Last run of brass for 32-40 was around 2010-2012 or so. Don't know if WW will do them again or not. They were apparently doing them about every 10 yrs or so after they quit building ammo. Still popular with shooters in the ASSRA Schuetzen matches, which Coors sponsored up to 1993. I just sold...

Haven't really delved into looking at what options FA has for other shellholder sets, the ones that come with will cover a lot of ammo needs, but certainly not all of them by the look of it. May be that they won't offer any others, so a person may have to check that before buying.

That sounds kinda sad. Just getting back into playing with my Bee, I built it on a Stevens 044-1/2 in 1992. Tried out some Lil Gun for the first time, it impressed me, a lot. It seemed to be building pressure PDQ, I started at 12gr and hit 3250 at 13.0gr., made me wonder, but, no obvious signs...

It should help us here in Canada, a bit, not a lot. We may possibly have access to bullets and brass again, but, if I read it right, only up to 100.00 retail per shipment, that doesn't go very far. Still can't bring it back with us. Don't cheer too loud for Trump on this, as much as I hate the...

I love my singleshots. I started with a CIL/Anschutz bolt action .22 as a first gun. I always liked the pics of schuetzen rifles in the few articles there were on them, and the Ruger #1. At present I have a #1 in .32-30Rem and 450/400NE 3". I took a fire sale Browning 1885 in .22-250 and...

I used a few different things over the years, .223,22-250, 6.5x55, 7x57,7-08, 7mm Rem Mag, 300Rook, 30RBlaser, 300H&H 32-30Rem, 32-40win, .338win mag, 450-400ne, .410,20ga and 12ga.. I try to do larger batches of ammo to last me a while in each cartridge. I am more into "the guns I always...

I essentially stole this NMRA bench off a fella at work that was getting divorced for 150.00, around 1984 or so. I ended up running out of storage, so added the other bench and a powder mag. Casting stuff is out in the garage.

They are not cheap, but, are a good tool, here is your link; http://www.21stcenturyshooting.com/Priming_Tool.php

I bought a Chargemaster, fiddled around with it once so far. Takes a lot of setup time initially, you are supposed to let it warm up for 1/2hr, it has to be levelled, it has to be calibrated, and recalibrated. Then it threw 1/2gr heavy. In the time I spent setting it up, I could have done what...

The most dangerous, and expensive thing, about casting your own, is the next gun show or visiting a gun shop. You will invariably look at a gun and then it goes something like this; Niiiice gun, hmmmm, I have a mould for that caliber ( or, mould is $xx.xx ). I have sizers (add $xx.xx), I have...

If you have Lee trays, try a 21st century retrofit on the body, can still use the trays and shellholders, the ergonomics are way better, and it really is a nice unit to use.
