    Same, I call it Indian butchering. Modern butchering only leaves bones in because they use band saws to make the job easier. Hang in the garage and bone out into meat lugs to the basement fridge and...
  2. Case lube

    Well, I have never used case lube sizing before. I threw a bunch of bullets in my zip lock for case sizing and sprayed with case lube. Didn't work for first ten and now they are better. I guess lubes...

    SO I have powder coated 9mm, 30-30 and 30.06 bullets and all the time I just shake and baked on a wire rack in the toaster oven. I was working toward a 6.8 SPC round and cast a bunch, water quench...

    I got the 50 calibler and use 45 cal slugs in sabots out of it. I tried REAL's as i used on the other one with the old style deep rifling and they just stripped out. Maybe a harder lead or powder...

    I have Lee, NOE and MP molds. I like them all and the latter two, obviously the best, because they are better. I have really been sold on the MP mold because Miha makes mostly brass molds, or at...

    That big flat nose probably needs to be seat shorter than an OAL for a typical spire point bullet. The skinny tips go farther up the barrel. I get a empty case seat a bullet and chamber it, keep...

    Square base 167.34 grain Base .2825
    rounded base 166.8 grain Base .282 but I think it might not be a lot of base to fill the corners, the more I look at it.

    They got culled.

    Differing opinions. These will be seated and sized, powder coated and sized again. I think they should be on tight.

    Base fill out

    Does the bullet on the left need to be culled, or will it work just fine once gas checked and powder coated? I am thinking with a gas check, I won't notice. Honestly, they are semi rounded them...

    Paper cartridges for a rifled gun?
