It's also not the case in hammer forgers barrels either. Point is if you're going to post technical information to teach someone it has to be much more accurate then what you said.

I see you contribute the same amount of negative non information as you've done all along. So you're saying that thicker case necks using 06 brass doesn't help accuracy with the Swede? I saw two...

Blammer,
I just got a new CZ550 in 6.5x55 and haven't gotten around to shooting cast from it yet, but my brother in law has a 96 Swede and we both have been shooting cast with it. He, like I,...

The bore size is the finished hole that is drilled in the barrel then reamed/honed. The lands are already there, they aren't made with grooving. 6.5 mm is not the groove size as, unless I read it...
They all have their pro's and con's and I've been able to cast beautiful boolits from all of them. A good aluminum mold will last a long time if you take care of it properly. Now with that said, I...

Boyd's sell sporter stocks for both and they are reasonable. Be aware with the Type 38 you need that D shaped bedding lug. Some other alterations too.

First clean your barrel and chamber. Next take a sized case and either fill it to slightly below the neck base with any alloy, or (what I prefer) find a steel or brass rod that will just slip...

Do a pound cast to get a very accurate measurement of the throat and also some of the breech end bore/rifling. You will also get a measurement for the neck diameter portion of the chamber.
If...

You only slug the bore/groove to insure it's not larger then the throat because it's not going to ever shoot then. You shoot the largest bullet that will let the cartridge chamber within reason. I'm...

You need to ask DagAmmo. I talked to him while back and forget what he said. It was something like the same factory makes Wolf and Tula primers. Don't quote me. Wideners said something about...

You are talking now. Just to punch paper the 9.3x57. Lot cheaper to load for and they shoot cast great. Those 9.3x57 Huskys are usually found on the gun auction sites and decent price.

There is a little work to be done on the 1917 action. Like milling the rear sight wings off to name one. The other thing that can become a huge problem is it's known that the 1917 receiver is prone...

I like what Larry Gibson posted. I can only add one thing at this moment and that is you can experiment with both LR primers and LP primers see which work best for the load. Would be interested in...

How do you get the 9.3x62 is a 375 caliber? The bullet diameter is .366. Both cartridges are great ones. If I were stuck with just one I would prefer the 9.3x62 as is will do more then the 35...

I think I would just buy that caliber in a new CZ rifle.

That doesn't surprise me one bit. More and more people in the gun world are finding out that the old CUP readings are much higher then they imagined them to be. I would have liked a...

That trigger I posted is from a fellow in Finland. I think the Finns know what they are doing and it's a good prices coming from that far. They've done more good to the Mosins then anyone.

The best fast burning powder is the one that works best for you. It gets old hearing about "dirty" powders. The one's that say this all the time have they ever shot black powder firearms at all? Just...
I retrieved that MIN/MAX headspace of .898/.920 from SAAMI. To me that is a lot of leeway!!!
I believe Ruger went to the large frame on the Blackhawk to aid production and possibly to cut costs as there would be one frame for all calibers. To say they did it to stop people from ho rodding...

The revolver should have been made to fire both systems reliably. If the head space is for a 45 ACP by SAAMI is .898 MIN and .920 MAX. You must have a MAX one. That is the measurement I was wanting...
