Since we are kind of on the subject, "My Cast Bullet Krag Plinker " was in HANDLOADER'S Digest 1997. I have done some stuff on Walter Hudson, most notably "Walter Hudson Krag Specialist" in Gun...

It was Walter Hudson during his 1904-05 series of developments that resulted in the 308284. One of his early failures was the 308223 200 grain. The long nose rattled around under the rifling during...

Jim Floral - I am related to that guy by marriage. He and my wife will be married twenty years this June. By the way, he spells his name with one L - Foral, but that is a common mistake I'm sure he'd...

(I see that your overall cartridge length is just over two inches. With the standard Krag throat, you can easily add an inch to that. I have six Krag sporters with peep sights and load them in excess...

My eyes have been opened! Thank you - from a throwback.

Anybody have one for sale?

I think I would go along with those who believe that the .303 was always a .308 diameter bore. Muddying the water somewhat is the Ideal 308243 bullet which is said to be for the .Savage 303. It is...

I have a 99 takedown that thinks its a varmint rifle. I shoot 100 yard 2 inch groups and less all day with 311291, 311413, and 31141 and 311334. Mine wears a Lyman tang sight with a big Watson sight...

I think I still have that 14 gauge ball mold. An Ideal

Thanks to all who answered. Looks like my needs have already been taken care of.

Anybody have one of these things orphaned and laying around in a parts box? I need the insert to go into a sight band dovetail, and needs to have the flat topped blade. It doesn't have to be pretty....

I've had a few MB molds, the latest a DC for a 218 grain .30 cal. It's a good Krag bullet. As far as I know, no other moulds will fit the handles of MB and the converse is also true.

Deeply sorry for you. I'll remember you and your bride in my prayers.

I won't forget to pray for both of you. Stay strong.

I had used them and almost forgot that leading was removed from a .357 revolver with these wax wads. A gun writer friend, R.H. VanDenburg, sent me an envelope full. He swore by them.

I have a nice old mold for a 44 WC 190 grain. Casts a good bullet ,but unbranded. It is unitized like the old Ideals. I need fifty bucks for it. I can send pics/. PM me.

That's a Yankee mold. I like them but already have one in 311413.

I tried teflon tape on a smooth sided, grooveless, 30 caliber clone of 311291. I experimented with a wire wound bullet in the early '90s, wrote it up in Handloaders Bullet Making Annual (1991 or...

I have been successful in finding them in the trash barrels at our Ikes range.

I don't know if I discovered this or if it is common knowledge, but I have been using the clear plastic boxes with removable sliding lids that 22 Magnum and the 17 RF magnum cartridges come in to...

I know I've seen it but can't find it. Could someone direct me to a roster of Ideal Handbooks and which year each was issued. I am convinced that a lot of guys would be interested in such a thing at...

fs Happened onto two cans of Bullseye in the old metal cans. Sell for $25 each or trade. Won't ship. PM me.

last year I used LP primers exclusively in my M54 .30 WCF. I did this to conserve the LR primers, It was a wise move from several standpoints.
