MP has one that's solid, penta or round hollowpoint. Runs great in my wheel guns and levers.

I have that mold. Had issues with the nose size in AR. Bought the Noe nose sizer but haven't gotten around to fooling with it yet. Also was experimenting with converting x39 brass. Worked OK, just be...

I’ve used it to great success with the Lee 170 in 30-30. Don’t remember the charge off hand but the accuracy was there.

That’s exactly what I did and it worked out perfect. Also, acetone releases gas… I forgot that and mixed up a batch in an old glass screw top jar. Several hours later whilst mixing it up, I repainted...

I did have to do some tweaking with the solvent ratio but it wasn't anything major. Ran the first coat as instructed to create a super light "primer" like base and then I added a few mils of extra...

I've had a jar of hitek sitting around for several years now and resisted. PC worked for me and I didn't see any reason to deviate. Well, I'm OCD and I have to stand them up up to bake because even...

I have 3 dogs now and my dad has 4. Every single one has been a wandering stray that someone abandoned and they're all part of our family now. The most recent one is a black lab/bulldog mix that is...

I second the Skull Shaver series of "Pitbulls". I use it to shave my head and face all at once. It works wet or dry and has deployed to several disaster zones with me. A single charge will last up to...

I've had great success with the MP 180gr Sil mold out of my 10 inch barrel.

Super easy, I do it regularly. Just print off an ORM-D sticker from google, tape it to the box and do everything else regular. Take it to your local UPS HUB, not store and they'll take your money......

I forage and scavenge all my lead and having several catastrophic mishaps with pots of 40 plus lbs, I can tell you that jeans will not prevent a blister. They'll prevent third degree burns but not a...

This is what I use to size, havent had any issues so far. I just unscrew the Rock Chucker collar and thread in the Lee. Had it for a year or two.

I would almost certainly think not. Most every 350 Legend ive seen has been .355 bore. You would have to slug your bore to be certain but id gamble to say its in the .355 ballpark and not .357. You...

Cheaper and easier than the premade heated pet pads is a seedling pad. Can be had on Amazon for about 10 bucks and waterproof. I used to put one under the cats blanket on cold nights and they loved...

I like the simplicity of having as few loads floating around as possible. Todays hollowpoint molds from MP and NOE and such will run as fast as cheaper non HP molds so I find a good HP that my guns...

My first and personal guess would be that typically you don't push a cast to jacketed velocities so I make up that difference generally with a heavy for caliber projectile. 150 would be pretty light...

I haven't tried the 180 SIL HP in 7.62x39 yet because I get amazing performance with the Lee 160 but I can tell you that its lights out in 300 blackout.

Lions mane is pretty simple to grow. The kits are good as gifts and to tinker with but if you plan on doing it for your own cultivation, I would suggest investing in some mason jars and unicorn bags....

Second the MP heavy. Its an absolute tack driver out of all my guns with a stout load of super slow powder. I use VV N350 and can keep it on paper at 100 yards out of a Glock 17.

I run MP 311 – 180 SIL GC HP out of my 10 inch and 16 inch blackout AR. Its not suppressed but it shoots great for me. Cast softish and powdercoated, its a great pig round.
