Unfortunately I don't know what lube it is, as I bought these from GT Bullets online. Though there is a picture, which may give an idea of what lube it is.

Hi there,
I'm still pretty new to cast so I figured I'd ask just to make sure. I put together some loads using a Kieth style 160gr HP with 13grs 2400 @ 1200 FPS and 173gr SWC with 12grs 2400 @...
I'll take a look, and make sure to apply all this advice for the future. As for what I was shooting, the majority were powder coated, but some were lubed. Alas, i'm not sure what they were lubed with.
Well should have just tried cleaning it from the get go. Pulled it apart and cleaned it and we're good to go.
Thanks!
Figured i'd ask here and see if anyone else has run into this particular issue. The gun in question is a new Model 19. When purchased the cylinder would spin freely without any issue. Recently...

Not quite setup for casting, and probably won't be for the near future. Looking for 1-200 75-90gr FP .311-.313 boolits.
Thanks!

Looking to buy 25-50 pieces 303 British brass. Can be more than once fired, as I plan to make .410 brass.
Thanks!

Wow, that's a cool rifle, and a cool story to go along with it!

Same thing here in South Dakota. Late spring with lots of fields not even getting planted. This week week farmers have really been moving, but that's because there hasn't been rain. Keep getting snow...

Just my opinion, but I believe Imgur is the superior hosting site. I've used it for the last 5 years with no issues, and the UI is easy to understand.

Thanks! I was under the impression that all Beaumonts were black powder? Is that the case, and your smokeless load is just low enough pressure it doesn't cause an issue?

Good looking project! Would you mind sharing your load? A friend of mine has one of these and was curious about getting it shooting.
That's a good idea, georger. I actually work at a university and have access to very precise scales, so i'll have to do that.
Well good news. New scale came in today. Calibrated it with a 50g weight, and then a 100 g weight. Verified it with several different projectiles.
I should have mentioned, I loaded all of these...

Good job! I'm going out this weekend to hopefully fill a tag.

Just Picked up a Spanish Mauser to do a conversion on!
I appreciate all the info! I'm just going to pull them, I would rather that, then ruin my revolver.
I do have one other question. I have some 175 gr Kieth bullets i'd like to develop a load for....
I figured that'd be the case, just want'ed to make sure. Thanks!
I think I may have messed up. I put together some 357 rounds, using a 158gr LSWC with 13.5gr 2400. I was using the supplied hornady electric scale, which I've found out isn't all that trustworthy, as...
Thanks Outpost, I figured that would be the case with the .313 bullets but wasn't sure.
Those of you that are loading heavy for the 32, i'm looking to double check my thoughts. I picked up some 100gr RNFP coated bullets sized to .313, I plan to start at 4.6gr's of 2400 and work up from...

This may be the best place to ask this question. I have a sporterized 1901 Spanish mauser I hope to use this kit with. The kit specifies that they're for a military barrel. it should still work...
