I was shooting my raging bull with 300 grain Lee bullets over not enough h110 and I had a bad hang fire/squib . The gun went pop then.....boom. The cylinder opened hard and was full of brass colored...

I've found it pretty hard to find reduced loads for the 454 too. My favorite is 23 grains of 2400 under a Lee gc300 wfn

So I'm looking at getting a custom powder funnel made for my Dillon. Now what diameter should I make it. I'm loading Lee 124 tl rn in two different guns. And if it won't work I'll buy another mold....

From what I understand u still have to machine the bottom of the die To use the 357 funnel

I've done hours of reading on 9 mm leading problems and I'm convinced I need a different flare due to swaging. I'm loading on a Dillon 550, with Dillon dies and powder measure. I know about the m die...

Mine leaves a dull grey coating I believe is burnt powder coating. And it leAds the second half of the barrel

I'd like to try the case expander idea. I'm loading on a Dillon 550 can anyone tell me if the powder funnel for a 38 sp 357 mag will do the trick. Can anyone measure theirs.

I casted with 50/50 air cooled wheel weights/ pure and a pinch of tin. I have no idea what kind of bhn that is but I thought I could try water dropping after the powder coating

The oval base was measured on an unsized naked bullet

I just measured my flare plug and it's .353 (Dillon dies ) I pulled a bullet and it isn't swaged at all. The base of the bullet seems oval and measures around 355 to 356 but the bearing surface is...

Should I try a second coat? I just tumble lubed 40 with 2 coats of 45/45/10 to see if it would work better than the powder coating. Sizing after the first coat it hardly touches the 358 sizer. My...

So it's a poor design mold ?

I did slug the barrel in the first gun (p95) . It slugged .355-.356. I haven't slugged this one yet. Mainly because of only leading the second half of the barrel. I figured it was a sign of lube...

I picked up a Lee 124 tl 6 gang mold and tried tumble lubing for a p95 . After a lot of leadingui gave up. Now I picked up a citadel 1911 9 mm I figured I'd try again. The mold drops at .356 to .358...

23 grains of 2400 with a Lee 300 is my accurate load in my raging bull. At 452 they don't fit in a freedom arms

I was leaning toward too hot myself. I don't have problems with my 148 252 and 124 grain molds but almost always with my 300. The sprue plate tends to get so hot I have to slow down quite a bit. Also...

I use a bottom pour. I flux any time I add lead ingots and usually when throwing sprues in. I flux with saw dust and candle wax and I leave the sawdust on top as a barrier. This is the only mold it...

I'm not real new to casting. I've got 4 different molds all Lee. My 452 300 rnfp gc keeps dropping bullets that almost look porous on one side. It looks like it would have dirt in one half of the...

I just got a brand new Rossi 92 and its time to buy a mold. I've been thinking the 429 - 200 RF would be easy on my lead supply. This will be used just for plinking and reduced loads. Will this feed...

I only had plinking in mind. I have several guns and lots of time for hunting

I had plinking in mind. I can load jacketed for hunting if need be.I'm planning on hunting with my raging bull with cast fora couple years anyway. I was thinking something light to conserve my lead...

My new Rossi should be in in a couple days. I about cryed buying j - bullets for it yesterday. Anyway it'll spend it's life shooting tin cans and maybe I'll save some j- bullets for hunting. What Lee...
