Wow
Another close call yesterday. I was casting up some 311284 boolits for my Krag. I had just ladle'd and poured both cavities. With the mould over the pot, some of the molten sprue dribbled off...

Jim
I stand corrected. You are correct. I will edit and correct. Thank you.

Good to hear no one has sustained serious or permanent injury.

That's mighty nice of him. :kidding:

I really enjoy the looks other shooters have when they walk by the Krag setting on the bench. Some recognize the Krag, but haven't seen one in years. Others have never seen one before, and start...

I don't load through the magazine either. Just single loading. I may try that to see how well it will shoot. Interesting concept. Thanks for the tip.

Oh yeah.

I'm going to try and figure out how to powder coat the driving section, without coating the bore riding section. I will probably just stick with the 311284 boolit, as it is performing very well. The...

I loaded up 50+ 30-40 Krag rounds a couple months ago. I got side tracked shootin my handguns, and neglected doing the testing with the Krag rounds. So, a couple days ago I decided it was time to get...

Great replies from everyone. Thanks for the input.

Way back, years ago, I read somewhere that automobile oil was as good as any other lubrication that could be manufactured. It went on to say that manufacturer's spent millions upon millions of...

Very, very nice.

Oh my Lord James. That is one beautiful rifle.

Don, when you figure it out, please let me know.

Back in 69, I was 18 year old and started my first welding job. I started at 3.00 per hour, and after a few months, I got my first raise of 10 cents. Wow, I thought I was in tall cotton. I stayed in...

I was at the gun club earlier this week lighting off some 9mm's. Second to the last round in the magazine, blew pessure and powder in my face, barked oddly, recoil was different, more smoke than...

I generally clean my pistols a day or two after a shooting session. As stated in my original post, I have been using the Tetra Gun Lubricant. It works well, but gets thicker the more rounds I put...

A couple months ago, I coated some .734 round balls for my 12 ga. I set the balls on the flat sprue on a tin sheet and slid them in the oven. Yep, you have to use some finesse, drink a couple cups of...

Now that's funny. :guntootsmiley:

Years ago, I had two boxes of Selleir & Bellot (SP) 7.62x54. I brought one box to the range to play with. Foolish me, I didn't check out the cartridges before firing, or after, (Factory ammo, got to...

I've used all those era primers. Just been to long to remember when. If there is a printed or stamped lot or code number, it can be siphered out. I've done it.

Thank you.

I looked at a wts post on swappin and sellin by HARRYMPOPE regarding the sale of a Herters 401 powermag. He posted 5 Attatchments. I cannot open them by clicking on them.

How come I cannot open an attachment when they are posted???

Oops, I failed to remark on the magazines. Both magazines functioned properly in feeding the ammunition. On the other hand, the magazine springs are fairly stiff. The first five rounds feed into the...
