How about gunsmiths(rifle) that specialize in Wildcats. Probably doesnt exist. Since most only focus on one or two Wildcats.

I had a project action I bought from Ed Hubbel. It's a 50bmg shellholder action that he modified to take 12ga rim, no barrel or stock. My plan was to get a barrel from pac-nor and headspace using a...
Rjm52, thanks
hopefully we can figure out Wich/if any of the 38 special only were Recessed. I don't think the model 20/23 or pre 1957 versions were.. and the 32-20 was a k frame only so probably...
Trying to remember Wich models we're Recessed, pretty much a 357- 44 magnum thing, right?

It shoots decent with steel cased wolf, 1"-1.5" (best 3 of 5 shots would be 1") My handloads with Hornady 123 fmj and Fioochi 1x brass were Not Good.

Slugged my 527 7.62x39, and found out it had .3135 to .314 groove dia. I don't have a lot of molds that will cast that large. Anyone with similar problems and molds that you used to work up good load?
Pics would help us give better advice, is hole"wallowed out", could setting pin deeper help?
Saw this mold that looks like blank mold for nose pour or something. Has anyone seen something like this before?

Cool, that settles my qualms about unburnt powder and #7, thanks. It's not really a barrel length thing, it's something common to #7 and has no significance to efficiency. Also in future I'll keep...

Is AA #7 #9 too slow to be burned efficiently in 4 inch barrel? I'm pretty sure #9 is too slow, #7 I've been on the fence, mostly cause I get some unburnt powder on the shooting bench when I'm done....

Over the years I've collected several of these carving tools that were sold by gunline (made by stubai) years ago. I'm wondering if anyone has a complete set. Or info on wich numbers /sizes were...
I was just talking about seperating the mold from the handles, to see how the mold screws were made, since the set screws are in a different place than the later modern bond molds i have, plus id...

I posted a question about the 429510 mold a while back, several members responded that they were designed to be a half jacket that was presses on later. Does the washer fit in the mold also?

One of these would be nice
I wonder who made the handles, i need to take it apart to see how the screws were made, thread pattern etc. The mold is/was so well made, it had to be done by a experienced machinist.
