I'd like to add a new laminated stock to my 700 BDL SA. I've decided it will be the grey "pepper" colored one. I just can't decide between a Boyd's JRS sporter style or the Boyd's Ross thumb hole style. I do only varmit shooting with this rifle. I've never shot a thumb hole stock so I need some...

I was visiting a club members house and he invited me down cellar to check out his reloading setups. Sitting there on the end of his bench was a huge, once fired, brass artillery shell. It had to be 6" in diameter and almost 2' tall. I asked where he got it and he said his Dad had it kicking...

Ok. first things first. I've been a metalic cartridge reloader for 20+ years. So I do know a little about the process. Just today I took the plunge and ordered a MEC shotshell loader to feed my trapshooting addiction. I am a fan of Hogdon powder so I went to their website and printed some...

In the world of shotshell reloading, how could/do I figure out how many ounces are in 1 dram of powder. Or does anyone know the answer to how many ounces or grains is equal to 3 drams of powder? Thanks E.

I had the idea to load as many 10 round sets of 38 special as I could make up using the powders in my cabinet. Criteria was to keep all loads as close in fps as possible to each other at or near the 950 fps range. My powders included Bullseye, Unique, Universal, AA5, 231 & WSF. I used all...

Since Hornady decided to stop making the 70 gr SXSP and my supply is about exhausted, I need to work on finding a new bullet for my load. I was loading the 70 gr SXSP into Winchester cases over a Winchester primer and 43 grs of IMR 4350. This is/was a very accurate load for my Remington 700BDL...

:confused: I'm about to load up some jacketed rounds for a lever action in 44 Mag. I see Hornady has two 44 cal bullets listed. Rifle #4300 265gr FP and handgun #44200 240gr XTP. I have the Handgun bullets on my shelf. Will they work?

I'm looking to buy a set of 44 Mag carbide/titanium dies. I currently have RCBS dies in other calibers. In my efforts to get the 44 dies I've seen a lot of "other" make dies for sale on ebay and in adds for much less than the RCBS sell for. Is there really a good, better, best thing with...

Has anyone used cast bullets from Moyer's? I was looking for some 240gr RNFP's on the net and found their website. Looks like they have nice product. Thanks.

I own a new Cimmaron 1892 replica in 44 mag. I read on another site this past weekend that any replica arms should only be fired with the same "power" loads as the original production arms were intended for. I took this to mean that I should not try to run any loads hotter than 1000fps (lead)...

While I'm waiting on my Cimmaron 1892 to arrive. I've been searching the site for 44 mag load recipe's. Most loads I've read up on are for revolvers with short barrels. First question is... If I use one of those loads in my rifle (24" barrel) will that create more fps to the point I might...

I'm looking for some info on 243 Winchester loads worked up using IMR 4350 powder. It's main purpose would be light 60 to 75 gr varmit bullets. This powder does not seem to be too popular for this caliber in most books. I have a few pounds of it and would like to make use of it. Thanks E.
