I bought a Colt that I thought was a 1917 (advertised by Hudson Sporting Goods as that in 1957). When the green Railway Express truck brought it, it was an apparently unfired, blued, mail train New...

I hear you Blanket. I too have been snowed in and it has been getting down to around zero at night. I have been trying to "straighten up" my loading room. Found a one pound, yellow and red Hodgdon...

Unless the bullet is so soft that that load would lead in a Magnum case, should be no problem. I have fired thousands of them.

This will probably bring a chuckle. This was my first attempt years ago to make an electronic powder dispenser. It actually worked pretty well. The heart was a discarded Litton microwave oven. It was...

Me too lobogunleather, same experience. They can really get jammed in the carrier if they are too long.

Bedbugbilly : I started this post. I was not trying to bash Lee, I have a lot of their (older) moulds, which have served me well. I was only asking if my experience, lately, was unique. Since I...

Between me, my son and my buddy, we have bought seven Lee moulds in the last three months. Only three didn't have to be sent back (or should have been sent back)! I couldn't get a picture to load,...

Why don't we all write a letter to Rossi asking that they make a run of .41's? The .41 is a WONDERFUL caliber, and handy as the opposable thumb!

Trapperscott, I would love to have the same rifle. Please keep us informed if you decide to do it!

Well said Recluse, the classifications are brilliant. But,

I cast my first boolit in about 1959. Since then, I have poured literally tons of Pb. I have enough guns to make Nancy Pelosi very...

This may be old news, but I have read about how easy it is to strip the die retaining nut threads on the 450 (and I think the 4500 also), so I have been extra careful with the three that I have to...

I just bought a dual drum rotary tumbler from Harbor Freight today for SS pin tumbling of small batches of BP cases. Everybody on here in the past said it comes with spare belts (and they are...

Bayou52,

Yes, you are doing exactly what I do. But, of the six punches I have, every one came with the threads bottomed out, immovable, and too long to adjust to a comfortable position. That is...

I didn't see a thread where anybody else has said this. Please forgive if this is old news.

I have couple of older RCBS hand priming tools without the primer tray. I have used them since they...

Elkins, What is LLA glue?

Thanks

I also think the Commander .45 QACP is the one to carry, mine is a Ruger1911 Commander. My woods, sagebrush, fourwheeler, dirt bike gun is a 3" S&W Model 60 Stainless +P .38 special with the...

No lower level Federal Judge was ever elected or confirmed, they are political appointees. They are a major part of the problem in America, and NOWHERE in the Constitution are they authorized.

Mike,

I am afraid the two drilled holes would only work with needle nose pliers if the piston was stuck fairly near the top. Often however, the piston is stuck at the bottom when someone ran the...

Because I don't like to file a meplat on a round nose boolit, that 200 Grn. RF is my favorite boolit in my 92.

I use my 30-06 M die for my .30 WCF's.

Joe, Thanks for the tip. I had planned on shooting them in my Win. '94 ( and maybe my 340 Savage), but when I got over into Holy Black and Brass, I realized that at least the Pyrodex is really nasty...

Thanks Nobade and Joe! What do you dump the cases into after you fire them?

I have a pound or two, each, of Pyrodex, Clean Shot, Clear Shot and Black Canyon that I would like to shoot up in plinking cast loads in the .30WCF. Back when I was into black powder, we were very...

I have 2400 that is about forty years old. I have carefully stored it, and it is just fine.

Over the years I have had some old 4831 start to DUST, after being over forty years old, but NOTHING like those first pictures! Mine probably enjoyed the best possible storage conditions, while the...
