I like shooting my 22 caliber cast boolits in my 22 Hornet. Tricky little round to get load tuned though.

I want to go that rout too. Right now it's about the money. That stuff is expensive. Corbin's stuff is way expensive. Any chance of posting pics of your set up and what you make?:mrgreen:

Well I have a much bigger press but I use my standard one to make things more understandable for my viewers. I like the C&H dies but I think their punches are too soft. Even though I am using pure...

I have a rifle in that chambering so it isn't too hard to come across. I have about 500 rounds of once fired brass. I need to upload a picture or two of them. If you go to my YouTube channel in Part...

Use 9mm brass.

I've found that using 50 BMG fired primers can make decent quarter jackets for 9mm. Just have to anneal them first. I have not perfected them yet but I will be posting pictures soon.

The idea I have is to save money. Jackets are too expensive. For the cost of jackets I can get a complete bullet. This is a way for me to get good deep hollow points and to use jackets, gas checks or...

OK, my .35 caliber gas checks came today. I have 2000 on hand. So here's my new plan. I am going to cast up a bunch of my Lee 309 200gr bullets for cores. I will use the driving bands as my guide to...

I thought I was doing OK. Live and learn. I'll order another tomorrow. When you formulate a bullet, do you weigh the jacket and core then calculate say 2 more grains in lead? As it turns out the lead...

I think I bulged the core seat punch. I think it's because the lead that I thought was pure lead was not. Any one know of a good source for lead wire in N. California?

There has to be a better way to get the nose to form w/o the pipe effect. Not much pressure is applied to the point forming. Not the kind of pressure used to seat the core.

OK. Got my C&H #101355HP. Tried them out nad they're very simple and well made. Now I have some questions.

When forming the the point, how do you avoid the stove pipe at the point?
The bullet...

I want to use 50 BMG primer cups for half jacketed Carbine bullets.

What my plan is is this. I just ordered 2K .35 caliber gas checks. I'll be using those to get into the swing of things. I'll the full length resize the Carbine brass or 32 ACP brass then anneal the...

I ordered the 101355HP dies form C&H4D and I think I placed the order just in the nick of time. They said they've had a 700% increase in orders for them. WOW! Talk about panic buying!

So here's my...

As far as cores go why not use #12 shot and make some really nasty ones. I like the Lee ideas. C&H will make a custom die set for aroi=unf $215. Dave Corbi's stuff is way over priced for the working...

There seems to be no one selling pistol jackets. Where is a good place to find them? Corbin doesn't and neither does Sierra.

I'm calling C&H to order my 9mm #105 swaging dies in hollow point flavor! Weeeee! I'll be squeezing them and casting them. I guess that makes me either too into my hobby or if I'm only now getting...

Hi everyone! I hope you all had a great Thanksgiving and ate till you fell into a turkey coma like I did.

Where is a good supplier of jackets? Corbin is expensive and I want to be able to make...

I have a Ideal 403 169. It looks like a 40 caliber mould and it looks like it weighs a bit more than 220grs. I want to figure out if it's a 40 caliber mold. If it is and it weighs in that range I...

Does anyone know of a parson who makes custom hollow point nose punches? I have an article from Handloaders "Bullet making Annual #1" where a 9mm set up was done in such a way to make very nice .380...

Can anyone tell me about their experience with this product? I want to get this for myself around Christmas. I want to initially get the 9mm setup or the
40/10mm one. Any advise? I'm on a budget.

I use a Lewis Lead Remover, 5 minutes I'm done.

I love my S&W 610 and I've been shooting the Lee 175gr T/C. I like using 6.0gr of Unique but I think the groups I get are as good as I can get with Unique. I want to try Grren Dot then 700X. Any of...

How does the PSl shoot with jacketed boolits? I think the PSL has a pretty fast twist. You might try a 200gr boolit or a 180. My M1 Garand is a .308 and it shoots great with jacketed boolits but...
