Did you actually measure the size bullet or are you assuming it's diameter based on what the sizer die is marked? That could bite your butt too, especially if it's a Lee push through. The "Precision"...

Sad that he's gone but glad he's no longer suffering, I know the pain was getting worse. I'll be praying for Ruth and the rest of the family.
Bob was a good guy.
I like the way you think.

Comfortable wadcutter loads, hollow base facing out. An absolute joy in the 41 mag Taurus Tracker.
Incidentally the Mihec 265gr Tru-shot clone is the perfect length for it in 41 special brass.
If we're talking them into a 41 Special I want an SP-101.

I think you will find happiness with either MML+ or 666+
I like making things myself enough that I wouldn't buy the commercial stuff anyway.

For cartridge use I suggest going ahead and trying the 666+ and seeing how it works in YOUR rifles. I'm betting you'll like it, it's cheap, easy and it's rewarding to use something you made yourself....

Where did you get the case reamer?

Tromix WAS making Socom barrels for the Mossberg MVP, which uses the standard AR magazine the 458 Socom was designed to feed from. Since the MVP uses a barrel nut similar to a Savage I'm pretty sure...

Oh
I could make that easy, I'll trade you my T7 and 3 turrets for the 550 even up. I'll even throw in the plate for the inline fabrication quick change setup.

I love my inline fabrication mount as well.
The 550 is nearly a deluxe turret press anyway, shouldn't be a problem.

That IS a clever idea. I still like being only limited by the size container you choose to put under it with the upside with the hose though.

Horse and buggies are adequate! They will NEVER be replaced by these new fangled automobiles.

Yes, and everybody loves it when that last bullet pushes it up off the sizing die and dumps bullets everywhere. Just because YOU see no need to improve the process doesn't mean the process doesn't...

My Old Model Blackhawk and Dan Wesson like it. A LOT.

Nor should you be surprised we have to hear the RPM Threshold nonsense yet again.
Claiming shrinkage when the rest of us that have actually tried it KNOW it grows makes it seem as though he hasn't...

Adding babbitt with copper in it is the most reliably/repeatable way.
You get a harder yet more malleable bullet, not brittle.

I want one. I'd started thinking on this a couple months ago, went searching and truly, NOTHING is new under the sun. That's ok because I'd rather have someone smarter than me (nearly anybody) make...

The valve is nice, I'd be adding a PID right off the bat anyway though.
