This isn't my thread, though I replied to it. Quite interesting, does anyone here know anything about RCBS marked barrels? I'd guess it was an RCBS house gun that they used for various testing.

The 2 largest sections of the hole seem to have a seamless transition on the bottom, and a pronounced step on the top. I bet that is intentional, as it's too clean to be a happy accident of sloppy...
A good mould that is useful to the recipient surely is the gift that keeps on giving.

I didn't have any idea, thanks for sharing and for the explanations all.
Thanks for this conversation. I have one of the moulds in question, but have yet to cast with it. I'm looking forward to seeing what everyone has to say about it so I have an idea as to what to...

I didn't know that, thank you kindly for that information. I fish with hellgrammite lures sometimes.
That's a well loved RC, thanks for sharing. I wish there was a post or article that detailed the differences between the II and III, and the current IV.

I'm still going with the Buck 192... after all this time, though I'd sure like to have a TRC Apocolypse. Man that's a good looking knife.

This is in the prepper forum... made me think of a slick way to trap bunnies during hard times. An interesting story, thank you or sharing. We have cottontails in the yard, and don't normally grow...

I've seen one that went $2100 on GB, but I didn't look at the listing closely.
Many people generically refer to bullets intended for 44 Special and 44 Magnum as .429 diameter. The range of useful common sizes varies from .429 up to .432 in diameter, with .433 and .434 being...
I really like the RCBS 45-201-SWC for 45 Automatic. I never tried it in the Colt. It was accurate and very reliable in a Springfield Armory Mil-Spec.

Awesome, congratulations! They are worth about twice what an 1894 in 357/44/45 are. They weren't popular and not many were made. I've always got my eyes out to find one on the shelf somewhere at a...
Thank you very much for the information. That's very interesting.
Forum: Rimfire Area
Shooting offhand takes practice. A pellet rifle will directly translate to offhand or field positions with a 22 Rifle. Unless of course, you can shoot your 22's as often as desired. My advice is to...
Whoa, that's some old stuff. What year range is that from and what guns were 38 Long Rimfire intend for? Was that the conversion of the cap and ball revolvers, or stuff like the old single shot...
Perhaps a various diameter chamber plug for filling the bore with solvent?

Awesome. I'm glad for you, seems like a heck of a lot of fun. Something to look into for when I visit Florida to see the wife's sister. I plan to do a mess of Bass fishing while I'm there.
Thanks...

Thank you for sharing those tips. All are great, but the clay cup idea will be very handy.

Wow! That is one heck of a compliment. It would be an honor, thank you!
Some very intersting theories here. The vent lines look normal to me for a 4 cavity mould.
