Please don’t post this! What if someone had Bullseye or similar powder and took your advice. Definitely way too hot. Probably about a bomb going off in your hand.
Very unsafe to load a full case...

My 336 likes the Lyman 31141 sized at 309. Gas checked, powder coated and grease lube. Loaded on top of 29 grains of IMR 4895. On the road right now and don’t remember the OAL. If I remember right,...

If you might ever want to convert to a 4 hole, now might be the time, before you get more 3 holers. I believe Lee sells a 4 hole top section that fits in the place of the 3 holes top plate. At least...

I just ran a search on fleabay and came up with several options. Lyman’s from $60, Lees from $40.
Just saying…..

Are these round nose, flat or hollow point bullets?

Another plus with APP is that it makes its own lube. You do not have to use BP compatible lube with it. You can use a bare bullet, powder coated, smokeless lube or BP lube. This is a nice featur3 for...
APP. American Pioneer Powder. Web site here.

Use it by VOLUME. Loosely fill case to base of bullet. Do not compress the powder when...

My Marlin 336 is micro groove also. Here is a 50 yard target with a Lyman 31141 powder coated bullet. Weigh about 175 grains and were sized at 309. Pushed with 29 grains of IMR 4895.
Not too bad...
Might I suggest using APP instead of real BP? Cleanup with water and a lot less corrosive. Also easier to load as it doesn’t get compressed in the case prior to installing the bullet. Also lots more...

Do you mean for a Star sizer? Is Starliner a model of the Star sizers?

I have 250 Speer Lawman (brass), 45 Federal Tactical (nickel) and about 30 loose mixed brass.
Speer and Federal in original boxes. I was at the range when they were shot. Once fired.
10 cents...

If your thumb is hitting anything when you cycle the action, you need to retrain your thumb. I shoot cowboy action with a 92 and keep my thumb out away from the action.
But you should also take...

Go to the hardware store and pick up a Century C-530 spring. Only a couple of bucks. Work great it mine. They may be a bit different length, but they are lighter wire and work great.

Your math is a bit off. There are 113.52 9mm casings per pound. 80# x 113.52 would equal about 9,081 cases. Still a lot, but not 160,000.

Might want to give these guys a call. They seem to have a lot of obscure stuff.

Forum: Gas Checks
Another thing to note. You can use a gas check on a softer bullet and not have leading. This works great for a hunting bullet that you want to keep soft (maybe 50/50 pure and wheel weights) for...
I too have been having issues uploading pics to S&S. Hope it gets fixed.
