I have a friend that had a pipe break in his house and long story short, had a lot of rust damage to some of his guns. I've agreed to try to help him touch up some of the bluing. I've watched a...

Thanks so much for clearing that up. Your description is spot-in with regards to the shoulder and very little taper. I'll do some more research on Mr. Ackley.

I acquired some odd lots of brass from a guy and had one bag labeled "6mm ACK Improved" and have no idea what it is. All of the brass appears to have been processed (still has some lube on the cases)...

Winger Ed; that was a good one, I'll be sure to remember the player. Some of the units I've looked at are self-contained, everything in one unit.

I live on the west coast of FL and we have a lot of coyotes here to the point that they've become a real problem by killing small pets in pretty developed areas. A good friend lost one of his dogs...

Bugging in myself; had hoped to be further out in the country but that didn't happen. Good to go here with AR-47, G23 and multiple loaded mags for both. Also have Marlin Mod 60 with lots of 22 LR.

Thanks for the feedback. Yes, I've done some kayaking already so I know about some of what you suggested. In FL, most people prefer the 'sit on top' type which are 'self-bailing' which is a good...

Just about to purchase a kayak. I live in FL and there's some great kayak fishing in the flats and inland bay areas. Any tips; do's/don't to pass along?

Great looking knife. I have some that I want to put new handles on and wondered if there's a company that sells knife making parts, like to studs to connect the handle to the tang.

Welcome Shane! I'm an old member (in more ways than one); been here quite some time but not actively casting so didn't contribute a whole lot for all the past years. Just now getting started casting...

Thanks for all the info guys; newbie here too.

Where is the best place to buy powder now? I went to Eastwood's website and 1 lb. quantities are back ordered. I don't have to have Eastwood but just don't know where else to buy it.

I like RCBS and Forster but as others have said, and I agree, it mostly has to do with the guy pulling the handle. Consistency is the name of the game. For precision reloads, I like my Forster Co-Ax...

Don, roger that; tons of crap to skim off the top.

I also learned that it's not particularly good if it's a bit windy (slows down the process) but it sure was nice blowing all the crap from the burn off the paper and glue towards the neighbors, that...

A guy recently gave me about 350 lbs of lead sheeting that came from the demo of a dental office. It have been stuck to drywall to prevent x-rays from penetrating the wall into the next room. It was...

Wet or dry tumble on the 40 brass? They sure got nice and shiny!

Thanks! So, I figure checked is gas check and PC means powder coated. I acquired a Lyman 450 some time ago and will actually use lube. Appreciate your response and I'll check out the Lee mould.

I'm a late bloomer and although I've been on the forum for a long time, got sidetracked and just now getting around to starting to cast some boolits. I love to shoot my SKS and wondered what the best...

I'm new to casting boolits and seems like the c309-180 might be a good one for me. Have a Savage Model 10, 24", 1:10 twist. It loves the 175 grn. SMK's with Varget so it's great to see and hear input...

My comment was nothing to do about gender, rather size (and power).

Some really good comments here. What no one seems to mention here is the power of the Holy Spirit. In his initial post, Blackwater said, that the Holy Spirit was a 'little' part of Jesus. As others...

Thanks for the comments and advice; just weighed one, 26 lb. 10 oz. each.

I stumbled onto these in an old shed and for the longest time didn't know what they were. I recently found out that they are linotype ingots that are lowered into the pot on a linotype machine. Not...

A buddy just bought a property near me. The former owner was a class III builder and had built a range on the property. My friend found a bunch of lead in one of his sheds and gave it to me (about...
