After passing the Cabelas in north Fort Worth for about a year and a half without stopping, I pulled in today to kill a little time. The powder is behind the gun counter now, and if what they had showing is all they have, there is not much available. There was a sign where it used to be...

I may be the only one in the world that did it that way, but I have been setting the bullet on top of the case, after I check the powder at the 3 1/2 station. Today, I started setting the bullet on the case and guiding it into the die while it is on the upstroke at the fourth station, just like...

Sunday I somehow crunched a case and broke the decaping pin in my Lee 38 Super sizing die. E-mailed them asking how to get a replacement. Early Monday morning I had an e-mail from them stating that I should take a photo of the broken pin and e-mail it to them. I did, and received a...

Been considering going from a Lee Classic Turret to a Hornady LnL. I would appreciate comments from people who have actually made this transition. First let me say that I am pretty hesitant about this. I really like my LCT and have supreme confidence in it , using the Pro Auto Disk and Safety...

After putting it off for awhile, I finally ordered 3K of IDP #6 bullets right after lunch. The web site said they were behind and to allow 3 weeks for delivery. I placed my order and almost immediately I received a confirming e-mail at 12:09. Checked my e-mail a few minutes ago and had an...

Saw this mentioned on another forum a while back and was interested. Finally showed up at Midway so I ordered the one for 9mm/38 and it arrived yesterday. Interesting packaging. (left photo) It was shipped in this. (second photo) I am going to use it on my Lee Classic Turret. In order to do...

Saw this mentioned in a book the other day. Does anyone know what kind of gun ownership is allowed in Mexico? With all the shootings there and on the border it looks like the media and the libs would be screaming for stricter gun control there. But maybe they already have it. Any knowledge...

We are in the process of moving from the country to the city. Hopefully I will be able to find a place to shoot in the Fort Worth area. With that in mind I have been on the lookout for something to use as a reloading bench in the limited area I will have here. I decided on an area behind the...

I was at an estate sale this afternoon and passed on a deal for a Winchester Model 37, 410 bore and a Stevens Crackshot 22LR for $250. Interesting looking guns, but I don't really have a place to keep long guns right now and I am not familiar with prices for those. There were also several Ted...

As a background, I started reloading in the late 60's, but almost entirely for rifles. When I wanted to work up a load I reviewed several manuals, found a specific bullet, tried powders specified for that bullet and went from there. I did not shoot or reload very much from the early 70's until...

Found this at a estate sale a couple of weeks ago and thought it was interesting. Lead ore. About 4"x4"x3". Very heavy.

I went out to work up some 357 loads about an hour ago on my Lee Classic Turret with a Pro Auto Disk powder measure. I got set up and everytime I dropped a powder charge powder dribbled out onto the shellholder area and the press base. Looking things over I noticed that at the full down stroke...

For more than 40 years, off and on, I have been handloading. Mostly Unique and slow extruded rifle powder. I had a Oahus Duo-Measure and had a pretty good technique. I would bump it, slam the lever down, put it on my scales and use a trickler to bring the charge up to the correct weight...

Have several new things going and hit a bump. 1. Recently got a new Colt Rail Gun. Have put 300 rounds of commercial white box type 230 ball thru it. I wanted to try some reloads. 2. Over the past couple of months I have accumulated a Lee Classic Turret and all the accutriments. I used these...

Has anyone used this devise? Little Arthur in my hands now. I have a couple of $5 ones for my .22's that work great but this one is considerably more expensive. Would appreciate any comments.

My wife and I usually spend Fridays going to estate sales. Very seldom any gun stuff, but one time I bought 16 reloaded 458 Win Mags, part in 375 H&H cases and part in 458 WM cases, all with 500 gr soft points. Cost 20 cents. Today as we were leaving a sale I was standing by the checkout...

Just registered in this forum yesterday, after I found a reference to the above thread in another forum. Since the referenced thread is about a year old since last post it wouldn't let me post in that one. I bought a Lee Classic Turret in December, and ever since it arrived I have been trying...
