This is that same case that I cut in half. I tumbled it (probably way too long) and you can see some pitting. This was one of the worst cases with a ton of blue corrosion. I have no way of...

Got the last of them pulled last night and cut one of the the really bad ones in half. I have to say, it looked worse when I shined a flashlight in before I cut it. A lot of the blue...

That's not a terrible idea, I wouldn't be opposed to finding a mold and having some milder stuff for it. In the loaded rounds he gave me are some 8mm rem mag and 416 rem mag headstamped cases. I did...

The powder in the 1lb plastic container seemed fine but there was maybe 1/3lb left, not enough to be really useful. Thanks for the tip about vinegar, I'll give that a try. My plan was to pull them...

I recently got a rifle from an aging friend. It's a large wildcat he had built for an elk hunt that never happened but he kept the gun and loved it anyway. I got the rifle (minus the scope), custom...

My brother requested some zombie themed bullets for a 40sw. Tumbled in smoke's yellow green then sprinkled with a flame red that wouldn't tumble. He specifically requested "something...

Had a chance to mess around with a BTX and 40sw to 45 jacket expander. Full length 40sw cases, annealed, and some 40sw bullets from my reject bucket made a small handful of beautiful bullets....

This might be the place to ask...

I've been trying to find some reasonable and reliable load data for a double .690 round ball load. I have a .690 RB mold and some BP x12x wads on order. I also...

I second NoZombies. I always save my "rejects" for plinking and prairie dogs it they shoot just as well as the others. Actually, a couple years ago we were shooting prairie dogs down in the...

I believe the stingers are actually a steel case. Set a few on the work bench and wave a magnet next to them and they'll wiggle. I use 22 mag and cut down 17HMR for 243/6mm bullets just fine. I would...

Corbins website mentions using cornstarch in a similar manner. Put a measure of cornstarch into a core seat die (no bleed hole) and it compresses to a plastic like material. I don't know how ashes...

Easy, measure a small amount of ashes, pour them into the bottom of a jacket, then place a 1/3 weight jacket on top of the ashes and run into the core swage die. Think of the small core as a cork...

I struggled hard when I first started swaging . I saved up and bought a .224 from 22lr set and thought it would all fall together. My first bullet stuck in the point form die and I was heartbroken. I...

I learned early on that sorting by headstamp made things easier all around. My dies (and myself) do not like the federal cases. They take a lot more effort to draw out and I get the folds on the...

Not for my reloads, .358" diameter bullets chamber and shoot in my semi autos so that's all I've ever loaded them with. I only ran 18 rounds through it yesterday, there was some lube haze at the...

Thanks for the support everyone! I had considered other loads using light bullets and lighter charges, I could sure do that but this allows me to utilize a separate, unaltered cartridge. Having a big...

These are two that I botched. The first one I had tried using an actual metal chisel but the angle was too abrupt and broke a finger. The second one I had cut too far down, when I was flaring...

I've been playing around with an idea of making my 6 shot GP100 in 357 mag a bit more versatile. One thing I wanted to do in particular was to get the cylinder rebated for moonclips. Pinnacle...

No worries SeebeeMan!

I would prefer to keep it all together, I'm waiting for a response back from seabeeman before I make a call on splitting it. Thanks for the interest though!

Bump for the weekend crowd.

I recently bought a Thompson Center Pro Hunter from Haus of Arms in Colorado and it bothered me enough to feel the need to post my experience.

I was actively looking for a 45 caliber rifle to...
