Thank you all. I will send him a link to this thread.

Hi,
My pal in Michigan just won a 6.5 Creedmore rifle at a UP Whitetails banquet. He is shopping for components, and has found 6.5 Creedmore brass available with large or small primer pockets. He...

I cleaned out years of crud from these dies.

What kind of alcohol would you use to dilute the dye?

I have a DR stump grinder. It works great for what I would call homeowner use. If you were trying to make a living using it, you would get something bigger on day two. It takes time but it gets...

I have bought 5 guns off GB. All shipped to my local FFL guy. 100% satisfaction.

Shoved to the back of a cupboard, I found an 8 lb. jug of 2400 that I didn't know was there. I was so happy

The blue capsules were an estate sale find. I had bought the bag of shot years ago to make some homemade scuba diving weights.

These were right out of the Speer No. 11 Manual. By brother asked me to do some pest control in a barn that he uses as a wedding venue. I could fit about 91 gr. of 7 1/2 shot into the capsules. 5.0...

I never set these crescent butt plates down, so they won't get scratched. I made a few trips to Tandy Leather, and made these butt plate covers. Four more to go.

I poured up a pile of Lee 309-113 Soup Can Boolits

Hi Randy,
It's all good. Thanks for the help.

Hi,
The factory trigger pull on this GP100 was quite heavy. I bought this new spring kit, and installed the 9 lb. spring. I get the occasional failure to fire, due to a light firing pin...

I got this in a box of free stuff. It might appear that is is not closed all the way, but it is. The contact point on the left is a round dome instead of a flat cylinder. It is closed,...

My LP supplier has a propane leak sniffer. It's like a mini metal detector, but with a short sensor probe instead of the long tube that holds the sensor. It starts buzzing when it detects gas, and...

There is a DPMS AR10 (in .308) on the used rack at the LGS. It has a scope mounted and has one magazine.
The price seems reasonable. To those who know, have these DPMS rifles garnered any...

Hi,
I would slip the whole box into a custom Foodsaver bag and vacumn seal the whole thing.

These stars are in a post I recently made. I only got one out of five. Is getting stars a good thing or a bad thing? Am I walking the plank?
Thanks in advance.

I like my Lee Hardness Tester. When I finish a casting session and have reloaded the pot, I make a puck of the contents and then take it down to the Bunker and do a hardness test on it.

My Dad was 21 years old when the draft started, before WW2. He was the first man drafted in Chisago County. He ended up in the Army, in the 164th Infantry Regiment, which was part of the Red Bull...

I would recommend coming up with a good record keeping system, from the very beginning. I would make notes about each load you shoot, and keep them for each firearm.

The snow has finally melted. It seemed like a long winter. I had to get out a couple times. The pile of snow makes a good boolit trap.

Wayne,
Thanks for pointing this out. I didn't realize the the boolits were so soft. I will shoot a few and see how it goes. I'll probably end up using less of a charge.
Jeff

The barrel slugged at .3565". I shot 15 358-429's that were sized at .358. They worked fine, no leading.
Jeff

I know that this topic has been discussed before. For you guys with experience in this matter, are these boolits too pointy to use in a tubular magazine? The rifle is a 35 Remington, and the charge...
