    45-70 reloads

    NICK; Just for kicks, if you come across 45 long colt cast bullets(.451 t0 454) weighing around 245 to 265, try to paperpatch a few,use unique or trailboss, see how they work. Fast and minimumn recoil! I simply did one diagonal wrap of masking tape even with the upper groove, twisted the...

    405 Winchester Hey Swede, Read you on many threads ans thought you were interesting. I never shot that 405, heard it was a real thumper and was wondering if it could be downloaded to maybe 40-65 recoil levels? That crecent butplate on the 1885 Browning does bite especially B/R shooting...

    "Reloading" virgin steel cases

    The Wolf high performance 223's are boxer primed and have nice beveled primer pockets. These are the steel cases that have a satin grey/metal color with no varnish or lacquer. Since I have a sufficiant supply of brass, these are good in a pinch I have not had any problems loading these steel...
