    Trying out Lee real 360gr cast lead bullets for the first time

    Maybe not precise, but it will certainly tell you if you're on the right track. Branden

    Trying out Lee real 360gr cast lead bullets for the first time

    I did a quick google search and pretty sure I found the recipe, thank you for that. I didn't notice any stability issues largely because I was shooting a steel plate rather than paper. I can shoot paper, I just largely figure I wasn't having issues because it grouped quite well. my groove...

    Once they started introducing a lot more running, and ridiculous scenarios for stages, I lost interest. Couple that with the politics of it, gaming of stages, and the sucking out of the fun factor, I was done. When they started with the wobbly platforms, and shooting weak side with the rifle...

    Trying out Lee real 360gr cast lead bullets for the first time

    Those look really good. Mine aren't perfect, but i'm just learning to cast, so i'm giving myself some time to improve. I have a mold for my .44 cap and ball that I just got a notification has shipped. I'll order some beeswax tomorrow to use as lube moving forward with my testing. My eyes...

    Trying out Lee real 360gr cast lead bullets for the first time

    I guess I can't edit my post to correct it to 320 instead of 360. If i'm just not seeing how to do so, someone let me know please. Branden

    Trying out Lee real 360gr cast lead bullets for the first time

    You're correct, i've been saying 360gr all this time and it's actually 320gr, I need to make a few corrections. The lube I used was in a tube, and it's call CVA Grease Patch. Says on the back it can be used to lube Minie and Maxi balls, I used it in a pinch until I get some better lube...

    My father that raised me (i'm adopted, and i'm close with my biological parents for the last 6 years) grew up in Columbia. I used to spend quite a bit of time visiting my Grandmother there as a kid. My Grandfather was a professor of political science at Stephens University. Branden

    I've been a precision rifle shooter competitively for quite some time, and it's just gotten boring to me, so i'm stepping backwards in time and getting more and more into muzzleloaders, and blackpowder cartridge rifles, along with casting my own projectiles. Been reading a lot on here and...

    Trying out Lee real 360gr cast lead bullets for the first time

    I've recently rekindled an old love of muzzle loading. I acquired a cva 50 hawken rifle from a local gentlemen for $200 and went to work shooting it, usually with roundballs. I live in the country and a trip to the range is just a few steps outside of my shop door, which is nice cause I can...

    Shipping Guns

    I'm an FFL and just learned something new. I didn't know USPS changed their policy on handguns being un-mailable, now I know. I won't confirm that I may have violated their policy a few times this year. I ship via Fedex mostly, and although I have a good relationship with the clerks, they do...
