Good Evening,

Just wanted to introduce myself. My name is Cody, I am up in Alliance, Nebraska. Recently started wanting to learn more about black powder cartridge reloading and bullet casting, especially now that I have a Sharps on order. I am very much looking forward to learning and being a part of the community here.

Welcome aboard Cody. I will caution about falling to far down the rabbit hole. Many of us where already gone when we got here but for those who where not it does not take long. Any question just ask and if you dont have questions then jump in the conversation anyway. Great to have ya.

Nice to see ya!

[Cessnapilot89]

Cody what caliber did you order?

45-110 or 45 2-7/8ths. Not sure what the proper term is as Shiloh called it. 45-110 but other folks say it's a 45 2-7/8th

I ordered a Quigley clone. Something that I had been ogling for a decade and surprisingly my wife was on board with it. She and I drove to Big Timber and paid for one. Now to wait and learn.

Welcome to our group. Some call it a hobby but it soon becomes an addiction.

Welcome to the site and the first advice is bring a big "container" for all the knowledge here.
What caliber is your sharps being chambered in? Twist rate? Wrights books are very good on loading the black powder cartridges. I believe they are available from Shiloh's website

The Cessna 185 is one of my favorite planes!
Many thousands of hours in 185s on tundra tires, floats, skis!!

[Cessnapilot89]

Thank you everyone! Just picked up a few 5 gallon buckets full of lead. Now to start finding more tools

Welcome Cody! Lottsa smart fellas here (not me though). Have fun & enjoy casting & shooting!

This is me also.

Start reading the stickies about mixing lead, and paper patching.
Also get supplies when you find them now. Powder, Primers, press, luber (if going with grease booits) maybe powder coating (I know blasphemy, to some folks) just throwing things out there.
One of these days I want to shoot a Quigley Match!!!!!!
