I have used this for a number of years, and am down to 5 sticks. I went to order some more but he is no longer in business. I tried some lube from someone else, but not liking the results. What have...

A couple of weeks back I was teaching a friend the basics of casting. We started to have a problem with one of my mods that I have not seen before. This was with a Lee 90310 mold, a 200Gr SWC, six...

So I was sizing a bunch of 45 boolits the other day when I started to get a little wax pad or pill on the bottom of each boolit. It is about 1/8" thick or more. I checked the depth that the boolit...

I am currently shooting 45 ACP with 5.2 gr of Titegroup with a 200gr and CCI300 primers. I can;t remember the COL off the top of my head but can look it up if someone wants to know. This has been the...

I sent my mold back to Lee with a letter explaining what was going on. I also had a Lee single stage press that I owned since I was a kid that had the linkage between the ram and the handle that...

So I called the factory and talked to them, and they said to send it back in. The guy didn;t seem to bat an eye, and I tried the honey approach. I am going to send a few sized and unsized boolits for...

Hi,

I have a Lee 90310 mold (452 - 200 SWC) mold that has been working great. I got a second 90310 mold so that I could drop boolits from one mold while the other one cools. I measured the...

Hi,

I am looking for some load recommendations for 38 special. I am using Titegroup with CCI550s. I am using a 125gr LRNFP. I have seen recommendations for 3.2 - 3.8gr and seems that 3.5gr is...

So yesterday i got out a Mosin Nagant that my son's friend had some troubles with. He was saying that he could only shoot a 12" group at 50'. Not the best... So I was looking at it, and the barrel...

I have been really happy with Titegroup for 45, and just recently 38 special. I have also used AA#2, both are clean. AA#2 will meter easier on a Lee measure, but if I don't go too fast, it is not a...

I have been using a 6 cavity Lee mold for a few months and have been happy with it. I recently got another of the same mold so that I could get two molds going, and use one, and then while I was...

Well... I am hooked!

I just shot it this week. It was like being a little kid waiting for Christmas. I had to wait to get some dies to load some rounds. I found 4.5 gr of Titegroup using a CCI 550...

I have also found that Safariland's #10 solvent does a really good job of disolving the lead. You can actially see chuncks of lead coming loose from the barrel.

I was using almost straight lead. Once I added in some superhard from rotometals and some tin, my problems went away.

So, being new to casting, I have been using mostly straight lead for my boolits. I have probably run 3 - 5k rounds thru since I started casting. Well, the lead has been building up faster that I have...

This weekend I was sizing a batch of boolits, and I had an issue with a part that broke on my 4500 sizer. I was able to do a temp fix to finish up with what I needed to shoot the next day. The...

Hi!

I just got a my first revolver. I picked up a Ruger GP100 yesterday and am looking forward to shooting it. I am looking for feedback and wisdom from those that have found loads that work well...

So tonight, we mined most of the lead at our indoor range. THe crew turned out to be me, myself, and I. I guess some of the more experienced casters were excited to have some young blood interested...

Does anyone have any experience that they can share about the specifics? I am particularly interested in loads with a CCI 550 primer using a fast burning powder. If you have any knowledge to share,...

I have a wonderful wife. for my birthday, She got me a new Lyman 4500. I got it set up last night and started working on a bucket of 2500 boolits I had cast a week ago. Once I got everything...

So yesterday I took this back, and they traded it for lead. As we were picking out lead, they had a stack of bars that were stamped 50% lead / 50% tin. They didn't seem to care, I told them it was...

I have been buying lead from a local scrap yard. They just classify it as hard and soft, based on the sound it makes when it hits the concrete. Well, I was melting some down, and in the pot, it...

I have been using mostly large pistol primers for loading 45 ACP. I am using a 200gr SWC bullet with 5.0 gr of titegroup. I have a bunch of CCI 500 and CCI 550 primers. does anyone know the changes...

So last night I shot my first cast bullets. I am using a Springfield 1911 in 45 ACP. This is a GI model that has had a trigger job and works really nice. I shot about 250 - 300 rounds, and got...

I think that I I may have used a little too much, we will see this weekend. I will check the accuracy, and take notes on how it goes so I can figure out what is going to work best.
