Look for AA9, 300 MP or something slower than 2400. If you want a plinking load consider that PP is very closer to Unique, IIRC.

If you want to shoot 38's in it get the Lee 125 gr rf and load it with 5 gr BE.
Nueces, I like the idea of new grips and padded gloves. You can cut the trigger finger off or all of them just past the knuckles and have a very functional glove.

I don't know how many real bullets you will cast. I made a mini pot when I was playing with soft noses. Take a 2"x5" pipe nipple and weld a 1/2" piece of angle iron on it so that it overlaps the edge...

Learn something new all the time. Every time I have had carnitas is carnitas de chile verde, which has no oranges, coke or milk in it. It's usually done from boneless shoulder roast.
I have a 14" 30-30 bbl and like it. I can shoot 90 gr 0.313: bullets at 25 yards or 150 gr jacketed at 200 yards. I have 4 frames, one is the old style and I have not had issues with it opening. I...
