Thanks. It hits as hard on both ends!

I guess I don’t understand 351.

I use a locally made breakfast sausage and make milk gravy. Don’t forget the biscuits!

On the way…..THANK YOU SIR.

Thanks Froggie.
I’ve read and read and read about the 32-20 here, every aspect. Reloading had some challenges, but I only crumpled one of the first five test rounds loaded! I learned You gotta go...

Got it too! I blocked the email, which was not directly from Muzzle-Loaders.com.

I use hardball with SOWW’s. Basically, 5.25lbs hardball to 7# SOWW’s. Give me 11.3 BHN and shows some expansion in soft berm. I get good fillout in the molds.

Yessir 5 shots. Resting on a cardboard box, lol

Dodging rain showers, got to finally shoot my test loads for the S&W 1905 3rd change 4”. These were powder coated with Smoke’s Flame Red and the bullet was from Accurates clone of the original...

@lpel Thank you sir. I’m kinda fond of them. Hope they shoot well.

When I began this rabbit hole, I dove into learning about alloys, mixes, calculations, etc. I arrived at a mix whereby I could use SOWW’s, which were plentiful at a local shop, and Hardball from...

Flame Red from Smoke. First time using this color, but for a wheel gun, hey, gotta have it!

Another WSF; 9mm and 45ACP

It dropped at .315. It was designed for .314. I will size after PC to .314. Have not sized, nor PC, nor loaded as of yet. Ranch work this weekend, so hopefully next weekend I’ll load some up.

@green frog

COAL 1.555”
Powder - 231
3.1gr - 3.4 gr.

Will try and keep it low pressure for the old S&W 1905. Mainly a ranch pistol; snakes, varmints, etc.

Finally got my new mold out and casting.

Accurate Molds 31-117A - It’s Tom’s clone of the 311316 Lyman whereas I had him eliminate the lube rings as I will powder coat them. This mold dropped...

For my new model Win Sporter - 38-55.
An easy mold to cast with and makes great boolits. I powdercoat them and it is equally deadly on paper as well as HOGS. I cast about a BHN 11.3.
...

I only size after powder coating. I let the boolits cool to around 90 degrees, then size them.

38–55 at 100 yard ZERO with Williams FP sights.

1.6” at the highest point between 0 and 100. Anything I shoot ‘center mass’ out to 100 yards ain’t gonna know the difference. This rifle is...

I’m not expert, but I read a bit about lube/no lube rings on a cast bullet before I placed an order. We had several conversations along the way.

I have PC’d 9mm, 10mm, 38-55 with no issues and...

I have recently had Accurate make me a 32-20 mold with the standard Lyman 311316 tip and straight walls for powder coating. I’ll shoot it in a S&W 1905 4”. Haven’t used it yet.

Start a new history for yourself……..Who knows, maybe the Henry will become another 39a someday, and you’ll already have one! Me, I’ll keep the Golden 39A.
