Afternoon everyone,
No particular reason, just general curiosity more than anything honestly. :) I've got a .44 Mag and a .45 Colt, was just curious to see if there were/are any "thumper" loads...
Morning again guys,
Anyone have any cast pet load data for the .30 carbine they'd be willing to share?
Due to the scarcity (ie expense) of shooting jacketed, I'm looking to try some...
Morning all,
I've heard rumblings of some heavy loads for .45 auto, reportedly there was some writings doe this done back in the 80s?
Anyone have any data like this they'd be willing to share?...

Hey all,
Took a peek, the one on my press is a small primer plug, I was mistaken, so it seems we're trying to track down a Large primer variant. :)
Also, it looks like the one in the A2 is...

Hey all,
Nope, didn't snag that new-in-box one...of course that one shows up a few weeks after I get mine.. :roll:
Hmm, that little part might be exactly what's needed, I'll have to look and...

Thanks!

Afternoon everyone,
Finally managed to pick up a 1968-era RCBS A2 at a reasonable price, and I'm looking for a period-era piece to complete the "setup".
The press has a large primer stem...

Morning all,
So I've got a new-to-me RCBS Pro 2K that I need to set up, I believe it is a manual-index machine (still sitting in the box out in the shop, haven't opened it yet).
Just putting...
I'd say for rifles, 30-06 no question. Pistols, definitely .38/357, a winning combo with virtually unmatched versatility.
Sounds good! I'll definitely bookmark that page here, would definitely like to load up some "service" rounds for the '06 and .308 also, great calibers for sure.
Appreciate the help guys!
Sounds good on the above-referenced sources, I think a fellow caster had a copy of the 4th generation Lyman book I can borrow to look through.
Thanks very much!
Tom
Afternoon all,
I'm looking to get into casting for rifles, and will be using the venerable '06 as my guinea pig. Recently came into a couple RCBS molds, so I think we're well on the way.
Would...

Morning gents,
I recently inherited a couple lbs of some old Win 630 powder from a fellow reloader, and was looking for some input. It's my understanding this powder hasn't been made for a while...

Hi there fellows,
Just thought I'd toss this out and ask, is Ballist-cast, the company that bought H&G, have they too gone the way of the dodo? I've seen a few things online, and some photos of...

Bump, still looking to see if anyone has one of these adjustable bars lying around. . .the J Hoag company seems to have been a manufacturer of them at one time or another.
Thanks!

They've got fantastic service for sure, I've had them replace some damaged/lost parts without any issues, and even a damaged carbide sizer die as referenced above. . .best customer service team...

Thanks for the feedback here fellas, does anyone know the title of the referenced book written by the late Alton Dinan, or have a copy of the article they could scan/send to me? I'd like to read that...

I like that Redding die, might grab one of those here, will add that to the "list" here..
I've had excellent luck with my RCBS taper die set, so far they've never let me down...good to know that...

Makes sense, I'll try to track down one of those roll crimp dies for my 1917, normal 1911 works just fine with the taper crimp!
Thanks guys!
Forum: Reloading Equipment
Sounds good, looks like I'll have to keep an eye out for the RCBS roll crimp die then, is that an older one by any chance?
Good deal on the LEE die sets, that's good to know.
Many thanks!

Morning all,
Had a question that was posed the other day at the range...did they ever make a roll crimp die for .45 auto/auto rim? If such a critter was made, how hard are they to find these days?...
