    Sizing Die for 58 cal (577)

    I shot a couple of dozen of the sized bullets today. My group at 50 yds had shrunk from 5.5 inches to 2.5 inches. The sizing die seems to be working very well. I also did not have to run a brush down the bore every tenth shot (I did anyway for accuracy sake). I did not know of other...

    Pyrodex RS

    I would just like to update my progress on solving the size of the powder spouts. I went down to the big box and bought a Thomson Center Contender clear view powder measure that would measure between 5 and 120 grains. I filled the clear view measure with Pyrodex RS from the three spouts...
