Read somewhere that Lugers were originally set up for 125 grain conical flat point bullets before WW1. They may be finicky as to bullet weight.
Round nose bullets were resorted to because the...

From its location, that looks like a light of some kind behind your 550. If so, can you tell us what sort it is and where'd you find it.

25 20 ss cases are not available right now, except for the online auction sites at $5 each. Except for Lee collet neck sizing dies, @$50+, dies will run $250 plus. And may not work very well. Yup, I...

Had a high school math teacher who went on to teach at our local university. A really good guy. Also knew a sweet little old lady who had grown up on the same ridge as my teacher. She was riminising...

Ed: Colt wad gun magazines are in the same ballpark, price-wise, and the feed lips are fragile. The owner was happily surprised when the Mec gar magazine worked un-modified.

RCBS H&I dies are pretty hard, too. Had to whet one down to fit a 450 years ago.

When Cabelas was bought out by Bass pro, they dropped their size 15's. And I dropped them. Finding work boots is a pain. Muck Boots make walking possible in the winter, anyway. Thanks for the info on...

Is it possible that a starter from a Predator engine from Harbor Freight would fit? They are supposed to be clones of Hondas. Don't even know if they sell parts, but it won't hurt to ask.

How close are M52 magazines to M39 magazines? There's got to be a block to shorten the front to back dimension for the 9mm in the M39, but that might be removable...This bubbled up when I remembered...

Freak on a leash is quite right, But, have also heard of chain fire when someone who didn't know used patched roundballs in a revolver. Not the way to go.

A friend who has see TSS used remarked that an advantage was that it will shoot clean through the bird when I asked him "How about breaking a tooth when you chow down on said bird?".

Hodgdon will help you with data, as well. E mail or call them. For light loads or midlevel, ask them for cowboy load data.

To neck size 25 20 single shot cases, a 6.5 tcu die was the right size to get the neck to chamber dimensions, and cast bullet (.260) dimension. One problem, thought; the die was too long. Could have...

What grips do you use on your m57? Thanks.

Rintinglen and Ed: Thanks for the information.

How do double action Colt's compare to S&W 32 20's for strength?

Pretty sure it's an radioactive isotope shipping container. They are about as pure a piece of lead as you could find. Take the picture on your cell phone and show it to an x ray-tech at your local...

Seems like 4756 also has a flash supressant in it, too.

A distinguished friend shoots SK in his Victor and Browning, and starts making excuses if he hasn't managed 810-815 in our weekly matches. And has a rag to wipe the oil off his hands when he stops...

Used to shoot at a public range. Setting up a target frame took time and removing it took a lot more. A plastic pop bottle or a can with 3 or 4 gravel dropped in gave enough mass to toss it 15 feet...

Contender 1: Do you have a picture of the Bradshaw/Martin 194 grain bullet? A 357 max 10" contender barrel is stashed around here somewhere. The fellow I bought it from remarked that it was a thumper...

Artifical sinew for Track of the Wolf is prewaxed and more than strong enough.

Worry more about the as cast diameter than the weight. Original TD's run over .460 very often. Don't know what an Italian copy would be, But you ought to find out.

Was looking for .348 gas checks several years ago. Nobody had them; except Hornady. Yup right out of the factory. Their direct sales policy may have changed, but you ought to give them a call.
Don't...

Did you measure the depth of the bolt notch and subtract that from the cylinder wall thickness? That is supposed to be the weak spot of a revolver cylinder.
