“Harder than Chinese algebra”. That’s is just awesome!!! Not sure there could be any better or any more clearly understood description.

Thanks for the input. I’ve done the epoxy trick when needing a top punch. I think I’ll give Redding a call and start from there. May just order some extra seating plugs to modify if need be. I am...

Loading 280 Rem, but I suspect this to be true for many calibers. The stem in the seating die being designed for the long tapering point on jacket is causing a ring of deformation on the nose of my...

I’ll take that .287. PM inbound

I’ll take that Lee 575 minie ball off your hands, pm coming

That is an interest weight recommendation for sure. I may have, well really want, to mess with the paper patching. I played with it in a 45/70 and black powder years ago but never committed to...

Thank you, I know of the technique and have done it before. Just didn’t realize it had a name. Does make for a nice soft nose type bullet

Beerd, a Bruce B soft point? Please elaborate as I am not familiar with this. Sounds quite interesting

Beltfed the 45/70 has been my go to since about age 17 and will always remain so. A PP Boolit in your 358 Win, now that a neat idea.

Thanks for the welcome quilbilly

Those 2 pennies are what I’m looking for so Thank you. This 280 is a new project for me to play with casting for. Typically when chasing bear in the past I’ve always reached for the 45/70 and...

Don’t think I’ll have to make any changes. I’ve got Lyman molds 287308 and 287405 to work with. I also just found a RCBS-168 mold that’s available, just have not made that happen. Thanks

Thinking about big game loads ( Elk, Mule Deer, occasional Black Bear ) and cast bullet performance
Cartridges aside, 7mm cast at roughly 2000 FPS.
What bullets ( mold make and part number of you...

Pm sent on 280 Rem brass

Thank for the info on what works for you. I certainly agree that what works is different with each rifle. Just looking at different offerings of information to use as a ball park idea of where to...

I’ll certainly look into those powders. The 5744 is something I see often recommended. Out of curiosity what bullet/alloy combinations have you been happiest with and at what velocities?

Hi all, so I have been on a casting hiatus for about 10 years. Finally life is allowing me to pick up this wonderful part of shooting again so I dug out all of my old equipment, well atleast what I...

I’ll take that Lyman 287308 if it’s still available. Pm following this
