply?

Sir, don't confuse religion with the teachings of our Lord.

Yep. Sure have and continue to read scripture every day. Never owned a bible until I was 50 years old. It stayed dusty for a while and now I can't go a day without reading the inspired word of...

If you use the expander in a separate step from resizing, you stand a way less chance of a crooked neck. When using the expander on the down stroke, the neck is not supported. A safer bet is to...

I think that is something to ask the maker. You can only go so "thin" depending on the bark configuration and how deep it is.

Elk panels do not have deep or gnarly bark so they can come close...

I personally do not care for Elk and much prefer Sambar. Sambar is harder to get and may be a bit more price wise, but you will never regret getting them. These are so comfortable because of the...

Thanks!

If you are swaging down your bullets when seating, and not wanting to do that, you can try a harder BHN. A neck expansion plug a couple of thousandths under bullet diameter will be helpful. ...

Got mine yesterday and really like it. Checked it out with pin gauges (those are only 3 digits) and it was on the money. I really like the ratcheting feature. Very smooth operation. Sure, there...

This is what I bought after doing a lot of looking:

Thanks all for the great input!

I ordered this one. Thanks all.

I have calipers for the not very precise stuff. Not looking for digital. Bullet diameter etc. measurements

Are these inexpensive Lyman micrometers any good or should I look on ebay for a used higher quality tool? I am a little leery of buying a worn out ***. Thanks.

...

Any such thing as excessive lube causing accuracy to deteriorate?

I would try using Ramshot TAC instead of 2400 and compare that velocity with 2400.

Guys, I can't thank you enough for trying to help me out. This is a fantastic community of gun folks and I am really happy I found this place.

I am trying to load for my oversized throats that...

Thanks for all the help guys. Still looking
