I bought my 9mm dies a couple years ago during the "happening" and although I haven't NEEDED it, it would be nice to have sometimes. I would gladly pay the extra few bucks to get the 4 die set. Soft...

I will also go with crimping. I jad the same issue first i loaded cast 38. Some of my bullets, i missed the crimp groove completly and the crimp made the mouth too fat to chamber. Good luck.

no plans to fool around, im still a little fresh, it's just nice to see an honest discussion about the subject. I have asked about it a couple times and got snarked out of the room. just cool to see...

I have never invested in a "lubrasizer" type press. so I was stuck either ALOX or similar or pan-lube. pan-lubing works fine, alox is "okay" in very slow applications like .38spl and heavy 9mm....

sorry to awaken such an old thread. I found someone selling some WC powders and I was just poking around to see what it's good for and fell into this thread. very interesting read MUSTANG, and I...

I gave up on trying to get a perfect alloy and lube and bullet fit etc. I would always get leading, especially in my sloppy barreled Taurus .357. I got the 9mm worked out pretty good as long as using...

A lee 230 with 10.7 grains of 4227 is what has ended up working the best for my 8" barrel. I have used h100 and lil gun, but nothing beats the 4227. I like lil gun for lightweights. Your barrel...

if anyone finds the "golden" ticket for this, upload a pic and share. I think it would be cool for no intended reason

I am really surprised to hear all the negative reviews on this mold. my little pistol has seen at least 5-600 rounds of the LEE 230 and I love em. I will say, I had a hard time keeping the lead under...

here it is, tell me this isn't an awesome set-up. you don't even have to hunt or lead, can just drop into a bowl

I have one I use in my garage in small volume. very small volume( I don't ned lead poisoning class)

just a wooden box 24x24 with a 1/4 steel plate 24" at 45degrees, maybe a bit a more. ...

the 300blackout is quiet, it hits hard, is accurate and is like a dream come true for us boolit casters. I don't think there is any other way to go outside of a rimfire. of course I do hear those 38...

my LEE 4-20 has casted 2-300 pounds of lead in the last year. I think very highly of it. it barely drips and keeps a consistent temperature. I am sure the rcbs is dandy, but for 7 times the price, it...

I have never used gas checks since I only cast for slower pistol usually. but I got a BATOR 22 mold awhile back, what kind of gas checks do I need for that mold? is it plain base or what?

I feel for your problems with the lee mold, but I am having good luck with mine, its finicky with the temp, has to be kept really hot, but get too hot just as quick. just assume that your first 20...

acttually h110 is the only one i can get to cycle with the heavier bullets, i was told otherwise about a zillion times before just trying it on my own, thank god i did. its has been 100% on lee 230s...

i found luck using the lee 230gr powdercoated with 9,6gr H-110 out of 8in barrel, i could never get lil gun to cycle the heavies, i use lil gun for the 165gr amax, kicks like a mule but 100%reliable,...

I have heard that HF black is not a good candidate for the cool whip method. are there any black or even a charcoal grey that is available and appropriate for his method? would also be interested in...

when I have too thick of a PC coating in my 300blk and 9mm I was having similar issues. not the stovepipes, but going into battery. so I started sizing after PC and post-sizing the finished round...

I just did 3k rounds today with the cool whip bowl. long day and totally worth it. thank you to whoever came up with the method.
