Forum: CB Loads / Military Rifles
I answered my own question by reading C E Harris' article in the sticky section. I'll shoot up all my 150 to 180 grainers using 16 grs of 2400 and when I get my target boolits cast, I'll switch to...

My old Lyman manual lists that 20 grs of 2400 with a Lee TL173 gr boolit is safe for 30-06, however is says nothing about being safe in the Garand.
I am a new Garand owner and I want a safe plinking...

Really! What is your trapdoor load? I would love to get mine to shoot.

My club is having two cast bullet military rifle shoots this year and I would like to use my 20" A2. I am not set up to cast 5.56 and I would rather buy some bullet heads from a forum member. My...
I am getting ready to reload for 9.3x62 and there is not so much reloading data out there. What powders work with the 60% rule?

I am sorry about the wrong placement of this post. Maybe the moderators can put it in the molds section?

My uses are paper killing and general clanger shooting. Too many hunting rifles to choose from.

Is this a good mold for my CZ Fullstock 9.3x62? The pickings are slim so I don't want to wait too long before I order.

I have a US Firearms peacemaker in 44 special and I am working on a hand load of a 240 gr Lee tumble lube boolit over 12.5 grs of 2400. Hopefully I can get a load for my pistol and Henry big boy to...

Congratulations on the new Henry. I have the same model and I installed a Skinner express peep on the receiver and replaced the front sight also. Mine is a real good shooter too. You can't go...

Unique is my favorite powder in my Winchester 1873 45 colt. You will have tons of fun shooting that fine gun!

I have a Shilo Sharps Military rifle that I purchased off the rack, but I love it like I ordered it. I also have a original trapdoor that looks perfect sitting next to my sharps. Those pictures are...

I have the color case hardened model and Henry stated that Marlin loads will be fine.
Thanks Piedmont. No, miroku does make a 1873 in 44mag. I was hoping that someone can plug my load numbers into a program and come up with a good guesstimate of my load pressure? I'll keep shooting...
I am a happy camper with my new rifle, a Winchester 1873 Miroku with a 24" barrel in 45 long colt. I shoot 1911's and have been using my lee 230gr TC 452 bullet in this 45 long colt. It shoots...

It looks like I will put the money for a new mold towards the rifle instead. I already have the Lee's in 200gr TC and 230gr TC and I'll just wait and see how they work. Buying a new rifle still...
Forum: Leverguns
I just placed a miroku 1873 sporting rifle on layaway and getting things ready for it. I have some Lee molds for 45acp, but they are .452 and I would guess that a .454 mold would be better. Anyone...

I have the Big Boy Brass in 44 with a two tone Skinner Express peep sight. Sweet looker and shooter.
Forum: Leverguns
I picked up a Henry steel case hardened in 45-70. I called Henry and the guy stated that any load a Marlin 1895 will handle, the henry will also. He told me to stay away from 458 mag pressures.
Stuff happens. It is time for a new chronograph. I can't justify the cost for a Labradar. What is a good reliable make for under $200? I don't need the printer function.
