I tried some factory 185 gr. Remington’s. They shot pretty decent, need to look at the lighter side for cast boolits?

Just picked one up for a song, never loaded or casted for 44 mag.
Boolit recommendations?

I might take you up on that if said mold is in good ( better than mine) condition.

My model 66 is the same.

Let it be.

Exactly! I don't have enough primers to burn the powder I have. One would need need near 20,000 primers to burn 8 lbs of bullseye in 38 special wadcutter loads.

Most people don't realize that.

Sheels in Eau Claire had a decent inventory. Was going to grab some unique and bullseye. But figured I have plenty for now.
Will be stocking up soon though being an election year...... You never...

I wouldn't buy one for myself. But I bought one yesterday for my wife....she likes it, probably because it's shiny!

That's pretty funny!
My dad tells everyone the way he tests a batch of kraut. When he thinks it's done, he eats a handful right out of the crock. Waits three days, if he doesn't die, it's good to go!

Timney triggers drop in with a little whittling. I never adjusted the weight, as the factory settings were 10 times better than original 2 stage military.

I've been shooting the 150 grain version of the 358430 since I started casting. It was my first mold and shot thousands through various 38s and 357s. Hard to find a load that didn't shoot good.
I...

Lol....that was terrible!!!!

I'm going to watch it again!!

Keep looking, they are around. I bundled a pair of beauty's about a year ago for $750 out the door. Both mid seventies 336's. Jm stamp no button. 30/30 and .35 rem.

I would lay down a 4-6 inch bed of crushed gravel. Let time and tires compact it. Add as needed.
I see no need for a 3" breaker rock base unless you are building a county highway.

They look like Steyr rifles, not your everyday brush beater.

I shot my tightest .357 mag group with herco. The data was from an outdated Lyman manual. I later found the load was way over pressure.

Thank you Ruger for your extra strong revolvers!

For that I would look around for a Brazilian Mauser. DWM manufactured. Some nice examples are still able to be found.

Will you bring back DA revolvers?

I've been using plain Jane penzoil two stroke oil. I don't know what makes synthetic a better choice.
I haven't had any trouble with it.

Tried these in .38 special. Poi was high to the sights of my model 10 s&w. Accurate enough for a defense load. 4 grains of alliant bullseye.
Chrono...

This was the answer I was looking for. Thanks! The cases were random batch of unknown origin. I was going to anneal first, and then go through the FL sizing and trimming steps. That should explain...

That's funny, I just pulled the trigger on one tonight. I bought the Caldwell supreme kit with the tripod and infrared light bars.
I just returned from the basement playing with it, throwing some...

Hopefully I will get a chance to shoot tomorrow. Then I'll give a full report. I have .38 special and .357 magnum samples loaded up.

Agree with the lathe comment. Surprising what you can accomplish with basic tools and ingenuity.
Master the file, and you are 1/2 way there.

I sent in a set of mold blocks expecting to get the "run around." No way! Got a brand new set within a week.

I remember mom having a carving set she got out every thanksgiving. The knife, fork and steel were all stag handled and wore a Sheffield England hallmark.
That was one sharp knife!
