I was able to get my Ross out to the range recently to shoot up some 174 gr PPU factory loads. It shoots aprox 18 inches high at 100yds. It took me a while to figure out the sight picture but I...

My only supply of .303 brass is PRVI Boxed 175 and 180 loaded ammo. Should I pull the bullets, fire form with cast boolits, and save the jacketed bullets? Would it be safe to use the o-ring method...

I appreciate everyone's feedback and info on the Ross. I'll be sure to post some results when I get it out to the range.

A friend showed me his Ross a couple years ago. He said it was his most accurate milsurp rifle. I didn't think much after that because they seemed very scarce and at the time I wasn't interested in...

I picked up this Winchester M1917 recently and I was curious if the numbers on the stock and bolt were orginal or an after thought by a previous owner. It also has a stamp near the magazine cover...

Thanks for the feedback!

I'm interested in restoring this 1909 Argentine barreled action. I have never R&R'd a rear sight base on a Mauser action. Is the 1909 Argentine rear sight base proprietary or could I use...

Does anyone have experience shooting CMP Vintage Military Matches with cast boolits? I'm thinking the best boolit would be 311299 or 314299 in any capable .30 cal rifle (US 30-06 variants, Finn...

Is the funky smell these produce while shooting a concern? I know in the harbor freight instructions it mentions baking in a ventilated oven.

Smokem was easy to deal with, shipped quickly, and the brass was appropriately described.

Can anyone tell me the difference between these 2 chamber casting alloys? Is Cerrosafe worth the premium cost?

My experience with my M&P40 and the Lee 175TC is size to .4015 in a lee push through and tumble lube per Lee instructions. I also had luck with Rooster Jacket. I've also noticed that PMC brass is...

I'm thinking something like this might work better for an SKS.

Sized down to .314 on left and as cast on right. I'd like to try it but I don't have a Chronograph and there's no load data for...

Casted both black and orange label boxes today and everything went well. The orange label boxes seem to have some type of coating that easily burns off. I've never had to deal with zinc...

+1 for Charlie, I haven't used any other tools but I can't say enough about his customer service. Every time I've had emailed him he's called my within 15 minutes of sending my email....

Unless you're loading for a .308 bored rifle it might be hard to successfully load for 7.62x39 without mold modification or paper patching. Seems like a good candidate for the latter.

All, thanks for the feedback. I tried warming up the pot yesterday to confirm our assumptions but the shippers broke the wire connection on it. I'll post my findings when I get it repaired or...

This is a small sample of new wheel weights I found yesterday and thought these pictures might be helpful for future reference....

A friend of mine recently a5cquired a Siamese Mauser. The seller told him it was a 1903 chambered in 8x50R. Is there a way to confirm this without taking a casting of the chamber? I've read there...

I found this in a stack of linotype I was sorting. Thought it was an interesting find. Has anyone else found anything beside letters, numbers, etc.?
...

It depends on your intentions but as already stated you can shoot boolits in either cartridge. Do some searching on .223 twist rates and the 300BLK is obviously cast friendly with a plethora of...

That was fast, thanks for posting the pics and info.

It looks like there is another option for those 300 Blackout/Whisper subsonic loads but I'm sure most of us can imagine many more uses. I was hoping for a standard lube groove and I'm not sure if it...

I thought about this after I got rid of my Czech 7.62x25 can of surplus ammo.

I've lurked for about a year and it's probably about time I post here. I've been lucky to start casting within the last couple months with the help of some local forum members. (Larry Gibson and ...
