I've... have great luck with Johnson's Paste wax. Bro.D

If... you don't want to burn up your precious 133 on fireforming you can use Benchmark. It too will get the job done. Just fill the case to the bottom of the neck and let her rip. Bro.D

With a custom FL sizing die how much should the base be sized? This is for tight neck 6ppc. I have always heard that .001 is needed to keep from having the dreaded click at the top of the bold throw. How much is too much? Thanks, Bro.D

Dan use the search function and search, "front rest". There has been some pretty good stuff on this subject in that past couple of weeks. Bro.D

Ok... I though they only made the tall rings in the 30mm size. I will give them a call! Thanks a bunch. Bro.D

danl Tell me about your scope rings. They look taller than most. Are they for a 1" scope tube? I am looking for taller rings for my Leupold 36x so I don't have to dip my head so much when I go to look through my scope. I think it will also keep my cheek off the stock when I'm trying to shoot...

Here is what I'm going to do. This is a new batch of jackets. The last batch worked perfectly with the equip. I have. And since I am somewhat new to this art/voodoo thing called bullet making I only have a few punches. On this new batch my .2104 punch is a little too loose. I feel sure this is...

Need some help on core seating. My problem is this; While core seating, things will be going along just fine, then I will have maybe four or five in a row that will not let go of the punch. I get them off by cycling the press again. So is it an issue of just not quite enough pressure...am I...

Not sure if this has ever been discussed before so let me get the ball rolling. Each month I wait patiently for my monthly NBRSA newsletter. When I see it in the mail box I know what I will be doing for the next 2o min. or so. I appreciate the match reports, advertisements, and schedule. The...

DMorgan... PM sent.

Does anyone know the dates for the BR shoots in Midland? Thanks, Bro.D

Front rest... this is one of those items that the rule is true, "Buy once, cry once." Not that you have to buy the most expensive one out there but go ahead and take the plunge and buy a quality unit. There are several that will serve you well, look at some match reports that list front rests...

Threading... For the past two years I have been using a Carmex tool holder (SER 0500 F16) MSC part # 08700023 On top I have a Carmex partial profile 16 ER A 60 BXC coated insert - MSC part # 05765631. Page 783-784 in the 2007/2008 MSC Big book. I assume you are talking external...

My experience... with Benchmak is somewhat limited but this is what I have found. Shooting a 6ppc, Panda action, Kreiger .237 4g, and Gentner 65bt at 73* - 78* and 60% - 50% humidity, 30.6 gr was for sure the upper window. I would not go any hotter than this in my rig. The powder comes to the...

sizing die I have a Carstenson FL sizing die and really like it. As has been said, send him three pieces of brass that have been fired at least three time and he will send you back what I would call a true custom die. Turn around time is very good too. As far as the seating die is concerned...

Thanks, Kenny. This is the exact type of thing I am looking for. Kenny, do you use the old or new GM TEC formula? Also, you are using the 28% ammonia, did you ever try the kitchen variety? If so, what was your opinion of it in your cleaning efforts? Thanks, Bro.D

Ok... I guess the cat is out of the bag; I am cheap. I for one do not think that Butches is all that great a deal, not if I can make something on my own that will do a comperable job at half the price. I guess that is why I make my own bullets, and do my own stock and lathe work. I know any one...

Ok, call me cheap, a self-sufficient person or just an experimenter at heart but I want to begin the process of developing my own cleaning solvent for my barrels. I read with interest a post a week or so ago with great interest about how to "roll your own." A few suggested the use of the old...
