Does anyone have any experience with this mold?
I'm considering buying it for an AK that I'm building.

I find some of these cases once in a while. They are very very easy to size down to .308.
I'm wondering if anyone is using them to make .308 projectiles with them.
It seems like it would be very...

55,000 should be about right. You should be able to use 222 Remington load data for it. 222 Remington has a case capacity of 26.9gr of H2O, while 5.45x39 has a case capacity of 27gr of H20.

This doe was killed in 2011 close to my home town. Bass pro offered him like $25,000 for it.

I have blackout dies. If you want to send me some brass I can run them into a sizing die.

I need a lever gun chambered in 30 bobcat. Same bullets, powder, and primers as 300 blackout. Similar performance I would assume.

I've thought about using .357 Maximum cartridges to form rimmed 300 blackout cases. I think that would be a really cool lever gun cartridge.

If fresh water won't work to make the rubber float you could use salt water. The saltier the better for making stuff float.

As someone who has lost part of a finger, I wouldn't wish losing even part of a finger on anyone.
I hope she is able to get over the issue emotionally and is able to get back to shooting.

I used to use a 55 gallon barrel that was stood up to melt large batches of lead. There was a 6 inch hole at the bottom and a larger hole on top. The top had a steel heavy duty grill on it....

I'm interested in this bullet. I was wondering if someone had a few they would be willing to send me to try out?
I would be willing to make a trade for the bullets.

When I worked in a gun store and rang up ammo it would ask for the birth date. If I could tell the person was clearly old enough to be buying ammo I didn't ask and just entered a random date.

I picked up another 55 pounds of range scrap today.
I'm going to try to make it to the public range once a week from now on to reclaim lead.
I also need to get a better sifter so I can process it...

I told one of my friends a couple days ago that ten thousand pounds might be enough.

I have started reclaiming range scrap from my local range.
I've been thinking about how to turn the scrap copper back into bullets.
My idea was to melt the copper down into ingots. After it was...

I will never understand why someone would rather keep relisting something than take a reasonable offer.

I bought a small bucket with handle and drilled a bunch of 9/32 holes on the bottom. I should be able to scoop and sift with the bucket.
If I have a hard time scooping with it I'll go buy a small...

I have a little over 300 pounds of unprocessed wheel weights and range scrap.
I need to get a bigger cast iron pot and a better propane stove so I can get this stuff turned into ingots.

I'm thinking about buying one of these target stands to hang steel plates from.
I could also hang a sifting box from it after I get done shooting, or if I just feel like mining a berm.

I picked up 20 pounds of range scrap today in an hour at the local range.
I need to get a better sifter. I was using a cheap plastic pasta strainer today.
There is literally tons of lead in the...
