Just out of curiosity, if swaging will the 45 ACP case stretch enough to make this bullet.

Tried yesterday for about an hour to polish the chamber. I used valve grinding compound and snug fitting cloth. I also used 100% copper Chor-boy scrubbing pad wrapped around cloth. No joy in...

At the range I use an alcohol-soaked patch for between shots and a mixture of alcohol, peroxide and Murphy's oil soap for a final cleaning. I than swab down the barrel with bore butter. At home it...

The extractor is the type that saddles the bolt. See picture below. One side is sharp for pulling the shell out and the other side that faces the inside of the chamber is rounded to release the...

I recently came into the above shotgun. It had been kept in a shed for quite a while. There was a lot of surface rust with a little pitting going on. I paid nothing for this gun, so whatever I do...

Every time I run Duro felt I get the following:

I ran Wool felt and a couple of places came up. Looks like you may have to order larger quantities. You can always check JoAnns and Hobby Lobby.

I am surprised this thread hasn't been made a "Sticky".

I think I would get a thermometer for that oven. Just to make sure.

Found one on Gunbroker that is identical to this. It is described as 4mm Flobert and has a price marked as $99.00.

Run ubungsmunitions 20 and a lot of references will come up.

I have a hard cover on my 2003 Ford Super Crew. It is nice and keeps the weather out. Fairly secure, even though I believe you could pop it open with a long screwdriver. Biggest downside is if you...

If I don't recognize the number or the name I don't answer the phone. Let it go to voice mail. If it is someone I want to talk with I will call them back.

I am guessing you mean the Walther. I have no direct experience with the PDP, but I have owned a PPQ for about 6 or 7 years. I am guessing the barrels are very similar. I have never experienced any...

I swage a 250 grn. round nose into a wadcutter for low velocity rounds I use at a 2x4 shoot. They do a really good job at blowing huge chunks of wood out the back when I hit the board.

I have also fired lead bullets from my .44 mag Desert Eagle which is also polygonal rifling. Other than the fact that they were going too fast to grip the rifling they did not cause any safety...

Never had a problem in my Walther PPQ.

Try removing the cylinder, then remove the nipples and shoot a blast of compressed air through each chamber. It should blow the charge and ball out.

When we were shooting pins, one thing I noticed is nothing would go completely through the pin unless hit very close to the side. The round that went the deepest was 9mm luger. I shot .44 mag (full...

What calibers are you looking to make? If some of the more common pistol calibers certain pistol brass can be used. If for a .22 cal. rifle you can use .22 rimfire brass with a set of de-rimming...

Battis,
I PM'ed you a copy of the rules that we used at the club I belong to.

As far as the restrictions go, it sounds like someone thinks they can get an advantage.

It also sounds like you...

How far into swaging are you? Are you just thinking about starting or do you already have the equipment? If you do not have any of the equipment you may be find it prohibitively expensive to get...

Might want to give these guys a call.

Thanks for the responses. I have not been able to get to the range to try it out yet. Maybe this week. This one actually has a small bend. I have thought about using heat and trying to straighten...

I was recently given a Glenfield model 60 that had been left in a shed. It was cosmetically in rough shape. Cleaned up fairly well with some Scotch Brite pads and the bore appeared to be pristine. ...

Why not a Ruger Vaquero. You can shoot BP in it, and it looks the part. You should be able to pick one up used for a reasonable price.
