Thanks everyone. I have PMed him.

I want to double check some of my alloys. Does anyone know a place where I can mail some lead alloy to get it analyzed?

The Unertl sounds interesting. The problem is the rifle kicks more (quicker) than a 50 bmg, seeing as it is a lot lighter (Ruger No 1). His Leupold has been back to the factory 4 times already. I'll...

I have a friend who shoots a 50-140 smokeless in a Ruger No1 so not a normal 50-140. The problem he is having is he keeps going through namebrand scopes. Any advice on a scope which will stand up to...

If you just need the powder funnel, you can use the Lee Auto Disk. Of course you will need the Lee die for powder. But Lee auto disk works very well on a 550. For small charges associated with 25 acp...

Keep in mind that out of round is not that bad. Out of balance is. Usually if a bullet is out of round, it is across the part line. If you think about it, it is still balanced. Sizing a bullet...

I prefer the RCBS mainly because RCBS stands behind their product so well. But I only like the older ones. The newer RCBS I don't like because of the lack of a ratchet. If something breaks on the...

I also use Eezox. I live in Arkansas and got tired of going out to my loading shed and finding my dies rusted. I started spraying them with Eezox and it has worked very well in humid Arkansas.

If you were willing to change dies, I started a thread on here years ago about how to modify a Lyman top punch for bullet sizing to be used as the seating stem in a Lee seating die. It is also...

I don't know for sure, but I kind of doubt it. Most of their single cavity mold were larger bullets, like 45 rifle or larger.

Another very good option would be accurate molds or mountain molds....

We call them 160 gr, but we have the Lee 158 RF bullets for sale.

I would go with Accurate Molds and get exactly what you want (providing that you do know what you want.) I have always had good success with him.

Also, if you want, I do cast for people using...

Well I haven't purchased anything from Lyman for over 5 years due to lousy quality control and worse service, but judging from some who have posted on this thread they are at least giving good...

You are probably talking about the older Lee group buys. They were unmarked, but the newer molds like MP and NOE are usually marked. My thinking is, does it really matter? If you can cast a sample...

I'll be looking for one. I find it useful to have each edition. I have from 35 on. You find load data in one edition that isn't in the next or vice versa. I refer most often to editions 44-curent....

Finding H&G molds in a load of stuff like that is usually a dream come true, but unfortunately for you, as was said, the ones you found are the most popular and the wadcutter mold in particular is...

Thanks for the replys! BNE is gonna do it for me.

Does anyone know a place you can send off a sample of alloy to get it analyzed?

I know it is not what you are wanting, but another idea is to use a lee auto disk. They are much cheaper and these work very well on a dillon 550 and in fact I actually prefer them in some ways.

You get lube on the base of the boolit when you use too much pressure with too soft of a lube (too soft meaning lube too warm if you are heating it). Once you have lube between the base of the bullet...

Well, the LAM is good for sizing spitzer boolets. That is not easy on a star unless you don't mind flattened points.

I manufacture 500 S&W ammo for sale. I am looking for someone who has 500 s&w handguns in a variety of barrel lengths who would be interested in shooting some of my products and giving me feedback....

This may have been discussed before, but I thought I would share a little tip I have found to work for me. I have some molds where I have issues with lead sticking to the faces of the mold. This is...

I have a lot of molds of different materials. When I was less experienced, I noticed a difference with molds made out of different materials. However, it is my belief that it doesn't make a lot of...

NOE makes these molds and I recommend them. I ran the original group buy for two of them. The have the webley MKI and MKII designs, both 200 grain. I also sell the bullets if you want to go that...
