This has been my experience with Ruger. I now own 50 or so Rugers, never have had a problem with any of them. I did have the throats reamed on an older 45c Blackhawk. Accuracy was good but leading...

Got both the washer and dryer about a year ago. Right now I can’t comment on their durability but they clean clothes and do it in about a third of the time our old washer did. The dryer dries...

This is my point exactly. If we got to locate an alloy on a chart why not use the bhn number that’s been around for years. That would tell you about as much as softest, softer, soft, sorta hard,...
Forum: Cast Boolits
Well, this thread was interesting. If we have to go to the trouble of giving each bhn value a “hard value” name or location between soft and hard why don’t we just stick with the bhn#’s. 5bhn is soft...
The wife and I would shoot 10-12 thousand a year before this on going primer situation. I am down to about 50,000 primers now and have cut back to about 50 a week.
Thanks DougGuy I think for these 410s I’ll use the published data for the 405s starting low and working up.
Thanks for the link. Lots of good 480 information there. Looks like I can come up with something using Unique that will work great!
I’m aware of both the seating depth and the down loading of H110/296. My concern is I don’t have any information on the CPB 405 GC bullet on the Hodgdon site. I think CPB is a Cast Performance Bullet...
As I was typing ^ the wife limited the Hodgdon’s site to 480 and H110 and came up with a 405 CPB gas checked bullet. I can work with that I believe by starting a little below the start charge and...
Does anyone have any resources for load data for the Ruger 480? I have plenty of manuals.Lymans, Lyman Cast, Hornady, Speer, Nosler, and Lee. I’ve looked on Hodgdon’s web page. I can not find any...

Whomever said Insurance Agents are just order takers, somewhere back up the line, hit the nail on the head. A few years back a small tornado came through and blew my barn away. When the adjuster came...

I’ve never had that problem with traditional lubed boolits
Forum: Hunting with CB's
None of us have leading problems. If your groove diameter, cylinder throat and boolit size are right, using a good lube leading will be nonexistent.

I could get by with Unique. Would it be stellar in every thing I load for, no, but I could get by without being too handicapped.

First and foremost, I am NOT criticizing P/Cing boolits. I think a body needs to do what’s best for them, but, this is why I don’t P/C. I once saw a guy loading up a 44m with shiny new brass with a...

Henry chambers their new side gate models in 35Rem. Now is not a good time to be looking for one, but they are cataloged.

I have a Marlin 39A, Browning BL22 and a couple of Henrys. The Henrys were the best buy but not the best gun. The Browning is by far the most accurate and dependable of the others. The Marlin and...

Original linc from Ben himself says 60 alox and 40 JOHNSONS liquid wax, which is what the OP has.

Started loading shotshells at 24, metallic at 47, casting at 55. Will soon be retired at 61 and plan on doing a lot more of it all.

The 35 is an excellent deer/elk cartridge out to 200 yards. I shoot a home cast RCBS 200 RNFP gas checked at about 2k FPS in a 336 Texan and a 336 RC. I have never lost an animal when using the 35. A...
327 Federal Magnum in revolver and rifle. Rifle only would be 22-250.

When I counted I forgot shot shells. I originally said 14 but with the scatter guns it should have been 15+.
