That's the way I do it too! Sometimes I'll find a dowel that is similar in diameter and use it alsoo.
Forum: Hunting with CB's
I have enough rifles that I no longer just use one to hunt. I shoot between 65K and 100K bullets a year, but for hunting purposes, I just grab whichever one strikes my fancy and use maybe 5 rounds...

Burn rate charts are your new best friend when there are limited powders available.
Forum: Case Forming / Re-forming
The 6.5C is NOT a perfect case for fireforming. The shoulder junction is shorter than the 300S case. Your best bet would be to form a false shoulder by expanding the 6.5C then fire forming it. I...

Forum: Boolit Lube !
Yes, it can go bad. I had some Lyman NRA lube that turned into a mushy, moldy, mess. However, I also have some Carnauba Red older than yours that I still use.
I was wanting one of the early model 24's for years, but they were always a bit spendy. Got my hands on a 5 1/2" Lipsey in 44 special and never looked back.

It has always amazed me that no one in my area harvests shot from the local trap or skeet range. I use a colander made for washing rice to classify the larger pieces of rocks and clay birds, put it...
I've used 6.1 grs. 231 behind a 160 gr. bullet in my 357's for plinking. It should be plenty powerful enough for 50 yard plates.
