I breezed through the group buys and didnt see anything current. I am looking for a group buy mold for use in these old classics. Anyone know of anything I didnt see?

My semi 1919 runs on anything my Garand eats and it is gas operated. Should run fine with cast, I will try it this summer. Gives me an excuse to use my new Mihec brass mold!

Yea, starting middle of the published load. I will seat a little deeper and shoot a few and see what they look like. I think I will back the charge down a couple tenths even if these look ok.

I bought a bag of Frontier 110 gr plated bullets to load until I get some cast up and sized. It has been 20 years since I loaded any carbine rounds last. Looks like I will need to seat these a little...

I have both Lyman books. All loads in both suggest fillers even with Unique.

I have a new Marlin lever in 45/70 with a box of 350 gr boolits waiting to be loaded. Whats some good lite charges without using fillers?

Cajun, did you see this months Handloader mag? A lot of backpeddling on the Blackhorn 209 article from last month, even a full page ad from the manufacturer. I always assume these guys are the...

Chris, is there a thread somewhere about the dished punches? I assume these will center the boolit better. What little checks I have seated were with your flat punch. These seemed to work out well. I...

Now I can try them in my very own 625! :Fire: Sorry Dale, I was all busy today getting ready for a work trip to KS tomorrow. With the snow I didnt get a chance to drop it off.

Do you need a compression die to load 45LC? I have a 55 with the drop tube and plan to start loading some. The boolit seating doesnt compress the powder enough? First time BP cartridge reloading.

Cajun, I am about to join you brother. All I have sized up are some 200 gr round/flats at the moment. I want to load some of these in the cowboy special brass with BP. Should I use FF or FFF?

Ok, it is advertised as less corrosive than black powder. A few here are saying it is worse. I bought a jug of it to play with and see what it will do. You know how things go when you get bored. I...

I have also seen this in some factory ammo I have shot in the past. Never paid much attention to it. I know I am under minimum in the books. I keep this around 700fps to use in our indoor range at...

45ACP, 4 grs behind a 200 gr SWC produceds 700 fps and leaves blowback one side of the case. Not the pistol, and this also happens to another fellow reloader. Almost looks like tarnish from heat,...

Did they drop these? I was ready to order a 45LC set and looks like they dont make them anymore?

Duke just turned me on to this also.

Gary, that 355 gr from Ranchdog looks good too. I would rather have the larger grease grooves though.

I just picked up a Marlin Cowboy in 45/70. Any group buys current for a good plinking boolit and what diameter and weight should I be lookiing for? My first 45/70.

They need to be cleaned, but not near as corrosive. I have 10 lbs of black laying around that I shoot in my flints all the time. I would never use a substitute in my front stuffers, just wanted to...

I just bought a small jug of this at Bass Pro tonight. Only $29. I just want to play with some and load some 44 special and 45 LC. Article about it in latest Handloader mag.

Thanks Robert, I will give mine a try and lube it up first. Overall I like the old ones, although they were a little loose. I still like using these verses priming on the press when I use my single...

Are you guys using any fillers with these loads? Reason for asking is I casted up some 165 grn boolits for my 308 would like some help with a load to start with. I have not shot any cast through my...

I just brought one home. Anyone used one yet. This is the new improved model with the square tray. I havent had time to even look at it yet.

Any home hardware store or auto parts store will have the fittings. Lowes, Home Depot, just check around their air tools and ask for some help. They should have all you need and its rather...

MiHec has agreed to make some 4 cavity round ball molds in brass if anyone is interested on the Group Buy threads. The brass molds he has made so far are the best I have seen. Here is the link if...

I just got a .480 bore 1 1/8" across flats, light benchrest barrel with false muzzle. I mainly build and shoot flints. I would like to build this into a flint but am having trouble finding something...
