So the story behind this deer started as soon as I walked out my front door( 2nd day of the season.) and sideways rain and 40 mph winds hit me. My usual spot I go to is on the other side of Siskiyou...

Western Oregon Blacktail durning a special draw muzzleloader season. Lee 50 cal 320 gr real bullet did the job.
Bought lead from him and it was quick and simple buy. I will buy from him in the future.

Is roof flashing lead soft enough for R.E.A.L. Bullets. My post kinda got taken over by guys talking about round balls-I'm not shooting round balls.

Fromthe Woods- I would email some of the commercial casters and see if its possible to get an oversized bullet or if they offer anything in a hollowbase design. Or you might try posting a want ad...

I have cast that bullet before- that shoot good in both my contender and marlin-I like the ranch dog bullets better with the flat nose. but with the trapdoor figured I would use that bullet. I dont...

I have been able to pick out the FE weights, since they are marked and they dont melt in my pot. Lee 420 is the pot I'm using. How do I tell the difference in zinc and lead if not marked. Will zinc...

Here in OR, cant use sabots or jacketed bullets for muzzleloader hunts-I got a lee real mold that drops a 320 grn bullet. it shoots pretty good in my traditions evolution- took a nice 3x3 blacktail...

I use jacketed bullets in my 4 garands(one of each manufacturer)- but have had good luck with varget powder and ramshot biggame. You might want to check out a hornady loading manual as they have a...

I finally found the correct stock for my 1884 trapdoor springfield cadet model. I plan to load some lee 405 HB. I normally cast with clip on ww's. should I add some stick on ww to make a softer...
Yep I shoot 28.5 grn of 5744 or 35.5 grns of re7 w/ the 365 rd in the contender. both loads are under 28k pressure. The 430 grn loads rt now are to find a load in my marlin guide gun.
My 45-70 1895 gg and contender carbine liked the rd 365 so much- I got the 425 mold with half plain base and half gc. The bullet with gc and lubed weighs around 439 grns. I loaded up a couple of...

Southern Oregon is to close to California- all the places around here have been using steel/zinc weights for a couple of years, the last 5 gallen bucket I was able to buy was a lil over half of zinc...
