I bought my RCBS Rock Chucker, used back in the early '70s. Except for a tome in storage, after which it needed a little cleanup, it's been pumping out good rifle , and pistol ammo, and formed a lot...

Of the choices, I'd have to go with a .444; the .45-70would be 2nd, but I still love my .35 Rem.
This is one of the BEST forums I've been on! You can ask any kind of "low priority" question, and get real thoughtful answers! Thank you all. This is a slightly older LEE mold, I did find the handle...
I picked up a used LEE 2 cavity mold, at a LGS recently, that had a "too good a price" to pass on. Got it home, and noticed that the halves didn't want to align up when you closed the handles. The...
TNsailorman: Beerd got it right. That's their web site. I happened to find mine at one of the LGSs, here in the Tulsa area.

Being a little budget conscious, I picked a 1791, for my old S&W Victory, 3". It's curved to fit close to the body, and holds the firearm securely.

I have a Marlin 336SC, in .35 Rem. I think it's on of the best all-a-round cartridges. That being said; if I have to choose I'd go with the .444 Marlin, with a 22" barrel. It can be "downloaded" to...
