Figures... :)

I have the adapters, but on occasion I like to use the priming arm. Once upon a time, someone made longer plungers to use with the adapter, but I wasn't smart enough to buy a...

Not Froggie, however my two Herter's measure 1.185". Just curious: what does the RCBS Rock Chucker ram mic out? Also, what is the measurement from the center of the link pin to the face of the shell...

22 Short will not hurt anything, just be certain to keep the chamber clean. I have a couple of old Remingtons that had seen a LOT of shorts run through them... Took a bit to get the chambers cleaned...

Les, you may want to do a bit of research on the shipping regs. There is a major difference between shipping ammunition and shipping powder or primers. Ammo ships "ORM D", whereas powder and /or...

6-man. Playing Benjamin was a killer, as they should have been in an 11-man class. All they had to do was wear us out!

#6 shot? Never saw a dove I was that mad at...

And TBG: I played football against O'Brian in High School!

My thinking, as well. Just happen to have swaging dies for turning a 158gr Keith into a .361" hollow-base critter. Works swell in my Webley.
And it would be simple enough to rechamber the Taylor...

There was the Springfield 1872 roller, as well.

Years back, I bought a bag of Name Brand pistol brass. Loaded it straight out of the bag. Every darn one of them, the bullet would twist in the case with ease. Never again.

I wouldn't part with my Taylor's CCC and my 1858 44 for any reason. Just TOO much fun! :)
I keep thinking I'm going to get an 1858 in 36 cal...

I have not experienced any splitting of Federal brass, but have encountered terribly SOFT Federal cases. To the point I avoid Federal, period.

I have encountered case splitting with S&B ammo in three different calibers: I will not be buying any more S&B!

As to Remington brass splitting, since the plant got up and operating after the...

EyeRon, that brass is toast! Send it to me and I will give it a decent burial! :)

I'll try harder... [smilie=1:

The dull finish is nothing to sweat, but if you want to put a shine on things with your current media dribble in a small amount of Nu Finish, or Flitz liquid polish. A dab will do, and you will want...

Barnabus: that is the joy of creating a thread on the forums. First rabbit to run, and there we go! I haven't had a thread yet that didn't go south.

BTW: my favorite lube is 100% lard, in the...

Head up HWY 71 from Austin. When you get to LLano, stop at Coopers. DON'T go on Sunday, as you'll never get in the joint! Go early if you want the goat, as it sells out quick! And... GO HUNGRY! :)

DOH!!!! Why didn't I think of THAT! Brilliant! Have a new powder reservoir for my Redding that has been driving me batty!

For reference, the black powder 303 British service cartridge launched a 215gr projectile at 1850fps.

Reference Speer #11:

.38 Special
473AA
148gr Bevel Base WC lead: 4.3-867fps Max 4.9-933fps
158gr. semi-WC, round nose, semi-WC HP lead bullets: 4.4-762 max 4.8-864
140 jacketed HP 5.4-884fps...

405: thanks for the link, sir! :)

Thank ye, sir! Feel free to tag more of the beasties! :)

Silica packs with my primers: I LIKE that idea! :)
As for putting them in with the powder, I cannot see why not.

Before you get too involved, check the diodes to see if they are good. By the looks of the outer housing, the welding unit hasn't seen a hard life, but I would check it out before spending the coin...
