I have spent the last 20+ years shooting and loading for several 375 Winchester rifles. Winchester, Marlin, Savage, Ruger, and a Marlin 30-30 that I had rebored. As others have said, the rebored...

I'm starting from scratch, building a G21 on a P80 frame with a 5.5" ported barrel. I haven't had a 45 Super before this so I'd like to have at least a couple hundred for now. I'm getting some from...

Looking for 45 Super brass/ammo. New, once fired, fired more than once, does not matter.

Yes I'm just looking for a Lee Loader kit for collecting all things 375 Winchester.

Would like to find a Lee Loader kit for the 375 Winchester. Have been scouring the internet but have not had any luck. I figure there's more than likely a couple here if anyone would be willing to...

I removed the barrel, and slugged the bore. Groove diameter measures .3528", and bore diameter is .3475". SAAMI 9mm groove diameter is .355" +.004"/-.000". Returned it to Midway and replaced it...

Looks like I need to find a different mold.

I have a AR-9 and would like to shoot a 147 gr cast bullet. They will not freely chamber unless seated very deep. So deep that some brands of brass will bulge the mid section. Obviously a less than...

First try was pretty much a bust. I decided to start at 30 gr. and go up from there. The first load was fairly accurate, about 2 inches at 50 yards, but they were very mild, just over 1600 fps. ...

Thanks, I think that's where I'll start.

I do believe you are not recalling your load correctly. I use 46.0 gr of IMR4895 with jacketed 150's in my Garand, and that's a fairly mild load.

I have the LEE 230 gr. 30 cal mold. It's a peach in my 300 Blackout, and I'd like to try it in my Garand. I put a dummy round together, and it freely chambers, and will function with the clips. I...

I was trying to find the BC for the Saeco 645 bullet, a 480 gr. 45 caliber. You guys pointed me to some online calculators that can get you pretty close, but I went a step further. I set up my...
Forum: Cast Boolits
Yes, the shape is the same, it looks identicle to your pic. Do you think that increase would be proportional up to 110 gr. increase? That seems like it would be pretty high. That would put my BC...
Forum: Cast Boolits
Thank you Tom. That's not the exact bullet, I'm using the 645 mold, but it should get me pretty close. An extra 110 grains of weight might change it more than I think though. First chance I get...

I know I saw a program before to calulate a cast bullet's BC from it's dimensions. I had my ballistic calculator all set up in my smart phone, but then that phone met an untimely end. I'm trying to...

I bought a cheapo set of punches from Harbor Frieght. The 7/16" punch cuts a wad that is perfect for the 45-70, just a couple thousandths larger than the bullet. The whole set of punches, 5 or 6...

I really couldn't say Dan, I've never made a chamber cast, and I've only been shooting this rifle a couple months. Yes, I am shooting BP, Graf's 2F. I'm also new to loading BPCR. Everything I know...

My Sharps will shoot noticeably tighter groups with bullets harder than 30-1. I have best results with straight clip on wheelweights, air cooled.
