wow just in time pheww!!

Minuteshaver, I didn't mention loading colt data in my Schofield cases, next time I need to be clearer when I say something ,, i'm confusing folks.

Thanks I appreciate your input.

Oh maybe I didn't make it clear sorry , i'm not using Colt charges in he 45 S&W I have separate Schofield data to use.
I have spent years reading my books and I have a ton of them and you are right...

no not yet , I have finished " hogging "out the recoil shield so I can use the Kirst loading gate and after treating it with the OXPHO-BLU I gotta say the color match is awesome.
I'm in the process...

" I have been looking at this bullet and thinking of trying it in .45 acp."
Don't see why it shouldn't do fine in ACP, I generally go with my H&G 68 clone though, if it ain't broke ,,,, yadda yadda...

Thanks for the info bob, I see you seat it a tad longer than the recommended 1.600" and i'm guessing it doesn't interfere with the cylinder rotation any cos your shooting it.
I may measure my...

how deep do you seat that TC boolit, what's your overall cartridge length? ,
I don't have any TC designs, closest I have are SWC's,
just curious that's all.
man I wish my Unique supply was bigger...

Sorry for the delay with getting back here .
I have some Unique but only a tad left in my jug so i'll have to grab some more sometime in the near future,
I need to get " stocked up" again anyhow....

Thanks for the reply Curator, I have most of the older Ideal /Lyman books and the newer cast boolit books also some Sierra and Hornady's.
I gave my BIL my Lee book when he started to reload maybe I...

Hi guy's i'm looking to load for the 45 colt in a reproduction Rem 1858 with a Kirst converter ( 45 colt).
My question is if I want to stay within the safe zone here how do I know how deep to seat...

:drinks: ,,,, fella's.
I just ordered some schofield brass and a set of Colt / Schofield RCBS cowboy dies , I have an older RCBS 3 die set for 45 colt but wasn't sure if ALL would work with the...

Absolutely agree, I intend to stay well within the pressures & speeds that the BP revolver conversion can handle , no hot rods here.
I'm going to order some Schofield brass and maybe just buy some...

Hi guy's, I have a Rem 1858 nma with the Kirst conversion in it and have about 3 or 4 molds that will cast suitable boolits but the heaviest one I have is the 454374 at 230gn's , also the H&G #68 NOE...

Yup the rod, I think you can get them from maybe at Taylors and some other outfits out there.
I think they make one called the Mason speed ejector which has the spring as most other offerings don't...

Hey Guy's i'm fixin to start loading for the venerable 45 Colt and the shell holders I have are all lyman, well maybe a couple of rcbs thrown in there,
Anyway I don't have the rcbs #20 needed for...

Might just do that brother.

Well thanks fella's .
I checked the tracking this afternoon and it's supposed to be here Saturday so it's a go.
I dug out all my Rat-tailed files out and have my Dremel gear all ready to go, going...

That is a much less messy way of getting a chamber throat measurement,
All this time I have been slopping Cerrosafe (spelling?.. ) all over the darn place.
Going to try that ,, thanks.

I too like the #68 , I have the NOE version and it's a gud-un.
The other 45 mold I use is the Ideal 452374 , I cast about 500 or so and then promptly sent it off to Erik to have it Hollowpointed ,...

Thx John, after snooping around the interweb last night I think I can pull this dermal job off,
It doesn't look too complicated and I have the tools so i'm going to order the Kirst and go for it.
...

Hi guy's ,
My other half has agreed to let me buy a conversion cylinder for one of my BP revolvers so I have chosen the Rem 1858 .
The question I have is , (well two questions really) do I get the...

I have no leading problems in my Krag using the 314299 sized to .311 and lubed with Carnuba Red.
Never used rooster so can't comment .

Awesome guy's thanks.

Alright thankx fella's for the info , I thought there might be at least one place had what I needed.
Tex, i'll look into the M91-4-SP from Brownells and see if it is compatable it certainly looks (...

Hi guy's .
I'm in the process of putting some gear on an old ( was beat up,, no longer.) Argie 1891 and I have turned my attention to the trigger.
My question for those who have been through this ...
