I do like the new TS much more, and have been itching to get one in .45... Maybe I'll have to ask Santa to leave one under the tree! Anyone played with the .45 version? If the accuracy is as tight...

Hey there, fellows! Over on the HiPoint Firearms forum they are having an ATI gunstock giveaway, which got me thinking about them again. I've got the old style monkey gun in 9mm, and it shoots cast...

Meh, not a bad show, but no reloading or casting gear to speak of. I was hopeful as there was a fella there last time that had everything from Lee a guy could want...and want I did! But he was not...

Howdy, all! Anyone make it to the Pittsburgh gun show in Monroeville yet? I'm off today, and thinking about making the 1.5 hour drive with my boy to check things out. Need some pro 1000 tooling...

Here's a pic of the one he made for me. I can't give you a price, but suffice it to say it was very reasonable in comparison to similar work, and it's great to have something made to your exacting...

Gray Wolf,
I have a buddy that makes leather goods, and he made me a gun belt set for my Bisley for a reasonable price. If you are just looking for a holster, he may be able to take care of you...

Put me on the list of those who want to see! Always interested in new ways of doing things...

I have almost given up on the books for OAL. You need to remember that length they are giving you is for the specific boolit/bullet they used, and a different mold or manufacturer may have differing...

I don't bother standing them up. I do tumble them twice, once before and once after sizing, but I haven't had any problems with letting them dry in a single-layer "pile".

The guidelines seem to be three months in any kind of storage, but one would assume once vacuum sealed and frozen, dry sausage would keep a long darn time...at least until next season when it can be...

The preferred method is to remove the cylinder and place a peice of wood through the frame, right beneath the barrel. Possibly clamping a chunk of 2x2 or similar in a vise would do the trick. This...

Fatelk,
It may be worthwhile for you to keep that ol girl around. I use a Truline Jr. for all of my pistol reloading, and it does just great in that regard. It's small, so you can fit it just...

Paypal sent!

I am by no means a ballistics expert, so all that follows is merely speculation.

I imagine it is largely a function of mass. Small arms projectiles are just that....small. Their low weight...

From the pics I saw it is in ok shape, but not great. It has the box and instructions, also in ok but not great condition. I think I'll take Heavy Metal's advice and offer low and see what he says.

Hey there, fellas...

I have an opportunity to buy a Lyman 45 Lube-sizer for $60. Seems in fair-to-middlin condition, but comes with no dies. The gentleman assures me that it does, in fact,...

Bryan,
Glad to hear things are looking up! I hope the streak of good luck continues for you!

It is amazing what an awesome group of people we have here. Coming together like this to help...

I have read lots of comments about using RG's as boat anchors! Sounds like he forgot the boat, though! Lol

Well, last evening's group must have been lucky shooting! Ran a box through today and the best 5-shot group was around 4.5". Still ok for a walking around pistol, I suppose, and I imagine I can try...

A recent acquisition...$125 (about what it's worth)...

Roy,
That looks really handy! Although, for smaller (i.e 9mm) boolits, they may tend to tip. They'd be great for .45, though! Great ideas, fellows!

I love this place! Keep them coming!

Love Life, you need to build a trap! Crumb rubber is a much better storage media than dirt! lol

Gear - Another good idea! Flat-bottom, manageable size, and I bet they stack well to boot. Not to...

I have made up a bunch of lube that I am really happy with. It shoots well in my pistols, isn't real messy, and it's not expensive. It seems to have a hard time staying in the lube grooves, but I...

I have one in .50 and agree that it's really handy in the woods. Folks say with this twist you need to use minies or sabots, but in my experience this little fella shoots the PRB almost as well. ...

Must be something about Brothers and Hi Points! The reason I first was interested in them was I enjoyed shooting my brother's .45 so much!

Incidentally, I shot his .45 far better than I could...
