There will be many more. I like the Boolit boottles suggestion.

I am almost out of Hornady One Shot Case Lube so I started looking for home made case lube recipes. Most that I found call for mixtures of alcohol and lanolin. I was able to find the 99% alcohol at...

Wall-Mart sells a cheap stainless steel stock pot. I think the one I bought was a 6 qt for about $8.00, they also have a larger on for a few dollars more.

Thanks,

Can't find real BP here.

I bought triple 7, and some wonder wads.

I'll try the .451 balls and then order a larger mold if need be. I have also seen posts of people using the .451...

I should have mentioned the cal. It's a 405 WCF for a 1895 Winchester/Moroku.

I just bought my son a 1851 44 cal Pietta for Christmas. The LGS has pyrodex, Triple 7 and an Aliant BP substitute. Which do you recommend?

I have no experience with BP revolvers. Some with...

Thanks for the boolts Loudenboomer, this is the nose profile I've been looking for.

In the picture it is seated to where the nose band touches the lands. If you enlarge the photo you can see...

Thanks Tim and all the rest of you. I tend get a little down this time time of the year too. I needed that reminder that:

"God is not dead, nor doth He sleep;
The Wrong shall fail,
The Right...

I will be interested in hearing what you do with your Blackhawk.

I have two 45 Colt Vaqueros that are the same way. Once I get the slug 3/4" inside the muzzle I can push it by hand all the way to...

I traded for a Moroku 1895 in 450 WCF about two years ago and it is now my favorite rifle. I became obsessed with shooting a 400 grain bullet in it. I was told on a couple of other forums that in an...

Then the winters can be nasty too. I was sent to San Antonio in December 18 years ago to cover for a pilot who was in training far a week. I didn't take a hat or gloves along. I thought I was going...

I know that I'll be "investing" more $ into this. I have my eye on the Lee 20# bottom pour and a lubrisizer, and ... $$$$

One of my coworkers just told me that her husband's friend moved out of...

Thanks for the offer. The only other caliber I plan to cast for is my 405 WCF. I bought some 410 grain boolits from Bullshop that I am working up loads for. They are shooting pretty good. I'll have...

My prayers are for Elli's spiritual and physical health and for God's peace and comfort for her family. God does not need brilliant doctors and medical researchers to do his will. He is fully...

I just sat down and figured out roughly what my start up cost was to cast my first boolits. I think I did it on the low end. $194.00 and that included a 5 gal bucket of wheel weights. I did splurged...

Hang in there Bullshop Jr. I know you are trying. A year ago last June I got laid off my job in construction that I thought was going to take me into my retirement years. You know what the...

Praying for Elli right now. Good bless you and your family. As a parent I can understand your pain and your fears. It is times like this when we need the body of believers to hold us up in prayer.

We have a Blaze King Princes that we supplement our heating with. I didn't light our boiler until November 2nd this year. At -40 it keeps our 2400 Sq Ft main floor and up stairs nice and toasty. The...

I started with Lee molds so they are all I know. Mine cast ok right out of the box after prepping them the way the Lee instructions say to. After "tweaking" them the "Lee-Menting" way (See Stickies)...

I had given up on iron sights and thought I was stuck with scopes until I discovered peep sights. I am near sighted with astigmatism and wear trifocals. You can get good accuracy with a peep sight....

I found a cheap ($7.95) stainless steel stock pot at Wall-Mart and use it on my turkey fryer burner for smelting. I think its a 5 Quart. I already had the turkey fryer so it was a cheap way to go.

Thanks bumpo. I have gotten a lot of use out of the lead Lead Alloy Calculator that you posted here.

A discussion on this forum about zinc in COWWs got me concerned. I, being a rooky, had heaped a large stainless steel stock pot with "sorted" wheel weights and smelted them down. There was a...
