I've had a R1 for a little while, shoots everything I put in it, cast 452's included. The only thing I ever did to it was to polish the feed ramp.

So if I TL my CB's with LLA (or 'MS") w/or without JPW, which my LGS won't have then my CB's will be AOK and I won't be SOL?

Forum: Lead and Lead Alloys
I have dealt with Cabela's for a while now, both on-line and in one of their stores and I have not seen any "racism". I have also worked in the retail business for over 30 years and I have seen how a...
