These lengths are out of the bag measurements.
I want to find a general purpose powder, since I may wind up using both jacketed and lead. Right now I want to find out if my Lee 158gr SWC'S will...

I just checked a bunch of the Winchester brass I ordered. Seems to run 1.703 to 1.705 long.
From what I've been seeing, it sounds like 296 powder might be the better one for this cartridge?

Just now finished the thread.
The way I'd do a PC bullet mold is to machine the 2 halves separate in a CNC mill. Downside is that there's always the chance they may not be perfectly aligned.
I...

Just found this thread, after I ordered a Stoner pistol length upper, lee dies, CMMG mag, and 100 winchester cases. Still need bullets though!
Won't have time to read the entire thread til the...

I decided to check out this topic because I saw someone on a FB group with an european made mold that was a 170gr RNHP. I can't remember the name, but a good looking bullet that I thought might work...

I finally broke out my lyman 450, haven't used one in years cause I started using the 45/45/10 mix for my pistol bullets, and wasn't keen on using it on rifle bullets. Used some lyman orange magic...

I notice you don't say a thing about gas checks. At modern rifle velocities, they are a must to reduce leading.

Found the thread, its the NOE 311365.

A few years ago, I was part of a group buy for a 198gr 3 cavity mold, for 30 cal. I'd have to go get the mold for more info, but I thought I printed out some information for loading this bullet, with...

I guess I need to experiment a bit. I have a chinese ithaca 37 clone, smoothbore, with rifle sights. It'll put remington 1 oz rifled slug loads in a 6" circle at 100yards if I do my part at the...

Made the pilot on Monday, and the roll crimper on Tuesday.
Found out, saw the cases much shorter than I was! Lots of work trimming the ones I had, down!

Testing on a .308 berdan primed case...

Actually, I don't. ;)
for some reason, all I have are too big or too small, probably cause I don't shoot any .40 caliber.

Upthread are the pics of my custom forming die.

Now that summers over, I've been looking at this again, and checking in on this thread. Just today bought the HF 2" cutoff saw. Trimmed one case a little bigger than 1.20" inches, intending to trim...

I'm surprised you guys are still finding shops that don't have their WW's contracted out to commercial buyers.

I'd be willing to pay .35/lb for WW's, if it isn't too crapped up, and if there was...

I've been planning in my mind a casting station for my basement. I was planning on a ductwork setup like strayround, but I'd have a in-line duct fan (same as his bilge fan, but 120V). Planning on 6"...

I've got a similar situation. MEC bottle nearly full of powder, PROBABLY uniqe, but I'm not sure. :(


ETA: small chance it could be 2400 also.

I was thinking of something like a lee tumble lube design as far as grooves go. Lee has a 200 grain truncated cone with a single normal lube groove. I was thinking as an experiment, machine it and...

Are there any molds out there for a .452 bullet, 185 gr, truncated cone, that is NOT a semi-wadcutter? I'm looking for something that emulates the 185 gr gold dot bullet, which one of my guns shoots...

So at my clubs outdoor ranges, they have these concrete "baffles" in front of the firing line, they are supposed to reduce noise for the neighbors. The problem is, they don't allow enough light in...

They are showing it at $319 regular price now, but $50 rebate for RCBS purchases over $300.

I have had primers go off while trying to remove them. IIRC, they were in .mil shells that didn't get full depth swaged in the primer pockets on first processing, so got jammed in there pretty good. ...

ST: I haven't moved forward on this project yet, working on other things. Still need to cut down the cases and trim to length (haven't decided length yet), then final trim on the trimmer. Might have...

After seeing pics of short barreled bolt actions on ar15.com, I'm kind of tempted to scope this rifle. I bought iron sights for it (and lost a screw already :|), but now I'm tempted to buy a bolt...

OK....the military stock I was watching went for just over $250. That's just...:veryconfu

I guess I'm off to order sight bases and the rear sight. I can't figure out front sight height because I...

Really nice!

I've been watching some stocks and barrels on ebay for the spanish mausers, but they are going for more than I'm willing to pay. I think I'll just drill and tap for some new iron...
