Thanks! Brass molds sure are good looking!

I’ve been pondering a double .600 ball load. The tri-ball is impressive! Maybe even excessive. Single .600 ball is nice. 44 mag carbine territory. I’d like some tips for your double ball recipe if...

Look carefully at the bullet shape of the bullet of the Federal 22 Punch defensive ammunition.
I’d wager they put some research into it.

I’ll claim first place in line if the time comes that you get tired of it.
True wildcat on a Contender. Like peas in a pod!
Have you tried the spectrum of powder from fastest on hand to slow...

Speaking of rules, there’s no discussion on s&s threads. Maybe you can give yourself some admonishment for dirtying up his listing.
I’m still debating 454 brass in 45/410 chambers and then small primers could be used too.
Thought about notching the rims or something to distinguish it as my ammo. I don’t own a 454 so I’ll not...

I did a baseline accuracy test today. 5 shot group at 40 yards. Roughly 3” when compared to the empty hull. No special effort was put into assembly. Used a 27 MEC bushing with TiteWad...
They have every type of 209 primer in stock and cheap too. Even let me put an $800 Colt 1911 in the cart...
Seems too good to be true. I’ll wait until someone else says they have successfully...
Some of y’all obviously haven’t tried to buy powder in this decade.
The most recent listing for 700X is in Nebraska on swapping and selling FTF sale 773 miles away. (I considered it)

My ignorant self guesses they are an invasive species. Let me know if I’m wrong.
Thanks. Not sure what rock you’re living under, but yeah, I’d take a bunker full of Green Dot if I could find it!
How about sharing some pictures of your mold and boolets too?

Met a young lady from Florida this week. I thought about this thread and asked her if iguanas taste like alligator. She said NO! They taste like glue! Remember when you were a kid in school and...

The capsules are a great idea!
Instead of wax, how about Lee Liquid Alox to stick them in place? Would it degrade the capsule material?
It’s possible. They will stack haphazardly because two pellets side by side is larger than the bore diameter of the 20 gauge.
The stuff seems to last forever. I called them up to get my first bottle. He asked for my address and he said he would send it. I said don’t you need my credit card?
No. There will be a self...
Thumbed through my newest Lyman manual. Plenty of Longshot recipes. Some WSF and HS-6 loads as well. One recipe for N330 but only in Remington hulls, which I have none. But those powders stood out as...
I got the final pound of Unique from a shop in St. Louis a couple of months ago.
Where do you find components in Franklin now that the Franklin gun shop changed ownership?
I wish I could find Green Dot. Been looking for a couple of years.
Haven’t found anything clays in a long time either. Heard from the owner of a class 3 shop that the equipment to produce it was...
Thank you Sir. Great advice as always.
Locally there’s not much available between Longshot and TiteWad. If I’m gonna pay hazmat, might as well make it worthwhile.
Alliant powders are only...
I’d suggest at least a 200 grain bullet. You will gain significantly more bearing surface and likely much better accuracy sooner with less development to get there.
The 450 Bushmaster is a large...
Good morning everyone. I’m getting ready to start reloading the 20 gauge 2-3/4” and I’m trying to decide on a couple of powders to start with. At this point in my life I prefer to buy 8 lb or 4 lb...
