Hello,
I took a Lee 32cal 105g bullet mold and filed the top off until it dropped 71g bullets. It works great for me, and it was $19 I think. I love lee molds. You can get them at Midwayusa.com...

I think I added an attachment.
I agree the lube was thick. I had an older bottle getting to the end so it was a touch thick.
I assume this is ok, even with only one grove and not the...

Guys,
I know this is probably out there somewhere, but I can't find a thread on it.
I have been casting 9mm in lee 356-125-2r with one lube grove for 30 plus years, and lubing in RCBS luber...

Thank you all for the info. I will try some new loads and see what I come up with.
Forum: Cast Boolits
I have not chronnoed it yet.
I know maybe too heavy, but I have had great luck with LEE molds and it seems many on here, say it makes a good bullet for SKS.
All the other molds were OOS and...

I have not slugged the barrel.
how do you do that again?
Drive a piece of lead down the muzzle part way, then back out again? Or all the way to the breach?
If the bullet was undersize then why...

Guys,
Been reloading many years and I have a problem I cannot figure out.
Worked up some loads 2 weeks ago.
2400 14, 14.5, 15G with the 155G lee cast.
IMR 4198 18-21 grains.
All seemed to...

But the question, is the blowing back hot gas going to damage the gun chamber?
Forum: Cast Boolits
All,
I have been reloading for years, but last week did some loads of the 7.62x39mm with the 155G Lee cast bullet.
I used 2400 powder, and worked up a load from 14.5g to 15.5g and in my sks they...
Forum: Cast Boolits
Yes, I have the same mold.
I use it my win Mod 94 with IMR-4198 at 21 grains. Works great for me.

Ok here is a question:
As a bullet is fired down the barrel, where does the lube come in to play.
The reason I ask, is I did some tumble lube pistol bullets (.32 acp in this case), and then...

I use the lee 170g .309
(Lee 2-Cavity Bullet Mold C309-170-F 30 Caliber (309 Diameter) 170 Grain Flat Nose Gas Check)

I just checked and they are .309...

I have been reloading for my Beretta Tomcat for a couple years. I use 78 g cast (I got from a guy on here), with 1.9g bullseye. Works great for me.
I am toying with getting a mold but I haven't so...
Forum: Cast Boolits
Great thank you...what do you size your bullets to? .309?
What type of lube etc?
Forum: Cast Boolits
Thought you guys may enjoy these pictures.
While I have been casting pistol bullets for years, I just started rifle for my 30-30 win 94 after Christmas. This is the lee 309-170fp and it seems to...

Hi,
I have been casting pistol bullets for years, but I am just getting ready for Rifle.
I have read a number of posts on this, but want to make sure to get the group's opinion before I get off...

I had a leading problem in my kimber sizing to .451. When I changed to a sizing die of .452, the leading reduced. My accuracy, is very good, and I am happy with the load. I use 200 grain swc from...
Forum: Reloading Equipment
which walnut do you want from harbor freight? fine or coarse?
Forum: Cast Boolits
No not major leading, but a few spots and to get them out with a wire brush is a pain in the you know what. Do I need to shoot more jacketed rounds to smooth up things?
Someone at the club told me...

I have been using lyman orange magic lube. Ok, I don't mean to be stupid, but I don't know how to slug the barrel. Does anyone know what size cast should be used in a Kimber Gold Match? I assume...
Forum: Cast Boolits
I cast myself. They are sized with rcbs at .451. I checked with a caliper, and they are right on the money. I haven't shot a ton of jacketed bullets as of yet, and this is a new gun with less than...

I have a 45 kimber and I am getting leading in my barrel after about 200 rounds.
I am shooting 200 gr swc cast, which don't seem to be that soft. I am pretty mild loads as well, 4.7 g red dot,...

Anyone using Wolf Primers?
I did a search and saw one person said they were fine, but that was all I could find.

Forum: Cast Boolits
You are correct the Lyman looks like a lighter bullet for the 32. It says 75 g.
I have been shooting 1.8g of bullseye in my 32 with either 71g jacketed, or the 75g cast I got from Sunndog. That...
