And I believe that we're talking about at least three different tasks here. If I understand correctly, the OP wants to remove/ream primer pocket crimps, not necessarily uniform primer pockets. I'm...

Also old Colts (and probably S&Ws, too). I think that a lot of the issues that people experience with .45 Colt revolvers stem from oversize chambers. Custom revolversmiths wouldn't be rechambering...

There are many, many videos on this very subject on YouTube.

There is at least one source here in the US, Radford Arsenal in VA. They are strictly a USG provider, I believe.

Now that primers are becoming more readily available - if still highly overpriced - we have to worry about powder. Alliant has stopped production of canister grade powders for the indefinite future....

No, I should have specified. I was referring to Jerrow's Inletting Black (and Gold). I guess since everyone has gone to plastic or synthetic stocks, nobody has a need for inletting black any...

Looks like nobody offers it any longer - or it's permanently out of stock. Try Kiwi black shoe polish in the round can, or lipstick.

Nope, I'm right in there with you.

I feel that cleaning primer pockets is highly over rated for the most part. I quit decades ago, and haven't noticed any difference. I have heard of very rare instances where there was so much ash...

That's what attorneys frequently charge when receiving compensation from class action suits. Seems fair to me.

I recall that I bought a small lot of .45 ACP ammo from a local commercial reloader for the price of the components because it wouldn't feed in any gun he had tested it in. I taper crimped it, and...

I bought my taper crimp die in 1981, so I suppose they became popular a few years before that - probably the mid-70s. IIRC, Phil Sharpe also postulated that reloading the .45 ACP was impractical,...

I, too, recall when taper crimping .45 ACP ammo became a thing, and you had to buy the TC die separately. I still have (and use) mine. I probably should update my RCBS .45 ACP dies one of these...

The deburring tool supposedly deburs and chamfers simultaneously, once properly adjusted. I have found that it does neither one very well, and mine remains in 'The Box.' You know, the box full of...

I've seen too much new brass that had out-of-round case mouths. It all get sized before loading.

I had a Chinesium 'crescent' wrench fail me recently, and went looking for another made in USA replacement. Better hit Ebay and the pawn shops; the "good" ones are made in Spain, now. The forge(s)...

It beats up the external threads - probably not enough to actually hurt anything, but close inspection makes it very evident.

My experience is to NOT leave parts in Evapo-Rust as long as they say to. If you leave bright steel parts in there overnight (like they recommend), they turn black. That makes them highly...

Talk to the folks at NOE and see what they recommend. Just a thought.

Yes, we as a nation have lost the rule of law. The Pittsburgh, PA police will now not respond to anything other than violent felonies, and not even those from 3:00 AM to 7:00 AM because their...

Lee offers an undersize decapping pin for their universal decapping die, and they also offer the die with the pin installed.
...

Yes, 7.62X39 brass has been made with both LRP and SRP size primer pockets. In today's market, I would prefer SRP brass.

I disagree. The dealership will sell them for full MSRP plus an additional $5K or so as 'additional dealership profit margin,' or some such crap. Kinda like they do now with extremely popular cars...

They CLAIM that they still make .480 brass; they just haven't done a production run in about 2 years, due to low demand. I'll wager that at least 50% of the people buying their .475 Linebaugh brass...

I have seen a lot of the Bubbasmiffed Mauser actions that Larry mentioned over the years. Don't be Bubba.
