Lee classic here. I took it as part of trade, my good fortune I guess. I haven't it long but after setting up 38, 357, 44, 45 acp and 45 colt shell plates, I wondered why it took me so long the get...

Thanks everyone for the most excellent information. The buck horn is off and eventually to be replaced with filler or home made filler as the pictures suggest.

Trying to get the peep dialed in (50 yds for load development) and I am finding the peep is down and very close to the barrel. So close the rifle's buckhorn rear sight occluding(sp?) the peep. Is my...

Well after several alternate copper solvent soakings and patching out, I began to see some clean patches. Followed by a few more with Ed's Red and now the bore is patch clean.

A good friend recently gifted me a 1954 model. I don't know much about its history but I suspect it was feed J words all its life.
Which brings me to my question, I will be shooting cast only in...
I was looking for something for a gp100 but sadly there was no gp100 among those on the drop down menu.

Following the thread with interest as I hope to get my 357 to the woods in a few weeks. My 44's are po'ed.

Yes, there is no question of the powder, the ammo was previously loaded by me and is Unique. Other than a kernel or two (flakes) attached to the boolit which I discarded, the powder is clean. It will...

I have quite a few loaded 44 mag cases with a lubed cast boolit that I will be pulling with an inertia puller. I expect to be able to reuse the components, however, I have question regarding the...

I am away from the bulk of my stash but I found few to try. I really don’t see the project as a big deal.

Yes you do ;) and that someone is going to get a handful of each for PC'ing/sizing after I de-lube em. He has had a successful trip down this road and saving the gc's is also a plus. It will be a...
