I use that same bullet over 18gr 2400 in my 303's. As stated above, neck sizing will sure make the brass last longer.

Another expandable to look into, check out the Grim Reaper's. Very impressive results. Seen two deer shot with them, mine made it 40 yards, my brother's made it about 60 yards. Also worth looking...

I have always loved big bore guns. Call me crazy. Some of us just like it rough. I have used my 338 win mag for elk for years. Got a lever action 45/70 marlin. Instead of a wedding ring, I got...

I stumbled onto this video today, and to the rest of you I'm sure it is old news, but I found it extremely intriguing. Just wondering if any of you have tried it, and what were the results.

It...

Thanks guys. I knew alox was a no no for black powder, just hoping I could find a simple substitute that would work. I also have been dipping my bullets, so I guess I will continue to do so. ...

I know this question must have been asked before. I did a search and read lube recipes until my head started to spin, but never found what I was looking for. So, is there a tumble lube like alox...

go to the surplusrifleforum.com and research the electrolysis tank. I just got done with a francotte. Built a electrolysis tank out of a 5' section of rain gutter. Two end caps. Fill with water...

You got to love a casull. Nothing like it. My wife got me a super redhawk as a wedding gift back in 2000. A few weeks back I got a little crazy, loaded up some 405 grain bullets I resized to .452....

Thanks Edd, kind of what I figured, but it's nice to have someone with more experience confirm my suspicions. Thanks again. I'll just keep doing what I'm doing, casting with two molds (when one...

Ok, I am a newbie. I have done all of the above, the problem I have is quite the opposite, if I am using a large mold, 45 cal 405 gr, or 50 cal 325 gr, the problem I have is the mold gets too hot...

This is actually quite a common occurance with the enfields. Check the headspace, but I will almost bet it is just fine. Enfields are blessed with very generous chambers. The theory was they would...

I loaded some cast bullets over trailboss powder in a 45/70, and they were very, very quiet. Keep them subsonic. Try a min load of trailboss and see if you approve.

I've been wanting a no5 for a while now. I have passed on a couple that were either in poor shape, or bubbad, price was between $350 and 375 on most all of them. I am holding out for the perfect...

Send your wife or girlfriend. I hit every single tire store in Helena, without so much as a single wheel weight. My mother in law found out about my luck, called the exact same tire stores and...

midway has a frankford arsenal electric scale on sale right now for under $20. I figured I'd use it just to verify my beam scale, and perhaps cull out light cast bullets. I have been pleasantly...

My Super Redhawk 454 casull wears a 1.5-4x burris. Couldn't be happier.

Good news. I tried the Lee .312, and it dropped bullets at .314, perfectly round. I haven't had a chance to load any yet, I will post the results when I do. The bullets look promising.

I use h380 powder in my 220 swift. Meters very well, and it's tough to argue with 1/4" groups. I am shooting moly coated 50 grain hornady v max's over a healthy dose of h380 with winchester primers...

I paid $40 for a bucket that weighed 180+ lbs. I also have found a local store that will sell me 100 lbs a month for $20. I have scored nearly as much free as I've paid for. And I just found out...

The front site of my black powder revolver fell off (dang cheap replicas). I put a drop of jb on it and stuck it back on the barrel. That was about 8 years ago. Still holding.

I also used it to...

Howdy all, I'm still pretty new around here. My name is the license plate on the z28 I had restored a few years back, and that's it in the avatar. '79 t-top, 383 stroker, dynoed at 450 horse and...

My nephew has one. Very accurate, neat little gun. It will not extract ammo with steel cases. Other than that, not a bit of problem.

I figure it's not too big of risk. I have a few guns that need a .309 bullet as well. So if it doesn't work, I will size them down for those, and get the .314 lyman mold. I'll post my results.

Just thought I would report on a little success I had. I have just begun casting, and my first mold was a lee mold for conicals for my black powder revolver. I figured I'd start simple. So then I...

:groner: Probably shouldn't have posted that. All you guys will be stealing my weights. Actually, if you are around Anaconda MT, the tire shop there sells 5 gal buckets, filled to overflowing for...
