My ‘93 crawled over and faced the wall and is sobbing after I showed it the pics of your rifle…

That is an extremely nice looking rifle!

Purchased 12 K of Fiocci large rifle primers in 2019 from Grafs. They have performed flawlessly for me. I would definitely purchase more; especially if at the price I gave for the original batch -...

As a kid in the early sixties, crows roosted in the trees of the state park about a mile or so from town here in north Texas. I assumed it was a normal occurrence to have thousands of crows flying in...

Wouldn’t the boolit be laying on the bottom of the chamber rather than resting in the throat upon firing? Seems like the accuracy would be “ negatively affected “ by this arrangement. Have you...

I have the old style mould in 8 mm Maximum design and it works well with wheel weight alloy; but as others have mentioned here, the casting rate must be rapid and the alloy hot in order to produce...

What’s the normal land diameter for a 9.3 x 62 ? And how much over land diameter can the boolit be sized to and still be successful as a paper patched projectile? Seems like Pdawg shooter recommended...

What boolit and what twist rate on your AR 10 barrel? Nice shooting!

It appears you are describing land diameter ( bore diameter) as opposed to groove diameter. The correct way is with pin gages. It is possible to use a bore rider boolit if the land markings are...

Was it cool enough where you took the hog to make it worthwhile to attempt to cut it up and save the meat?

A cast boolit normally will not produce as high a chamber pressure as a jacketed bullet/ load with projectiles of the same weight, as long as variations in seating depth are not...

A quicker way to check a wheel weight to determine alloy is to attempt to bend it with your hand. The lead/antimony alloy is malleable and will bend easily if not too short. The short ones can then...

I have that mould design I believe. It’s the rcbs Spitzer 180 grain gas check with the bore rider ogive and very small meplat. If you have a bore diameter that is preventing the boolit from being...

If you can accurately weigh it in air on a balance and then measure its volume by submerging in water and determine its density, you should be able to determine whether it is Lino…

Winger, that has to be the most demonstrative picture of all time in regards to describing the “ not my job” attitude!

The Armored Dillow is best dispatched with the Lahti 20 mm round. If that’s not available, a .22 will usually make ‘em jump remarkably high with a body hit. They are so blind I’ve had them walk up...

Jesus told Peter he was blessed because he had been taught by the Father as to who Jesus is. Matt. 16 v 16 - 18. He then says that the foundation of His Kingdom is that everyone entering His Kingdom...

John, would the boolit be large enough in diameter to try shooting it using a tumble lube like Ben’s Liquid Lube? It’s an interesting design and like the original Bator .224; has a large meplat for...

Went back today and checked the weight and volume of the Red and Tacky grease in a cylinder with both ends removed. The specific gravity worked out to be .916 rather than the .90 shown by Lucas (...

John 5:24 tells us that upon hearing His Word and believing His Father has passed from a state of spiritual death to spiritual life and that this person does not enter judgment.

In post nine Ben was explaining that he was measuring the different components by volume rather than weight. A number of those posting were of the opinion that weighing the components was easier than...

My dad had a M 11 and I have an A-5 and both the 720 and 745 Savages. The 720 was a pawn shop purchase in New Mexico. Upon trying to shoot it I was disappointed as the gun would not fire. Upon...

A member here (Nobade) described rechambering a 336 in .35 REM to.358 Win and using .35 REM data to remain within safe pressure levels. The small primer .308 brass could be necked up and used. Of...

B A Wallace:

What twist rate and land/ groove diameter is your 7x57’s barrel? Is it throated long, and are you seating the boolit out to touch the leade into the lands? Is your rifle a...

Freischutz; I vaguely remember someone expanding the neck of a cartridge ( not sure who or which cartridge he chose to expand) and inserting a piece of .223 brass with both the neck and rim...
