Look, I'm in my seventies, I have had a lot of friends. I have lost a lot of friends and seem what happened to their stuff. I was raised to not be a vulture but people like me are in the minority. My...

I've been to a lot of these rodeos and all I can say is "You're to old to believe in the Easter Bunny and Santa Claus" for the whole shop That is what he'll get for almost nothing.

+1 on dealing with a good guy. I bought some LNL bushings from him. Great packing, items looked like new, immediate shipping. I would deal with him again for sure. I almost forgot how fast he got...

CR,
Start about on the low side for about any powder you have listed for 45 colt. In my SAA's I like Trailboss and almost exactly what is listed for beginning loads. Try 2 to 4 before loading a lot,...

I did this very thing and had a problem. It may be, that Star dies are a different length than others but the expander or bell part of the die was to far up, or there was to much die below the bell...

I did a conversion van back in the 70's and the way you did the cornice was to go as far toward the wall until the curve stopped you. Then cut blocks that change the curve into a flat on an angle...

Interesting take on measuring these little sheet metal things. It seems someone should chime in and say that since the primers were made in Europe, they were made using the metric system that our...

I guess Redding doesn't qualify as a decent powder dump? This style mount with two screws through the back. Hey, it's neither red or blue....

No, I meant it should work on the older machines since it doesn't need any of the EZ stuff. If you watch the video, the brass is put into the top of the die and goes around and you take it out the...

Outstanding. That might be a good use for the older Hornady presses without the new ez eject feature. Save money and not have to breakdown your setups.

I put a lead muffin on top of the powder side and it stays put very well. The tickler doesn't move either.

***,
It looks like you for sure have the disease. That is a good looking group. I sold my only lubrisizer to a neighbor about a year ago, then borrowed it back to do some .45's. I would have to look...

If you read the Lee website, you can send them pictures of the broken parts and that is sufficient for replacement.
I chuck the deburring tool in my drill press and freehand push the case against...

I have been doing this for better than 20 years and have not had that problem with any brass no matter how it was cleaned or not cleaned. Are these straight pistol brass? Is it possible the brass was...

I would think maybe you are belling the case a little more than necessary and it is causing it (the bell)to drag on the way back through the die.

If you ever run one of the new ez-ejects you will never go back to the wire ejector. I updated mine with the new base and auto brass and bullet loaders and was a happy camper until I traded the press...

Your comments will be appreciated.

I can swear that there was nothing that wasn't brass in the load. I have only had this happen with military 30-06 and .308 brass. and not consecutive loads. I can put a piece of the bronze in my...

Depending on how your trigger guard is conformed, and the size of your "bird" finger, you will find in the neighborhood of 6gr of trailboss will tell you when you have enough. I have a Heritage RR...

Without stating or asking what amount of Trailboss you are using, my first thought would be that you are using a "to light" a load. The primers do back out of the brass a certain amount when they...

Once in a while I get cases that look bronze instead of shiney brass. I've had this using both dawn and ivory with lemishine. Not every load is like this and I can't figure out what I'm doing...

When I got close to being out of Unique and Bullseye, I started asking questions as well. I have settled on Red Dot since I found an 8lb jug. I am happy with it. YMMV

On the universal decapper, I have spares but recently ran out. Turned the rod end for end, drilled a 1/16 hole, turned the drill around, put the shank in the rod with loctite, cut off the approximate...

It's not mentioned in this thread but Lucas oil treatment (like STP) on an RCBS lube pad works great. I have tried Corbins lanolin lube and some others I have forgotten and prefer the Lucas. Try some...

Well now, What makes you think I didn't wash, tumble with SS pins and do all the normal things to clean the brass?
I wasn't the first one to fall off the cabbage truck. I have done this successfully...
