My 3855CB is also 0.380, I size to 0.381 using Starline brass.

I use 3/8in silicone ice cube trays for my 38-55 (0.95in OAL) and 44mag cast bullets. Likely too small for larger than 44 cal. The trays handle 400F just fine. Try these:...

Thanks - very useful info.

Savvy Jack - nice shooting with the Marlin CB at 265yds. I see you are using the Accurate 43-214A which has no crimp groove. I am using the 43-220C in my 44-40s with a light roll crimp using an RCBS...

PM sent for die order

Another great bullet for both the 32H&R and 327 is the Accurate 31-105C. The nose is just the right length for the Single 7 with 327 brass. I use this bullet for moderate loads, 900-1100 fps. ...

I installed a modified free spin pawl from Power Custom in my 7.5in Single Seven and now its very easy to load and unload. I am using the 115gr Miha HP in my Single Seven 7.5in with OAL of 1.480in...

I have a Lyman, RCBS, Saeco, and a Star. Only the Star gets used these days. I have Lathesmith dies for lubed bullets and NOE bushings for PC bullets. I may never use the other sizers again. Just...

PM sent for more Star dies

My 7.5in Single 7 is the most accurate Ruger handgun I own (I have about 10, all single actions). Lots of 25yd groups in the 1.25in range. I size to 0.313 and the throats are 0.314. Of the...

I suspect this mold will be just perfect for my Single 7:

Mine is now on the way.

I load 38SP, 357Mag, and 357 Max using a Redding Carbide set. Redding dies are always my 1st choice. With cast bullets, I use their competition seater and roll crimp in a 4th step.

His molds are fantastic! I have 15 now with more on the way.

PM sent on Star Die order

I have enjoyed posts from 44man for several years now on this forum. Much to learn. All knowledgeable and interesting individuals have strong opinions. Please reinstate. We also lost 45 2.1 a...

I have one of the first production Single 7's with 7.5in barrel. Zero issues and very accurate. My max OAL is 1.490in. This is not an issue with available jacketed bullets but some of the older...

Received my COWWs this week. Mail man was not happy but I am! Great job Kathie.

Dick - that old DX of yours shot a 0.6in 5 shot 25yd group a couple weeks back with Verals 280gr LBT and some Power Pistol. I have a Burris Fastfire on it these days. Fantastic revolver.

I have at least 12 of Miha's molds, even ran group buys for two of them. They are all fantastic! Only the 477-640 HP needs some extra care when casting. I mostly use an RCBS bottom pour and with...

High Desert Hunter: I have the Miha HP mold for my 480 SBH. While the bullet is accurate and a great hunting bullet, I find the mold rather slow to cast if you want nicely formed bullets. I...

Send a PM to Sixshot. He makes a nice front sight blade in either 0.370in or 0.390in height. I just bought two, one for my SBH 480 and one for my Bisley 45 Colt. Here's a link with info:

Taffin has some good HS6 loads here:

I would try HS6 and a 370gr LFN in the 480 Ruger.

I recently received a Mountain Mold I designed for my BFR 480/475. I wanted a bullet on the light side of 400 gr that sits rather deep in the Linebaugh case. I came up with the bullet on the left,...

The Gun Shop in Idaho Falls had eight 1lb cans of 4759 on the shelf yesterday.

wrench man: Eugene, my home town!

If your issue is primarily with new brass, here's my solution. New Starline brass is very clean and generally without any residual lubricant. I always put...
