I use an Ingento paper cutter for both the strips and the angle cuts. 318424

I spent the day at the rifle club yesterday. I cast and loaded three different PP bullets. One is patched to grove dia. the next one patched to bore dia. and the last one patched duel dia. I shot 25...

.405? You must be patching to groove dia.? Or do you not wrap the .405 base? I'm not familiar with duel diameter. It appears the base is patched to groove dia. and the rest is bore dia. Correct? What...

I use a slight taper crimp. That may be my problem. thanks for pointing that out. This is my first year with paper patch bullets. So I'm learning as I go. So you're suggesting not to crimp and just...

I'm paper patching to bore dia. Hand seating bullets. I drop tube also

Thanks for the recipe. I've been working up some loads, trying to find the sweet spot. last 40 rounds was with 63 gr. I'll try 65 and then 67.I'm finding the more I increase the better the...

its a 40-65

that could be the problem. I use a bore wiper with 2 felts and it is pretty saturated. even though I run a dry patch behind it. I do anneal all my cases. I only use a .030 veg wad on top of the...

I just loaded and shot my first paper patch bullets. Can someone explain what I have going on here. The cartridge has what seems to be a hard baked on black ring around the lip of the cartridge after...

As I stated before I wanted a 40-65. So instead of a 45-70 with a 20 twist barrel it is now a 40-65 with a 14 twist. Also instead of a 5lb trigger pull it now has a 2lb trigger pull. Also, instead of...

Super excited! I was looking for a 40-65 but was having trouble finding one. So I found a new Uberti 1885 Highway in 45-70. Took it to the range and fired 40 rounds through it, cleaned it, packed in...

I may have come up with a way to lube the reduced band bullet with the lubrisizer. I don't size my bullets in the lubrisizer so I'm running a .410 bullet into a .410 die. the bullet measures .399 at...

Oh yeah, I forgot to mention, I'm using Swiss BPCR White Label lube its from LS Stuff

how bout I load a harder allow say 16-1 to avoid nose slump? also keep in mind that top band is reduced so that top groove isn't holding as much lube as the rest.

The bullet is a 40 cal. 420 gr. money bullet. The barrel is a 30" 14 twist .40-65 load will be Swiss 1.5 https://castboolits.gunloads.com/asset.php?fid=258220&uid=60272&d=1662034693

I have a 4 grease groove money bullet with the front band reduced. When using a lubrisizer, if I'm careful I can get all 4 grooves lubed. But because of the reduced front band there are times when I...

Since the 40-82 silhouette/ Crossno is basically a stretched 40-65 case. can 40-65 neck sizing die be used on a fire formed 40-82 silhouette case? I'm thinking by backing off the die that extra .300...

back ordered

Thank you for the offer but the way I understand it is the Redding 40-82 WCF has a slight bottleneck and the 40-82 silhouette does not. The 40-82 silhouette won't chamber the 40-82 WCF. Or should I...

Yes spell check can make me look foolish at times

I spoke with CH4D and their 40-82 dies won't be available for approx. 18 months. My question here is does anyone have a set of these dies that I could possibly rent to run 100 cases. Or would they be...

Does anyone have a drawing of Dave Crossno's 40-82 silhouette cartridge? thanks, Rob

There's not much published out there for load data with smokeless for 40-82. I did notice in my Lyman Cast Bullet Handbook they do list load data for the Sharps 40-70 and the case is a tapered case...

According to Green Mountain Barrels that would be # 3.5 What cal. is yours 45-70?

Can any Uberti high wall owners tell me the size of the barrel? is it a #3, #3.5, #4? or can you measure across the flats at the breach and tell me the size? Thanks Robert
