    Beginner-9mm cartridges sticking in the barrel

    When you resized your brass did you make sure your sizing die is screwed all the way down. If you are not getting brass sized all the way that might be a problem. Quick check is to size one and dump it in your chamber and see if it goes thunk

    Skunk encounter, my preparedness ?'d

    That little dude wasn't scared of anything. I could walk out the front door and he would be maybe 10 feet away and he would just growl and stare at me

    Skunk encounter, my preparedness ?'d

    Here in southern Colorado January and February is time for skunk mating.I shot 15 last year with one coming up to the yard in the middle of the afternoon, looked like he may have been rabid. This year i've only shot one. I figure the drought probably had something to do with it Why is it they...

    Reloading Inventory

    I am just curious if anybody else has went into the reloading room, looked around and tried to figure out how much money you have invested in that little room that has consumed so many hours? I've been reloading for over 40 years and have accumulated a lot of stuff. I bought my Rock Chucker...

    How many rounds down a barrel before barrel is broke in

    So everybody that has replied says just a few rounds. My thought was that a rifle that has 700 or more rounds thru it would have a lot smoother bore and would require less effort to clean. I have a Remington 700 VS in 7-08 that has in excess of 1500 plus rounds thru it and it is a lot easier...

    How many rounds down a barrel before barrel is broke in

    Like the title says, How many rounds down a barrel before a barrel is broke in. Do you shoot several hundred rounds, with normal cleaning or do you pamper a rifle by shooting one round, cooling the barrel and only shooting a minimum number of rounds. And I am referring to a Remington 700 VS in...

    My first try at powder coating cast boolits

    [/ATTACH] Here is a few of my projects. I think powder coated bullets are the cheapest way to go. I got tired of over paying for 30 caliber copper bullets, so I just make my own. Powder coated bullets do have limitations but for just practice and ALMOST copper bullet velocity they work.

    LP Magnum Primers

    If it were me, I'd buy as many as I could afford. Then I would reduce my powder charge by 10% to accommodate for magnum primer.

    Hardness for lead cast rifle bullets (with gas check).

    At 16 BHN with a gas check hard enough? Yes if you water drop the bullet that will increase your hardness substantially. I use 3% Tin, 3.75% Antimony, .3 % Copper and the rest lead. I water drop resize and add gas check. Use this in 308 and 22 caliber with no leading

    New stock for mauser

    Boyd stocks I've got two and in my opinion you can't beat them. When I first bought them the cost $117.00 delivered. I figured I'd have to bed the action, but I shot the rifles and the shoot great.

    Lead projectiles?

    Win 748 and IMR 4895 work real well for me behind a 180 gr bullet
