I had some that I had lubed with grease but I wanted to powder coat. I put them in a pan with water and dish soap and brought them to a boil on the hot plate. I then rinsed them with clear water...

This is a good time of year to buy one used then sell it in the spring. You should be able to turn a pretty good profit. At least that is how it works in our part of the world.

I just wanted to let everyone know that I did place and receive my order from Red River Rick. It was a very smooth transaction and I could not be happier with the sprue plates and cam levers that I...

These are the 9mm that cast during my last session.

Hopefully you can see the numbers. Those in the right hand bottom corner are the number of boolits in that weight range. I had about 20...

I did not mean to get off on precision handgun shooting. I just thought it was interesting how much weight powder coating adds to a boolit. Last night I weighed all of the 45ACP boolits that I cast...

The shot is 7.5 as I recall. Actually, all of the pictured lead was 102.5lbs and cost $25.00. The other $1.00 paid for two small plant buckets of COWW (maybe 10-15lbs total). The guy used to cast...

I use Lizard Litter from the pet shop. It is walnut hulls ground small enough that it does not hang in the flash hole. To that I add one cap full of a car polish and one cap full of mineral...

I am one of those OCD guys that weighs every boolit after casting and separates into groups + or - .5gr. I tend to think that if I shoot boolits of roughly the same weight I will get better groups...

Garage sale find. I really hate to brag, but not that much.
All of the weights and ingots show to be COWW using the pencil hardness method. Tipped the scale at 102.5lbs. Paid $26.00. ...

Thanks Red River Rick. I did find it in the spam folder and took care of that. I am shooting you an email.
Thanks

Looks like it. Thanks. Just impatient. I got mad Sunday when my cam lever broke and I want a new one now.

Where were you able to find the "Cast Bullet for Beginners and Experts" book? I got the book "From Ingot to Target" but the other one will not download.

Both of my M1 Carbines love Sierra's 110 gr Varminter HP over IMR 2400. Insanely accurate.

On all of my rifles I just hold the trigger as I close the bolt. That releases the firing pin without dry firing on most rifles. I have read all kinds of stuff from "DON'T EVER DRY FIRE" to...

Call your local news station. See if you can get the local liberals to do a story on animal cruelty and/or neglect. Liberals can be good for something.
Forum: Hunting with CB's
The link that you sent does say that a hunting license is required, so I stand partially corrected. However, I called TP&W and was told that the regs were changed in about Oct last year and a...

You might want to check this out. I have always read my "Texas Hunting Guide" to say that feral pigs are not a game animal and no license is needed to hunt them. There is no season and no bag limit...

The other thing that is so nice about the Sinclair Primer Pocket Uniformer is that it cuts all of your primer pockets to the correct depth for the correct size primer. This makes priming the brass...
I use a RCBS press mounted tool on all of the crimped primers pockets, but all of my brass gets a Sinclair Primer Pocket Uniformer in the pocket prior to each reload. This is a very easy to get the...
