Give them a try and see. I don't know if there is any comparison but I'm trying out a 225gr FTX in my M92 Rossi 45lc for brush hunting. Test them out and see.

If you are looking for custom lube sizer dies try S&S firearms. They will make the size you want and are compatible with Lyman and RCBS lube sizer presses.

The OP just wants to find out where to get some tin to add to what he has to just get proper mould cavity fill. We all know it doesn't take much tin % to achieve this. The cut pieces will work fine...

Midway has it in stock now for $19.22 a pound in cut pieces. I believe this is what you are looking for.
Forum: Lead and Lead Alloys
The last time I got pure tin from Midway it was in wafers (small pieces ). Made it easier to add just enough for fill out when I made up my last batch of #2 alloy.
Forum: Lead and Lead Alloys
You can try Midway USA. That's where I've always gotten mine.

I've been wondering if anyone here has ever tried using rendered deer tallow in making up homemade lube for BP rifles.

I'm tempted also. I would like another good shooter but have to pay the bills first.

What part of the mountains are you in. I maybe interested in some.

Yep. I load them up and shoot em. They fire just fine.

Try sizing to .451. I found that diameter worked better for me when loading cast bullets in 45acp.

So will I. They just don't seem to be too scared of much now days.

I shot 2 young ones yesterday at 5-10 yards with my .22 rifle. I was out scouting for the upcoming deer and turkey seasons and they came walking down a dry creek bed right towards me like they didn't...
Forum: Reloading Equipment
Or go with a Lee classic turret press. I use the four hole turrets. I do seat the bullets and crimp in separate steps. I've never had any problems reloading for the same calibers that you are.

I have one in .54cal with both barrels. I've been having so much fun with the 1 in 32 twist hunter barrel that I have yet to shoot the round ball barrel. It's still in the box. This rifle is accurate...
Forum: Black Powder Cartridge
Yes you can use the Holy Black in 44 spec and 45lc. Lyman puts out a manual listing black powder load info for muzzle loaders and cartridge guns. Both 44 and 45 are listed.

The Bass Pro outside of Macon also carries Goes when they can get it. They told me it doesn't stay in the store very l9ng.
