Do you live in Collage Grove or Cottage Grove? I have a few cast .358 that I will donate if you are in Collage Grove for a FTF.

This is very well enough to keep me busy.

Take a flashlight & look inside of a fired case. If you see one big hole in the center then it is boxer primed & can be realoaded, but I bet you will find two small holes that are off center that is berdan primed.
You can buy a tool to remove the primer from a berdan primed case.

They really like the out of state customers trying to buy liscense!!
Call & check prices before you make the trip.

OK working on getting me a S&W model 58 chambered in 41 Mag.
Going to be on a lookout for a mold for it. Keep me in mind!!

I have been hearing of some Mosin's with bore sizes on out to .314 to .315. as Westwindmike.
He was saying his cast boolits in his Mosin were comming apart & hitting the target like a shotgun. -
Best way is to slug your barrel, then measure the largest diameter & add .002 to it for the size of mold that you need .
Weight & style of boolit is up to you.
I need to get started on the old Mosin pack for myself,but I don't know witch one of the 4 to start with!

The "small" problem I have with starting a youngen with a single shot is they tend to get bored with it.
With the bolt or lever guns they still have to do something else between each shot, which gives ths coach time to get their attention if they are doing wrong.
-
I also have some boolits that anothe guy gave me to try in the 45-70 & I tried them in the NEF that I'm trying to sell.
They weigh almost 550gr & will kill your shouder with Trapdoor preasures.
I shot 3 of them at my "boxes" of shreaded tire rubber, but I only used 2 boxes (about 2ft) with 1/8 plate of steel in the back.
It acually put a hole about 1" in the steel & lodged into a tree stump behind the boxes & I couldn't find the boolit.
You get 550gr moving & it will not stop!!

I'm a big fan of the lever action or bolt actions to start the youngsters with. With a little bit of looking you can find an older .22Lr bolt gun very worth the $$. Usually the older ones have better Iron sights. Another "opinion" I have it they need to learn marksmanship with iron sights.
You say you have a 10-22. I tried a 10-22 with my boy & got the playstation trigger in a short while. He never shot it as what I would call unsafe but it was the last he shot that gun for a while. His next gun for the range was a bolt .22 with iron sights.

My "thing" for now is loading for the Marlin1895GBL 45-70 guide gun I just got. I have a couple loads to try as soon as I get a good chance.
Trying a lyman 457122 HP that weigh 340gr that I got from a guy on another forum to try out.
Putting that in front of 50gr realoader 7.
Also got a Lee 90374 405gr flat nose that I cast.
I put it in front of 50gr of Varget.
I'm not a big fan on how this boolit looks. The lube grooves are very shallow & narrow.
Hopefully it won't lead the barrel up.
I still need to load each of the bullets with the oppisite powder.
I really like the Lyman boolit. I shot it into 3ft of sheraded tire rubber in carboard boxes with 1/8 sheet of steel in the back of the last box "for good measure" & it traveled about 2 1/2 ft into the rubber & averaged out of 5 shots 180gr when recovered.
If you see a deal on the Lyman 457122 HP mold I want one.
Caster you talkin about swaping bullets I have a Lyman 356242 that drops 126gr, & a 452374 that drops 218gr if you wanna try them.
Both of those weights are lubed & sized.
Also have a 311413 that I don't cast much with & never loaded.

Always be careful loading & unloading your gun too.
My best freind had an accident during the juvinile hunt.
As he was unloading a 30-06 it went off & hit his son below the left knee.
Not pointing blame he was pointing it is a safe direction & his son walked in the path as he was unloading.
I don't want to hear all the bashing about how bad either followed the rules. They both know & are paying for it.
Vanderbilt had to take off his leg just above the left knee.
I just want to put the reminder out there. It can happen any time!

Why tone them down? The recoil is not as bad as you would think.
Right now the load I'm shooting is home cast 330gr hollow point boolits with 50gr Realoader7 behind it.

Remington 700 in Rem. 7mm Mag or the Marlin 1895 guide gun 45-70 Gov. with iron sights for the brush. What else do ya need?
I would like to use the M38 or M44 one or two days though.

Chris Johnson? Who Dat?? Sorry a$$ sell out that don't deserve to wear a jersey of any color!
Sorry just had to say that!

Did you acually over tighten the screw & break it off or did you drop the mold with the sprue plate out & break it off?
The reason I ask is it may make a slight difference in getting the screw out.
Then a new screw from Lee & your off to the races again.
Don't forget to blacken that mold with smoke from a stick match. Try to keep it in the cavities only. It will make the bullets drop better.
-
Can you extract the screw?
-
I have acually thought about that quite a bit & I would like to know that I could keep a straight enough mind to go in & get one thing. I kina dout that I could do it. Most of my prizzed peices are setting right together. I could acually grab a couple.
My old 12 string is setting beside my gun cabinet that has a glass front on it. Inside tha cabinet is the rem.700 7mm Mag that was my brothers favorite. I would make sure to get it with one hand. I think my guitar would fit nicely in the other hand.
On second thought they are all beside a window!

Well it's good to hear form ya again! Hope all has been well.
