Muriatic acid is hydrochloric acid (HCL). If diluting, be sure to add the acid to the water, not vice versa. I learned in chemistry class years ago that adding water to a beaker of acid will invite...

My RCBS primer pocket swager was one of the best investments I have made. Simple and trouble free; you just can't break it.

Both antimony and tin will reduce the density of your castings. My feeling is, if you can load them, they are probably soft enough.

As far as lead sticking to the mold, I used the advice found elsewhere on this forum, and use the tiniest dab of silicon bulb grease on both sides of the sprue plate. If the boolits are not...

I have also been looking for a replacement for Unique. So far Accurate #5 seems to be good in some applications.

Thanks everybody. When I loaded for 12 ga I got used to doing the same thing the same way. Now that I am using various components I have to figure it all out again. I will call BP as you suggest,...

I recently started (again) loading for 20 ga with my Lee LoadAll. Getting 20 ga hulls has been somewhat of a task, but now I have a few, mostly Federal. When I looked at the illustrated descriptions...

I have already given several guns to my kids because, frankly, I only need one 22 rifle, and it is a keepsake. I need to take inventory of family heirlooms to go to our descendants, and it will...

Not a scope, but I did JB weld a tube magazine ring onto a .22 rifle. It did not hold. IME: When I tried to use JB weld on an air cooled VW engine, I found it did not like heat.

I enjoyed his style and his pithy remarks. I hope his brother keeps it going.

Although I never owned one, I always like the Marlins better than the Win 94s due to the side ejection, like my old Savage 99. Yours is a beauty!

All of the 4227 I have ever used was donated to me by friends. I only used it in 357 mag, which I don't shoot a lot. Once can even produced red dust when opened, but I loaded it and it shot just...

I did something similar with fresh mackerel which can have a lot of fine bones in it. I made croquettes out of them.

In a typical Zippo lighter the cylindrical checkered part is hard and rubs against a soft metal part, the "flint" which is worn away in use. Therefore a hard, checkered frizzen with a soft iron...

I tried to ship a Taurus back to the factory. FEDEX would only ship next day air, which was way too much for me. I finally sold the gun at my LGS with a full description. My Hi Point needed to go...

The USAF used to put public relations movies on broadcast TV Sunday afternoons.

My grandmother had one of those TVs! She smoked Pall Mall cigarettes and watched Roller Derby.

I have on hand an adequate supply SR, LR and LP primers, but go through a lot of SP. Just ordered another 2,000 SP and stopped shaking.

I just saw this. Praying for you and your family.

On the next to last day of our trip we gave out bags of food to the poor. Each bag held rice, beans, and a bottle of cooking oil. The photo shows a local pastor leading them in song and...

Vacation Bible School was a big hit. Parents dressed kids in their fanciest clothes and sent them. The effort was almost entirely Haitian volunteers with assist from Laura and Boyd.

Along with the goats, a donkey was also purchased to be given to a family.

In the picture that shows me holding the goat, you can see motorcycles in the background. The "moto" as they are called...

One morning we went to the goat market. Here I am as a goat wrangler. It is actually a livestock auction. Again, the market is the side of the road. Hearts 4 Haiti has provided goats to...

Haiti operates on "Island Time." We did some work, but hurry is not in the vocabulary.
