    Rock Riser

    Does anyone know if Jim Flinchbaugh is still making the Rock Riser stand for the Rock Chucker press?

    I dropped him a message on this. I think he may be fishing today.
    The solid soft lead bullet is undoubtably the best and most satisfactory expanding bullet that has ever been designed. It invariably mushrooms perfectly, and never breaks up. With the metal base that is essential for velocities of 2000 f.s. and upwards to protect the naked base, these metal-based soft lead bullets are splendid.

    Forget everything you know about loading jacketed bullets. This is a whole new ball game!

    I haven't made any of these for years now. The rising price of steel has made them entirely unprofitable.
    The first batch I made was from stock I had on hand. If I had to go buy steel they'd be well over 100 bucks now
    Inline Fabrication had some mounts that are solid, might investigate them

    Gindy,

    I'd recommend the under bench receiver system which allows for many and varied mounting of hand loading tools/presses.

    I once owned a Hornady progressive and that press was mounted several inches above the bench top.

    If you or anyone is interested, just send me a P.M. and include your personal "E" address and I'll gladly send you images and any info you desire.
