When I was practicing for firearms instructor school, I dry fired at least 10 times more than I shot live ammo. The course was a PPC match 5, IIRC, and I also dry fired and utilized dummy round...

Low is rolling the wrist or anticipating the recoil. The cure for this is to dry fire. Once you can dry fire and the sights do not move off the target, you have improved your technique.

The...

Dry fire, Dry fire, Dry fire is the cure for many improper trigger techniques.

Is this shooting 1 handed or 2 handed?

Likely too much finger on the trigger. Try the center of the pad of your...

I have to wonder if you will ever get this barrel to shoot without leading. If the chamber is in spec, you are probably going to have trouble getting a fat 0.359 (minimum) or a 0.360/0.361 bullet to...

Just fill the cavity of a seating stem with hot glue and shave flat with a razor blade or knife. Then you are pushing a flat capsule with a flat seater plug.

It is now cataloged as a 360-313-FN

Yes, the 35-310 thumper is a bore rider.

If you have a 358 mold already, I would buy a custom sizer 0.001-0.002 over your groove diameter and size boolits you already have available. They will shoot just fine.

If you don't have a mold...

Excellent suggestion.

!!!!!Nobody is saying screw the die all the way in for the caliber the die was designed for!!!!!

The case mouth is nominally 0.008" (0.327") smaller than the FCD desgnated caliber (0.335")

This...

It probably would at that. The FCD can already put a hefty crimp on 30 cal cases. If the 0.327" is loaded diameter, the OP may only need to crimp to 0.329 or 0.330 anyway.

But widening the gaps...

No experience with a hand plier-type crimper, but this is also how the rifle-type factory crimp die works. Is there a way to use or modify the FCD for your cartridge in a standard press?. It would...

The 351 is a bit of an oddball. You definitely need to size down or get a custom mold to shoot as cast. I don't really see any way around it.

What exactly are you considering a carbon ring? Location?

You obviously have a fluted chamber, but what I am seeing rearward if the flutes has me curious if it is a carbon ring or a stepped...

IIRC, Primed brass ships same as ammo, but cannot be bulk (loose). It must be packaged so that the primers are protected from detonation, such as factory boxes or ammo boxes.

No xrf close to me.

Thank you, this is the information I was looking for. I still need to verify by sending a sample to BNE, or casting a boolit and testing hardness, but preliminary, just wanting to knownif anyone had...

I have a 6" i bought last fall, LNIB. I was looking for a 4", but the 6" still balances well in a Kframe. I was not a fan of the 686 6" 357 I had. It was a bit too muzzle heavy for my taste.

I will have to look, but only one code worked for powder. it was the code sent when i signed up for text messaging. None of the AR15, bullet, cngears or other codes worked on powder on sale.

And with a 10% coupon code, price is $21.50 per pound. I ordered 3 lbs just to see how I like it.

Well, you would have a stepped barrel of you proceed with an encore. The Encore breech uses a barrel diameter of approximately 0.997". You would need to have the breech or entire barrel turned to...

Lead carbonate, previously used in paint decomposes in pure form at 315C/599F releasing toxic fumes.

Lead carbonate is not metallic lead, either.

I would find another reference besides "thisoldhouse.com" Don't believe everything you read on the internet.

According to some scientific references, the vaporization rate of lead is...

Yes, but the Arsenal grooves are crimp grooves. The pic in the OP looks to have rounded grooves, not exactly the same.

A "small" brass ball on a stem, about BB size to reach in from the end of the die to break the edge on the lube holes.
