I had one of those Lyman "Twofer" 38/357 molds. I think it was a 358-624, but I only had it for about a year and seldom used it. IIRC it was about 1980, but I'll never forget how bad my memory is....

That is the NOE clone of the RCBS 30-180FN and that was my favorite 30-30 caliber mold for rams back in the oughts. Mine was an RCBS and cast the nose @ .300, the body @ .310. It was a very...

In the past, I recommended Lyman's 3rd Edition Cast bullet Handbook over everything, but so many of the powders listed are no longer available, I grudgingly say get the 4th edition. Especially,...

Stands to reason: just paid taxes, bought a new computer and a Ruger 327 SP101, then 600 bucks in vet bills, so the new toy fund is empty. A 5 1/2 inch Bisley would really be nice. i should have...

I use the the MP mold below, it works well and runs about 150 grains with my range lead alloy.

In a 38 Special, an eighth of an inch was enough to nearly double the pressure of a 2.7 Bullseye load. This was researched by Hercules back in the 70's after a blowup or three in police revolvers...

The advantage of being able to shoot 32 ACP is not like backing to the grocery store when you have a choice. It's like eating the pickled herring sandwich that is all you have to eat. The other...

As the title states, I just bought 5,000 SP primers from Midsouth, Aguila, IRC. $369.00 with tax, no Hazmat, free shipping, delivered. Just about triple the cost of what my last purchase ran, back...

Sometimes, you can't get there from here.

Although NOE, Accurate, and MP have made or still make excellent 44 caliber molds, (The 230 grain NOE is excellent,) unless you are going to single...

I had a S&W 69, but mine was a toadlicker, leaded like crazy with undersized throats and a barrel that looked as though it had been rifled with a hand full of gravel. S&W's non-reponse to my e-mail...

This is yet another silly attempt to make "something different" that not one person in 10,000 has any use for. A huge revolver only suitable for hunting, and offering little to no advantages over...

Thanks for the heads up, ohen. I ordered a 327 SP101 and it should be in my hands by next Tuesday! With tax and my dealers fee, It'll run me a shade less than $750.00 OTD Those of you with no...

IME, they are made out of unicorn horns. I have never seen one.

Years ago, I made an impact puller from a 6 inch long, 1/2 inch nipple and an end cap, using a washer to keep the cartridges from falling through. Mine only worked on rimmed cartridges, but in those...

I have 4, and owned a fifth, 3 Single7's and a 4 inch Sp101 currently. I had a Blackhawk 8 shooter, but that was much too much iron for such a small caliber. I cannot agree with Outpost on this...

Hey Fred, my copy of Speer 14 shows (p. 970) 8.2 grains as max with Unique, but with 1015 fps, not 1150. Quite frankly, I don't know that you can get there from here with powders listed. That...

+1 on the 3.0 grains of 231, I have used it with a 311-008 in my post war I frame, but have not been bold enough to use it in my older, 1920's gun. 3.2-3.5 grains of Unique is also worth...

The one real drawback to PC versus LLA or 45/45/10 is that it is time consuming. If you are a high volume shooter, it adds a half hour plus per tray, versus simple tumble lube. I seldom do it...

If you get your 327 as nice as the one Greenfrog has, you'll be very, very happy. I'd love to have one but for now, they're out of my price range. But I hope Lipsey's is listening. A 6 inch 327...

^What he said. I shot a Ruger, with the RCBS 429-240 SIL Silhouette boolit over 24.0 grains H-110. I had fun.

I would start @ 3.8 grains of PP with your 311-008 clone and nudge it up .2 grains at a time to a max of 4.6 grains, stopping when I got best accuracy. I might go higher, if the gun was newly made,...

On further observation, the "new 4th Edition" is now 14 years old. quite a few powders have come and gone over the last 14 years.

For a couple of years I had a pair of goggles with a blob of lead right in front of my right eye. I was pouring some sprues back in the pot when a larger piece fell off the spoon and splashed up at...

Mine is a 1938 S/42 Mauser Werke gun, also one of the 90's imports. Mine was supposedly imported from Estonia after the wall came down, but I offer no guarantee of that info. My guess is that given...

@ BMI The rumor that I heard was that there was a concern that the plating would flake off in the bore and become copper fouling. I stress that this was a rumor, that I heard from a fellow who...
