Bought a 45acp RN 230 grain magma mould that needed some work so that handles could be attached. I sent it to buckshot and he had that sucker back in no time. He drilled and tapped the mould, provided me with attachment pins, added a stop pin. Man it sure looks sweet!! Can't wait to cast some boolits with it.

Buckshot ~ you da man! :-D

Buckshot does great work and a thanks to him for a well made Lyman/RCBS style lube/size die and a Lyman M-die expander plug.

OH MAN...............I just got some custom sizer dies from Rick (Buckshot) on the forum. I had some monster bullets I couldn't size and he set me up with a custom die to lube them first at as cast diameter (Lyman/RCBS type die) and then a Lee push through nose first to swage them down.

I've done *some* work with Lee sizers but not much because I don't like Mule Snot. Mounted in the old Rock chucker I've got that Lee sizer just doesn't take ANY effort at ALL.

When I was trying to size about .004 off the bullets in my Lyman sizer I was breaking toggle links and irritating my arthritis in my hands.

Shove 'em through the Lyman die to get lube on them then shove them through the Lee to size with zero effort.

................AND HIS PRICES DID NOT COST ME A FORTUNE AND HE DELIVERED IN A WEEK!!!!

WAY STRAIGHT SHOOTER AND GREAT WORK!

Buckshot made me a a couple of HP moulds, and the work is flawless !! I am extremely pleased with his work and I know that anyone needed a mould modified to a HP will also be extremely pleased with his work. Great guy to deal with !!

Just bought a custom sizing die from Buckshot for my 38/55 boolits. He happened to have one in stock and it landed in my mailbox in only a few days. "A +"on the workmanship and the price is very reasonable. I am seriously impressed.

I got my .267" Lube/Sizer yesterday from Rick and I can't begin to tell you how impressed I was with it. He had sized the boolit that I sent to him and returned it with the die and when I mic'd it, my mic read 0.26700000". I mean it was dead nuts! Awesome. I even stuck the gauge under a lighted magnifying glass and I could not see even a hair on either side of the line. Hooooeeee! When you're hot , you're hot! This is not my first dealing with Rick and it sure won't be the last. I just wonder why I haven't been using his dies all along, unless it is his statement that he doesn't make sizes that are made commercially. I guess he doesn't want to put them out of business.[smilie=1::-D

I just want to sing the praises for Buckshot. I sent him $28.00 for a push through die a week ago and got is last night. And the workmanship was fantastic. Just about the time I thought he would be getting my check, I get the die! Thanks Buckshot!

I had a mould missing the HP pin, sent it to him. He did a fabulous job making the new pin and refurbishing the mold. Buckshot is A++++ and one of the best folks on the list. I have dealt with him several times and his work is ALWAYS the best and I am always happy with his work.
So Buckshot ... here is a toast to you !! (Ok ...so it's coffee, not champagne)

I had Buckshot make me another spud for a Lyman "M" die and he made it to my EXACT specifications. It's nice to know that there are still some craftsman out there who take the time to do it right!

Hello Folks,

Today, in timely fashion, I received a Lyman/RCBS sizing die custom made for me by Buckshot. The die is an example of exceptional craftsmanship, truly a work of pragmatic art. It came with a bullet that had been sized, which I checked with my micrometer, and found it to be correct to 0.0001” of advertised diameter. Rick is one of the straight shooters, to be sure.

Take care, Tom

Bought a push through for my 6.5x55 and it is just the ticket and I bought a rifle from him with brass and dies too, a great deal
Good fast shipping couldn't ask for a better person to deal with.

Buckshot is awesome! I sent 4 moulds to him, for him to HP them, and received them back promptly and I can't begin to tell you how great they are. 2 of the moulds are Keith 44 and 357 moulds. Can't wait to cast and post some pics for you guys to envy. Will be sending more for him to HP for sure.

This is a little overdue, but I have four dies from Buckshot now and I wouldn't go anywhere else!

I have wanted to get a mould hollow-pointed as well as try some of Buckshot's cake cutters for boolit removal when pan lubing. I finally got that done and I received my stuff from Buckshot today. All the praises about his machine work are absolutely true. I found him to be very personable and a delight to do business with. If you, like me have been saying "I want to do that", I'd highly recommend you give him a PM and get the ball rolling. You will be very pleased with the results. Thanks Rick for being a straight shooter and getting my stuff just right!

Buck shot made me a great die, nose sizer to be be used in a standard press not a 450, from concept to delivery was only a few days its the nicest piece of machining I've seen in quite some time, nice guy to deal with and you get way way more value for your dollar!!!! Great job! Will come to him for all future needs.

Buckshot did a couple projects for me that I had been trying to figure out but was unable to do myself. Well, from now on, I think I will just pester him instead of even trying to figure out how to do them myself. I just hope I don't get annoying to him with all the ideas and questions, cause I have several things that I will be sending his way for modifications. He's one of the best machinists I have ever seen and a great guy to talk to also. A true gentleman!
