Hey guys. I got a few PMs and figured I would at least check in. For whatever reason all of them were going in to my spam folder. I happened upon them by mistake. If anyone still needs some I...

Hey all. I bought some reloading stuff at an estate sale and am listing what I have no need for here. If you need any more info just ask. Will take PayPal friends and family or MO. Prices don't...

Awesome guys thanks again. Do any of you happen to know if the new tmag turrets will fit the old press? 6 holes is convenient for me because I can get 2 die sets on one turret. I would like to...

Yeah it works like a dream. I havent tried to push it to the limit yet, but at 40 yards I can hit a 4 inch target every time. Thats got me happy for now.

So the other day I found a reloading press for sale locally. I am currently only using a Lee single stage and have been looking for something to speed the process up. When I met up with the seller...
Forum: Gas Checks
I believe they are from vulcan gas checks.
On that note, should a gas check snap on to the base of a cast bullet? These checks dont really snap on. I have had to lightly tap on them with a...

I will give it a go tonight living them. As far as cleaning the sizing die up, is there an easy way to do this? I co lid use the high grit sandpaper, but would rather save that option for last
Forum: Gas Checks
I have not had a chance to shoot them unsized yet, but I think they would be too large for my barrel. Also yes I put them in nose first. The one on the right had a flaw in the PC, but I included it...

I have never lubed a bullet before sizing. All of my other cast bullets are powdercoated, but do not use a gas check. Also the inside of the sizing die is clear.
Forum: Gas Checks
I am new to the gas checking part of casting. I am loading a Lee 312-155 grain bullet in to a 300 blackout. I am using aluminum checks and sizing to .309.
Basically is it normal for bullets to...
I was going to, but I was also thinking what if since it was used they didn't want to take it back. But I should have time to give it a go tomorrow and I will post up pictures of the end result.
Sounds good. I didn't know that they were changing the way the molds vented. I thought that something had happened during the manufacturing process and was cutting the mold up.
I just ordered this mold from Amazon. When it came in, I opened it to find it with the machine marks below. Should I give lee an call and ask for a replacement or will this one be ok? I have...

Also with this mold, do you gas check? If so is it for super and sub or just one of them? Thanks for the info.
Forum: Cast Boolits
One other question for you all. I'm looking at molds and want to make sure there is data for me to work with when starting a new charge. I'm looking at the hodgdon site and everything if for...
Forum: Cast Boolits
So as some of you have seen, I am gearing up to cast for a 300 blackout. I have a lee 230 grain mold on the way but I am looking at another light weight mold as well. I see a lot of people...
Alrighty folks just an update. I have my 12" barrel and pistol length gas system. Thanks to wlc, I now have the lee 309-230 mold I have been asking about. As far as load data I have done some...
On another note, can someone recommend a reloading manual that has 300 blackout info? I have a Lyman 49th but it doesn't have any data on this round.
Also as far as casting the actual boolits, I...
Thats actually exactly what I am doing. I will start with super sonic just because I will not have the can right away. Once I do though I will stick to the subsonic loads. That's ks again for all...
I am in the process of building a new ar platform and decided to give 300 BLK a chance. I do plan on adding a can to this project, but I am also looking to make it into a pistol/sbr build. I am...

Thanks for all of the input everyone. I have other designs that you all could check out as well. The molon labe was just the first example that I pulled. Clicking the link in my signature should...

Greetings everyone. As some of you know, I have been selling vinyl decals/labels here for a few months now. I now think I have a way to make t-shirts using the decals that I have made, or even some...
