I think that I will go PP in time. I have had a dabble but didn't get anything stellar. My logic is based on the 1:20 444 that I could shoot a full load of 8208 and 310gr MP cast with no leading and...

I have commissioned one of your fellow citizens to produce a 375 H+H barrel for my Blaser R8. I sold a ripper JM 444 to fund the purchase of this rifle and want to have a barrel specifically for...

230474I added another 2 coats after that and loaded them at Hodgdon minimum for H322 and up 2 grains in 1/2 gr incrs. I might be being a bit ambitious but twist is only 1:14

I am doing real time report on my first PC effort. I am waiting on a 3rd bake of 220gr HP for 358 win. I figure I got about 1900fps with lubed GC'd RCBS 200. Going to start these bad boys at 40grs of...

Just been working up a load with 431244 that DUTCHMAN passed on to me in a bulk buy. It bumps down to load and feed in 444 with surprising repetivity. Have to fine tune for...

I got the plain base Juddy. I am working loads up, don't have a chronograph. 4.5grs of AP70 is making 22magnum look puny. I am loading for a single shot 25-20 I had reamed out to 256 win mag. JIM

I have used the 25720 plain base made from 20:1 Pb/Sn. in the 25-20 over 3.5grs of trail boss they are subsonic. Twist rate is 1:14. At 50 yards these bullets were close to my full house sight...

I have mine down as .25 I'd be interested to hear if you calculated the actual BC. JIM

"I noticed sisterjim had a top base mount on his, he might know more than me."

All I know I gleaned from here. The base is for a TC Encore from CCOP, I fitted it by rubbing it on...

"I intended to have lined to .32 S&W Long"

I was looking for a barrel in 30-30 but never found. I would be interested in it if you didn't see project through. In what way is it ruined? Shot out or...

I figure I'll be able to load some lighter shells to protect the stock more than my shoulder. It has a hairline crack behind the tang. I noticed that Numrichs has a new stock might go that route if I...

I'm impressed that I made it here too. Didn't get here 'til I was 40 year old batchelor. Nearly 50 with wife and three weans. Lots of barter here not much cash.

Mine is an early model 219 in 25-20. The cases are ejected from the breech about the same speed I shoot the boolits out the muzzle. The 25-20's are hard to come by. I have perfected a technique where...

I'm not far behind you. My Apex Bergara has 1:10

Interesting thread I am just about to embark on loading for a break action single shot .223. I just purchased that mold here on S+S. What is the twist rate of your barrel on which you have made...

Thank you to all the contributors to the forum who have remained focused when discussing cast in the 6.5mm rifles. I wanted to show some results that have given me some confidence that with a little...

I'm interested to hear how this progresses. I just bought Apex Bergara in 308. Twist rate is 1:11. Want to work up a full power combination with a cast boolit. I figure it will need something in the...

I have a Savage 24V in 30-30 and one in 357mag both over 20 gauge. I figure that the 357mag would easy ream out to 35-30-30. I could move the 30-30 on then as I prefer the 35 for cast. Any thoughts...

Here is the finished target not as pretty as the others; might try the walking target next. This one is 1/2" stainless plate. I added the sleeves to protect wire rope. I'm hoping it will be strong...

I'm just making this with my neighbour's grandson, he's got an unusual diagnosis and no dad! I figured we'd build up our relationship slowly before going live. I taught him how to scrounge in the...

I was shooting off a greasy fallen tree and kneeling in the hole where the root ball had been torn out the ground. The air was calm but the forecast shower was imminent. I didn't leave enough time...

I rethunk my sample set for loading and went 14.5-16.5 grains 2205 (4227). The best groups were 15.5 and 16.5. The 16 group had a flyer, high left. I reckon I had a banana from bumping nose...

I'm shooting a GC 266454 100 grain loverin style ACWW/Pb 75:25. I am getting 2" groups at 100 yards with AP100. I'd like to try a heavier boolit so I can get a bit more powder in the 6.5x57R case...

Did you crimp it in the groove to feed in 94 Legacy?

I am considering that coversion in a single shot Savage which I believe is worth less than my lever gun that cost me $150. If you decide against it I would like to offer you a decent trade/cash on...
