    Pistol calibers that start with a "4" are more effective than those that don't.

    The one I heard was "you can't reload 22 rim fire" No "you" can't reload 22 rimfire, "I" can do just about anything.

    Lever actions are not very accurate and not very useful past 100 yards.

    Scopes ruin Lever Actions and serve no purpose on them.

    Lever actions require full-length sized cartridges to function.

    Scopes serve no purose when hunting ranges are under 100 yards.

    1. Alloy hardness stops leading!

    2. Smoke your mold!

    3. Beeswax or Alox for mold lube.

    I wasted a lot of time and molds from these three BS lines, all info provided by "well respected" companies.

    Glocks can't shoot cast!

    Forgot that one. Maybe I just got 3 in a row that are special. My 30S has never fired a j word.

    Beeswax works well for removing lead build up on hot molds though.
