  1. The most obvious thing to do would be to buy a 30-06 rifle!
  2. If everyone likes turkey so well,why don't we eat it every week? I ate mine last week.I couldn't stand the anticipation
  3. When I got my 625-2,I looked on the net for mooners/de-mooners.The guy I got the S&W off of gave me de-mooner he made: I saw a moon clip loader on Gunbroker and told myself I could build one of them.Fast forward to Sunday morning.It's 6:00AM and my shooting buddy is due to arrive @ 7:15 and I hadn't loaded any clips for the 625 yet! So I went out to the woodshop and piced up some scrap I'd been tripping over for a coons age and cobbled this together. I figgured I'd build a pretty one when I got round 'tuit,never did A friend on CB had some 45AR brass he didn't need anymore,so I assembled these with H&G#78's
  4. Wayne,I would try sizing bigger and using a slower powders before I tried heat treating boolits for a 45ACP.I size mine @.4525 and,if I'm pushing them,I'd use Unique or slower powder. Mark
  5. An old plumbers pot I got from my casting mentor.I'll take a pic soon.It needs newer fittings to be re-filled.Gotta see who is up on the conversion. Mark
  6. I've sent more Rugers back to the factory than any other make.Either I am unlucky or don't own many other brands I've sent used guns back to Ruger that have been re-barelled and blued without being charged for any work. Sending a brand new gun back to have the cylinder worked on would make me mad though.Seems like QC is lacking nowdays. Mark
  7. I use a bottom pour Lyman Mag20 mostly.I have a smaller ladle lyman pot and a big propane fired smelting pot.Each one has its specific uses. Mark
  8. Wayne, The process is called Leementing . A couple helpful links: This is a Lee 6 cavity mould Sure-Fire Lee-Menting Technique Mark
  9. Large and small rifle are available at Shooters Place in Fallston,pa.No pistol primers there,that I remember.I see Dawson Enterprises in Massillon, OH has a waiting list for all primers except shotgun. Mark
  10. Only 9mm LEE mould I have is a CastBoolits group buy 380-100TC.It drops @ .358 and about 102gr from my alloy.LEE moulds work better than a lot of people think.Lee-menting is an option if you're handy with drilling and tapping stuff,Make the mould last longer. Mark
