For any of you that might be in the Connecticut area there are 3 boat keels on Goverment Liquidations web site up for auction. Approximate weight 3700 lbs. too far for me to even consider. I think...

Same question I posted a few days ago. I sorted everything, did not see anything that looked like zinc while smelting. I just want to be double dog sure before blending my hard scavenged lead into...

I have been scrounging up lead since last December and now have around 700lbs. I have smelted it down as I got it and have several small batches that I am wanting to blend together to have larger...

I built a mold oven when I got my first mold. It is big enough for my larger molds, I guess it's possible that this small 2 cavity 9mm mold may not be getting up to temp in the oven. I have cast...

I do have a regular lead pot thermometer so I am reasonably sure of the temp. I didn't mention the name of the mold because they are a site sponsor and the other molds I bought from them have not had...

I have been having some problems getting good boolits from a 9mm mold. This is my fifth mold and I have been able to cast and shoot good boolits from my other molds. This mold was starting to get the...

This forum is much better than a magazine anyway. Can't ask a magazine a question and get 20 replys in a day. Now if we just had the pretty girls from the ads.:bigsmyl2:

Who has the cheapest shipping if you only need 1 small item like a crimp die?

I picked <4999 but didn't consider the times I take my kids and grand kids shooting. We have burned thru 1500 22lr and 2 or 3 hundred .223 and at least a few hundred 45acp and 9mm in a single outing....

I thought I was beginning to figure this stuff out but am still having a few problems.

Most of my casting has been in small amounts to test before I made lots of boolits that just had to be...

Testing loads just isn't as easy as it once was. Since they closed the range that was only five miles from work the nearest range is 40 miles away. Didn't used to mind 1/2 a dozen trips working up...

Now that I have a couple of different lead sources (coww, pure lead, range lead and a 50/50 mix, magnum bird shot) to cast from I am curious on just how soft a bullet I can shoot from my 9mm.

My...

Many American shooters are familiar with Simo Hayha's records. I have "VALKOINEN KOULEMA" painted on my Bow case, don't know if it's right but that's the translation my computer gave me for the...

Norway is a great place, especially the western and northern regions, if it wasn't for the Government there would absolutely be no better place to live.[/QUOTE]

I'm afraid that is true in way too...

Another question for Humbo. I don't know much about the Kingdom of Norway but do you have a huntable population of Muskox? What little I have read Norway sounds like an awesome place to live.

Newton, I've been wanting to hunt that area but knees are in pretty bad shape anymore. Is there ATV access in that area?

Put me down for a RG4 please.

I noticed this was first posted on the first of April. Do the folks in Norway have the same nasty habit of yanking the chain of others on April fools day? If your not kidding all that tin must be...

oops. sorry missed the 2nd page I didn't know you already found your problem. My favorite was the Condors eating it.

Interesting experiment, try it a few more times and post your results. It has to be somewhere it didn't disappear. My best guess is if you have double checked your math would be to try calibrating...

I use a turkey cooker and a cast iron pot. I did however have to build a wind shield since I smelt outside. I simply cut a piece of sheet metal long enough to go around the pot with about a 1/2 inch...

I store them in wooden ammo crates. I staple a piece of paper to the crate with written info like date and type of lead smelted and any other important info, the the ingots in the crate only have to...

Well I completed melting the first 150lb. bucket of the 3 I bought at 55 cents per pound. Each 150lb. bucket was $82.50 they had scales and filled the first 2 buckets to an even 150lb. the last...

Wondered that myself. I doubt he was paying as much as I was, but I'm going to keep checking with this guy from time to time. Looked like he was cleaning house, everything had been wrapped for...

I got to the shop this morning at 0900 and his buyer was there loading everything up with a forklift. I panicked and bought 3 buckets full that totaled just shy of 450 lb. I also bought 100 lb of...
