It can be done, but it's not the optimal setup.
1. You have to find a way to fasten the chain for the powder measure in the carrier in station one. I'll guess it can be done if you tinker a bit...

Tinn Norge is Norwegian for "Tin Norway". I've also bought some of it that I have melted down into 1/2 lb bars.

Forum: Boolit Lube !
I've also made the Molybee lube. It is very simple to make.
Poured it in my Star and discovered the air-hole at the back the messy way :shock:

And up on the first 8 inches of my forearm. I looked like a mess after 350 rounds with the molybee lube. Was a bit concerned until I discovered the same lube residue when firing 250 rounds lubed with...

I've just discovered the berm of our range hasn't been mined - ever!
It is probably several tons of lead there and 45 minutes produced some 200 lbs of lead.

I sent him a message that I got a reply for on March 18th.
Apparently, he bought a RCBS mold for the 9,3mm and wouldn't participate in the group buy.
