I have had a Lyman 4500 on backorder with Midway since mid June and they keep changing the availability date - it is out to the end of August now. They keep saying that Lyman can't deliver...

My 45 ACP brass is about half SPP and I have not had any issues reloading or firing them. Sorting them by eyesight is easy and quick and I never had any problem decapping. My SPP brass is mostly...

I picked up individual + and - pins from Production Tool Supply. They run around 2.25 each and the shipping is reasonable. If they need to backorder any, they only charge the shipping for the...

Yet another aggravation is retailers that allow backorders and ship items one at a time from a multi-item order. Shipping is bad enough but some charge a special handling fee for shipping one item...

I have a Stoeger X50 in .177. It is a hard hitter at 1200 fps (1500 with alloy) and extremely accurate out to 75 yards which is the furthest I have tested. It comes with the scope mounted and...

At age 65 it's 30.00 in North Carolina for lifetime hunting with all big game tags and fishing - both inland and coastal

Try the USPS online store - they are free and will be delivered to your door free:...

The mold to handle fit is sloppy on my new design Lee 2 cavity. I need to set the mold on a flat surface to close it. It does cast well however.

I use a small block of hardwood with a crisp edge to clean my Lee molds - they tend to lead up on the spru side in particular. I use it like a plane and it pops the little nibs right off, as well as...

I have 2 Henry's - a .22 levergun and a Big Boy in .44 mag. I would not let either of them go - they shoot great and look good in the cabinet. I have Skinner peeps on the Big Boy and they look like...

Frankfort arsenal drop out must be sprayed on from a distance of at least 100 feet to ensure that the correct amount gets on the mold

I noticed right away that the Hornady brass was shorter - at least with the Leverevolution loads - it really stands out with one beside a Winchester case.
I picked up a slip on recoil pad when I...

I currently have Lee C457-500-F, 457-450-F, 457-340-F on backorder - the first 2 will ship around 6/5 and the third around the end of August. I will get a Lee 459-500-3R this Friday and will try a...

Midsouth seems to have the same out of stock issue as the other vendors - at least Midway accepts backorders so I have a couple of molds on order from them.
As far as loads, I plan on shooting...

So far, the only available mold I have been able to find is a Lee 459-500-3R. Not my first choice by far, but it is cheap and comes with handles. It will have to do until I can get something better...

I picked up my new H&R 1871 Buffalo Classic today at Gander Mountain along with 5 boxes of 45/70 ammo in 3 loadings; 300gr Leverevolution, 325gr hollow point and 405 lead cowboy load. After a good...

The Lee works fine - just a pain to hold everything and get a reading. I made this to hold the scope.71340

Pewter picture frames at the local GoodWill store wind up costing me around .50 per pound - just need to watch out for zinc frames.

I reload several calibers in a typical setting and I like to have several Lee perfect powder measures set up to accommodate the various charges. I made a turret from an old lamp base and a...

I loved the idea of making a microscope stand for the Lee hardness tester - it is very difficult to hold steady and get a good measurement. I test hardness on the boolit nose since I use many...

I shoot Keith style SWC in my Big Boy and they cycle fine - don't need to force the lever. 725 is less than I paid for mine new - go for it.

I recently traded a 500 S+W magnum revolver (Magnum Research BFR) for a Henry Big Boy in 44 magnum with Skinner peep sights. Shoots great with cast boolits and sure is purdy with all that brass trim

I too started smelting before researching - I was waiting for molds to be delivered from Midway and wanted a head start. I have been casting sinkers for years and bad lead doesn't matter with those....

Elkins45 - hop your hand looks better than the Glock after that blowout?

Most green bar paper is made from recycled stuff - maybe that gives the better performance.
