When working up an accuracy load for a .44 mag, how much do you increase the powder charge for each group of cases. Do you increase the powder charge by 2 tenths, 1/4 or 1/2 grain for each test...

Just a comment on your bullet choice for deer and the .257 Wthby.
I read a article in the Varmint hunter magazine written by a long time shooter of the .257 Wthby.
I called him up and...

I was reading an old Hensley & Gibbs catalog and noticed they offer a service of resurfacing a damaged mold. They referred to a mold that might have a small chip at the cavity's edge.

Any idea how...

Thanks for the link. I did a search but struck out.

Does one style of grove hold lube better than others? (straight walled flat bottom, round bottom or a slopped wall).

Do the different grove designs aid lead flow and help bullets drop from molds...

I like to find a H&G #503 flat base four cavity mold.

I would like to trade it for a nice H & G 4 cavity #503 .44 flat base mold.

You don't happen to have one of those do you?

Hal

Is there any place or someone that deals in used molds, for a .44 mag?

Hal

I have 3 H&G, A Lyman mold for muzzle loader and a old rusty Winchester mold.

Hal

The 32-20 H&G mold is a #67.

Hal

What a way to start the new year.

Hal

Sorry not to reply sooner.

Its a new or near new 4 cavity Hensley & Gibbs for a .32-20.
I'll have to check on the number and get back with you.

Do you have molds for sale?

Is it cost effective to have a mold re cut ?

Change a four cavity .32 to .38 or .44. .


Anyone know who does mold re cutting?

Thanks

The cylinder throats and the bore diameter of the barrel measures .430+ on my Freedom Arms .44 Mag.

What diameter bullets should I start with ? I was going a few different bullets and see what...

Thanks you for the helpful hints.

I was going to use the Pin Gages to check my measurments on the cylinder throats.

I use a set of dial calipers to measure the groves,or the top of the rifling imprint, on the slug, as the...

You were right I made a mistake. See if these measurements sound better.

I used a soft lead .45 cal. muzzle loader ball as a slug and measured with a good Mitutoyo micrometer.

I...

Well I called my friend and he didn't have any pin gauges.

I'll go remeasure my lead slugs.

Hal

What measurements are you questioning and I'll double check them.
It's sure easy to get an incorrect reading.

I'll call a friend that might have a set of pin gauges.


Hal

Thanks for the replies.
