A quick question on this design: Can anyone tell me the diameter of the nose at several points, say .100" and .200" ahead of the crimp groove? I ask because I have several N.O.E., .314" molds that...

The Shiloh Sharps has sold. Thanks, FastShot!

Clum,

I could find no identifying stamps on the sights. The tang sight is a non-windgauge, friction sliding elevation, not suitable for serious competition. The globe front, also unidentified, has...

Listing for a good friend who needs to send a few down the road. If this is not permitted, I apologize, and please delete.

I just received an RCBS mold that I bought from sliphammer, and the transaction was as smooth as could be! Also the mold is in wonderful condition! Thanks very much, Jim!

Hey, Mark,

You're certainly welcome, and CR is perfectly fine. With my pin I checked the cut on the top with a machinist's square. But next I stood the pin on its top end on a small steel plate I...

Yes I did, Mark. Over the years I've had two dies with pins cut at a slight angle -- a .309" and a .311". When I first phoned RCBS to tell them of the problem, the CS rep. explained that my pin had...

Mark,

Check the top surface of the ejector pin in that die. I have had two where they had been cut at an angle. RCBS will send you a new one if yours is angled.

Hey, Don,

The Golden Gun Club shoots cowboy levergun silhouettes three times a month the year round, weather permitting, of course. The shoots are: rifle cartridge on the second Sunday of each...

I'm looking forward to that too, Don.

Thanks, guys.

Don, I hope we get to shoot together next year.

Chuck,

I miss the guys at McDonald.

Well, guys, I must admit that I got carried away with this CPA order. The rifle will be a silhouette model with a number 4, 30 inch, part octagon barrel in .40-65 with extra barrels in .45-90 (4...

Thanks, Lead Pot. My CPA 44 1/2 should be shipped any day now!

Lead Pot,

Is your finish pure tung oil or tung oil finish such as Formby's? Thanks!

Don,

I'm hoping to get to Watkins on Saturday. We'll see. Take care, and I do love that rifle!

Hey, Don,

She's a beauty! I'm guessing a 90? What's she weigh?

It was great to meet you and your wife at the Colorado State shoot!

Kermit Hoke's sights are engraved on both sides, as well. And I'm pretty sure that MVA will engrave the scale on the right side for left handers on request.

Hi, Ed,

If I were back in Pa, I'd go to Lewistown with you, old buddy!


Craig,

Dusty Ed runs the buffalo shoots at the Mainville Sportsmen's Club, just a few miles south of I-80, exit 242...

Craig,

Tell Carolyn that for her score to count she has to cast her own bullets! :-D

Thanks for the great videos, Craig. Now I'm homesick!

I received mine last Thursday. It looks great! Thanks for running this buy, Jim. And thank you, Swede, for a high quality mould.

Just a note about the extra length of fiber optic material you see lying along the barrel. I no longer use this as NRA rules stipulate that the fiber optic can be no longer that the globe or hood. So...

markly,

I have the same rifle in .32-20, but I removed the tang safety (and eliminated the rebounding hammer.) Then it was easy to mount a tang sight. Here's picture of my rifle:
...

Mine came today also. Thanks, Al!

I've been using one of theperfessor's nut drivers on my Lyman 450 for about a year, I'd guess. It's one of those tools that, when you use it once, you'll wonder how you did without it all those...
