Have you tried pouring off center of the hole? I have a couple that need to run into the mold rather than direct poor. This will assist in letting additional air out. I find this necessary with some...

Alright folks. We have all the prepackaged samples spoken for. I will likely be running another batch in Lyman #2 in the near future. I will update when I have some more available.
Thank you for...

Thank you all for the interest and support. We have 3 more 100 ct. samples ready to go.

We will be running a 300 grn RNFP and a 405 FP. Once we get some ready, I will be posting them up for trial as well.
Thank you for your willingness to shoot them up.

I have a few samples of a new product that we are considering production of, and I need a few experienced reloaders/shooters of the 35 Remington, Whelen, etc. to run a few to check performance etc. ...

2 or 3 coats on those good looking boolits?

Time in the woods with the family is always the best trophy! Good luck to you and the boys!

Would the same apply with mixing two different powder versions (Say his brick red and hard bronze) etc. prior to mixing with acetone? Or after for that matter?
Thanks.

Raising girls to hunt and appreciate what God has given us is priceless. My 16 year old daughter has 6 big game animals under her belt. A prayer and a promise over the animal similar to your...

Your best bet is to slug your barrel to get its true sized. For your .41, you could also try getting samples of a couple that he offers for the .41 (.410, .411, .412) I am guessing the .411 or .412...

Looking for data / input on shooting the 247 grn FP out of my 30-06 Savage. I have both hardball and Lyman #2 alloy.
Thanks

Because I had the set before I got my Marlin, I shoot the Magma 240 grn. SWC. Shoots well as cast (fat bored Marlin). Accurate running slow or fast. Just make sure you slug your bore before you...

I bet Tom at Accurate Molds could clone it if that version is not available. As many of you know, Tom's quality is top notch.
Forum: Leverguns
Tom's quality is not in question for sure. I am curious if there are any performance differences with his cloned profile. Thinking of having him cut a flat based version to run with Hi-Tek coating in...
As the title says, I am looking for any experience with Tom's RCBS clone. I run Magma machines, and he cuts the 36-210B and 36-210T (for short throated guns) as clones to the RCBS version. I know he...

Alright ..... You guys confirmed my inner voice. It will be on its way soon. I will definitely post some pics and progress reports. I am needing to order a mold for it. I know the RCBS 200 FN is...

It is Ballard rifling, and irons. I already have a couple hundred pieces of brass as my buddy has a 70's RC model that we have been prepping to load for.
Forum: Coatings and Alternatives
Your alloy may be too soft at 20-1. Would you be willing to share load data and what the bullets were sized to? The 45 is a low pressure round, and is generally pretty forgiving. Also, 2 or 3 coats...

I have an opportunity at purchasing an early (1950) Marlin 336A in 35 Rem (waffle top). It is not drilled/tapped for scope. It appears to be in sound condition, with only a couple small blems on one...
Nice! Let's see some coated and a range report please!!! I have been thinking of this myself.
Thanks

Lots of planning to do before you get here for sure. Whatever weapon you choose to utilize, just know it's limitations and be skillful with it. As far as clothing. Layers is the way to go out here....
Forum: Coatings and Alternatives
Bob,
Your reading is correct. Sizing the bullets burnishes and closes the pores of the alloy. This does significantly effect the adhesion abilities of the Hi-tek coating. You can coat, size, then...

I found that 5-1-8 was a little thick with the liquid black. 5-1-9 or 10 worked better with either catalyst. Remember to shake the color jug, and then shake it some more, and just when you think...
Yep. Hardline is good to go. Derek and Mike are stand up guys that have gone above and beyond the norm for customer service. My experiences have been nothing but outstanding.
