Good to hear from you, HP! Glad you haven't given up on perfecting (or not) the project. I hope the success continues as it is a cool idea with great benefits for rifle casters/shooters.

Hey HollowPoint, where have you been? Have you made any progress with this adventure? Been a couple months without any update, or did you just abandon the project?
Thanks,
Tom
I have just found this database and I am blown away! This is the most incredible collection of information in one place that I have EVER seen. My sincere thank you and more for all the folks...
Hamish, that is good information also. Seems to me I did test the 2015 load from the published Accurate load data but I lost my notes I had during my last move so I don't have my test data any...
Hey Wallnutt I appreciate the info. I did try the H-4227 in brass cut down to fit the cylinder of the Dan Wesson using the 245 and 17gr of powder. It shot fairly well and took down the rams with...
Mr. Max, thanks for that reference to the Alliant MP300. I have shot a lot of H-110 and Accurate #9 in the Max years back shooting IHMSA with my Dan Wesson's using the RCBS 200gr 35 cal boolit and...
Thanks to everyone for your replies and advise! I am aware (painfully) of T/C and their sewer pipe throats on the Max barrels and a cerrosafe cast of this one proved to show how careless they were...
Hey guys, did a search and didn't quite find what I was looking for. Plan to load a 245 grain gc cast in the Max for use in a T/C 14' barrel. Perhaps 357Maximum has some insight on this as I have...

Hey MaryB, Did you read my medical records or what? I am dealing with almost the exact same issues for the last 18 years except I have had 3 surgeries including a three level fusion. None of the...

Reading this thread I seem to remember reading various places that the barrel restriction in revolver barrels was mostly caused from the threading of the barrel and also to a degree from the...

I just found this thread and have been reading intently. Sounds like one hell of a cool project and I commend you for your bullheadedness to keep on keepin' on!
As a budding (and over the hill)...

Anyone heard from the OP regarding this boolit and load? Sure wish they would post the results of testing. I have that mould and have not yet cast any. I may be casting this weekend and I will...
Forum: Cast Boolits
I would melt a sample of it and cast several air cooled boolits. Get a hardness tester or find someone who would be willing to test them for you. I would think that you could at least find out how...

Hi R.M., not a tumble lube, just a standard type two lube groove design.
I think I should have posted that I was going to use these in my .460 Rowland. I misstated in my first post that I was...
Forum: Cast Boolits
I really appreciate the info! We all know that boolit fit is king, but I was not too impressed with that tiny lube groove. I want to hard cast these for my .460 Rowland as a heavy bullet stopper.

Hi all, looking for input regarding the above mentioned mould. I was given this mould from a friend. It is brand new but I have a question. The lube groove(s) look awfully small and shallow and...
I received a new Lee 2-cavity .425-255 mold about a month ago. It has new markings on it. Gone is the number on the side that meant nothing. Now, this one has the "425-255" neatly engraved in the...

I have to drop off the order list. This is taking way too long to get anywhere. Thank you.
