GWS, I need a favor. I want to re-print the main body "Main_Body_ETZGMP38" because I am tired of my cases getting stuck in the screw holes on the side of the body. I have tried putting screws in...

charlieb, my Springfield XDM 45 does have a throat where the brass stops. I really don't want to do any modifications on the barrel just so I can shoot cast bullets. The 9mm rounds which I have not...

Okay here is an update now that I am home.
I took a few plain lead 200gr HP and sized them to 402, I sized my case and added the flare to accept the bullets. Once I pressed the bullet in and made...

I don't remember the size offhand, but I kept pushing the bullet in a little at a time to see how deep I had to go in order for it to chamber properly. When I get home I am going to test one without...
Forum: Cast Boolits
This is why I scrapped all those rounds once I saw how low that bullet needed to be seated into the case. I haven't tested my 9mm cast rounds yet but I am really hoping that I don't have this same...

Hi Everyone,
What are you guys using to size the nose on your cast bullets these days? I started loading some .452 cast over the weekend and ran into a surprise where my loads were not...

This is awesome. The rubber is a pain since its not really holding the shaft properly, with something solid I think it will work better.
I have to measure and then order one of those couplings.

Does anyone have one of these motorized units and they modified the shaft with the rubber to use something else besides the rubber? I recently got my unit and while I was trimming it bogged down on...

Trying to remember from the top of my head I think its 15, I use the Wheeler torque wrench. When I get home today I am going to check again and see what I can figure out.
I am looking at the MOA as I turn the elevation dial, if I hold the scope in my hand I can get 35" in the direction I need to go in. Once I mount the scope I fall short 6" so I am not getting the...
I decided to order a 20MOA rail to mount on the rifle and it will give me the necessary elevation that I need.
Hi Everyone,
I am not understanding this and hope that someone can explain it to me.
While holding the scope in my hand I can adjust the elevation to 35" before its maxed out. While the...

Guys, is there a chart that shows the best bullet weight according to twist rate?
I did some googling and found so many variances so I figured I would just ask here.
Thanks
