I've heard that same rumor...but can't verify it. Googled it but nothing came up.
I have a NEI mold that would not accept any handles that I have. So I took an old set of Lee handles that were pretty well used and filed them down to fit. It pretty much ruined those handles for...
Yes, but a lot of us are right there with you. You have some treasures just keep adding to them.

I bought a 35 about 15 years ago at a local farm auction. I paid $300. There wasn't many who wanted it but me. Glad to see my choice has gone up in value. But the value of the $ has slipped alot too.

Go to their web page, get the phone number and call and hopefully Al will answer the phone. He seems to work 7 days a week so if you keep calling sooner or later he will answer. Have your mold info,...

Your son did very well and he will remember this for the rest of his life. And you did very well yourself as you taught him the basics. It's something the two of you can always share and remember.

I have 4 of them and use RCBS or Lyman top punches. The place where Saeco top punch screws in will take a RCBS or Lyman punch, all you have to do it put a gob of lube in the hole to keep the punch...

I look at it different than most everyone else. I enjoy making bullets just for the joy of being alone and doing something I like to do. Cost doesn't enter into it. I have several hundred pounds of...

I have decided my gun and caliber will be a Rossi 92 in 480 Ruger. Always wanted one and about 10 days ago I found one on Gunbroker. It now rests against the headboard of my bed. I have made several...

I only used copper sulfate to remove zinc and the results were that the lead had joined with the zinc and the copper sulfate to make the final product malleable and removed most of the zinc. Don't...

I have Windows 10 and can get some things on the screen but find the site hard to navigate.
I like 5744 and Shooters World Buffalo rifle but can't find either...anywhere.
I paid $223 for it with shipping. Invoice is dated3/18/2014, so what is it worth today?
I just checked Buffalo Arms web page and they only list one that is 230 volt but does not say Waage on it. I found the box mine came in and it has the receipt and some other paperwork.
