Thanks for the heads-up. But I find it really annoying as I had clicked on the "Notify Me" several weeks ago and haven't heard a word since, and I check my email several times a day and the Starline...

Like you, I'm downsizing, though my .32 tribe has been growing ;)
I bought the 275 version of the MP mold and the mold is outstanding, producing great bullets.
My intent was to use this in my Dan Wesson 1911 Valkyrie. It fed and functioned well, but at 10 yards...

Thanks for the explanation and links. Much appreciated.

Can someone explain what "Hardball" alloy is? Where did this term originate?
I am used to the military 230gr jacketed ammo being referred to as "hardball" but am not familiar with "hardball" lead...
The LGS last week had a couple of cartons (1000 primers) of Remington 1 1/2 Small Pistol primers on the shelf for $89.99 per carton. He also had some Remington Small Rifle primers for the same...
I have a pair of Culina smooth "Cokes" on a K-Frame. They are well made and look good. Like Keith Brown, he has garnered a following that has resulted in both of them with backlogs.

There is a Colt Officer's Heavy Barrel Target .32 listed on one of the auction sites now. Very nice gun with the box.
I'm a S&W guy so not interested in this gun, but it looks like a beauty. The...

I bought one of the MP HG275 bevel base molds. I've owned more than a dozen MP molds over the years. Unfortunately, my Dan Wesson 1911's don't like this bullet. Keyholes at 10 yards. Sure makes a...

Speaking of CG cutters... I always thought it interesting that we had MEC - "Medium Endurance Cutter" and HEC - "High Endurance Cutter", but no LOW Endurance Cutters :)

I was on a 1944 built 213' Navy ARS - turned CG WMEC. Seagulls would land on the fantail, and if they stayed long enough, they would get seasick, and it was pretty easy to catch one. The CO wasn't...
MP molds #68 clone, aluminum 6 cavity. To replace the old MP #68 Brass 4 cavity - it is heavy!
And MP version of the H&G #278 9mm in an 8 cavity aluminum.

My son-in-law in Juneau needed some shackles for his boat trailer. The company in Michigan that manufactured the trailer wouldn’t ship to Alaska, but they would be...

Good guess, but I’m now living in Minnesota on a lake. Reckon I should update my Location.

Great to see you at the show, Jon. I always enjoy our visits.
I’ll keep my eye open for a .41 Blackhawk for you.

I wasn't familiar with the shop you mentioned. Lakes Trading Co. in Forest Lake had a bad fire in 2018 and they are back open under new management. Never been to their shop, but remember the news...

Some years back Ruger offered a bead front and V rear as accessory options for the Redhawk. I think they would fit the Bisley hunter, but it does not look like a current option from Ruger.
That's a nice find!
I never cared for the "Bling" on the gun, but it is what it is. IIRC there were a dozen or so made as "overruns" without the special Springfield Armory markings.
