I’ve had good luck with RCBS service. My Chargemaster has not had issues, but I bought one for my dad, and it had issues. I ended up sending it back. They replaced it, but tested it with the sakes...

I’ll chime in here. I have a rule that works for me. My reloads go through my guns, and nobody else’s. Nobody else’s reloads go through my guns.

One exception, though, I was shooting with my dad,...

Well, looks like NYfirefighter beat me to the punch.

Another idea is to use the next size up, drill and tap through the side, into the cavity,for a 1/4-28 set screw, and turn the set screw in or out to adjust the powder charge. Once you have the charge...

I was at the gun counter at Gander Mountain one day. Someone looking for their first handgun is fondling the pistols. Muzzle sweeps me. I politely told him not to do that. Does it again, and I...

I just found info on my phone, it is a Weider Club C650. If you google that, you will get an idea of what it is.

Frkelly - I have a set in my basement. If you’re interested, it would only cost you a trip to Traverse City. It is a Weider (I think), rack system, with the bench, pull-down, pectoral, legs, etc. I...

I haven't tried any without the check. All that I have cast have been powdercoated and checked. I'm afraid if I pull checks off, I might damage the base of the bullet. I'm probably going to cast...

I have not tested without gas checks. Might be a good test. If I test that, I'll report back.

I use the NOE push through sizing system, as they have a lot more sizes to choose than Lee. Sizing...

Don't know how fast they were going, don't have a chronograph. I am using large pistol magnum primers. Gas checks are Gator gas checks, from NOE Molds.

Gave my shoulder a good workout. Recoil...

I just shot some of the Lee 440 grain bullets in my Beowulf tonight. Powdercoated then gas checked. 42.0 grains of Reloder-7. 2.100" COAL. Three shot group at just under 1-1/4" at 100 yards. Only...

I have been using the RCBS Chargemaster 1500 for about 8-10 years (time flies, I can't remember). It has been flawless. I got one for my dad a few years ago, and we had some issues. RCBS customer...

I have used the Bosch and Milwaukee brands, with good results. For torx bits, the best I have ever used are GRK brand. I bought them at a local lumber yard, but you should be able to find them...

I got 100 empty 50 Beowulf cases and a die set. Just ordered an Alexander Arms 50 Beo upper and a few other items I'll need to put this together. Can't wait to make some noise.

Merry Christmas...

I use a brave response iwb holster (braveresponse.com). It has an elastic band that goes around your waist, so it is not supported by your clothing. Similar to the holster in the first photo in...

When we used to winter camp with the Boy Scouts, my feet would feel like blocks of ice, until I found a pair of Baffin Eiger boots. Those are truly game changers. It's worth checking them out. I...

Just take a cue from my dad. When I was graduating from college, he and my mom bought a 27' boat, that they basically used as a summer getaway. An uncle of mine was talking to him about the boat,...

Lloyd, is that Northern Arms that closed down? That's too bad, as they have a shooting range there that I told my daughter about.

She is in Marquette. Where is a good, safe place for her to go...

I have recently acquired a 445 Supermag rifle (H&R Handi rifle). I have some loads worked up for jacketed bullets, but being the frugal type of person I am, I would like to work up loads with cast...

Why don't we have a group like this singing at the super bowl, instead of some "famous" jackwagon that puts their own spin on the song?

Might as well chime in with my story. I bought a chargemaster that works flawlessly. A year ago, I bought one for my dad. He had issues with it going over charge, running too fast, etc. called...

You might be thinking of Duncan's. I went there with my dad last year. Neat shop. Older gentleman met us at the door, shook our hands and told us to make ourselves at home. I try to visit there when...

You can't go wrong with Smoke's powder. I fought with Harbor Freight powder for a while, and now am using Smoke's powder with the "shake and bake" method.

I use this system on my Lee Classic Turret. Works great for me. My dad used it, and then bought the same systemfor his Lee single stage press, and it works well for him also.

My wife carries a Firestorm, which is just a rebranded Bersa Thunder. Great little gun, quite accurate. I load up Lee 356-102-1R bullets, powdercoated with Smoke's red powdercoat, over Titegroup...
