So just the other day I ordered an antique 1874 11mm French revolver and it came in the mail yesterday. I had remembered reading this article a while back and it got me to thinking....this .44...

I just had an email from the gentleman I am buying the pistol from. I asked him to measure the cylinder for me. He said that it was 1 1/4 inches. That would make it the short 9.4 and not the...

Oh no, you CAN do it...and it is legal to do so, but if it says "32-20" on the brass and the police dont know what a 32-20 looks like as compared to an 8mm Lebel, I can guarantee you they will seize...

One thing I forgot to mention was a serious advantage for us Canadians for removing the headstamp markings is for instance on an 8mm Lebel, although Fiocchi does produce ammunition for it, it is...

Point Taken!

Yes I did realize that there were 2 (actually 3!) different 9.4 Dutch only after I started doing some work on this, so now I am at a standstill. Yes I think that is the mold I will go with from...

I don't think it is a dangerous as it looks, the case is held tight onto the steel punch, it is hard to see that it is there, but it is. My hand is touching the brass yes just to keep it from...

That is exactly it, since these are rifle brass and I am using them in a pistol, the large pistol primer sits exactly where it is supposed to be once the head has been thinned

Little did I know today that I would be doing up yet another project on here. It all started today when I found out that I will soon be proud owner of a Dutch 1894 revolver in 9.4mm! So like any...

Yes I know this is an old thread.....but the info is still pertinent today. Do you have any pics of this set up? I just cannot picture it in my head. Probably seems easy to you but for those of us...

Just got back from the range, thought I would give a little update on this....the rounds worked fairly well, shot 20.... they grouped about 1.5 inches at 50 yards. It was foggy this morning so I...

Yep, 243 is def longer than 308 when you reform them. I use a Lee Case trimmer in my drill press. That is the beauty of the Lee case trimmer, no further measuring necessary, it takes all the guess...

Yes I know this is an old thread, I just did not want to start a new one. Whenever I am at the range I pick up anything I can and usually find a use for it somehow. I find some of my best .308 brass...

Yes, I think the key is to make sure that whether you are shooting boolits or jacket bullets that they have been re-sized. It just swages most of the rifling off which will keep the gasses from...

So, after a VERY long cold winter (worse than normal) up here in Canada, spring has finally sprung! The better weather has finally got me to the range! I was not planning on any new projects but one...

I haven't done any 7.62x39 pulldowns YET for the Ross, but it is only list of projects to do this summer for sure! I have done that for some cheap plinkers (when I haven't had anything better to do)...

You know, originally I doubted that this rifle had been re-chambered or modified, but after reading that article on http://www.303british.com/id20.html it has me thinking a whole lot. The dimensions...

I hate flogging a dead horse, but I thought you might be interested in seeing a pic of just how "generous" of a chamber my Ross Rifle has. It is well known that there are many different specs to...

Sounds sort of scary to me actually! It is bad enough using an arbor press on a live primer, I really dont think I would want to have a moving drill bit that creates heat and friction anywhere near...

Yep, it is there........that is where I said "wear eye protection". Glad you all are liking it though, it has been a lot of fun to do.....not really sure where to go from here! lol

Thanks! Not sure about where you are, but here, Berdan primers are very hard to find and if/when you do find them they are almost 1.5 times as much as a regular large rifle primer. It shouldnt...

Ok, so it has been a while since the mad scientist in me has done any experimentation into the world of the unknown after my last post on Super Reduced Loads for my .303 British...

At the risk of highjacking my own thread yet again, just did a few further tests with the .308 Winchester. Instead of a Large Rifle Primer, I used a Winchester Large Pistol primer. Yes I know they...

I agree wholeheartedly with Sensai. just chuck the Lee case length gauge and trimmer in your drill press and hold the case in the Lee Case holder with a handle, it makes super quick work out of them.

What type of calibers/guns will you be reloading cast for?
