I bought and used a 7.2x51 reamer from ZPV. I was high quality and at least twice as sharp as the rented reamers I've used in the past. I sure wouldn't hesitate to buy another one.

I had the same problem a couple months ago. I purchased the tall '91 mauser front sight from brownell's. It will fit the 98 dovetail and it's tall enough that you'll have to file it down down to...

Thanks, Herters. That helps, I may just give them a go and post a follow-up after I try one out.

I'm getting ready to chamber a rifle barrel in 308 Win, and I'm in the process of getting supplies ready. I noticed that ZPV in Serbia is selling chamber reamers on Ebay, and I haven't been able to...

When I started reloading about 3 years ago, it was both to save money and because of a lack of available ammo. I did a cost to benefit analysis and found that if I didn't cast my own boolits, it...

I drive a 1990 f-150 with a 5.0 engine. The parts are cheap and the electronics don't control everything.

My first mold was a Lee 452-200-swc 2 cavity I purchased from Midway. I didn't want to spend a lot of money on a mold in case I couldn't cast a good boolit. Thanks to help from this site, I've...

Thanks for the information, Tazman. Common sense rules that are easy to follow. I wash up with regular bar soap when I'm done casting.

Here's how I get my headlights looking close to new- I sand the original UV coating off with wet 200 grit sandpaper followed by wet 400 grit sandpaper in the opposite direction. I then apply a 50/50...

My better half is deadly afraid of.... Crickets! When she was very young, she a had a bad experience with a darkened outhouse and a few hundred crickets. She loses it every times she sees one now....

I usually file as soon as I get the paperwork together. Usually about the middle of Feb. This year all the paperwork came in early.

I'd check the thermocouple with ice water and boiling water, then try it again, this time with lead in the pot. An empty pot can get very hot, very fast with nothing to absorb the heat causing an...

I'm no collector, but, if they were mine, I'd hold on to them just for the history.

I haven't used pet bedding from Walmart. I just wanted to remind everyone that fresh cut wood contains water. Please let it char completely before stirring it in. It could make for a less painful...

You're in my thoughts Oklahoma Rebel. You are not alone in this. I found my comfort in the serenity Prayer.

I don't shoot muzzleloaders but I separate my SOWW because there are 2 different varieties. One type is 99% pure lead and the other one uses the same alloy as COWW which is a little above 96% lead....
