I was hoping to this evening with a new Lyman .457 roundball mold but midway didn't get it out on time.

First off, glad you & your cat are ok & the only victims are some flooring, cabinets & walls.
Obviously wood putty for the wood work & Spackle for the drywall will take care of those.
The linoleum...

WW's have been spoken for.

Agreed

I've got a tire shop in St Pete FL that sells me his weights. $40 a bucket, sometimes $30 (basically whatever I feel like giving him) Once or twice a year I bring in
donuts, just because.
Anyways...

Well I just happened to be in the Home Depot where I bought that can several months back. Sure enough, no hammered green. Not that I doubted you Chris but I though maybe I'd see a few cans on the...

Didn't go all the way bare. Just a quick scrape to get the loose peeling, primed then 2 coats.

I've torn down my reloading room for a pending move but here's a vise I painted next to a LAM II using that hammered green.
...

RustOleum makes a hammered finish in a rattle can thats pretty close to rcbs green. Got mine for a vise project from my local home depot.

Ding ding ding. A quick google search shows the same images....thanks a bunch.
Its in my late grandmothers china cabinet. Had no clue what it was.

Thanks again.

Its made of silver and has a slight oil or petrolium smell to it.
The point is very sharp and small and seems held in place loosely in the cap...maybe by a spring...definitely not soldered in place....

^^^^This^^^^

Also as a backup plan see if your local tv stations have a consumer complaint reporter that you can contact. I've never gone that route myself but it's truly
amazing to see a company...

Not the reloading room but at work in the shop...2 days of solid rain. It's nice to cast while on the clock :mrgreen:

Go to the last page of that link. He still had a few a couple of months back...just might get lucky.
Good luck.

I highly recommend a Mihec MP .454-225 4cav brass, if you can find one. Contact Mihec thru PM here & see if he's got any from the last group buy....

Been there myself.
Dislocated left shoulder at work. Continued to use it for 9 months before I couldn't stand it any longer. MRI said torn rotator & labrum.
Surgery & 4 months off work plus 14...

So I see I'm like most here & cast indoors. No special fans or ducts. All done in the FL room (those from FL or the south know what that is) which is also my reloading/computer room.
Again I don't...

Yeah I'll probably get flak for this but...I cast indoors.
READ: CAST...Not smelt.

All smelting is done outside for what should be obvious reasons. Clean lead is then used in my bottom pour which...

+1 for another g30 that hates swc.
Bought a MiHec 454-225 4c and man what a dream to use. Zero FTFeed issues.
Last I heard he still had some available. Might try a PM or email.

I purposely left the gun out in my op in order to not add to the complication. These loads are going down a G30 primarily but a G21 as well. Primers are standard LP.
Naturally I think we'd all agree...

Planning on Fri AM at the range with my chrono.
I get what you're saying about burn rates & how fast the pressure spikes or peaks. Fast powders produce a faster peak, which "should" produce a...

+1 to what btroj said.
No lube or sizing
very light charge
clean after each cylinder full

I did this to my ss redhawk a while back using a beartooth lapping kit. Rugers SS is some of the...

I've never loaded lead rifle before but here's what I'd do.
FL size in #1 (of course)
Try seating a boolit. If it shaves any off, then maybe look into a Lyman M die.
If nothing seems to get...

Nice job cutting. Is the bottom rounded? Hard to tell. Most guys, myself included, cut a 2"-3" ring from the left over top & weld it to the bottom for some stability...sorta like a cradle.
And yeah...
