I routinely sort lead wheel weights that we get from a local tire guy. The lead content is about 15-20 percent. Zinc(usually marked Zn), Iron or steel weights that are marked Fe, and lead weights are...

After extensive testing I found the SA primers need a factory spring or close to it for ignition. In my Beretta M9A4 the MCarbo 12# spring would only set off 80 percent of the time. I put in the...

I really liked the old format but I'm getting up to speed on the new one. I also try to get as many Reloading manuals as I can get. One offer from Speer at their site will give you their manual for...

Competed with the 45 in Bullseye Competition using only 231. It's a great choice in the Winchester line.

I have 375BB in the Model 94 carbine. It's a beauty from the 90's. I am the only owner. I reload for it and have found great accuracy from it. It's light weight and can bring down practically any NA...

I hope you try the tumble lube Lee 124 TC mold. I have one in 6 cavities and found it cast incredible bullets at higher temperatures. The bullets frost slightly and fall from the mold mostly. Using...

I checked out Powder Valleys prices on one of my favorite powders for the 357 Mag rifle, 5744. A week or so ago it was in the mid 50's. Today its $71.00 a pound. I look at this as a gouge or maybe...

The MP molds are as good as you can get and shipping is beyond fast at least to the US. Hope you can find what will work for you.

I never clean off the excess. I like extra lube so as to keep the barrels more lead free. I routinely clean all my dies, so they are not crudded up.

I'm a Winchester guy but this rifle looks sweet. I am curious why they needed the butt pad but hey if it makes the gun more comfortable for folks than its just fine.

I stand up all the pc'd bullets and then I use a small artist brush to lightly touch up the bullet where I can see the lead showing through. Works very well for 99 percent of the bullets. The 1...

Your 32.5 grain load is the load I would use. Three touching and a single close flyer. If this is a 50-yard group, I'd say you are good to go. Thats just my opinion.

The Blue Carnauba eliminated the leading problems I had with my 357 cast loads. It leaves traces in the bore, so I know it's in all 24 inches of the barrel. Flows effortlessly from the Lyman 45. I...

Here are some pictures of lube deposits left in the bore of my M73 357 Mag Sporter. I am working up loads using different alloys, so the weights and hardness vary. My first attempts leaded badly...

I believe it does.

No, I'm using a RCBS Easy Melt dipper pot with Controller.

Works great, forms a dark grey glasslike product that skims off easily. Doesn't smell much. Works fine as does waxes and pine saw dust. It does coat my spoon and dipper but it's not a problem.

I'm 66 and only use open sights. I use Skinners on my 94 Sporter and all of my other levers use stock sights. It works for me.

I use their pistol dies, bullet sizer dies, bullet hardness tester, ingot mold, etc. They all work just fine. We also have their small press on the table for my buddy who can't reload at home. It...

When reintroducing those ingots to a melted batch always preheat the ingot to drive away any condensation that will form on the ingot when it's cold. Any cavities are a concern here. I always slowly...

After getting a Lyman digital lead therm, I saw that 715 F was the temp I was casting at. Same temp for the three alloy types I am using. Brinell hardness from 9 to 22. My RCBS Easy Melt showed 700...

I found a similar chipping of the powder coat with lead adhered to the chip and discovered that a frosted bullet allows this to happen. Possibly too hot of a mold when casting. The underside when...

Doesn't taste as good though.

Much thanks.

I noticed this when my WW melt cooled. Interesting sinkhole and crystal structure. My other harder allows don't do this at all and seem flat with a minimal of shrinkage. Is this a normal look?
