    Incredible thread on benchrest gun build and bullet swage!

    Here is a great thread I found a while back, just the kind that any of us should like, lots of pics! The gentelmen builds a benchrest gun from bare steel and then shows all the steps he uses to make exceptional bullets.

    The swaging of bullets starts around page 26 but the entire thread is a great read and pretty incredible.

    Check it out!

    Thanks for posting that link. I had started reading that thread several years ago and then forgot about it.

    SingleActions is my second most visited forum after Cast Boolits. Lots of experience there too, just somewhat different than here. 44man wasn't too popular over there but the feeling was mutual. Just like here, you have to overlook a lot of things.

    I try not to get into the political side of things. Simply enjoy finding and sharing good info related to our hobbies, and the info in that thread is good.

    I only hope he uploaded all those pics directly to the site. It looks like my threads with lots of pics but then photobucket deletes them all! Obviously he didn't use photobucket. What a lot of awesome pics in that thread!
