Bought a few bricks of Winchester LPP from Academy a couple months ago for 79.99 per. But I’m still using my stash of prepandemic 30.00 CCI srp/lpp. I traded all my CCI spp for lpp in 2022 but...

I’ve tried short nosed .45 swc in my 1894 and it didn’t like them. Load a few dummy loads and experiment. You could always turn the boolits around and seat them in your brass to test them in your...

I seem to remember someone offering a 25-06 barrel for the M1. I would have got one of those when I had my M1 put together. Had a Ruger #1V and then a Sendero in 25-06 back then. Enjoy your new toy...

I traded all my small pistol primers for large pistol primers last year so now I'm using small rifle primers for38 and 45acp. I found that my lightened mainspring Vaqueros [for cas] were having...

Whack a mole in .45-70 sometime in the ‘70s. Have their aluminum molds, a couple Auto Primes, a few of their dies and bullet and bulge buster dies but no presses. I use Dillon, RCBS and Lyman...

Did pins off the table many many years ago. I used a Anaconda in 45lc that I loaded 292 gr 45-70 boolits sized down to 454. When I was 5 per 5or6 I was rockin but if any were left I would put my...

Last week I did these 45acp 250 gr rnfp for my 45lc 1873 uberti that I had rechambered to 45acp. Shot it last Saturday and it ran fine. 326206

Older revolvers generally use .454 while more modern guns run .452 BUT measure your throats first. I have an original Anaconda in .45lc that needed .454 diameter boolits to fill the throats. Would...

Smart idea. But I deprime and reprime on my Dillon or Lyman TMag presses. By the time I deprime my 45acp brass just to check them in your handy dandy primer sorter I could just look at the primer and...

I would never kill a bumblebee but I sure would a carpenter bee.

And i thought that i had too many presses at 10. I’m a slacker fer sure. But an old rcbs rock chucker is currently not in use

One of the reasons to use a caseguard plastic box [or something similar] to keep your loaded rounds in. Makes it very easy to check primers. I’ve seen cas shooters who carry loose ammo try shooting a...

I would never waste a primer on those damn things but have used a badminton racket to whack them. Tried a tennis racket but it is too heavy and slow. Killed over 600 one summer a few years ago but...

I’ve had issues with that Cimarron/Uberti 1873, a Thunder ranch .45 smith and a Colt detective spcl. But they were repaired with no drama.

Like your light in a box. Very clever. I built a aluminum base that connects my two sizers to the heater. The whole thing is on an oak board that I clamp to my bench.

Uberti will build whatever the retailer wants. I had a Cimarron branded 1873 30 inch 45colt with a bogus barrel but I sent it to Texas and after a year’s wait I got it back with a new barrel.

After Irene put 8 inches in my house [just enough to wreck most everything] everything had to be emptied to rip out the floors, 4 ft of Sheetrock on the walls, wiring, kitchen cabinets etc. Most...

The lightest I ever loaded for my .45-70s and 45-60 was the 292 gr lead, mold #457191.

Called the sheriff’s office the other day. Hadn’t come back. They’ll call me when it does.

Always resize new brass. Irons out any dents and makes them all uniform. Plus it gives you a chance to inspect them for damage or missing flash holes. Quality control isn’t what it once was.

Sorry to hear about your 1873 rifle. They are pretty neat. I bought a used Uberti Cimarron 30 inch 45 colt 1873 that had a bad barrel. Sent it to them and it took almost a year before another barrel...

Tumble every reload except if I’m working on a handgun load. Reload a handful of them, check for function, shoot them off my deck and reload again until I'm satisfied with them. I also don’t pick up...
