He's great to deal with. Great products.

When I was a kid I recall a Standard ad in the AR from Numrich of the day. A Standard arms kit needing only to be deburred to be assembled. Right!

As a 38 Special: I swap between a K38 based Clark Light Revolver, 6", 19-5 and a 586 no dash. I did take out my 1953 vintage Combat Masterpiece to our little match last Wednesday. The gun was...

I'm trying to play catch up on making usable alloy. The range scrap from our pistol range has a high proportion of hard commercial cast bullets. That plus the antimony in bullet cores make for a...

Today,I finished up a the first short run of 35863 double ended wadcutters made from range scrap. The older Lyman four cavity mold came from an estate sale. I set up the Star sizer to lube one grove....

The Star Sizer is a wonderment. As to the way it works there is little if any similarity to a Lyman type lube-sizer. This may be a cop out but I'd suggest Googling the Star. That's the way I went...

I had gotten my rifle second hand. It is a long range hunting and target model. I don't have a Shiloh to compare. My rifle shows good fit and finish. My rifle was made in the time where Badger...

One of the club old timers had passed. His estate went up for sale. There were two Star's in the estate. I paid $50.00 for one sizer with tool and two dies. The press was in nice shape. I was a...

I use a Lyman 45 for my BP rifle bullets. Installing sizing dies and top punch really are features I miss in the 450's and 4500's. I had to do the pot with boiling water to get the fossilized lube...

I am working up to reloading 9.3x57s for a Swedish Mauser from 8mm brass. Where I'm at is to stop and start all over again. Opening the 8mm brass was easy with a set of Hornady dies. The tapered...

Making these cases is a trip based on my experience making one case. A friend is one of these people who show up with all sorts of wild and crazy stuff. This was many years ago. He came in with a...

Are those scales also sold marked Ohaus. I have used a the similar Ohaus scale for over thirty years. The guru's will tell you this scales needs calibrating every few years. I have not gotten around...

Shell holder adapter: I have bought an adapter from Lyman for the current style shell holder. My Tru-line Jr.press is not mounted but is complete. The real killer is to figure out from the numbers on...

Lachmiller was bought by RCBS many years ago.

Personal Feelings and Experience: I got my Co-Ax back in the Bonanza days. That's probably in the late 1970's. To me, no press is going to overcome brass that is not consistent. For example, using...

I wanted a Master Caster. I have many four cavity molds of various makes plus a few Lee six cavity molds. I just wanted Master Caster. I'm setting here looking at the first bullet I cast on the...

Might try CH-4D. These folks list for 11.7x56R.

If I recall these rifles were modified and the cartridge is 11.7x56R. I have formed cases from 45-70 and used the Lee mould for the hollow base bullet. My barrel was .464 and the Lee bullet worked...

Right on RCBS tapered expander balls! I have these expander balls in 338 Federal and 35 Whelen dies. Makes these cases with good results and no loss of brass.

Chrony will exchange damage units at a reduced price. It is also possible to buy outright a unit that replaces the old one sans bullet holes. I know this the hard way. The real demon in the mix is...

Does Lyman still sell the shell holder adapter for the TLJr.? I was able to order on these adapters some years back. Can 310 dies be used in this press with a little juggling? I have two of the...

A friend have given me a Kel-Tec .380. I was exploring this little handgun when the ejector fell out. I looked all over and under etc. etc. No ejector. Weeks later what should turn up but this...

I got lucky on the Number One's. I am totally convinced each #1 is a law unto itself. My current project is to get the #1A 30-06 running with cast bullets. Next will be the 257 Roberts. The Rhinos...

I had bought several hundred 45-70 cases from Starline some years back before most prices went through the roof. I am not in the place to be buying forming dies and had to make do with the sizing...

Up date: Trimmed my newly formed cases to trim to maximum length in the Lyman loading manual-2.105. Trimming was not an option as the chamber would not tolerate untrimmed cases. I did notice...
