I got tired of looking at a white concrete wall while I was reloading. Now I have a spot fit for a cowboy to reload my .45 Colt and .45-70
I don't shoot competitively or anything yet, although someday I would like to. I wouldn't mind a more stout load. The trail boss loads are pretty...
I will have to up my powder charge a bit I think. I've been getting crappy accuracy with these loads anyway. Maybe I should try some unique too....
According to your chart you sent, trailboss with a 250 grain LRNFP starting load is 4.5 grains. I have the data from my book below as well. At 4.8...
So I was shooting some .45 colt handloads the other day and one of my rounds had a very soft recoil and I watched it pop out the end of the barrel...
I try to be as ethical a hunter as I can, but I also don't have the luxury of climbing up in a heated shack on the edge of a corn field and taking...
Are there any tips or tricks to loading a .45-70 or is it pretty easy? Also, I can't seem to find any carbide dies. Does anyone know of a...
It probably is my technique. I have not owned a lever before. The first time I put a shell in though it scratches the brass up pretty good
I was hoping it would at least punch through some light stuff. There a lots of grasses and thickets on my hunting grounds, but nothing extreme.
Thanks for looking. I won't worry about it. It seems like a wonderful fun. The fit and finish are pretty nice. My only complaint is how stiff the...
An 86' Winchester and sharps are on the bucket list
Yes, I will be picking up some .457 cast bullets. I like the RNFP. I particularly picked out this caliber because I hunt in a lot of brush around...
I have a press but I was just thinking that I am not going to be high volume shooting so a portable kit would be nice to take up north. I will get...
By proper bullets do you mean flat nose so they don't rest on the primer?
So yesterday I purchased my first lever gun, a .45-70 Gov't Marlin 1895SBL. I would like to reload for it. Do I need a full length sizing for for...
Krusty, I see you own the same rifle. I was reading the manual and familiarizing myself with the rifle tonight and I noticed at full cock that...
Thank you. I picked up some HSM cowboy loads to get my feet wet with
Well I pulled the trigger today on a new marlin. I found it cheaper at a local gun store than anywhere else so I splurged. I am happy
I bought this for less than $30 on Amazon and I have loaded a lot of .45 colt with it without any hiccups. I've never used any other press but for...
I was afraid of that. I didn't look in my manual yet at loads but I saw some loads at Cabela's in the 300 grain range and thought I might get...
