I have had very good results with that boolit unsized. I seat the gas check using a .312 lyman sizer and just push in far enough to seat the check and not size the boolit, then tumble lube with a...

Just another note:
I have not loaded with the powders you mentioned, but I have loaded a lot of Alliant 2400 which is a very fine powder. The Lee Perfect Powder measure does well...

I have had nothing but good luck with mine. You can't go wrong with the Lee perfect measure, accurate and cheap. As with any powder measure technique is important in getting accurate charges,...

I have noticed that my shiney pretty boolits are generally the heaviest and if the mould gets hot and boolits begin to frost those boolits are consistantly lighter. I have not thougth to measure...

My Czech 98/22 slugs a groove dia. at .323 and I size the Lee 175 8mm boolit to .325 in a Lyman lubesizer with with 50/50 Lyman alox/beewax. That combination will shoot inch and a half on a good day...

I called them just a few days ago, they have no mauser actions of any kind in stock. I asked when they would have some and the lady had no idea. They just continue to advirtise.

I also use the Hornady One Shot lube before sizing and then I give them a quick tumble wash in laquer thinner then air dry. I heat my Lee LA in a hot cup of water dribble it over boolits and tumble....

I had the same thing happen with a 91/30 shooting .308 J-bullets and a medium speed powder. It is the neck not expanding to make a seal and letting back presure dent your case. In my opinoin the...

I know I will catch hell for this post, but counterboring really is not rocket science. A drill bit just larger than groove diameter will do the trick. Secure the rifle in a vise or otherwise, use...

Ricochet, I'm using the Lee 312-155 boolit in my K-31 with excellent results, you can search my previous post on loading for the K-31. Mine cast exactly the same as yours and I seat it at a OAL of...

catshooter, I am interested in this group buy. What is the cut off date and what do you think the turn around time will be once the order is placed?
Thanks David

454PB is correct! I built my ingot moulds all welds on the outside and they worked very well but when I did overfill the molten lead would seep between the cavities and the ingots would stick. ...

I tried the wrap around meathod using a .006 brass feeler gauge and pinched good and tight with needlenose pliers. The slug measured .322 and then subtract .012 that gives .310. Of course the...

I agree the throat dia. is the most important measurement but I want to know the bore dia. also. I think the nose dia. of the cast boolit should be a fit to the bore for the best accuarcy in my...
Forum: Cast Boolits
Yeah thats what I did and best guess is about .310 groove dia. but I want to know the bore dia. also.

mike in co, you have got to try the Lee collet dies if you follow the instructions (size, rotate 180degrees and size again) you will get very good bullet grip and very accurate ammo and minimal work....
