I stuck a case using Imperial for the first time two weeks ago. This the first stuck case for me after reloading for a very long time. The end of your post is the reason it got stuck. I cleaned...

I have gone to Forster rings. They are also split and there is no damage to the threads. They are very easy to loosen and tighten again.

I have heard that the NBC's were very good bullets and were also clean. From what I can tell they are out of business. If anybody has some 44 or 45 NBC's they would like to sell I would be very...

Thanks for all the info, this great! From what I gather the copper coatings or coverings are for the most part to reduce lead fumes in the air. I have heard that they are at times more accurate, I...

Thanks for the information. I looked up National Bullet and they are out of business after what appears to be some massive rip-off's for their former customers. Hate to see that.

As far as the Unique load by cohutt I shot some 6.5 loads with a 240 gr SWC and they were very comfortable to shoot and grouped well also.
I have never tried IMR 4227 but I see it shows up quite a...
Thank you for your help. I went to my local sporting goods store a little while ago and you will never guess what they had on the shelf, 600 Remington 2 1/2 primers! They were priced at $3.50 a box...
Thanks Rocky. I happen to have some Unique, RedDot and Bullseye on hand. Don't have any Remington primers but do have quite a few CCI 300. Will begin the fun part of all of this today making up...
Thank you all. I have a Bulldog in 44 Special as well and have shot some cowboy action loads I got with the gun and they are very managable in the little gun. I also agree that powders have changed...

I have found that when using Forster die rings to make sure to use a #2 Phillips. I made the mistake of grabbing a #1 and it will not tighten the ring very well. Great press.
