I've used 16 grains of Unique in my guide gun behind a Lee 405, and 340 grain. Both will stack the bullets on top of each other at 50 yards. Recoil is about like a 20 ga or less. They do have a lot...

You will probably have to run them through a push through sizing die. I shoot 5gr of red dot behind mine.

I forgot to add, my maxi's are lubes with liquid also. I know it's not traditional but it works well.

My Traditions deer hunter small game in 32cal, 1:48 twist loves the TC maxi. I load 25 grains of 3f clean shot, and can shoot a long time without having to swab. It's unfortunate it's been...

I use a 350 grain Ranch Dog. I do gascheck mine. I have used the Lee 340, and 405 with Unique, and had no leading issues. The 350 I use R-7 and is my hunting Boolit, tumble lubes with liquid also and...

I still use our old 96 Honda 300 FW 4x4.lt does great on the driveway, and has been paid for for along time.

I cast 350 grain Ranch dogs out of wheel weights. I don't know how fast they are going with 46 grains of R-7, but they group great at 100 yards out of my 1895 GBL. Everything I've shot hasn't taken...

I have a first year manufacturer 9422M that I'll never sell. Wish I had a matching 9422to go with it.
It's been a long time since I've shot any Lymans, but I've had better luck with a rifled tube, than a fully rifled barrel. The rifled tube doesn't rip off the petals from the shot cup. I think I was...

I have the Ranch Dog gas checked version of that. It puts everything down fast and is accurate with a dose of RL-7. In my GBL

I'm a fan of Reloader 7, shoot it behind a 350 grain Ranch Dog.

I've got a Henry carbine in 357 and use the Ranch dog 175 gc mold over Lil gun. That mold was designed for the Marlin. I've got to seat them just below the crimp grove to get them to feed without a...
I have 2 of them, and they are solid. One on a m48a, and one for m39 nagant. They actually bored my rifle for the pattern for the m39, and gave me the mount for free. I don't think you would be...

For what it's worth, I have to glue mine on before sizing. I have a Ranch Dog 350 gr mold, and Hornady checks won't stay on even after running through a .460 push through sizer. A dab of super glue...

My 16" stainless has a tight spot under the rear sight dovetail. Shoots ok with j word stuff, but boolits tend to lead up. I'm going to try fire lapping one of these days.

I have a first year manufacture that I bought off my cousin when I was 15 for 90.00. I'm 60 now, and it gets used from time to time. I know it's quite effective on backyard coyotes, with Winchester...
I have one of those, and I like it. Haven't loaded any 327's yet, still playing with 32 mags. Just looking for a woods carry gun.

You may need a faster burning powder. 4350 is a no no in a gas gun like a Garand. Maybe the pressure at the port is too high due to the longer burn time of the powder.Just my 2 cents worth.

I've used 19gr accurate 9 under that boolit in my 16" Rossi and did shoot a pig with it. Right through both shoulders from about 50 yds. I would do even better if mine didn't have a constriction...

10 great blue dot is my go to load for the .357. Not the most potent, but plenty of juice.
Forum: Hunting with CB's
I will be following this with interest. I have a 4" sp101, not legal in Ohio for deer, but I can use it on anything else.
Blue dot is my favorite accuracy powder for my 357s as well.
I stumbled on 10gr of blue dot 25-30 years ago. For a mid range load it has been the most accurate load I have used.
I've used a lot of red dot@ 5gr for the Lee 230 TC. Nice shooting load out of my M&P, and XDS.
Got one in 9mm back in the 90's for my Wife. Still have it, and the last time she shot it, she took the head off of a snake in the back yard with 1 shot. The head was no bigger than my thumb. It...

My Bengimin nitro piston .22 has a built in suppressor on the barrel. It is quieter than a suppresd .22. It has plenty of power for what needs taken care of. Squirrels, coons, possums, it doesn't...
