I'm watching too, as I have a Bond Arms derringer, single shot bolt action, Savage 24 and a semi-auto .410 AR contraption.

I've never have seen the need for a PID for melting lead, but I'm not the perfectionist most of you guys are.

I used JB Weld to put the sights on my old double barrel I'm making into an express rifle.
Forum: Processing wild game
I had a lot of Pidgeon soup when I was young, it was my dad's favorite, but that was the only wild game food we ate.
I have a young friend that likes about any kind of wild game food.
I jokingly...

I am more of a beef, pork, and chicken eater.
I don't have a problem with deer but have not grown up eating unorthodox critters.
If it gets to the point where I have no choice, then fine.

Forum: Factory Rifles
If enough people want them and are vocal about it, someone will make them.
As I said before, I prefer lever actions.

I have the same mold but have never used it yet.
I was wondering the same thing, I cast with wheel weights.
Not a shotgun guy but since I just bought a new CZ-USA Hammer Classic I may become one.

Nothing wrong with petroleum, been making the world a better place since the late 1800s.

Just try the ultrasonic cleaner first, and give it plenty of time to work.
You can always send it in later if for some reason the ultrasonic does not work.
As writing this I am taking my own advice...
Forum: Gunsmithing Tips & Tricks
Drop it into an ultrasonic cleaner.
Most likely dirt got under the detent ball.
Take the grips off first.
