Did you ever pull one of the loaded bullets to see if resizing the case also affected the bullet size?

WOW, how sad. I have ordered felt from them for years to get felt for wads.

I hear you Brother! I got tired of Midways antics with their shipping to Hawaii.

He is a unique personality to say the least.

4# of WW 231 for $39.99 each.

I've been revamping my loads that used TB and Clays and a few other powders that are virtually unobtainium nowadays to WW 231 solely because it is more readily available.

My Tennessee Mountain rifle has a 40" Rice barrel and loves 55 grs. 3F GOEX.

I was running low on 38 bullets so I casted a couple of thousand RCBS 180's.

Loaded a couple of hundred 357 Maxi rounds to empty out of my Seville this weekend.

EABCO still has some dies in stock. They used to sell formed brass for it too. You can also try to ind some 219 Zipper brass and fireform.

You can also use the cylinder pin.

It's a MP bullet and not a Ranch Dog, but your results should be similar. This is from my 5.5" Lipsey 44 special Flattop, using the Skeeter load (7.5 Unique).

Years ago, I had Veral at LBT make me a 44 caliber OWC (Ogival Wadcutter Mold) and have shot hundreds of them through my pistols and Marlin rifle. I have found them very accurate and a joy to shoot.

Hhhhhhhmmm, project number 537.

I have no problem using SPM primers in mostly everything except the 32 ACP.

Absolutely love IMR 3031 for almost everything from 30/30 to 458WM.

Resized 600 .32 115gr. boolits to .3105" for my Blackhawk 30 Carbine.

I also needed to neck turn my Ackley Bee so it would fit in my Bullberry barrel. The only other piece of advice is to use a good lube (Imperial) sparingly and go slowly.

Mihecs 432265 brass mold.

Mine just loves Skeeter Loads!

Maybe they don't want to damage the pins?

I can relate! I got one of my "empty" pistol cases the other day and found a 45 LC Blackhawk I forgot I owned.

Plan on it being available for only 2 or so years!

My FA 83 in 454 will not allow a bullet loaded with .454" bullets into the chamber. The bore is .4515" and the throats are .452".

What size "M" die are you expanding the necks to? It doesn't make any difference what you size the bullet if the case reduces the diameter.
