I have been using a FA-RT tumbler since they first came out. The base on my first one died last year. Unfortunately they dont sell a replacement so I had to order a whole new kit. I have 2 drums now so I use one without pins using Dawn to clean brass for resizing/decapping then use the second...

Here are some pics of my bench

Really? You have never had to trim .30 carbine brass? You must have one shot out carbine barrel then! lol I have seen carbine brass grow 8-10 1/1000's on a resizing.The straight tapered wall of the carbine brass stretches more then almost any other type of brass I have ever seen. Seeing as how...

Right now I am making extra turrets for the Hollywood Sr press I will probably also make some if anyone wants one for the Hollywood Universal turrets and maybe the super turret.I have been toying with the idea of making the complete senior turret press.

Don it is a great press I love mine. I have been toying with the idea of making the entire press but it wouldn't be cheap and I don't know if I could make it as refined with all the rounded edges that the original has through straight machining of CR steel and I dont think it would be cost...

I have 2 of those powder measures they are great

Yours will be on its way shortly Reinz. Lauderdale I have been so busy getting the tooling and working on the turrets that I haven't been to the range at all this summer dont have anything to load :(

Hollywood SR Turret press owners!! UPDATE 7/12 OK Fred and Lube I have an update on the Hollywood SR Turret project. I found a great deal on a mill this week and will be getting it sometime in the next week or so. This means I will be doing all machining and not just drilling and tapping the...

OK Dave I will contact you when we are ready to place the order.I am not making any money on these the cost to me from the fabricator is $155 and I have to drill them out from a 1/8" pilot hole to a 13/16" hole and then tap all 8 holes plus 3 handle holes and the index holes which I have to get...

As a former plumber I can tell you that dumping the water down the drain is the best solution if you have city water and sewage the amount of lead you are disposing is much less then all the 30+ year old homes in your area that have lead solder in their systems contaminating the waste water.I...

How about making it so it will work with straight wall cases? Useless to me if it wont do both

Ok thanks I will try the lemishine and armor all

Ok so I have a FA RT that I really love my first batch on 750 .40 S&W cases done with the provided brass cleaner still look like brand new. I have since done 600 .30 carbine cases using lemishine and dawn both methods also using SS pins. I have noticed that the .40 cases still look new and...

I just bought a FA RT about 2 months ago I sold my Lyman 1200 VT last week will never go back to a vibrator.No matter how long you run it you will never get brass looking as good in a vibrator then a rotary w/ SS pins.I run my brass through the FA for 5 hours and it looks absolutely new (not...

Here is my bench

LOL if you were close by I would say come on over I think it is well broken in by now though lol

it works great the stroke is very smooth and the turret rotation is smooth and has a solid positive indexing.I have been loading some .30 carbine with it. I had these cases prepped and primed before belling case adding powder seating bullet and then LFCD much better then doing each step...

Here are pics of my Hollywood Sr Turret set up for .30 Carbine. I bought 3 press top bushings from CH Tool and Die to go from the 1 1/2-12 thread to 7/8-14. I also used the two shot shell resizing dies that came with the press removed the decapper/expander and screwed my powder measures in...
