Has anyone else had the same results or any problems with Universal ?

I like the LEE Classic Turret so well I have 3 of them. I use the Lee rings with the o-ring, work great and never loosened. I have In-Line Fabrication's reverse case kicker with a extra kicker arm...

Do a google for Lortone in Mukilteo, Wa. and email them.

I am going to buy a Lortone 33B double drum wet tumbler and need some sort of media. Are SS pins my only option ?

Thank you for the responses. Casting my own is something I would/will do but not till this fall. I have enough loaded with Jwords for now. I have discussed with Brad at MBC about his .358 rifle...

I can no longer afford Sierra 35 Rem 200gr. Jwords. I want to shoot my Marlin more than I do now but 46 cents a piece is a bit steep. MBC is where I get 99% of my stuff but 158 gr. is all they have...

I have looked at the electronic dispensers, I do not load enough 4198 to warrant that cost. I load about 100 a year of 4198 with my main powder for 45-70 being Unique. Having only one hand I am...

Thanks for the replies. Still thinking.

I load for a 45-70 and use IMR 4198, running the powder thru a RCBS Uniflow is a pain, like gravel in a meat grinder. Is there a powder measure that is more suited ? I do not want to use dippers. ...

Does anyone have updated information to add to this thread ? I am looking at using MBC #15 cowboy Hy-Tek up-sized to .001 or .002 with Universal ? Thanks, Jerry
You tried. I have a 327 Single Seven but have not slugged the barrel. Did read somewhere else that .312 is the number. I use MBC #18 HyTek at .313 and they pass the throats with a slight pressure....
My loads are in the middle of start and MAX, more or less, so there should not be a problem. I did read that a person did experience inconsistent weights in his drops. This I believe would be my...
I have been using the Australia made Universal powder for quite sometime. Soon I will have to buy the stuff from CANADA. Does anyone have some experience with the new stuff as far as load data being...

I am having the same heart burn with a 32 H&R die. Advice to me was polish it. I am using 4/0 steel wool and it is getting better. Next is a dremel buffer if needed.
Forum: Reloading Equipment
The instructions uses a phrase of abrupt stop at extraction to shake the powder into the case. I guess what I am feeling is the "abrupt stop".

I have a set of 32 h&r dies for my .327 Fed Mag. The carbide sizer is fine, the powder thru neck expander is a different story. It goes up into the die and engages the expand plug just fine. When I...

Thank you for the reassurance, I'll be okay.
Forum: Reloading Equipment
Here soon I will begin reloading for 270 Win. I use a LCT for 44 mag and 45-70. How well will it do for a bottle necked case with the slight rise in the turret when a case is inserted and the shell...
When you say NEW Universal do you mean the stuff made in Canada as opposed to the Australian made stuff ?
Forum: Reloading Equipment
Thanks, I do see what you are saying, I thought maybe someone had an aftermarket bracket that would work. Thanks, Jerry

Those of you that own a Lee Classic Turret have you ever removed the front column to gain more finger room ? I need more finger room. I do not use the Safety prime setup. Thanks, Jerry
I have been doing a lot of reading and AA#9 is what I will use in lieu of the 4100/Enforcer as a replacement for 2400.
Thanks guys for all the info. My local WalMart has powder on occasion but I have to go up to Albucrazy for anything serious. Sportsmans WH, and Petersons gun shop. On occasion you can find powder...
