Another vote for Stevesgunz. Got his DVD and did the action on a really stiff Rossi 44 mag that I got cheap used, it is one of the slickest leverguns I own now, have also bought some parts from him...

Wow, I'm jealous!
I just started casting a couple of years ago, have called and asked a lot of shops but no luck so far.
Good job!

I know this is an old post but I too would love to hear how the 38-40 conversion turned out!

Welcome, this truly is a great resource. I have spent countless hours reading on here and still have just scratched the surface. Casting has been more enjoyable and interesting than I would have ever...

Congrats! Enjoy every minute of it. When they are waking up multiple times a night it seems like it will never end, then you blink and they are in college!
God Bless

Mtgun44- just wanted to say thanks for the good information and insight you brought together in one spot for 9mm. Getting it figured out thanks to you!

Thanks,

Thanks guys! There is so much good info here that if you really do take the time to search and read it really makes that first attempt tons easier. Still have to learn as you go, but that is the fun...

Mitch,
I already cast some 38 swc last night just to see how they would fill out the mold, did have to add a few ounces of tin to my lee 20lb pot to get them to fill out nice and sharp. I plan on...

Good morning!

I don't post much on here beause I don't know much!:razz:
I have learned so much from all of you on this forum and have had so much fun doing it.
I have only been casting for a...

Kathie is a pleasure to do business, with very professional, excellent packing and communication, and in spite of all she had going on was very timely. Well done and thanks again!

Wow, great information, thanks Randy!
I will dig it back out and try cleaning the lenses thoroughly and see if that helps. It is not foggy as much as just dim, which as my own light gathering...

Hickok, I sure am glad you started this thread cause I just learned a ton reading through it.
Great responses guys, Thanks for the info, especially Char-gar!

As Hickok says these are good short range target load, and for cowboy shooting in pistols it will be great. I already have cast some 140swc, 120 Tc and some 158 rnfp so I think I have it covered ...

No worries azrednek wasn't really a typo just short for melting pot......:D excuse my newbie terminology.[smilie=1:

+1 for FSReloading
Have ordered several molds and pot from them recently in several orders (yes I am infected and the disease is worsening) Fast and reasonable shipping, backordered items are...

Ok so I was probably being too stingy with the Alox, because tonight was better.
I gave the bullets another coat with bullets and alox being warm.
I also used the Lee universal expader when I...

Thanks for the replies. I am going to load some of the 2x coated bullets and shoot in clean bore and see what happens. I have some 45/45/10 on order from white label and will give that a try when I...

Mm_ i used a lead sinker hammered through the bore from the muzzle, did not feel any increased resistance as it went through the forcing cone.

Beagle- actually played with the powder coat a little on some reject rifle slugs, but only did a few and haven't tried shooting them, just learned how it worked, (swirl on method).

Gray Wolfe-...

Here are some pics of the scope, sorry for the low quality, cell phone pics.

I don't know much about this scope. It has been laying around here for ages and I just haven't messed...

Been reloading and shooting for a long time but just recently got started casting.
Cast up some lee 358-105 SWC a couple weeks ago, ACWW only (didn't have any tin to add at that point) and loaded...

thanks for the reply swheeler, I know weaver makes some great scopes, but this "M" model isn't one of them. Just curious to see if anybody could shed some light.

I have this scope that I got as part of some trading and swapping years ago that I just ran across digging through some stuff.
Only markings on it is in White Lettering on the tube of the scope as...

Hey Ron dog did you wind up trying this?
I love the compact size of that Nikon p223 scope and was thinking about trying it on a lever action myself.

Thanks
Larrupin

I have one of the sub 2000 in 9mm it was orginally set up to Beretta mags and I don't own a Beretta, but you can order the mag catch part from Kel-Tec to convert to s&w, or sig mags. Since I already...
