    Thanks for the tip; can't seem to find much more than vague references and the odd photo about this piece. It really does appear to be a combination of designs morphed together to make a nice, unique...

    Yes they do, for a good price as well. I've been using lee molds for a couple of years and am quite happy with them. I get my lead from a local tyre place that trades wheel weights for beer, as In...

    She finally arrived late last week from the dealer. It will be a few more weeks before I'm allowed to pick it up, which gives me time to start sorting handloads. It appears to be in very good...
