    I think because you both live in the same State, it should be you that meets him for the official pat on the back, for all of us.

    Kidding aside, where else could you go post a single photo and get an answer like that in twelve minutes, much less a correct answer?

    I give loading advice based on my actual results in factory rifles with standard chambers, twist rates and basic accurizing.
    My goals for using cast boolits are lots of good, cheap, and reasonably accurate shooting, while avoiding overly tedious loading processes.
    The BHN Deformation Formula, and why I don't use it.
    How to find and fix sizing die eccentricity problems.
    Do you trust your casting thermometer?
    A few musings.

    Yep I would bet singer. BTW Many sewing machine brands are just clones of singer machines.

    Singer Model 66 (and 66K), heavy duty domestic machines, usually sold in a treadle cabinet and first made in 1907, ceased production in England in 1939 but continued to be made in the US until 1956.
