They probably wouldn't feed well either.

I can't seem to find a HP mold at the 200gr point from NOE. Anyone got a number?

I finally got to the range today.

The charge is light. The rounds ejected but did not feed.

While they weren't exactly key holing, the holes were definitely oval rather than round. I'll bump...

The only time I had anything like this happen was after a casting session. I unplugged the pot(Lee Pro 4,20) and started to clean up. The pot was not dripping when I walked away. I came back out to...

I loaded up a handful of cartridges with the bullets Hairy Dawg cast. Sized to .310, tumble lubed with Lee liquid Alox, on 9.5 gr CFE BLK.

This is an extrapolated charge based on data from Hodgdon...

xdmalder,
Accuracy at this point. hairydog was kind enough to send me a sample of the the 147 bullets(not HP) to test.

I'll post up my results when I get into it. It may be a couple weeks before...

Naporter,

Thanks. I'll keep my eye out for any updates.

I've seen the feed ramp mod before and expected it would probably be needed. I do have M4 ramps but even those sometimes need a bit of...

Well, I'm out of ideas!

Try a faster powder? Would a smaller charge of L'il Gun or 4198 or H335 be cleaner without risking detonation?(would detonation even be an issue in a rifle chamber?)

OK,

Lloyd,
Try running a 300 aac recoil spring and buffer. That may be enough to get your load to feed.

I'm looking to work up a sub sonic load as heavy as I can stabilize in the 1/8 twist barrel. I want a hollow point bullet for expansion at the low velocity. This will be SBR'd and suppressed...

I see several older threads about group buys of this mold but no one is talking about the results.

Thought I'd resurrect this old dog!

I just picked up Lee Load Fast progressive shotshell loader on the cheap. Just a whim buy as I have no need for another 12ga loader. After putzing around with...

I picked up a large ammo can this weekend to make a better quench tank. Hopefully I'll have some time to putz with this some this week.

Alan B,
Thanks for the offer. It'll depend on a whole lot...

Appreciate all the help there.

You are absolutely right, I just don't have the extra cash right now. I'm also too damn stubborn to admit that I can't do something.

I may convert this to an electric heating element, if I can do...

Do you mean the RV potable system antifreeze?

Alan B,
Thank you and yes, I have read your FAQs and instructions. Both are very helpful.

Thank you again for taking an interest in helping. I know how much work goes into making your product and...

Wheel weights and battery terminals. It should have trace arsenic.

I got a few minutes before the rain to try out the latest mod.

I added a layer of 1/4" aluminum to the ramp and raised the burner about 1-1/2". The lead melted with a much lower flame but the...

I think it's the distance from the nozzle to the ramp. I'll add a 1/4" layer of aluminum sometime this week.

The drops are hitting the ramp and flattening out drastically then bouncing off the...

Considering Dillon's "No BS" warranty, I'd bet they'll send you a manual gratis.

I ran a bit more and it looks to me like there is no rolling on the ramp at all. 2 bounces and into the drink with the second bounce being right at the edge.

I diluted the antifreeze about 2/1...

I just added more angle to the ramp and shortened it a bit. It's still about 2" wide though.

Is there any chance that the drop from the dripper to the ramp is to high?
