Dale, I have a 300 BO with an Integral Can and I'm planning on picking up the 247gr NOE Mould with a plain base. It should be fine if the bullet is sized for the barrel and your using the correct...

A few tips here:
For tumbling media, you can pick up 50# sacks of Walnut fairly cheap at a Welders Supply (used for sand blasting)
If you have a laptop and an external web cam, you can place...

Thanks, I've seen several other links that point there as well. I signed up yesterday, but I cannot search the forum (it tells me that my status in pending approval, whatever that means). Just...

Looking for some blue dot CB loads for 160gr .308 (7.62x51 Military cases). I've also seen lots of references to Blue Dot in .30-06, has anyone tried Blued Dot in .25-06 (jacketed)?
Also...

Ok, I'm pretty new to this and I'm getting a bit frustrated. I cast some .44 mag bullets and was using my Star sizer with a .431 die and it was sizing fine (sized a few hundred). Javelina was just...
I've had Lee mold handles and ladle handles slip off. I've been lazy but thought about using some JB weld inside (for good measure) and just drlling and pinning the handles (peening the ends of the...

I was just casting outside today, until it started to snow then I moved the operation into the Garage. No problem keeping the pot warm. I'm using a Turkey Fryer and a dutch oven. Once the pot...

Great, thanks for the suggestions. I've got about 1,000 lbs of crap range lead that oxidizing so I'm melting it down quick to salvage it (still some chunks of crud in it) and plan on melting it down...

Thanks, it's in the scrap pile. Hoping I could salvage it, oh well.

OK, the other day I stopped by a local Thrift Store and picked up an Aluminum Fry pan (about a quarter inch thick) with a lid. I have about 1,000 lbs of Range Lead that I'm melting down and wanted...

Does Walmart still sell it? I was at a Super Wallmart a few days ago and didn't see any. I did however find an abrasives shop awhile back and get 50lb sacks of Walnut 12/20 for $17. I'm pretty...

Quasi,

Damn Rooster. Great Suggestion! Simple Solution! Lots of great minds here! Thanks!

Lots of great advice here! Once the Turkey Fryer from Agri Supply arrives, I'm sure I'm going to be in much better shape. Thanks Goatlips for the advice, great website.

Lots of great advise here. I'm going to pick up a Turkey Fryer and If I get tired of it, I'll see if I can find a recycler that's willing to trade. I like the idea of a challange, but not too...

That's a thought. I do need to pick up one of those or dig around the house to see if I can improvise something. The problem is that the old busted up jackets are just a a small amount of the crud....

OK, Dumb NuB Question. I was given about 15 buckets of range lead. These buckets have been sitting outside for a few years, some covered, some not so well covered. Lots of crud in it (backstop...

I'm wondering about the history of this guy. Serial # is just under 1,000. When were these made, price? etc. Any experience with them pro's & cons?
Thanks again. You guys are great!

It cleaned up great! I'd probably leave it as-is and oiled. A little bit of dirt on it will make it look more seasoned.

That's a great resource. Looks like I'm going to be spending some time there so I'm not bugging you guys so much with my questions!
