If you hurry over to GB you can steal a five-pounder for $2200.

The Good Idea Fairy gets five rounds. If they work - ten. If they work - twenty... I've even gone home and pulled three losers.

It depends how desperate you are. I make .218 Bee from 7.62 Nagant with over 90% success. The .32 would be even easier. The headspace occurs at the shoulder with plenty of rim for extraction. Was...

As of July1, all new 700s will have a Timney trigger installed - a 3-4 pound non-adjustable Timney trigger. Evidently, the Bud Light marketing crew has moved on to other triggers. Why would Timney...

ARs are the drunk uncle of the family - on the outside I stick up for them because I feel I have to, but they sure are an obnoxious bunch, making scenes all out of proportion to their usefulness....

I've never done well with the fastest powders in a 9mm and that load pretty hot for cast - a lot of pressure forcing a leak. Something like a Unique or BE86 might help.

I got a good deal on a 4x 452460. Paired with a 5pound pot, it was miserable. It didn’t stay long, either.

The Savage extractor works - after filing the slightest bit from both sides of the major width. The ball works, too, should yours launch across the the cluttered basement.

If we get over the irrelevance of .008" short, we find the same operating pressure as the .44 mag. That's without bringing up all the Contender combos over the years.

I can bend over enough to reach that Enforcer. The last I bought, three months ago, was $25 - use it like 2400.

There’s not really enough wall to contain 50k psi. Add to that the zipper effect of the scope mount holes and it’s too much of a risk.

I cast and powder coat .311 balls to load 2x2 in a 20ga with clipped petal wads. One oily patch and it’s done. I do cry, now and then, over the few hulls I lose to smearing/tearing by the uncushioned...

"I tried to use excessive pressure on the bolt, hoping to mark the powder coat or brass…"
Measure some of those six noses. Anything over .300 is going to be a problem when it's long enough to...

When I see 'Dead CCI pistol primers' I can't get past 'I recently picked up a Rock Island .38 snubnose.' A soft spring won't snap a primer not firmly seated.

“I've also found a load for 4198 in the Hodgon Website!
Starting 32.8gn
Max 35.7gn”
That max sounds like too much. Thats a fast powder with a stubborn bullet.
The rubber ring, in the extractor groove, acts like a rim - enough to cause the round to fire and extract.

Hunter seems awfully slow for cast but there is usually Ramshot for sale when other brands have dried up. Enforcer might be more useful - dose it out like 2400. Powder Valley had 4 pounders for $100.

All out of a 16 inch barrel? The US will drown in the hearing-loss claims.
