I ordered the Lee 476-325 mold and will see how it does.Thanks for all the input.

Not looking for speed. 1000-1100 FPS range. Just wondering if accuracy is negatively affected due to losing the gas check as the last bearing surface. I think the bullet would be well enough...

Has anyone been using cast boolits designed for gas checks, without the gas checks and just powder coating them? what have your results been?

I haven't purchased the mold yet. I am wondering if people using powder coated Boolits that were designed to use gas checks are having any success without the gas check. Mold alteration would be a...

I am thinking about getting the Lee.476-325 grain gas check mold and powder coating the boolits but not using gas checks. Does anyone see a down side to this? Has anyone milled a Mold like this down...

Is this still open? Brass or aluminum mold? Are you selling handles too, or do I have to source them myself? It looks like the mold comes either as a HP or solid and for $16 you can get a different...

I talked to the guy with the mold and it is one of the Lee .457 molds. I decided to pass as I wasn't successful with a Lee .457 diameter boolit before. As often as I shoot this barrel ( not very ) I...

I tried the lee 340 gr .457 mold a bunch of years ago and the boolits leaded terribly. I tried them soft, medium and hard and I sold the mold. I am hoping that a mold that throws a larger diameter ...

I know Max 45-70 pressure in Contenders is 28000-32000 PSI but most data I find for 45-70 is CUP. It appears that Trapdoor data is safe to use to work up with but it would be nice to find a...

I am looking at the Lee 405 gr Hollow Base mold .459. Is this bullet OK with smokeless powder or is the hollow base a blackpowder only design? It is for use in my TC Contender.

Some are repeats......

Dumped the Mil-surp bore cleaner out today and it was darker and thicker than it went in. I got more black streaks on the patches and shot some carb cleaner down the bore than more patches. still...

I ran the EBC several times and would get little black flakes ( looked like pepper) when I would dump the ammonia out of bore. Then I would scrub with patch and get more dark smear on patches. I...

I put an electronic deplater together this morning and will see how it does. Its bubbling away and I will see how many times I have to run it to get down to the bore. Thanks for everyone's help.

I decided to go camping. I have the Bore soaking in Shooters Choice bore cleaner for now and will see if that loosens thing sup. Thanks for all the helpful tips. Bill

Recluse, was this the 45-45-10 mix?

MyGun44, I believe what you are saying as Vinegar is an acid. I am just reporting what I have seen after having steel wool in contact with the solution I am using. I have been dipping my bore brush...

No rust or pitting visible looking down the bore. After the mix has been in the bore and poured out the rifling is shiny and not showing any signs of the mix attacking it., but I still can't see the...

What is the process for the paper patching ? Do I have to use a smaller bullet or wrap a bullet I am using now? How do use seat the bullet without ripping the PP off? Currently using a Lee 130GC...

None that I know of for a bore scope.. Are you thinking that the solution is penetrating the fouling and bringing out the rust? If the vinegar-peroxide is getting down below the fouling why doesn't...

I have a old 7mm mauser that shoots J word boolits ok but it has a dark bore that just won't clean up. I started shooting cast through it and have had erractic results. I looked closely down the bore...

Does anyone know what percentage of JPW was actually carnuba wax? You can buy Carnuba wax flakes on Ebay 4 ounce for $9.00 shipped. what amount would you add to a bottle of Lee Alox and what other...

Ruger Blackhawk 44 Special

I will throw a set of handles on it and see what happens. Thanks for all your help.
