How many of you folks use the Lyman M die, and is it really that much better in preparing the case? Thanks.

Although I obviously never tried every one that's been made, but a case trimmer that trims perfect EVERY time. I've got the newest Redding lathe trimmer with a micrometer adjustment.. thought that...

Poll shows the majority has between 4 & 10 reloaders....Really? Some of us have a terrible affliction! They need help. LOL

Anyone using the New Hornady Concentricity Tool that's used for correcting bullet run out? Is it worth the time and most importantly, does it make a difference in accuracy? Whatched some videos on...

Anyone else use this stuff? Sounds like a good price. Any buildup or rust?

RCBS Heavy Duty decapping die. The pins are the same size as the regular ones! I thought well, maybe they're made of stonger steel....WRONG! Same as the others. What's that all about? Sold the...
Knifemaker.......hope you don't mind, but I sent you a PM regarding your Ruger. Thanks

Forgot...It looks like a dandy. Is it Brass? And how did you order it? What did you specify? ( can you tell...I want one?)
How much was the mold if you don't mind me asking?
Forum: Casting Equipment
Just getting started in casting & in the process of buying casting equipment. I've got a burner, stand and ingot mold and now I just bought a lead furnace on e-bay. Molds are next.
Anyway, I've...

I'm sure this question has been asked somewhere, some page before, but do most of you guys test for hardness when casting boolits, or do you just mix in some wheel weights and let it fly? I know...

I've used Remington 7 1/2 primers for years. Frankly, I've found they work as good or even better than most others. There's no "magic dust" out there. Every firearm especially rifles, shoot...
Sound like a very good die. I researched it and it makes sense. Trouble is, I don't see how I can use it on a Dillon 550 progressive press. The powder die has a cartridge specific expander bell. ...
Another advantage of a Star Sizer I guess. Boolit nose down, no lube on the base to wipe off. Really just wondering if a FB boolit would shave off a bit of lead when reloading if it didn't get...
Pat, I'd like to send you a PM on another matter if you don't mind. Thanks

Glad to see you got the decal, Steve. I never would have thought they would have bothered. That lead furnace is now discontinued, and the new models won't be available till late summer. Hope...
I'm looking at 2 Lyman Molds in 45 Auto: 452460 & 452630. One is a square base, one is a beveled base. Concerning the beveled base, I know it's a tad easier to start it into the case while...
Forum: The Star Equipment Corner
Getting ready to order a new Star. Was going to order it with a heater 'till I found out that a PID is the way to go. I don't want to build one, being so new to all of this. Is there anyone out...
Forum: Casting Equipment
You've made my mind up, Rick. Especially for a $40.00 aftermarket set up....and I already have a small wall mounted compressor about 6' away from where I'm going to be using the Star anyway. Thanks
Forum: Casting Equipment
Steve, As far as a decal goes, a very good way is to take a picture or download a picture of one. Then take it to a graphic arts shop...the ones that make decals for police cars, ambulances, boats,...
Forum: Casting Equipment
Beagle, Thanks....That makes a whole lot of sense to me. Boolit feeder means speed. Speed justifies air pressure to keep a constant flow of lube to keep up with everything else. I checked out the...
Forum: Casting Equipment
Just for my info....is the air feed that much of a big deal for 100 bucks? Is it that hard to tweek the handle on the lube feeder every now and again? Does it really take a little effort or does...
