2 3/4inch 7.5's are dove slayers in my 28 but the steel in that length is a tad enemic. I use the 3inch Federal #3's in steel and they really work well on ducks. I don't load steel but do load for...

I use a rcbs separator to separate the pins from the brass. I then pour the water off the pins. There is nothing left in the barrel and the pins are still wet to the touch. If you run your hands...

I have been using this straight during the day for over a month. It started slowly with the water getting darker then almost black. If you run your fingers through the pins your hands would be black....

Did you do anything to the barrel to kind of seal it so the black would not rub off. Don't know if my barrel has gone too far to be saved.

They are not cheap. For the Rubber barrel and that rubber gasket on the top is about $80.

I have a Thumblers Tumbler Model B I have had and used for about 40 years. About 6 years ago I started using the wet process with stainless pins for polishing my brass. Using 5 lbs of pins and a...

I think backing off on the spring pressure would alleviate most of the issue.

I have a first year production Win 9422 that has worked flawlessly. Maybe i just got a good one.

I received a H&R 22 from CMP several years that has the paper tube in the barrel. I reckon I should remove it and shoot the rifle one of these days.

I have a 1873 in 44-40 made around 1878. The barrell on its was actualy oval where I guess it was cleaned to much. The bullets would keyhole at 25 yards. So it was going to be a wall hanger or have...

Don't know if you shoot much shotgun stuff but a 28 gauge is mighty easy on the shoulder.

Take a look at the Redding powder measures. A bit pricey but work really well

What Lyman H&I dies are you looking for.

The rcbs bench priming took is hard to beat. Use the pickup tubes that hold about 60 primers and off you go. I use several priming tubes loaded up and I think it is pretty easy and have good seating...

How do you get Keith to answer a request. I’ve been trying to get one of his Lyman tools for quite so time

A lot of good ideas have been posted here. Just another thing to try is the angle you are holding the mold when casting. Sometimes a mold requires a slight tilt one way or another to completely fill...

I've got a Kubota 5040 which is too big for your use but for me it is perfect. It has a 1/2-yard bucket a bush hog and forklift blades for it. Had it since 2008 and have only had to do regular...

I’ve found that from 15 to 30 minutes gives me the best results. I’ve tried 2 hours before with the brass looking worse than when I put it in. Just my take

Years ago I had a couple of old model rugers returned for the conversion and both had the old parts returned to me in a sealed plastic bag. I still have them in my shop somewhere.

Use acetone and it will take the sticky stuff off. It will leave the finish a dull matte look and it will also take any decals off as if that really matters. I had that issue with a Nikon...

I believe diet and exercise is the best fix. My cholesterol was at one time over a thousand. Docs said I should not even be alive. I went on several statins niacin and a host of others. My diet then...

I think the Lyman manual does a pretty good job of explaining the basics, of course they are using their products, but the theory is the same.

I have a 30 Rem neck sizer and new Win 30 Rem brass. I also have a 30 Newton seater, but I have no idea if that would work for this application.
