That was my plan once I had enough posts to be allowed to make a WTT or WTB post. As a new member you're not allowed to do that though. Fortunately a moderator on here saw my thread and private...

I didn't notice any tight spots, but I was also using a pretty crude method(too soft of a wooden dowel and a big *** hammer lol.I didnt push the bullet all the way through the muzzle either, just...

Yep this makes complete sense to me. From what I understand the only reason to find a size that "fits" is so you can use harder bullets to avoid gas cutting. I've heard mixed things on the next part,...

Just got back from the range today and the jacketed bullets shot very accurately so I'm pretty confident the other bullets I tested were either too small or too hard or both. I've pretty much given...

Plinking mostly, but eventually hunting as well if I ever pull a unit with thick brush. I want an fps range around 1200-1500 for hunting(whatever I can max out at using unique powder), but besides...

Exactly! I get that I can just learn to judge bullets and get the "feel" of it, but why not accelerate that learning with a simple tool plus allow some useful documentation. I can vary my time...

What's the max temperature I'd need the thermometer to be able to go up to? I know the lead Temps can be past 700 but I've seen people suggest mold Temps from 280 to 400's

While doing some research I came across the NOE Mold Thermometer. It looks like this has been discontinued. Is there another standard product that people use? Or any suggested devices? I'm looking to...

I ordered 1000 0.431 jsp bullets so I'll give those a try for now. I'd like to start casting my own, but I'd prefer to try some 0.433 and 0.434 bullets first to see how they work first before...

Thanks I read something about that. I loosened the front cap and only snugged the screws this time rather than cranking them down. I also ordered a rail so I can throw a 4x scope on to take the...

Thanks for the info. I just ordered 1000 0.433 bullets. They're a bhn of 12, but I'm only using unique powder so it should be under 1500fps. If these don't work out well I'll either use them in the...

I did a little testing that may or may not have practical meaning. I took some empty cases and flared the rim out to see how much I could flare it out and still be able to chamber. I managed to flare...

I'm not currently able to cast my own. I'm going to try ordering some .433 from Missouri Bullet Company. I'm going to order 240gr rnfp with a bhn of 12. I'll have to order 1000 so hopefully they...

Based on that I'm going to need a 0.434 bullet then... Measuring the inside of fired cases I'm getting around 0.4335-0.434". I can't find anywhere to get bullets that size. In fact after going back...

I'm shooting in a rifle not a revolver, although I will shoot these in my revolver too assuming it chambers. 0.432 has no problem chambering in my revolver so hopefully 0.433 does as well if I end up...

This is a new marlin so it does have ballard rifling although the rifling still looks pretty shallow. I'm out of bullets now though so I need to order more and I'd prefer to order in bulk. I suppose...

Hello, I was wondering if .001 over groove is a really hard minimum bullet size or if it just needs to be bigger than the grooves and .001 is just the standard amount. The reason I ask is I have a...
