Wearing gloves never hurts, but as long as you don’t lick your hands dry you’ll be fine. These lead compounds don’t readily absorb through your skin. Someone may have been thinking about the...
Many, many discussions on this. Use them, but as usual work up loads esp if you shoot near the top of the suggested powder charge.

Still untrue in his situation, internet myth.

Let’s be honest, it’s really banana cake.

I have this dream of a boyscout troop, 20 boys with air rifles, clearing the iguanas out of a public park or golf course. They could probably do the same thing every weekend and not run out of...

So a “friend” wants you to work for free and get him top dollar. The warning signs are blindingly bright on this “opportunity.”
Best to tell him/her how disappointed you are that you don’t have...

As I understand your specific situation, selling any bullets that you cast is not a violation of federal law, technically or otherwise. I don’t know CA
law.
I think you’ll find that proceeds...

Something else killed your worms, diatomaceous earth won’t harm them.
I’m good with the non easy open frames.
I did recently see one for sale with a 30-30 barrel and thought it was overpriced, but that might just be my age and temperment.

Cimexa (sp?) is similar, but more finely ground I think. I’ve dusted that stuff into walls in a rental as a barrier, works well for a long time. Also works when wet.
These work by abrading the...

I think that I have 15 or 20 lbs of 452AA in original cone tops if anyone near Charlotte needs it. I load some in 45acp, but have way more than I will ever use. Stored indoors of course.

I generally have a beverage at hand, coffee in the morning, water in the afternoon.
Other bad habits, I anneal plinking rifle brass and I roll size pistol brass. Oh, and I seem to have an affinity...

I have one mounted at the center of one end of a bench and one at the front left corner of another bench.
I’ve thought about a parrot vise on a quick release plate, but haven’t done it yet.

I don’t think they care about cost at all, they are concerned about optimizing the effectiveness of the small number of soldiers they plan to field in future engagements. Plus, the optics software...

I supplemented one of those with a few 12 pt crowfoot sockets, the ones with the open side to fit over pipes. More expensive, but awesome to work with! Of course the best thing is to disconnect...

Curious if the person mentioned if it was IMR4227 that changed to become more like H4227, the opposite, or that both changed. I guess it’s important to use load data from sources with a similar date...

40% heavier and heavier ammo, but it sounds fun!

I swage the primer pocket when the factory primer was crimped, otherwise not.

Had to reread the original post, but I think the key is “ I will only have one die in the press , a size/decap die and then I can inspect the primed brass before putting powder and seating a bullet.”...

Thanks much, I think I’ll skip the next biopsy and just go for the imaging. We’ll see what it is in a few weeks and then decide.

Rather than running it through twice, try loading with a 650. I think it’s the best hobby priming system.

Asking to understand. What if the 40 came up clean?
I’m in the middle of this process, no treatment yet, still in the watching it phase.
