I have an NOE 360-154-WFN-AN1 4 cavity PB I'd like to sell. It was only used to make about 200 bullets. It is absolutely perfect and like new. $60 to your door, assuming your door isn't in Djibouti...

I figured the only thing in powder paint is polyester resin and pigment so what exactly can go bad, right? Well for the last year or so I've been chugging right along using a Kawasaki green powder...

Like others here, I too use the Lee 358-125-RF. It has proven to be very accurate in .38 Specials in my GP100. I also have the 148 wadcutter, the discontinued 150 SWC, the 358-158RF and the 158 SWC...

Beautiful rifle. I've always wanted one but the closest I ever got was an RWS 48. Maybe one day.
Forum: Cast Boolits
All went well. Sized at .358 it works just fine in .38 Special in my GP100s with 3.8 grains of HP38, as a matter of fact that combination is probably the most accurate load I've ever used in my...
I'm wanting to get back into shotshell reloading. Could you please direct me to these new <$100 machines?

I'm headed to the range today to try the 358-125-RF in a couple different 9mm handguns. I use this bullet sized to .358 in .38 Special and the dummy I loaded in 9mm at that size dropped right in the...

Powder coated some Lee 358-158-RF projectiles and now to test them in various loadings in a Contender carbine.
It looks like Ruger has resurrected the SP101 9mm. Now just as soon as they make a 9mm GP100, the line will form behind me.

Forum: Swaging
On a semi-related note I experimented with powder half jackets (or half powder jackets?) or more accurately, powder coating just the bearing surfaces and base. No particular reason for doing so. I...
Forum: Swaging
Yep, yep and yep! The older Speer manuals even warned about this and admonished about reducing charges with the half jackets.
Doesn't the Lyman 358665 also have a bevel base???
Forum: Special Projects
I'll second that. One of my favorite guns. Fun and cheap to shoot and the nephews love it.
I know from experience that the Lee 500 3R works and that the current round flat nose Lee projectiles DO NOT, at least when they are seated to the crimp groove. As for if other makers' molds of the...

7 currently but at times in the past probably as many as 15.

Never, ever, ever seen solar work out in a situation like this. I'd have to see the results at the end of the payoff to actually believe it. I just don't believe their ROI calculations...I'm...
I use the 459-500-3R in my No.1 and in an Encore Katahdin not because I especially want the snot kicked out of me but because it's one of the few projectiles that will chamber in those rifles. The...
I wish Lee still made these...heck there are a lot of things I wish Lee still made.

This is a very neat process but unless you have the tools and the abilities to do it yourself the costs of having it done are just too much. You could just buy an MGM barrel in your choice of...

I have a Lee 358-158-RF that I really like except for the beveled base. Figuring it would be easier to just get a new mold than mess with having one modified I ordered an NOE 360-154-WFN. I'm not...
Forum: Cast Boolits
Ahh ha, so it's not just me! I've ordered the 500 grain mold and will try it since it looks to have a sharper ogive. I'll also try the 405 again seated to where it'll chamber. I think you are right...
Forum: Cast Boolits
Thanks for the kind offer to send some of your bullets but I just ordered one of the Lee 5003R molds and I'm betting the nose profile of that bullet will allow it to chamber. Even if I were able to...
Forum: Cast Boolits
Thanks Larry! I've already sent an email to PT&G asking but since you've already done this exactly which reamer did you use? I see they offer a 45-70 throating reamer and what they call their Uni...
Forum: Cast Boolits
It is indeed an interesting situation. It's obvious that the ogival profile of this bullet is rounder or fuller than say the factory Winchester 405s. It is visually obvious that the bullet Winchester...
