Just needs 4 more receivers to make it a complete set

I keep a range of 7 to 8 types of powder, as I shoot for accuracy. Looking at what I reload for, IMR4064 would be a very versatile powder for me in all of my rifles, from 22-250 upto 45-70. Unique is another powder I would not be without. It works for pistol, rifle, cast and jacket alike. If I were ...

A 2700lb matchking =18,900,000 grains. Based on sierra prices they would cost about $30,000 a piece. Give or take a couple of bucks.

I tried to buy black powder in bulk a few years back. The most the gunshop was allowed to sell was 1 pound to a person per day, and I think the regs here are a max of 5 pounds per person in posession. Stoopid laws here. (california).

Blimey, you can get a real one for that price, or a 92 browning in 357 or 44,

It seems I have developed a sensitivity to powder or/and the smoke from a fired round. This started about 6 years ago. I had an outbreak of shingles that started on my back, which cleared up with no reoccurence. Two weeks later I had an outbreak in my eye which took almost 3 months to clear up. Seem...

Hobie,
I think that 2f should work for both. Here is their site.http://www.goexpowder.com/product-blackpowder.html

25acp, 380, 9mm, and wssm in anything.

flatnose

405grn Remington bullet+wlrp+34.5grn of IMR4198. 1886TD 2000 issue winchester/Miroku.
Same loads works equally well for lead bullets of same weight. Although low-moderate velocity, very accurate for me, and comfortable to shoot.

A .22 behind the ear.

flatnose

Thanks guys. I think I will sell the lead on e-bay, then just go buy the bullets I need. I have about 300lbs of wheelweights here, and thought I would put them to some use. I can buy 1000 405grn bullets for $160, which shoot fine in my rifle. I was trying to weigh out the economics before getting in...

flatnose

I dont know who casts their own bullets here, but how many bullets per hour for a 45-70 lee double cavity mold, would be a reasonable rate of casting?

flatnose

p.s Just use the JASC, or is it JASCO? from home depot. Its in the gold tin. Dont bother with the other strippers, as I have tried them all, and they are pretty lame.

flatnose

Sorry completely missed your question. The finish on the wood is most likely urethane. If you want to remove it completely a paint stripper will work. Strippers can be had other than water soluble. Coat the wood with the stripper liberally, and wrap it in a plastic bag. This helps the action of the ...

flatnose

Remove the wood from the rifle, and sand down existing finish with 600grit wet/dy paper. Take the wood to a car body/paint shop, and have them spray it with a 2 pack urethane clearcoat, but first add some flatting agent to the clear.

It is doing nothing. It is in a power saving mode. Its on standby, if you want to call it that. The reason for using it, is to cut down on wear and tear and prolong the life of the system and components. Shutting down and starting up a computer generates more wear and tear than putting it into a low...

Take one of your fired cases without resizing, and smoke the case using a candle. Insert it into the chamber as far as it will go. Push the case out from the muzzle end wih a rod. Look carefully for any removal of the smoke. Do this several times. This will tell you where the case is binding in the ...

Bigsky, Thanks. I do not have that particular powder, but have tried the slightly slower win748 with fair results. I have many pounds of aa2200, which is just a tad faster than the IMR4895. If I can work out a load for that, I may see an interesting result. Do you have the browning version or the wi...

flatnose

Guys, 71fan is correct. I was trying to remember who sent me the original info, and it was indeed SkyC. Credit goes to him for all of his hard work he put into this. I have my own additional load information here somewhere if I can find it. All my data is for the 348 hornady 200grn bullet. I still h...

bcboy,
I have sent you a copy as well. Should have it by now.

flatnose

Ricky,
I have sent the file to you. Please let me know if it works ok, or if you have any problems opening it.
All the best.

flatnose

OK,
I found it. It is on a microsoft excel spreadsheet. I dont know how to post that here, and it would probably take up a bit of room to do so.
I will check to se if you have an e-mail which I can send it to.

flatnose

bcboy,
I have the spredsheet you are looking for. My old puters harddrive crashed, but I think I have it on a CD. It will take me a while to find it. I will stick it up on the board when I do.
P.S this is not my own spreadsheet, but it was kindly sent to me by one of the board members here.

flatnose

So, Mr Mcnutty, how did your results compare to your previous session?

flatnose

http://www.mausershooters.org/k98k/SC_data.html Although I shoot the 8mm, I dont reload for it, as I bought a ton of it years ago for 7c per round. Half a ton actually. You may want to veryfy the load with other sources before using. Good luck. p.s with that weight bullet I think you will need a slo...

flatnose

tribex, Measure the inside diameter of the case neck first. Even new brass will have some memory, and it will try and return to its last diameter. I would hedge a bet that the case neck is around 3 thou smaller than the bullet diameter. Some cartridges like more tension, some like less. It is possib...

I have seen those things in Tijuana, but I dont think they allow you to shoot them.

flatnose

tribex, hello and welcome. Someone here recently had the same situation as you. If the brass crimp is staying within the cannelure of the bullet, then you should not worry. The cannelure is in the bullet for that very reason. I just use the standard die set for the 348, with a light crimp. Nothing f...

been2c,
There may be more than one reason for their claimed shortages.

flatnose

Jupiterjoe,
Take 20 rounds of each type of ammo, and shoot 8 five shot groups alternating ammo type for each group. Wait 15 mins between each group.
That should answer all of your questions.

flatnose

Old Time Hunter, You dont have a problem. The crimp and cannelure are both doing their job. If you want to get the best possible crimp, anneal the casemouth, and add a standard crimp. If your brass has become work hardened, a harder crimp can actually cause less grip on the bullet. This is because t...

flatnose

P.S,
I now have a camera, so I will post pics of the setup under another topic heading.

flatnose

You could rebarrel and chamber a big bore receiver to many cartridges based on the 308 winchester. Maybe a 243, 260, 7mm etc etc, but the limiting factor would be cartridge overall length, and suitability of bullets for any of these calibers. I have built a 22-250rimmed based on the 307 case. This i...

flatnose

Ask the gunsmith if he can set the barrel back and rechamber it. You might only lose a quarter of an inch in barrel length if you are lucky. The forend hanger screw holes will have to be relocated as well.

Rubber target stamp and an ink pad. Use old computer paper or masking paper. Cheapest way is to aim at the staples if using a scope.

OK. just did a quick bit of research. TSX= solid copper. There lies the problem.......maybe. Copper is less dense than lead. Therefore the copper bullet will have to be longer than the lead/jacket bullet of the same weight. Hence the higher claimed BC. of the TSX bullet. ( at what velocity this BC i...

flatnose

I cant say anthing for the TSX, but in theory BLC-2 has a very similar burn rate to that of W748. Winchester reloading info states 44grns of W748 powder as max load for a 150grn bullet. Out of my rifle I get 2525fps with that load, and very good accuracy. The bullet is seated out almost all the way ...

flatnose

I use the outers foul out to clean out the lead, and would never be without it. It also works well on copper. If you have copper fouling, plain old hoppes 9 works well. Dont work too hard at trying to clean the bore, just keep swabing the bore and let it sit for 3 or four hours. Run a patch through ...

I had the same problem with my 1886 of the same year of manufacture. I was using winchester large primers. I just carried on shooting it. After about 60 rounds the problem went away, and has not occured since. Many others have had the same problems. I think the problem in my case, may have been thic...
