130 grain Mi HEC hollow point for 9 millimeter. Powder coated. Driven by various propellants. I like be 86 power pistol has way too much flash for me. I can say you just punched a 45 caliber hole in...

Ok, thanks guys. --
Just want to make sure I'm reading this right....I thought if the slug runs into the lands that that was something that could induce high pressures, and that you want the slug...

Whoops; sorry guys. long day at work. Guy=Die. Bad text translation. Anyway......
It's a Lee die. And its just for seating. Crimp die is a separate die. And how, if I decided to do that, would one...
Forum: Cast Boolits
Right. Exactly. So I guess my thought was to get a new seating guy that has the guy body wide enough to permit the slug to travel freely through the center. As it is now the hole in the bore of the...

I was getting a seating depth worked out for my .308 casts today. When I closed the bolt with the 170 and 180 grain lead slugs with gas checks, I determined that 2.64 was the length of the cartridges...

Getting the .308 casting thing hashed out. I was trying to use my seating die to, uh, seat the projectiles and I realized that my .311-.312 powder coated slugs were slightly too fat to fit thru the...

Determined max coal that would seat in my Savage FCP-SR 308 with the assortment of lead slugs I have accumulated. Kinda short:neutral:

Welcome Steel. Read, read, read. And again, welcome. The collective wisdom here will get you answers to the questions that will inevitably come up.

Awesome. Thanks fellers. The NOE expander looks like the 10 ring; in looking at the specs, I'm inclined, based upon what I see above, to go with...uh...the .316 x .312, yeah? And forgive the remedial...

Greetings all; will try to keep this concise. I think I've boiled down the answer, but I could be missing something.
Casting/powder coating now for .308. I have an average sized diameter of...
Forum: Cast Boolits
Does the Lyman "M" die do essentially the same thing? Which between the LEE / NOE / Lyman is preferred?
Forum: Cast Boolits
Feel a bit remedial here that I'm not seeing my way clear on this one.
Have the Lee ultimate die set which was working great with the JHP BT Hornady amax slugs. The .308 slugs slipped just fine...

Is there any way to attach a file to a PM? Finished up a powder coating project for another CB'er and can't seem to find a way to attach the spreadsheet file.

Don't think I have any lead levels. Motorcycle accidents are much more dangerous. Found out the hard way. They tested my blood every way to Sunday, and somehow I came out of the deal with...

Several times, loading both 9mm and .308, I will on occasion get a primer stuck in the shellplate, and thus, the shell will not come out of the plate.
Last time it happened with the .308 (very...
Ill try to be brief. Thinking of a Mossberg Patriot in .243. Not really a hunter but I'd like the option. Been casting

Greetings all,
How does one determine the proper powder charge for "in-between" load data? For example, Im using BE86, and I have the following load data for 9MM Luger.

Yeah, I'm in North Dallas area and outdoors is a little hard to come by. I know there's a public range in Garland.....might give them another go if I can't get this PC thing together.
Thanks guys.

Indoor range dude gave me a little flac about shooting lead last time (understandable) Here is my question, just out of curiosity:
1. Current lube method: Tumble with LLA, allow to dry, run thru...

Guys. First let me say i LOVE THIS FORUM. I belong to a number of them and this one is by far the best and that is appreciated greatly. Tazman, it was always laid out to me that sizing w/o lube would...

Greetings listers. Trying to cut down a little on the smoke profile some as I'm shooting indoors now.
I am running the Lee 120 RN conventional lube design. They drop about 359 and I'm sizing down...

Good info all; the .22 question did cross my mind as I left. I think one of the newer guys was the one who let me know. I went the very next day and shot same as I always have and no one had an issue...
