An interesting note you might include: the earliest use I have heard of the term "assault rifle" was the Nazi Germany prototype StG44 which stood for Sturm Gewher, which means to storm or assault (...

The only case I've heard of is N.J. vs. Bias. Cited by Ayoob as his example of hand loading confusing the issue in court because it could not be proven conclusively which loading killed his wife. The...

Getting real cold and windy here. Ohio isn't quite like Siberia, but I cast 800 Makarov and about 60 for the Mosin 7.62 X 54R

I did this too. I used T-nuts under the table so they stay put in the wood while the bolts are out. Cheap, versatile, and solid way to use a tiny 2' X 4' workbench for multiple presses.

I bought a Remington 770 in .243 win. over a year ago. My first brand new rifle was to be properly broken in, cleaned with a tipton cleaning rod and lucas bore guide. By time I gathered all the...

I was off and loading with the lee anniversary kit right away as everything needed but dies and case length gauge comes with it. I load about 150 rounds a week. Likewise the loadall for shotshells...

Probably clean just as good as the ss pins everywhere except inside the primer pockets! ;-)

Lee has some good stuff and some not so great. My bench is almost all Lee except for a chamfer tool. Lees won't fit the outside of short cases, and I trim 1,000's of 9mm down to make Makarov. They...

49, raised super-liberal, never was allowed to touch a G-word growing up, so naturally rebelled later in life. Been hunting and shooting since early '90s. Been shooting a whole lot more since 9X18...

Very true! I now seat and crimp in separate operations instead of shaving the lead off the sides of the boolit and squashing it inside the case. I have been reloading jacketed for over forty minutes!...

I bid $50.

I already sort/load/shoot the two nines! (There must be a .380 in my future!)[smilie=l:



Mail 'em to me!:Bright idea: probably some Macks and Lugers in there!

Love my 9mm. Ruger LC9. Bought it because factory ammo was cheap. My Feg pa63 is more accurate with cast right now, but I am in some pain after two boxes. With the Ruger, I rarely leave the range...

I bought one and tried it, but the rims on battery cup primers kept jumping on top of each other and jamming the feed ramp. It took me more time to jiggle the primer tool when it was working, clear,...

Name comes from a trip to the local gun show where I plunked down $79 for an M91-30 that my son could call his own. A fellow outside asked me what it was, so I responded in my very best...

Thanks, Rocky! I do use trimmed luger brass, 70 of the last 200 Mak cases I shot haven't re-entered the atmosphere yet. (I found your article "Mak Attack" while searching, BTW. Very good piece!) I...

I have searched and lurked far and wide for any cast boolit load data for my PA-63 using the Lee 95 gr. round nose with Universal Clays. Unique is reported to be similar to Universal Clays, but I am...

When I was maybe 14, my brother and I used to fly Estes model rockets. Soon enough we discovered that you can hammer a D-12-0 booster engine and extract crumbled up C-class toy propellant. This made...

Wow! bring a cold ingot into a warm, humid shop and moisture condenses on it. Drop it in the pot, Wham! Thank you very much! I would have repeated that mistake as surely as history. :goodpost:

From one Noob to another, I had many, many questions about cast boolits covered by: From Ingot to Target www.lasc.us/Fryxell_Book_textonly2.pdf Read, and re-read. Hope it helps you as much as it did...

Now I have a plan. I will buy the Lee 312-165-2R to start, (just ran out to the shed to measure some of my old cases, got .312 on average). The best shooting commercial brand I've shot is Wolf Gold....

My attempts to slug my 91/30 resulted in several broken dowel sections. 1/8 oz. eagle claw egg sinkers .358 dia. would not start at all. 1/8 oz. water gremlin egg sinkers .305~308 dia. started finger...

C**p! just got a lee 10 lb. bottom pour from Cabelas for $54. Seemed like an improvement over my cast iron skillet until just now. I really hate being ignorant, almost as much as I hate being stupid!...

Well, my guns might not be the best ones shooting, but I will bet they will be the last ones shooting. Charcoal is available in any camp fire, sulphur and potassium nitrate would be left ignored at...

I can't help correcting people who call a "cartridge" a "bullet". For no logical reason, it forces me to launch a lengthy explanation of primers and cases every single time. [smilie=b: I feel your...
