Let’s keep this near the top… I’m learning so much here, and would love for some of the more knowledgeable ones to continue this conversation.

Wish it was available to me. I’d buy 20 pounds and not look back. It’s not a problem to work up a safe load with unknown powder, you just approach the situation methodically while taking precautions.

Just head to the range with your portable press and measure and adjust your charge accordingly to the burn rate. .2-.3 on fast burning powders, .5 on the slow in those relatively large cartridges.

First off, please forgive me for stepping in on Hootmix’s post. I’ve followed and have questions that could be answered here if you guys would indulge me…

I’m about to try this adventure with my...

Thanks Guys,
There will be an RCBS #32 in with my next Midway order!
Just for the info, I'm making 6.5 Grendel brass from 7.62X39. So I just break out my PPC shell holder ( a 7.62X39 derivative )...

Hey guys,
Was wondering, what shell holder are you using for 7.63X39 cases? The rims on the cases I have are way too thick for an RCBS #6. Is there one made just for these thick rimmed cases?...

Got an ingot from a friend and hope it's tin / antimony mix I cand make bullets from. Or if it's desireable, I'll sale it.
It's a five segmented ingot that has a single letter on each segment, that...

Total weight is 4.5 LB... Can't scratch it with my thumb nail. I'm hoping it is a high tin alloy I can use to make boolits!

I had this up a couple of days ago but didn't get a decent response, so I changed the title and will try it a gain...

A friend gave me an ingot that I thought I might use for casting, but I don't...

I had dealings with Joe on occasion, and followed his reports on his cancer. I found him to be fair, kind, and helpful. It's my intentions to meet him at that range in Heaven, someday. hope you all...

I'm not stopping the prayer that your healing be complete.
Thanks for the up-date Joe

It is a ****-shoot! I've purchased a lot of 9MM brass on here and other sites. I shoot it in a Glock with a custom barrel and usually leave it where it falls. Some people pick it up, and RE-use it...

I think Rick is on the right trail... Kinda confirms what I've suspected. I'll do a search for that feller, and see what he does about it.
Thanks guys,
Wayne

Hey guys,
I've got a Marlin 1894 in .44 Mag. That has just quit, feeding. The elevator won't go all the way up, and so the cartridge hangs on the breech face.
Do I need to replace the elevator,...

The bottom line is... If it's a substantial amount, The buyer should request insurance. I've been buying and selling some over the past two years or so, and have found that the only ones that get...

Heck just give em to me ...I use em for my benchrest rifles in 6MM PPC

Now that's what I call response!!! You guys are the very reason this site is the best! The amount of knowledge, experience, and willingness to share, just boggles my mind! I suspected what you...

Hey Guys,
I would like to know how much velocity do I need with a 31141 from a 30-30 to kill a 150 pound whitetail deer? I've read much but some info appears to be conflicting. Please, would a few...

I was 23 in 1983 and killed an 8PT with my Remington 700 30-06 and my reloads.
I've been hooked every since. I hunted in every season, archery, muzzleloader and rifle. Heck, if there had been an...

Hey Chuck,
How bout a 25-20! I'm thinkin an 85 grain plain based boolit at just under the speed of sound. I think you could get it there with a pinch of Trailboss and Remington 6 1/2 primers. It...

BTT

Hey Nick,
Think you would buy another if the chance came around?
Wayne

Hey Guys,
Saw an add for a Sharps rifle in 45-70 that was real reasonable, but thought I'd run it by the experts before I get too interested. The guy says he will send pics and I'm still waiting on...

I've herd the same thing, I probably won't try them in the Tikka
Wayne

If you are going to get another rifle, the Tikka T3 and T3 Lite are offered in left hand and are fairly reasonably priced. Most calibers are offered and they are plenty accurate. I have the T3 Lite...
