The reason for sacrificing a red heifer is a purification ceremony, to allow for the construction of the third temple… correct?
Normally, I would recommend HS-6 in this scenario. However, I understand your location makes buying powder more challenging than mine. So, I wonder if seating your boolit deeply can help you reduce...
I have experienced this with Ramshot’s Enforcer in .357 Sig. The Lyman load data was very compressed at the start and the max load absolutely would not fit. I did get to max book velocity, but just...

The oxides in the spout cool off too quickly for this hot-cleaning to be successful. I tried with my 10 lb Lee Drip-O-Matic. Pouring alloy out soup bowl style works best for me. I dropped my...

The UN has another vote on Monday to demand a cease-fire. The US vetoes cease-fire demands when the hostages are not mentioned. China & Russia veto cease-fire demands when the return of hostages is...

No one has ever been able to imagine and demonstrate all factors of bullet design that impact the pressures developed for a given velocity.

I empty from the bottom until it barely drips out the valve, and then pour the remaining 2-ish pounds out the top of the pot to help flush any oxides out of the valve. Cleaning the valve is the only...

The exact bullet matters, especially when you’re going after +P charges. Are you using that Oregon Trails bullet?

I got 800 fps from a 3” barrel, using 7.5 grains (+P) of True Blue under the NOE 45-237-RN seated to 1.275” OACL with CCI LPP in Starline +P brass. Underwood Ammo rounds marked 1,000 fps & +P give...

I have microcrystalline wax that does this. To be complete - I have some left-overs from experimenting with the FWFL recipe, that includes MC wax and paraffin wax. It leaves a charred skin on the...

How hard is it to cast for a .22 cal rifle?

Make sure you have the proper grade respirator.

I use copper sulphate (eg Zep Root Kill) as a safer way to remove zinc from lead.

Do not use generic 158 grain load data. This boolit seats too deep.

I can’t eat beans anymore because FODMAPs tear me up. I thought to myself: “dang, I can’t eat chili anymore.” I had no idea chili recipes without beans even existed.

I have two copies of the NOE 454-237-RN that weigh 10 grains different. Given that only two molds made in the same year, the variance across all of their molds will be wider.

I have concerns for anyone who calls themselves a good Christian.

Besides that, I look at your second point differently. I once spent months studying...
For bottom feeders, Sigs look pretty good. I have the P320 in .357 Sig & .40 S&W. The .357 Sig is accurate and reliably fires any ammo I can load. The .40S&W is very, very picky about ammo...

The point isn’t how I feel nor what you are trying to communicate. The point is that there are people who do not know/believe in GOD reading posts here, and these types of statements will not help...

Different people have vastly different interpretations of what’s going on, and different judgments regarding the truthfulness of what various folks say what is going on over there. I doubt more than...
