$1.25 for the year? or per hour this year?

yes true that still see those for sale in a box of unknown dies. usually marked with cartridge numbers, like 222 for rem 222

I think they offed the STRAIGHT LINE shot gun kits which had several...

state law trumps Fed. you might check with your LGS, they do this every day = DO NOT ASSUME IT'S LEGAL because you read it on the net.

Just for clarity, are you guys using 2 or 3 thou for cast and less for jackets, or other way round? I use the Lyman cause the M step is great, but the sizes are not always the best. I have turned a...

RickinTN have you tried compression socks? I entered the swollen legs/ high BP phase of life. Really huge swollen lower legs, can/t get boots on. Compression socks have made a world of difference.

OK - 2 die or 3 die set? expander plug diameter? Shell holder included? I would be interested if you decide to scrap those. I shoot a Werndl and like it a lot. Proper dies would be cool.
Maybe I...

yes that too. The old Winchester rifle molds all had a slight BB for that reason mostly.

Sierra
30cal 168gr competition international HP. These are what became known as matchking. $30 each, 6 available.

yes, bevel base bullets are very common to casting machines. Flat bases don't fill out so good. Also they survive shipping and gorilla handling with out noticeable damage. Also partly why the high...

bobsavage - nice post ! FWIW, my uncle was a huge gun trader years ago now deceased. He once said Marlin barrels held up much better than Winchester. Anecdotal to be sure, but he handled 100's of...

How many are you looking to have? I believe 32-20 wcf can be used. you might check the archives for load data etc.

A small point I noticed - you mentioned the lead was running through the mold Do you have any splatter on the mold faces? That will hold them open. Clean that off. When you dump bullets from...

My ride has LED in it, ( a used car 2006 ) I love the bright light at night. I can see deer another 50 yds out. BUT I get flashed by other drivers all the time, even when they know I on low beam. ...

I like the double drum thing, looks very nice. I once had a similar rig made of concrete sluce pipe on end. Pipe had big holes broken out so..wood fire in the bottom and all the stuff on top. Once...

how is your elbow? nice job!

Not sure of the dates, but I have one of those, minty, and it is an oversized base. Cases last about two shots with full power loads before head separation.( with full resizing) You might want to...

I don't think any of that stuff will kill you, unless you get a bullet stuck in the barrel and don't notice until the next shot. But it sounds like a lot of potential headaches. I might save the...

Never heard of a .33-40 WCF. I know reboring 32-40 to 33-40 was common enough. I once had a Stevens 33-40 that had gone through this change. Gun was typical worn out ratty old 44 but the bore was...

I have fought this brass battle many times. I have $100 worth of books on "how to" - all obsolete now that these old odd balls have become popular again. But wait, they are not making it now. I...

yup, I'd like to get a couple molds from either of those guys - years waiting. I don't know what they do sell, but it ain't what I want. If you have only a picture in the catalog but never make...

You might look into 11mm Mauser but the rim thickness must be watched.

Bent Ramrod, I also searched for your piece and found nothing. Any clues?

I made one. I used #10 Romex copper wire. 3 strands, one end in a vice, the other in the cordless drill chuck. Twist together. Solder on threaded or what ever end. It works well but "sheds"...

egg sinkers or lead balls BUT really do cerosafe casts - easier, chamber cast, muzzle cast all good

yes, me too
thanks
