Good deal!! Nice to see it shooting so well this early in the game. I think everybody know by now 38-55 is my favorite caliber

Now I cant tell from looking, but, I remember years ago when Hodgden finished testing H450 they sold it off by the keg/ton. It was a ball powder sort of like that in the picture. My older brother and...

I check Starline everyday. When .45 colt was available for backorder I jumped on it, the next afternoon it was back to being unavailable. I got my 500 on the day they said it would be available, just...

You are so screwed!! Lever guns in the early calibers are fun to shoot, low walls and highwalls bring the addiction to a whole new level. The 38-55 is my all time favorite, in a high wall, but a...

My '94 was made in 1897, it's handles current data just fine. I dont push the envelope with it, recently turned it into a cast boolit rifle, it hasn't given any signs of any pressure problems....

I haven't been interested in swaging until I read this, now you have my attention. I have an old Hollywood single stage press, I've heard it's strong enough. Are you using lead wire or cast cores? A...

Yup, you did good

a pound of 4198, and 1000 pistol primers. Only allowed 1 pound a day, and a thousand primers a day. They just got a new shipment, everyone should be restocked soon

Was in a shop in Billings yesterday, lot's of powder, they just got a shipment. I'll bet there was 30 lbs of 3031 on the shelf, and a variety of other powders. $30 a lb, ouch!!

Very nice. 7x57 is a favorite caliber of mine, I can see I'm going to have to run some boolits through it, I haven't weaned it from copper, yet. Thanks for the pics

Got a Hollywood Senior and 3 or 4 310 tools, seems to work for me ok

I haven't, I'll have to go look. It's been 30 years since I built any, I dont care for the ones for sale today, so I had Randy, at Timberline, make me some trees. I want the tree to fit as good as...

Thanks Duke. This time I'm somewhat copying an old saddle I picked up. I'll post a pic of it tomorrow, an interesting old piece

101419101420 Not for me, for the horses. Finally getting around to putting some new pack saddles together, a few sawbucks and a couple of deckers. Going with brass arches and hardware

Another for the English flint. Never had great luck with the sawn flints

Hauling is no problem. I built a little single pole frame, looked like a fork, that was attached to my front bumper, on a CJ5. The roll bar was the back support. A 17 and a half foot Redbird rode...

It really depends on the die caliber, steel or aluminum handles, large or small. 45-70, 45 colt, 30-30, 38-55 in in demand, handles and dies usually bring in the neighborhood of &100. Lots sell for...

Bought a Ruger 77V back in the late '70 that was marked 280 or 7mm Express, some ammo was headstamped the same way. Ackley wasn't a fan of AI in the 280, said it did not improve enough to be worth...

Bought a modified Red Bird years ago, strippers are the finest canoe in the water. Traded it off in a gun deal, poorest decision I ever made. Glass and plastic canoes are in the same class as jon...

Thanks for all the ideas. I'm going to get this little project done this year. Your help is greatly appreciated. Ya know, I dont think there is any gun related problem this group couldn't tackle and...

The story. A couple of years ago I went to the Billings Gun Show looking for a Stevens Favorite. While looking around I bought 15 lbs of IMR PB for $75, and found 3 Favorites. One "trader" had a...

Psssstt, check the banner .........

A little "injun'nuity" goes a long way, I like 'em.

Congratulations!! Been a friend of Bill W's for 22 years, nice to meet others.
