Hi,
I have a 6.5 Grendel 18" BCA upper I want to load and cast for. I haven't found a good inexpensive mold in .265 or .266 that isn't back ordered forever. However, I already have a Lee...

Hi,
Do not order Molds from "bulletcasting.net" website. That is not the current NOE website. I ended up ordering two molds from there that they don't have in stock, as that website is not...

Just ordered an inexpensive BCA 6.5 Grendel Type II upper. Before that I built a 6.8 APR 20" TRIAD upper. Why did I get the 6.5 when I already have the superior 6.8 you ask? I got suckered because...

Cool. I found one. It was here: https://bulletcasting.net/product-category/264-6-5mm/266-126-fn-ao3/ Kind of a pain to find. They only have the 2 cavity and 4 cavity in the GC version, and I...

I have a Charter 327 Mag Target Patriot and love it. It's super accurate. The 327 does shoot better than my Model 28-2 in 357 Mag. It's easier on you hands than 357, and more powerful in standard...

Hi,
I didn't see a thread on this. I was wondering if anyone has figured out a way to hydro-form 6.5 Grendel (or any re-formed brass for that matter) after sizing die forming without spending...

Hi,
I've seen 140gr. molds from RCBS, Lymann, and Seco. And they are all super expensive compared to Lee molds. I have the Lee 277-135 mold for 270, and ordered me a custom Lee sizer kit for...
I know it's an old thread but: I have a lot of 45 Super load data that uses HS-7, which makes it pretty much useless to me at this point as it's discontinued. I never did find a straight answer...
Hi. The 32 H&R mag. set I got for .327 Fed.Mag., doesn't have it. I got a 32 acp seating die as the 32 lee set is too long for seating. The flare die for 32 H&R will work for 32 acp if you take...

I have used the Lee 356-95-RF, Lee 358-105-SWC, and the Lee 356-125-TC; and of the three, only the 125gr works in my 9's and 357 sigs. Nothing works in my 380s. Jam-o-matic... Failure to extract...

Old thread, but just for completeness sake: 30-30 is Maximum Cartridge Length of 2.550 inches. Lee Progressive 1000 Maximum Cartridge Length is 2.3125 inches. You can still load 30-30 on it if you...

Hi, I would like to pick your brains on this. The lower tang on my "new" 1940 model 94 doesn't hold the locking bolt in anymore. It's worn so much the little catches are rounded off, so the level...

Okay, I've been experimenting. I've tried several different combinations of soap, additives, waxes, time, soaking, etc. And what I have found works the best FOR ME in the HF dual drum is:

I use the Lee C312-155-2R mold for my Arg. boolits. It works great. Its suppose to be for 7.62x39's, but it works perfectly for my Arg. I load them with 13.4gn of Unique, and it makes a great lite...

Okay, what do I need to powder coat? Then, how do I do it once I have all the stuff? Can I get the stuff locally (like at walmart, HF, or home depot?)?

I love mine. They drop at .4025ish using range scrap at 178.5gn. Quench, 45/45/10 lube. Load and shoot in my G29 as 10mm with LW barrel, or 40 S&W with LW conversion. I fire some FMJs after the...
