the Smith N frames are my all time favorite revolvers. Nice snag on that one.. I have it's slightly uglier cousin of around the same time frame, a 28-2. Beautiful shooters they are.

Thanks Mr. Gibson for researching this. I've done this in the past only on 45acp and the reason being was to match Federals largish flash holes by enlarging...

I shoot Lee 158's in a S&W 39 fairly often. I use around ~3 grains of Unique in it. Don't recall the COAL off the top of my head, but it wouldn't help you anyway, Just do as others have shown you and...

washed and skimmed my walnut media and drying it as we speak. I like to add Lemi-Shine right into the walnut media as well, so I done that too.

Not a fan of the action type, but kudo's to a superb looking rifle!
The Walnut contrasting with the SS is stunning.

Finally got to test them out. Now, this was just a comparison on residue left of the PP and Unique.

It's the same way with mine. I do have all my coffee container brass can's labeled though.... small steps.

today in the reloading room I am cutting down some 30.06 brass (scavenged) for some more rattler busters for .45acp.
Forum: Cast Boolits
Will do. Should (the plan is, anyway) get to shoot some this weekend, perhaps even tomorrow if the planets align! :)

Loaded 100 .45acp with a, new to me, Power Pistol load.
After many years of just using Unique I wanted to venture out and try some PP as Unique is scarce, and I wanted to see how much cleaner...
Yep,Big hands or a high hold will cause that. Bob it or Beaver it and the meat of your thumb will thank you.

Lotta people poo-poo the R1, but I gotta say they're an exceptional value. The one I have shoots and functions just as well as my much more expensive and highly modded Colt. My only gripe with mine...
