Hmmm - I wonder
if I just shook the whole oven....:kidding:

Therein lies my question: Being it takes my oven 5 minutes to come back up to temp, they would have only been exposed to 200 deg for about 1 min when I open the door to shake them around (at the 6...

Took the plunge and bought some red copper (liquid) from Donnie at Bayou Bullets. After reading through about 1500 *whew* of the 3540 posts here, I'm sure I have the process down before trying this...

I've perused this thread rather carefully, and the first mention of gas checks I see is Angus's post for the 300 blkout. I could have missed a few posts (old eyes).
I plan to try this for a 500 S&W...

Well I think they're only worth about ten cents each since they got nail holes in'em, but just to be fair I'd give you about 15 cents each... :kidding:

In a couple of parished/towns down here, my buddy says that lead boots are still code, so anytime he does a local job, I'm in luck.

I asked him what they run new, and they're anywhere from...

SWEEEET!!!




Now why didn't I think of that........:killingpc

Have a friend in the roofing business, and he saved me about 25-30 roof boots (nice sooooffft lead) with the promise of more to come. (free [smilie=w:)

Most of these have a roll looking crimp...

I've read several posts on using (or not using) 9mm dies to reload .380. My question is just the opposite.

I understand a .380 sizing/decapping die CAN'T be used to size 9mm.

Is there any...

Haven't made any this year, but still have dozens of bottles (3-4 years old)and 1 5-gal carboy each of apple, strawberry, blueberry, wild blackberry & muskedine (almost ready to rack and bottle)-...

Personally, I think that Hollowpoint has spent quite a few $ (on aluminum blocks, hardware, glue sticks, re-tooling HP molds, etc), not to metion what his TIME is worth (my time is worth about...

For those of you close enough to a Cabela's outlet, primers and powder are 20% off through 10-21-11. Coupon is in the flyer by the door. Winchester primers $32.99 - $6.60 = $26.40/ 1k (+ tax, of...

I'm loading the Lee 105 SWC (358-105) sized down to .356 also. It' weighs out to an almost perfect 110 gr using straight WW alloy. Never tried Bullseye, but having great results using HP-38....

Thanks GP, that's what I was lookin for. I don't have a chrono just yet - hopefully soon. Guess I'll try to get them all to within 1 or 2 thous (not at one sitting, of course)
Incidently, I'm...

What I'm getting at is, if I pick a midpoint (say 1.279) to set my flare and roll crimp dies with, that will give me +/- .004 variance.
Will .004 make that much of a difference in the consistency of...

I just got 2000 new Starline brass in .357, and have a few questions before I waste any unnessesary time prepping them.

I've found the general concensus here is to size before trimming. I ran...

I've got citric acid and acid blend - just never...

Same thing happened to my six-cavity. I let my nephew try his hand at casting a few rounds, and he didn't close the sprue plate all the way (negating the mechanical advantage of the cam). Even...

Same here - have great results - good accuracy and no leading at all. Of course I'm not pushing my .357 or .38 158gr boolits over 1100fps. But for quick, easy lubing for mass produced practice...

Does the cat food help?;)

If that's the case, then our "nookelier" weapons aren't really "weapons" until we use them, right? :kidding:
But I'll take G.W.'s pronunciation over B.O.'s (body odor?) anyday, as long as we get to...

ditto!!

Awww, geeeeez - it's gonna take awhile to get THAT visual out of my head:shock:

No one's telling you to BELIEVE these "anonymous folk" (who probably have more experience than some of the idiots the Feds hire) - they're just warning you to GET IT IN WRITING.
Case in point: I...
