At one time, the LEE C309-160R and C309-180R nose dimension ran .298”-.299”. Do the current production molds still have the undersized nose area? I am working on a project that requires the...

The split neck case check for OAL has been one of my tools for years. It's simple and works!

I would say your first outing was very satisfying. It's good when things go the way you want.

Yeah, the RCBS Sillywet is super accurate in my K31 as well. I just have a hunch the Loverin CB's should be accurate also.

I appreciate the feedback and the load data. I have most of a pound of 5744 on the shelf, so I will give it a try.

Hmmm... all your recommendations are for heavier bullets. While I am not discounting the heavier weight CB, I am interested to hear results for the 150gr CB. The Swiss military ammo is in the 170gr...

Has anyone tried either the Lyman 311466 or 311467 Loverin design CB’s in a K31 for target shooting, and if so what were your results. Thanks for your time.

If you have a Kindle the book is available from Amazon.

I'm from the Lone Star state, about an hour's ride west of Fort Worth, and live in the town of Mineral Wells. It's not the end of the world, but you can see it from here.:smile:

Because of the shallow rifling in 1911 barrels you should find better accuracy and less leading with a harder bullet. You can harden your range scrap by water dropping the bullets from the mold. You...

StrawHat,
Thanks for all the links. There is plenty of info there for me to chew on.

35remington,
I appreciate your feedback and your recommendations. I have seen the 5.5gr to 6.0gr Unique 255gr CB loads in an old Speer manual and thought I might give them a try.
You bring up a...

I bought a gently used RCBS 45-255-SWC. My plan is to load Auto Rim for my 625 Model 1989, for target shooting only. I’m having difficulty finding loads for cast bullets weighing 255gr. I would...

A while back I took a LEE single cavity .30 caliber 200gr RN mold and drilled out the GC shank. It took a while to find a drill bit with the correct diameter. The one I found was a few thousands...

A friend of mine acquired this mold. It measures .357". There are no markings. Anyone want to venture a guess as to who made the mold and any other information .

Here are pictures of my new Lee mold and its CB's. I dehorned the sprue plate, which I think you can see in the photos. I also installed a set screw, so now clearance between the sprue plate and the...
