I de prime before putting in the stainless pin tumbler. If they are really dirty, I run them in walnut shell before de priming, then run with pins. I hate cleaning primer pockets and this eliminates...

I use the RCBS bench primer. It has never failed.A little more money, but no headaches. Sometimes a warranty is not a good substitute for quality. I like a lot of things that Lee makes that no one...

My first setup was to mount on a 3/8ths plate mounted to the bench that has several sets of threaded holes for different tools. I now have a dillon xl mounted there permanently so have a 2" square...

Whatever brand, it looks to be pretty solid.

Not free, or from a dumpster, but got a 650 for $50 about a year ago. It looks real nice next to my 750.

I usually dispose of it about 4 or 5 grains at a time.

30-06 to 8 x 57 conversion is very easy, just have a lot of trimming. I start on the band saw. A drill press setup with a collet holder and counter bore is what I use on my milling machine. (that's...

I just found a can full of wet and REALLY dark brass under my bench. Wanted to see if I could save it. I normally run a little over a teaspoon of citric acid and the same amount of Armorall in about...

Just finished mine a couple of weeks ago. Took it to the range this week and shoots very well. Its' amazing how close it resembles yours including the color and grain. Hope yours shoots as well as...

I'll be 70 in a couple of months, but still race a Top Fuel Drag bike. May be my last year or two, but not ready to give up just yet. Still in reasonably good health, but will have to put someone...

We made marmalade last year with kumquats, but it has long since disappeared.

My usual is when the phone rings. It's not that I don't remember where I put it, but that I don't realize I put it down. There is a black hole in my shop floor somewhere. Like all good scientists, I...

I use Armorall Wash & Wax with citric acid. That is the active ingredient in Lemishine and is a lot cheaper. I got 2 pounds from Amazon for about 10 bucks. Armoral comes from local auto parts store.

I loaned someone my Lee hand primer and they did me a favor by NOT returning it. I've been using an RCBS auto bench primer for anything I don't put in the Dillons. Even then, I sometimes still use...

I try to set tight on a go gauge.

I've run into several.Most of them have had a red sealer around the primer. Have broken several primer pins on them, but a flash light will usually let you see them after cleaning with pins.

I just boiled mine twice, but wanted to just re-lube instead of powder coat. Old lube was coming off because it was old and had gotten hot.

I use a 750 with a case feeder. I really like it. I have several presses and what works best for you will depend on how many rounds you load of a given type at a time. I load 8 or 10 different setups...

Sounds like you need a lead magnet.

Sounds like you have two keepers!!!!!!!!!!!!!!:bigsmyl2:

I just ordered a .50 cal flintlock kit and am looking for suggestions for a round ball mold. It seems to me that I need a .490 or a .495 mold. twist is 1 in 56 with a 44 inch barrel from Colrain. I...

Nice looking piece and good groups, too.

Been divorced twice and left a flintlock back east after moving west. Just ordered a new kit today. Been married to a great gal now for 43 years. She has no problem as she has some of her own.

Good article. Just ordered a kit today. Just a few weeks away, though. It will be something new for me.

Never seen anything like it, but I wonder if it could have been from black powder days?
