Good luck next weekend!!
Yes. I’m using Precision Spherical Buffer. Just like the tri-ball loads. The wad petals are about 0.007” thinner on the BPI wads vs the precision reloading wads. I didn’t...

Well I’m not sure what contributed more to wad failure?
I used a BPI multi metal wad cut down instead of the Precision Reloading wad. Secondly the stack was too short so I tried a flex...

Don’t the lead free primers use larger than standard flash holes too?

I’ve had issues with two different Marlin rifles with peep sights. Probably ’80s vintage. The tube around the front sight looked twisted on a 30-30. I thought the gunsmith bent it during...

Well, I did it! Thank you all for the helpful tips!!!
I started at kindergarten level though. Lee Mold was running great! One of those sessions that you hate to stop because it’s working...
I have been looking at the website already. I’m concerned about their pricing. Possibly the decimal point needs to move one place to the right? $3.50 doesn’t seem like correct pricing for 100 wads.
I found some 1-1/2 ounce lead shot loads in the BPI Advantages manual, 6th edition, using the MM1275 wads which look similar to the TUPRW12 wads with Blue Dot and Longshot that could be used as a...

Tuprw12 wad with three 0.600” balls inside.
Looking like either the three inch for the tri-ball load or the 2-3/4” wad will need to be trimmed up using two balls in a 2-3/4” load
I’m intentionally reviving this thread...
A thought I had while reading this thread is mismatched ball sizes for the tuprw12 wads. Use a .575-.600” on the bottom and a slightly larger upper ball,...
I’ve been pondering a double .600 ball load. The tri-ball is impressive! Maybe even excessive. Single .600 ball is nice. 44 mag carbine territory. I’d like some tips for your double ball recipe if...

Look carefully at the bullet shape of the bullet of the Federal 22 Punch defensive ammunition.
I’d wager they put some research into it.

Speaking of rules, there’s no discussion on s&s threads. Maybe you can give yourself some admonishment for dirtying up his listing.
I’m still debating 454 brass in 45/410 chambers and then small primers could be used too.
Thought about notching the rims or something to distinguish it as my ammo. I don’t own a 454 so I’ll not...

I did a baseline accuracy test today. 5 shot group at 40 yards. Roughly 3” when compared to the empty hull. No special effort was put into assembly. Used a 27 MEC bushing with TiteWad...
They have every type of 209 primer in stock and cheap too. Even let me put an $800 Colt 1911 in the cart...
Seems too good to be true. I’ll wait until someone else says they have successfully...
Some of y’all obviously haven’t tried to buy powder in this decade.
The most recent listing for 700X is in Nebraska on swapping and selling FTF sale 773 miles away. (I considered it)

My ignorant self guesses they are an invasive species. Let me know if I’m wrong.
Thanks. Not sure what rock you’re living under, but yeah, I’d take a bunker full of Green Dot if I could find it!
