I have two of them and I really like using them. They're slow but I have found them to be quite accurate. At least, they are when you use them the same every time. I use them with stick powder. Hold...

I've never heard of them but I'd be VERY leery of them. Their about/history page seems very similar to John Harvey at HG Firearms. There's no address, but I would bet this company is based in Lake...
I just ordered mine. It should be here by the end of the week. I can't wait to try it out!

They look great. Question: How big are they?

I had a guy tell me he was getting 4000 fps out of factory 270 Win ammo. Nope, nope you're not.
Yes! I can't wait! Any idea when it will officially be for sale?

The LGS has some old powder they bought off of someone. I picked up two sealed 1 pound cardboard tubes of Red Dot (first time I've ever used it) for $15 apiece. I also got a sealed, still wrapped in...
Is it a double or single cavity? I have a single cavity, and I have to keep it HOT to cast right. Those are itty bitty bullets. Run it how and run it fast.

BulletFlight is a pretty nice ballistics app I use. It has a catalog of almost all the bullets from major manufacturers. You can input environmentals and specific data about your load and it figures...

I like powder measures. I collect them. I think they're really neat. That's why I have as many as I do. I think some other people are the same way. But my collection is useful, too. I can set one...

I don't know their value, but based on the interest shown, I think an auction would be the best way to sell them.

1. Get a really cheap RC car with a pull behind wagon
2. Obtain some clear blast shields to hide behind
3. Build a big bonfire in the middle of no where
4. Drive RC car into fire with ammo in the...

PWS, could you post a picture of your press for us? I know I'd love to see it and I bet some others would too.

I think I'll get an adapter to use 310 dies. I'll probably call Dave and CH and see what he can do. But shell holders might be a problem. If it actually is threaded 5/8"-18, maybe I could get some...

Ok Brian. Enough advertising and playing around. I almost had to place an order just looking at your posts. Get back to work! :)

358 Winchester: I think it's an awesome caliber. That might be my next purchase.
375 H&H: If I have one, it might mean I get to go to Africa.
22 Hornet: They just seem like so much fun!

Can one of you gentleman tell me what Hollywood shell holders are threaded? Just wondering, for comparison. Did any of the old makers make dies threaded .618"-18 that screw into a larger main die...

Any idea if any company made dies threaded 1"-14?

I recently purchased a vintage c press off of everyone's favorite auction site. I don't really need one but it was old, neat, and cheap. I suspected it was a small shop, one off, non standard press....

Now those almost just aren't fair, they're so pretty.

That'd be one hard hitting wadcutter! Powder coating might be in order.

That would be one fine gun! I think that an AR-10 .358 Win would be the best brush gun you can get. Just my own humble opinion. But I would love to have one.

I'm not sure, but I bet that's HG Firearm's new name. Same city.
