I've never had a mould get to me from Miha in less than two weeks. Worst case was almost a month.
And it has NOTHING to do with Miha Prevac. Its the US postal service following whatever rules...
I hadn't thought of telepathy before but I think that you nailed it! :-) Somehow, Tom at Accurate must use the Force to feel your need before you even know which mould that you want and then makes...

I'm so sorry to hear of this Ken. My thoughts are with you, yours and his family and I know that the days ahead will be hard. If there is anything that I can do please ask.

I bought the 43-260B from Tom about a month and a half ago and it had the same effect on me that it did on Col Colt. I got a three banger in brass and it IS a handful but it casts such pretty,...

During the summer I believe the family dedicates the majority of their efforts to subsistence related activities such as fishing to put back food for the winter. I do not believe that they would...

I started with a 4-20 and still use it. It's a fine piece of equipment given that it does NOT have dependable temperature control. But this does not stop you from casting good boolits. You just...

Cranium, Snuffy, rbertalotto and Frozone,
Thanks to you for the reassurance. I am going to use my PID as I have been - which includes the ramp up to temperature. I used the 25 A SSR and, as...
Forum: Cast Boolits
P.S. There are instructions on how to construct a PID over in the "Casting Equipment" forum if any are interested. They are easy enough to follow that even I was able to build a PID and I am...

Is it true that the pot should not be plugged in to a PID during initial temperature ramp up though? With the new solid state relays?
I have no idea and am just thinking of protecting my new PID....

There is a discussion going on in the "Casting" forum about which setting on the Lee 4-20 pot corresponds to what temperature etc. I know from here that the rheostat is almost hopelessly incapable...

Its a little surprising that the original sight did not have an allowance for elevation adjustment but, like your take-down modification on your 92, you have come up with an elegantly simple...

If you are talking about alox or xlox, if it comes off in the seating die and plugs it up why would it not come off in the magazine or as you chamber the round?

Greg B.,
Thanks. That was the first thing I did when I decided that I wanted to understand more about the Rossi. I got fire formed brass that measured from .4330 to .4350 inches. With the wall...

hdugan,
Thanks again. I wired it as you indicated and purposely caused an alrm1 situation and the sound was devastating. Took me a few seconds to figure out how to turn it off with all of that...

I have slugged bolt action rifle bores and revolver and semi auto pistols but I don't have a clue how to get a chamber/throat slug of a levergun. I have never done a chamber casting and I guess I...
