    BFR 500 S&W Mag

    Recently procured one of these with a 7 1/2" barrel, so it is listed. Started with a box of factory loads, then moved to my own recipe. I have worked up to what seems about my limit with the Lee 440 grain cast bullet. It is a gas checked bullet and I am running it at around 1625 fps. It is...

    CNC

    Hopefully you guys can set a confused fellow on the right path: explain something to me. . . I was reading on another forum and guys were going back and forth about CNC bullets versus more "modern" monolithic bullets. Anyway I thought that CNC was just a machining or lathing process?

    Dillon with a transfer bar and SS frame

    :what: Got my new Ruger .45 Vaquero on Monday and it's a beaut'. The title was a joke but it's from '96, unfired, 7 1/2" barrel, ss, and box and paperwork. Probably paid too much but. . . Every time I pick it up I hear Chester hobbling along and yelling in the background
