The built-in shrouds these days (see Benjamin Marauder and others) make shrouded pre-charged pneumatics extremely quiet. All you typically hear is the hammer hitting the air valve.

Colonel Larson. I got his signature on a Marlin catalog back in the 1960s when I attended an NRA convention with my Dad. Being a kid, I didn't understand who he was. Wish I could go back in time....

Looks like it shares a lot of attributes with the old Texan Loadmaster presses.
Forum: Reloading Equipment
The shellholder adapter works well unless you're trying to prime using the press. The primer cup plunger won't be long enough to protrude through the extra thickness of the adapter. Not an issue if...

Rick Willnecker of Precision Pellet is another good shop. He specializes in the old Crosmans, Benjamins, & Sheridans. He makes parts that are no longer available and his repair rates are very...

After restoring some old reloading dies, I'm sold on the Evaporust product. Take it apart & let it soak overnight. The next day, rinse with water, dry thoroughly, & wipe it down with oil. All of your...
I've seen mesquite with some burled figure. If I could have found some I liked, my last Blackhawk would have been stocked with them. Very tough wood.

One of the Georgia guys is having the opposite problem. His bullets are practically falling into the case. Maybe you two need to get together and swap dies?
See this thread: ...
I've used EvapoRust with great success on more than a dozen rusty molds. If the metal isn't pitted, you rarely will even see discoloration in the rusty areas. I usually remove the handles & sprue...

That's a Texan Loadmaster Model "D", to the best of my knowledge, but it's missing some parts. Most notably the top assembly, containing the powder & shot reservoirs, along with the powder/shot slide...

Definitely not a Loadmaster. I helped a buddy set up an old Texan last year and it's more like a MEC 600 than the piece you're describing.

If you're at the range & need to clean the bore a bit (or between shots), try spraying your patch with a little Windex (w/ammonia). It will clean that fouling right out!
Matter of fact, I had a...

I have one of those tools in .257 Roberts! Haven't pulled it out in years. Bought it at an estate sale about 25 years ago.
Well, my experience is limited to two Old Model Ruger .41 Mags and they both shot high with nearly any load I put through them. On the last one I bought, I had a higher front sight installed, which...
Not a cast boolit, but I took this yearling with a 175 gr Sierra jacketed HP ahead of a max load of H110 in my OM .41 mag. This year, all my game will be taken with cast boolits...
Here's a hog I got about 3 years ago. Came trotting out of the woods about 40 yds away when I took him with an S&W 4" M629 44 Mag through the shoulders with a 240 HP. Ran about 50 yds and piled up...
