Why not powder coat? What lube should I use on the bullets? Usually when I load black I just have a wad under the ball. Only lubes I have are either PC or Lee Liquid Alox.

This is going to be interesting. All I have is GOEX 3F and Olde Eysnford 3F. What I always liked is a grain weight load, instead of load then crunch. Seems more repeatable that way, even though my...

It would just be for range blasting, maybe 50 yards max. Thank you all for your help. Might get that conversion cylinder when they come back in stock.

Holy resurrected thread, Batman! But sure, why not? Can you find plated data for that powder? If so, use plated data for powder coated cast boolits. If you can't find any data, try writing the...

I loved my M-38, miss it sometimes. When I was dirt poor it was the only rifle I had, good shooter that kicked like an enraged mule with Czech Light Ball.
