Do not know how to post pictures. My Lee press has the 4 hole plate. Press has 3 rods which connect top of press to bottom. Bolts are in top end of rods and bolt
heads sit lower than plate. I took...

The turret has "play" between the plate and the press frame. I solved the problem on mine by placing a large washer under one of the top bolts which extends over the edge of the turret plate. When...
I would go with gas checks and the mold will depend on what the gun likes.

If your sizer has a set screw to hold top punch in, throw it away. A SMAL dab of grease on stem will hold it in.

AGREE 100%. Shooting game at long range is not hunting! It's shooting! What is the challenge in that? Stalking is part of hunting. Do archery hunters shoot at long range?

Have not shot a buck in over 10 yrs. but I sure do like to see them. Have passed them up for the son-in-law to get. When it comes time for meat I try to pick an old doe. Have got lots of horns on the...

Have not been able to find extension rings for quite some time. You could consider installing a long eye relief scope as used on shotguns or mussleloaders.

IMO just not worth the risk. Is a pound or two of powder worth more than your gun or your limbs or your life. Just dumped 4 lbs. of H-1000 for red dust.

I have fire-lapped numerous barrels [rifles] for customers and my own over the years and all showed improvement in accuracy. In fact, my habit when I purchased a used rifle was to fire-lap the bore...

Having a milling machine I made my own out of aluminum for my Lee pots. I suggest that you use wood 2x4 or what fits under your pot to raise your molds to your desired height under the pot spout. Get...
