I ran out of boolits. So tomorrow I will have to go out to the garage to my casting table and get busy.

I am 78, and have been reloading since 1977, I still love it. 80% of my reloading is with cast boolits that are powder coated.

Good moening all, just a few thoughts about P/Cing boolits. I started taking lessons from Elvisammo a long time ago. (thank you internet). What I have settled on and use exclusivly is Ford Light...

RCBS A2, Lee APP, Lee Reloader (before it was called Breech Lock) and Classic Cast 4 hole Turret.
I'm considering adding the new Six Pack Pro.

I reinstalled the RCBS in line bullet feeder to the turret on my Lee Classic Cast Turret press. I am determined to get it to work.
Forum: Cast Boolits
Took the Factory crimp die out of the turret and moved the seater die to it's place. Installed RCBS bullet feed die now I will seat and crimp with the seater die (Old school). Speeding up process.

This is my all time favorite, the holes it makes in my paper targets are totally cool (like I used a hole punch).
this is the H&G #68 from Mihec.

I have a Magma Star lube/sizer, but have only done .309 150gr gas checked bullets for my 30-06 with it. Then I used Lee Liquid Alox to lube my pistol (9mm and .45) , and it works great. It leaves a...

After I get my morning stuff all taken care of, I'm going to load 100 9mm rounds while listening to some good ole 70's music.

I've been using Lee 358-105 SWC, and have been liking it a lot, but wonder if the 358-140 SWC will work as well, I also use the Lee TL 356-124 2R (ease of casting) powder coated just barley .357". ...

I picked up 1000 pieces of 9 mm this morning, came home and set up the APP with the 4 tube case feeder, step one deprime and get ready for the wet tumbler, and even with a whole bunch of...

Finished up a 3000 round project of 9mm with Oregon Trail boolits. Whew, glad that is done
Now I need to go shoot them so I can do it all over again. I am addicted!
I need a little advice here, I have been using and enjoying the Lee 358-105 SWC, in my 9mm XDs, but sizing them can be a little tricky. I am just wondering if anyone has used the Lee 358-140 SWC in...

When my LL Alox gets thick, I just microwave for 10-12 seconds and adjust from there.

I tore down my Lee Turret cleaned lubed all moving parts and changed over form 9mm to 10mm.

When I started loading for my 45ACP, I was given a 3 die set and had to master seating and crimping on one die. That worked well (single stage press) for many years. Then I went crazy and bought a...

Try it you'll like it!

My son came over and we loaded up 100 rounds of 10mm. He set up the press and pulled the handle. We had a great time.
