So sorry for your loss. My dad died in 2015, and I so wish I could pick up the phone and call him, just to talk one more time. Not trying to push anything, but I always find John 5:28, 29 comforting....

2 RCBS Uniflows (1 set up for pistol and one for rifle), a Lee Dipper set, and 5 Lee Auto-Disk PM's with the adjustable powder bar. All of the Lee's are set up on 4 hole turrets for 9mm, 357 Sig, 357...

The Squirrel Daddy pins do work really well. As far as the rust, a little 0000 steel wool will take that right off and then a light coating of some type of gun oil - Ballistol or G96 CLP works...
It's actually 3 different moulds. They are hinged at the top. One (the one with the handles) closes properly. The other two appear to have an issue with the hinges. They mate up with the hinge...
I wound up with these moulds. Hoping the CB brain trust knows what these are. Who makes them? Anywhere to get additional handles?

I wound up with two Freechex - one in .355 and one in .356. It looks like these are not being made anymore. How durable are these? Are there better choices? I am not currently casting. I have some...

Well, Pestilences are a part of the sign of the last days. Not saying this is "IT" as there are still a couple more things that need to happen according to the scriptures (1 Thes. 5:1-5 - a...

Wayne, solid advice. The more you prep now while your brother still has his faculties the better for everyone. The last thing you want down the road is to be second guessing yourself. Find out what...
I have an older less "tacticool" one similar to this one that I picked up off of CL. Works well for me with 3-4 handguns when I head to the range.

Wish I were up in Jacksonville, I would meet you at Singleton's Seafood Shack. The folks at Mayo will take good care of you. I did a lot of work up there for a lot of years before I retired - you are...

Like others have mentioned, I have used pulled pistol primers for light practice loads. I have also set off primers off with my Lee Loader, and a couple of weeks ago, even managed to set one off with...

Winchester 190 - only because that is what I have. It is a tight shooting little rifle. I know it is nothing fancy, but it has taken many squirrel, 'possums and the occasional aggressive racoon.

I inherited a Winchester 190 from my dad and I don't think it had been cleaned since I moved out on my own over 30 years before. I took it apart and cleaned it really good and probably will not do...

i know some folks look down their nose at Lee products, but personally, I think they give the most bang for the buck!
Purchased a M&P 40C this week and am contemplating obtaining a 357 Sig Barrel for it. Was wondering if anyone had tried this and if so, what were your experiences/ recommendations?
Forum: Factory & Surplus Powder
I have 3 sealed bottles in the shop and not a cartridge to load with it. Had contemplated getting a 30-30, but to me, kind of seemed backwards to buy a rifle just to use up 3lbs of powder.

I wound up with a bunch of roughly 3 lb ingots made from 63/37 tin lead solder. Is this mix good for casting? I am still on the fence about casting my own. Been lurking for a while, but still not...

I have seen some whiz bang gadgets in my time, but this one is pretty neat...or at least I think it is. It looks like a 28 gauge all in one reloading die. A 28 gauge shotshell fits perfectly. The...
