Love my hi lift. I used mine several times but the most memorable was to spread my truck frame apart to replace the rear crossmember that rusted out. I replaced the top clamp on mine with an after...

I recently went to my local scrap yard and got wheel weights for $.75 a lb. there have been a few zinc and steel weights but the percentage was low. I was pleased with that based on the relative...

I picked up a CVA Hunter in 44 mag this summer and promptly reamed it to 445 super mag. Took a doe on opening day with it. I liked the gun before rechambering it. I really like it now. I don’t...

I think the instructions say to apply, size, re-apply.
I don’t know how low you are wanting but I got a Milt Sparks PMK for a 2.5 inch GP100. It is lower than a Combat Master, which I also have.

Nice rifle! I have 2 357 max rifles but neither are that nice. I really like this caliber in a rifle. I never had a chance to try the Hornady SSP bullets but that used to be the thing for a max...

The bullet might be a little heavy for the twist rate of the 92 but the problem that I had was that my rosi liked the Bullets a little fatter than what dropped from that mold. I have a LBT that...

The 180 grain WFN 357 max is a good one. Tomorrow I should be in the woods with the same thing only my gun is a handi rifle and it likes 19 grains of lil gun. Good shooting,

I typically buy online. Local prices are crazy. I just have to purchase in bulk to offset the hazmat fee or wait for free hazmat deal.

I have not met a PCC yet that I did not like. Don’t know what it is about them. I am torn between 357 and 44. Have been for years. Guess that is why I have both. Each year I switch between them...

I am a fan of Handloader also. I just started getting the back issues on CD. I figure that will be some good winter reading plus a good resource in the future.

35 vs 44 is a tough decision for me but I went with 35. Ask me on another day and I might go 44. They are that close for me.

When word first got out about the initial chamberings I contacted them about 357 mag. Their response indicated they would keep it in mind but there were no current plans, my summary. I sure hope...

I got rid of satellite about a decade ago. Never regretted it once. I have an antena and don’t often watch it unless it is for a severe weather event. Wether satellite or network tv,it is all a...

I am a big fan of the 357 max in a carbine. Been using one for the past few years in Indiana. Cast or j words they take a deer down quite well. Lots of fun loading too. Lots of options to play with.
Forum: Reloading Equipment
How about a lee loader? Compact with everything you need except a mallet and a hard serface to work on. This would work well if your handgun and rifle shared ammo. A 357 pistol and carbine would...

I have experience with both calibers from a rifle. Hot 357 kills deer and mild 44 mag kills deer. What more can you ask for? One thing I will say about mild 44 is that I appreciate that the...

Here is my recipe for success. .432 LBT cast and un-sized with a medium load of Universal. The bullet is plain base. One hole groups at 50 yards. Maybe that will be of some help. Oh by the way, ...

44 mag handi rifles can be contrary. I worked a long time to find a solution. It took a very specific powder/bullet diameter to find success. Good luck in you efforts.
Forum: Single Shot Guns
I cannot add to what you will need to do for the conversion but I can say 357 max is a great choice for a carbine. It is also a great choice for casting. I would be interested to hear how it all...

I have a PX4 45 that I was going to cast for. That was going to be my first choice for a mold. I did not want to spend much as I don’t shoot bottom feeders as much.

Just head east to the Hoosier state. We can take some more freedom loving individuals.
I will throw another option out there, Beretta px4 storm compact. I like the DA\SA pistols more than striker fired.
