Super easy to look at and compare in Tom's catalog.

I like the lard method. Paint will also require an outside fire as it will smoke and stink to cure. If lard doesn't work you're not out much.

Your best options are around 12 bhn or 17-19 bhn.
I searched long and hard for a Model 66 or 19 with a 2 1/2" bbl. I got a beautiful rb combat set up with the model 66 and found it just wasn't as accurate for me as a square butt 4". It got sold a...
I have a contender and have used H110, WW296 and AA9 successfully. I use 2400 for mid range loads.
The above bullet looks like the Ly3586287 with a band missing. I can see why it would shoot.
Bob Melek was also heavily involved in the 357 and 30 Herret cartridges as well as the Contender platform. Some writers have undisclosed agendas and some folks just want to be right.

I bought $12 worth of small parts 10 days ago. Nothing called stripe was involved. Same stuff from Titan was $17.

2 45 rb give you about 5" separation at 100 yards with a muzzleloader so no surprise there. The question is what do you want to do with it?

Butternut squash soup is awesome as is peanut. Plenty of recipes on the web for both.
Yep, this design just plain works. It's a near copy of the 38-40 bullet LY 401043.

Either 434 281 or 434 234, No need for a gas check, IMO, unless you're pushing them hard from a rifle.

I enjoy rural living 7 miles from a town of 1200 people. Cows outnumber people by about 15-1. Trouble is it is only an hour from Bozeman. We have become a commuter base for their wages. In 2019 I...
I wanted some for a Ruger PC 9 last year. A stop at a gun show and a $75 purchase resulted in the seller throwing in 10, 10 rd mags. He had them for $5 a piece and has plenty of them.

I get about 2300 fps with a near case full of WC872 and a bullet heavier than 150 gr. It can be improved with a kicker of 4-6 gr of a fast RIFLE powder such as 4198.

Bullet was designed by Earl Squibb and from that we have squibb loads as those that stick in the bbl. He wanted something to shoot at slow speeds. I would try for 1200 fps. Plenty of old data in...

That was a good thing to do Andrew375. As shooters we should help each other.

RIP Bret. May your family be comforted during this time.
I would expect a cast wc to hold a lot more lube and be of a significantly harder alloy than hbwc's coming with a factory dipped lube. They should hold up to quite a bit more pressure and velocity.
