Don,
I agree on the economics and time value of your arguement, however you are closer to my self-sufficiency argument than even I practice.

Why cast in the first place?
Because you can, you enjoy it, it promotes self-sufficiency.
If things get real nasty in this country, that self-sufficiency may just save your life or that of a...

Well, I got brave this afternoon!
I flipped the jaws on my Coax press from large to small ('06 + to .223 size) and survived! This my personal first flip and I maintained my sanity and lost very...

I really like my 480 SRH. More good brass would do nicely.
In the meantime, I just work my 44s more dillegently.

Great stuff there!
I built my own heater base and fitted it with a couple of magnetic engine heater units. I am pleasantly surprised that a 100 watt light bulb can heat that well.

I thought about making my own links, but I have not seen where the original ones are that onerous yet.
If I go with curved links that have "horns" to maintain minimal overcentering, perhaps I get...

If so, are you prone to skin your hands on those protruding horns?

Yes, my Coax is definitely a keeper! I watched/read just about every review and article I found on the net plus volumes of posts on forums before I dove in.

I have been admiring the Coax from afar for some time but just acquired one and had my first session with it.
