Heck, if you have milk and peaches eat that and throw the dang coon away. I have had it, was ok and would do if I were hungry. Perspective is about right.
Picked up a barrel in 50 AK and need some load ideas. Shooting cast in bullet range from 350 g to 700 g. Lots of choices thanks to bullshop. Any help is appreciated.

Thanks to the Op for this post and idea. I made 4 of these molds and poured some DARR into it. Works like a charm

I had a handi with 1 in 12, it shot lite bullets like a champ (under .5). If I got above 55 it would start to wander. I got a 1in 9 and it will still hold about 1" with any weight bullets. Wish I...

So I just sat here and went through this entire thread for the first time. I then went back and looked again. I am truly amazed at the ingenuity and abilities shown. I would patent that mold and...

I have one and shoot 440 g and 570 g. Loaded warm they will get your attention. I have never had mine come open. I did keep the latch an pivot clean. I love that rifle.

They don't even laugh at me anymore when I bring my bald head in and get peroxide and whitening powder.

Lyman black. Lube at 70 degrees. No heater. I suspect I have the die not set to proper spot. Thanks paul

Finally got the 450 set up today. I had spent the last couple days cleaning it up. I have only been using my Lee sizers up till now. I put a tube of lyman lube in it and cranked it down. When I put a...

I did it online. I think I will give them a month and check on it.

Been thinking about doing this for a while. I have been a member paying annual dues now for 20 years. $300 was paid for years ago. They may not be perfect but they are dang sure better then having...

I also go get a bunch of small flat rate boxes. They hold a reasonable mount and can be marked on the end. I then stick them marked end up in my crate that is on the floor. If I need to ship a box to...

That is a nice one whiterabbit. I have 3 maxis, all on sb 1 frames. Made a shot to for my daughter and it is great. I love mine!

That is very cool print. I will start searching myself. It would look great in the old reloading room.
Forum: Cast Boolits
I put mine in wooden box with rope handles. I made 5 of them and they stack nicely. I have also used old wine crates.

Thanks guys. Dan I will send you an email. Glad to hear you are doing bullets and I hope lube. Stub that sounds like a beast of a load. Just what I am after. Lloyd I looked at that mold and have 2...

HI guys,
I just picked up a 50 AK and need a good mold/boolit. I will be shooting it out of a handi rifle. Anyone casting for this one?

I know many of you do this but this is the first time I have done it. I went to my small town garage and asked if he had any WW for sale. He said "no" but you can HAVE some. Now we do alot of...

Biggest one I have scored to date. 96.6 lbs. Should be fun.

I have a price question and know that it is going to vary from place to place. Found a source with large blocks (around 100) of pure lead for .80/lb. Is this a good deal? New to this and any help...

It is good to have a friend that works at the bus maintanance shop. He brings me ice cream buckets with 6-9 oz weights pretty often. It sure doesn't take many to fill up some muffin tins.

You could do a 7-30 waters in a handi instead of a 30/357. This has already been done a bunch by some over at greybeard. I like the idea of a .327 in a handi. My ideal handi would be a 260, 6.8,...

Thanks guys, The ranch dog was the one I was looking at. I guess an order will be going out soon. I will keep my eye out for a used rcbs 200. That was my second choice and will probably be the...
