I'm on the search for some .44 special bullets.
I have some 230gr lee liquid lubed bullets with aluminum gas checks and I want to load some with 1680 powder. I enlarged my gas port to 1/8in on my AR rife with a 16in barrel and I'm wondering what...

I tried another scrap bullet and it did come out to 0.401. I did not lube them the first time so that might have been the issue.
I guess my next question is is .402 better for lead bullets?
Forum: Reloading Equipment
My .40 die sizes my lead bullets down to .39. What is the best way to open it up to .403?
Thx for the info.

I know my lee bullet sizing die is under sizing them. What is the best way to adjust it?

My first batch I tried with a new oven, melted some of my bullets when set to 450. I put a thermometer in there and it was really reaching 650 when set at at that temp. So my advice is either get a...

Wouldn't a Lee Factory Die also size the a lead bullet down?
Forum: Coatings and Alternatives
I'm pretty sure it was the Lee sizing die sizing them to small. I used, I had molded some Lee tumble lube bullets but want to size them anyway, so I used a Lee sizing die. It sized the bullets down...

I thought that was the case. I have some .40 lead cast I want to use in my 10mm. I tried lee lube on just 40SWs and it leaded up so badly the rifling disappeared. I was going to try powder coat on...

Why use a powder coat paint, why not just any old spray paint?
Just curious.
Load do you use for them a standard or magnum? If I'm loading .45 colt, is the powder charge I use for the standard or magnum? I know normally you would use 10% less powder if you are using a magnum...
I guess my biggest question is that to short for that round? Will it cause over pressure?
What was happening was my bolt would slide shut but would not open. I trimmed my case down lower because I could see a ring around the very tip. But my bolt was still getting stuck. So I seated my...
I have a 10" pistol that I have had to work with to get them to hand cycle with my LEE 230gr tumble lube bullets. It seems sizing the case length down to the minimal Wilson Case checker length and...

That is the same process I used for my 230 lee .308 Black out bullets. Not a drop of lead in the barrel.
Forum: Cast Boolits
Just a fallow up. checked my barrel for lead, not a single drop of it left in there.
Forum: Cast Boolits
I use w/w lead with aluminum gas checks and 45-45-10 White Lube. At 30 yards I could put my fist over 30 rounds.
I used my converted Bushmaster carbon 15 with a 16" barrel.

Just explain to them this is not the same stuff you powder your nose with.
Interesting, information. Did they ever check lead blood levels of the residents around the Doe run facility?
