10 MM, Most gun shops will have a box or two available which might make the difference if your ammo is lost or misplaced while on a hunt. I'd probably go with a glock 40 for a strictly hunting gun to...

Actually I already PP and have molds for both rifles but sometimes I want to just be able to shoot and not mess around cutting patches and wrapping bullets.

Thanks for the info and recommendations.

I’ve been thinking about a new GG bullet mold for my 50-90 and 44-77 sharps rifles. The 50 has a 1-26” and the 44 is an older Shiloh an I’m not quite certain of the twist. For the 50 I’ve found a...

That's a beautiful rifle congrats. The big fifty has some punch for sure. Those double set triggers are adjusted by the small screw that is inside the trigger guard. you don't have to use the set...

I have the RCBS 44-250K That I don't use currently because I bought an MP 4 cavity mold. I'll check to see if I have any of the RCBS Bullets left and take a pic. Sorry I see you wanted pics of the...

I think the RCBS is 22x or something. I loaded the spencer round and currently load 50-90.

I've owned 2 Pedersoli Sharps both were pretty good accurate rifles with no failures due to workmanship or materials. I wish I still had both of them actually, one was an 1859 Paper cartridge...

They don't offer 1x36 but they do offer a 1x32 which I think might be a better twist.

I cut and pasted this excerpt from the data link below. Looks like hodgdon does not recommend using the 777 pellets in cartridges.

Triple Seven Pellets and White Hots Preformed Charges

The 1859/63 as long as it’s still a paper cartridge and cap gun is just like a muzzleloader and should be able to purchased similarly. Some states may have their own rules.

We have giant murders of them up my way, 1000s flying to roost at sunset. We have spring and fall seasons but I doubt anyone hunts them.

I cannot shoot a decent group with a handgun from a bench, I use a braced standing position when working up loads. I start at 10 Yards and shoot one round and then shoot the rest at the bullet hole....

I'm using a MP mold 158 grain HP Keith bullet with a +p charge of HS 6, I get 985 FPS out of a 4" model 15.

Singleactions.com perhaps?

Unique and 2400 should be fine with a standard primer, 296 requires a magnum primer. That 90303 is a good bullet and I've shot a bunch of them.

Look into the processed wood logs, they are basically an oversized wood pellet that come in boxes by the pallet. I’ve never used them in a woodstove but did burn some in a campfire. They seem like a...

I don’t have a specific load to recommend but a 300-405 grain bullet at trapdoor velocity should work well here. About 1200 fps.

When John Ross posted here he advocated rifle powders in the 500 smith and Wesson and stated that you could load to the base of the bullet and have a safe case filled load that would eliminate the...

That's almost a pristine bullet. I haven't tried forming cases yet but may give it a try.

With the exception of 4198 all the starting loads for powders you listed will get you there.

If you're handloading I bet some of those long shot wads that are not slit would hold the shot together longer. I think I saw a youtube video about converting them to a Flightcontrol style. I think...

I really like the looks of the 856 as well as the 3” barrel, but I simply don’t trust a Taurus. I’ve owned 3 all of them broke in some way within a short time and few rounds.

1. The beretta...

I’ve been using a lot of HS6. It works well in almost every pistol cartridge that I load for. 38, 357, 44 special and magnum, 45 acp, 45 colt and 480 ruger.
