As in CH Tool and Die - who make the really nice reloading dies ?

I didn't know they made swaging tools

The SKS is my "Sh#t hits the fan" gun and plinking toy

I'm with you 100%
.308 and 30-06 are my go to calibers.

Unfortunately it was so long ago I no longer remember (Give you an idea how long, I had just bought the gun covered in cosmoline for $99 a few months previous)

All I remember that it was a...

Never mind, for some reason I can't put up a post there

I've no use for this. Go check the for sale forum

So forget the shell deflector or side mount - this is something I hadn't considered.
Anyone converted their SKS to a bullpup ?

This looks interesting

My confidence in this rifle is pretty good. I got lucky with a very accurate one (back when they were $99)
I immediately lost the wood put a synthetic sporter stock on it, added a scope, and took a...

Picked up a box of assorted reloading tools, this was in there - Not sure if it even has anything to do with reloading.
No markings
- any ideas ??

I'd like to add a scope but since the shells fly pretty much straight up with a good amount of force, a scope becomes a problem.

I'd like it to wear an older Redfield TV scope that I really like,...

Closer to ear wax but still pretty stiff
Already done

It was easy and obvious, I was just a bit paranoid

Here's the problem now - the firing springs are pretty much done, very weak. They do still work but have to be kept immaculately clean or the...

Have a late 1930's Savage 420. the springs could be better.
Just finished replacing the sear springs, pretty easy job - Now the firing pins. It's getting to the springs for the firing pins that I'm...

Same but I use a mini muffin pan for the harder metals (lino, pewter, solders), large for pure lead
Makes it easier to make alloys

A common trick with the muzzleloading crowd, where you can only look though one end, is to drop in a lighted arrow nock.
If it's for a smaller caliber just sand off the excess plastic.

Wow, that is very generous (this whole place is amazing)

Sold For prices for this exact model are all over the place

How well might Lil Gun work for higher end 38 +P loads ?

Graphite, yup, I forgot about the graphite.
That explains the "dirt" on top

So if antimony is already blended with lead/tin, will it stay in solution when it's melted?
I have a LOT of hardened #7 1/2 shot, high antimony stuff. When I melt it down I get a large amount of...

Wait.... so in other words this ends up as 3 parts lead to 1 part lino/mono blend, right ?
I'm terrible at this.

I have a pot going of 48 lbs pure and 16 lbs lino/mono mix

I was a Bore Butter guy, had some of the same issues as the OP
moved on to Ballistol, now I use Frog Lube and have been very happy with it

M-Tecs - Thank you, that was exactly what I was looking for.

Unfortunately not the solution I wanted. $250 for the 1/8 penetrator ?? NOPE, not happening.

This is going up for sale on one of the...

This unit - and this is exactly how I'm doing it

I picked this up about 20 years ago at a factory auction and finally broke it out and tried using it.
Not sure if I'm doing it right.
The reading are correct when I use the test samples that come...

Sounds like a nice score !

Handmade and signed bamboo fly rods can be worth into the thousands of $$.
However, the vast, I emphasize vast, number of them were factory line made. In very good,...
