I do.

I was in Tulsa but couldn't go to the show.

I have 1,700 lbs of range lead at 8bhn. It seems to do good till about 1,100 w/o gas check. PC seems to get me to 1,200.

That would be the cheapest I've seen in a while. Glad got an 8 pounder and some one pounders in 2019. Mid to high $20's / lb back then.

I've seen AA 5744 around which is same a Buffalo rifle but it is expensive in the $50-70 range. Haven't seen H4895 in a while. Only thing I've seen that is close is IMR4895 which I've had to resort...

The process I use is to take an unsized, fired 44 case and melt soft lead in the case about half full. Clean the inside of the case well prior to melting the lead. Knock it out with an inertia...

I trim my straight wall cartridges to a consistent length as I've found a consistent length is important for accuracy especially if roll crimping. Since I trim my brass i have to chamfer the inside...

Thanks. So sounds like starting around 8 grains and working up should work. I've got a chronograph to keep and eye on things while developing. I do all the other stuff suggested as routine in...

I've got 8lbs of Maxim CSB-1 that uses Hodgdon Universal load data as a starting point.

I can't seem to find any Universal load data for lead in a 30-30 WCF. I would assume it should work given...

My dad has 231 and HP-38 that has the exact same lot number. So, just different labels from Same lot.

I've seen this issue come up on other forums with the exact same picture. While I can't offer a solution, you are not the first to report this. And, while I'm a big Dillon fan, just be aware your...

This is what I do and works fine.
