Forum: Cast Boolits
Lyman doesn't list the 412263 and if I can't find one on eBay I will have to go with something else. I had already looked at the Accurate Moulds and he does have an endless supply of choices.
Forum: Cast Boolits
Curious to see what folks are using for the .405 Winchester with cast boolits. I have a new one made by Miroku in Japan and haven't slugged the barrel yet but when I do I hope it is .411. Molds are...

I guess when the wife asks "What the hell are you doing?" I will have to respond that I am applying the latest in mosquito control. She will then respond that she would rather have the mosquitoes.

Couldn't find anyone asking this so I will. Those stick-on wheel weights that are probably pure lead have a nasty sticky paper and adhesive on them. Other that throwing them in a pot and watching...

I checked out the NOE website and think I found what I need. I will give them a call. Thanks for the advice.
Forum: Gas Checks
Have a mold that casts the proper bullet for the .351 WSL, Ideal #350447. Diameter is .352 which is good, but it is a gas check design and I would like to use them. I will assume I can use a .348...

I bought my first No.1, a No.1-B in .257 Roberts. I have enjoyed it over the last 25 years so much I bought some more. I now have 17. The smallest caliber I have is 6mm Remington, the largest .458...
Forum: Case Forming / Re-forming
Most time consuming to me is .45-70 to 8x52R Siamese Mauser. Also do some easy ones, 8mm Mauser to 9.5x57 M-S, 9.3x57, 8x56 M-S; .303 British to 6.5x53R; .284 Win to .375/.284. Most case splits...

I love this, it has a European sporter look to it. Very nicely done!
Forum: Military Rifles
Now if I can just find a Sedgley Springfield sporter at the right price I would be satisfied. Always wanted one and couldn't afford one.

I hope someone will recognize the rear sight on my gun and tell me who made it. I would love to find an aperture for it so I will have a smaller hole to look through.

I have always like the smooth Krag action and shot one for many years. It was an 1898 model, no mods to it, and it shot great. Found this rifle on Gunbroker last year and had to have it. Someone...

Blank seems like a good idea. Better than trying to cut an extractor groove in a .220 Swift. Like Andy Griffith said, "There's more than one way to pluck a buzzard."

I form 6.5x53R cases from .303 British, easy to do . I didn't have to turn the rims down. You can also buy the cases from Huntington's Die Specialties. Made by Bertram, they are ready to load. ...

When I got my No.1 Ruger I compared the powder capacity at the correct bullet seating depth of the .308 Winchester and the .30-40 Krag, and the Krag case had 11% more capacity. Based on that I used...
Forum: Military Rifles
I love the .30-40 cartridge. I have a Ruger No.1 in .30-40 and a 98 Krag sporter I hunt with. The extra action I have may end up as a .30-40 as well.

I was lucky enough to find a set of form dies in an auction that also included a set of RCBS Full Length dies. I didn't realize it at the time but I could have used .33 Winchester dies for the...

It is a .33 Winchesterbarrel still in the white but I wanted to fit a stock first. In addition, I have a spare action only and a full military rifle that I shoot (original caliber). I also have a...

Can anyone point me to someone who makes a wood OR synthetic stock that will work on the Siamese Mauser? Slanted magazine presents a problem. Or, suggest someone with a pantograph machine that will...
