It has been two years since I have been able to get to my casting bench (kids and grandkids moving in and out), but I used their 2200+ and the Carnuba Red with great results. Great folks with great...

Wolfer - this is my first post here in a while, and to my amazement this was the first thread I looked at tonight. What a great flood of memories this has rekindled. I hunted with a deer club in...

Now THAT is quality family time, congrats. Parenting is rarely easy, but it is sometimes very rewarding.

Great job 35 shooter, that is going to be some very good eating venison there. I have been shooting deer with only cast boolits for many years now, and my brothers and hunting camp buddies all...

I also use the Dutch Ovens a lot during hunting camp. Love to make sourdough biscuits and or/ sourdough Jalepeno cornbread. Sourdough flapjacks work well too with blackstrap molasses. A guy who was...

I have the same problem, can't draw the bow any more. I've been hunting with handguns-only for quite a few years now (around 20) and can't remember how many deer my best friend, myself, my brothers,...

Got my invoice 10/07, paid immediately, and received them 10/16. Left for deer camp muzzle loading season on 10/17 without a chance to look at them. Took a look at them when I got back day before...

tja6435, you may want to check out Tom at Accurate Molds if you're not looking for a HP and you want Brass. His molds are very nice brass molds just like Miha's molds. Reasonable price on the ones...

Same here, have other molds on hand, will wait for this one. +1 on thanks to Simon for staying with it.
The 35-140s was my request; not originally designed by me, but added to his catalog at my request with small mods from the original I saw that intrigued me. It was for my .38 Super, and it performs...

I had the same problem as the OP when I was using the Ranier a few years ago. Switched to X-Treme and no more problems.

I'm numbers 1 and 2 on the list, and mine look correct; consider me verified. Thanks.
The 452374 is a great mold, I wore one out several years ago.

It should do the job quite well. My first whitetail was taken in 1978 with my Marlin 1895 45/70 and all four hooves left the ground (of course that could be due to it being a head shot).
I first...

I will add my thoughts and prayers to everyone else's here. I lost my mom and dad within 4 years of each other (1983 and 1987), and lost my best friend to cancer 3 years ago. Mom was 56, dad was 65,...
Last year I got a Mihec .45 Cramer HP 200gr. RNFP mold. I was casting boolits yesterday, and noticed one of the posts that hold the HP pin in place was longer than the others. Shortly, the HP pin...

I had C5 - C7 done 5 years ago, and they used cadaver bone instead of harvesting from my hip (I was glad of that because I had heard the hip hurt worse than the fused vertebrae). Only real pain...
