1873Winchester

Worse, the lead in batteries in combination with the other chemicals in them will leave residues on the lead that can form very dangerous compounds like arsine and stibine. I would definitely steer a wide clear path around car batteries.

Been watching these .44mag videos all over again recently as a kind of substitute for shooting them myself. Sold my old Lee equipment a month or so ago and I was expecting my new progressive dillon 650 setup soon after. But delays after delays and now I am here with spring knocking on the door an...

Speaking of the '73, did you know Uberti has released an 1873 carbine in .44 magnum? All they did was stronger heat treating. Been out a year or so I think but I haven't seen anything of it, maybe nobody dares buy one ;)

Well hey in Scotland or the UK you should still be able to get a bolt action or lever action or other manual repeater, or a shotgun. I know several brits with them.

Well I think it was a bit over a year since I saw this video the first time, but its what got me set on moving from a Lee to a Dillon. Awaiting my new 650 setup with case feeder at the end of the month.

Lead poisoning this way is mainly an issue of it getting into your mouth, like eating after handling lead. Just be really diligent about washing your hands after handling lead and you'll be fine in 99.9999% of cases.

What about just heating the lube and pouring it in? I believe someone did that to his Star.

Just made this and its cooking at the moment. I had real problems folding mine, kept breaking apart. Maybe I should have flattened it more. Eventually I got it working with the help of some wax paper.

Do you have Alliant powders in Germany or do you get it from somewhere else? Here in Finland all we got is Vihtavuori and that's not the optimal powder for shotgun reloading.

Yeah it's a tossup between the B&T and this norweigan model called the A-tec PMM-6

What a coincidence, been looking for suppressors for my G17 this week and what I do I see when I decide to check youtube? At least here's a good thing about finnish gun laws: suppressor regulations, we don't have any. Just buy what you want, in any amount for whatever reason. Only problem is most...

I wish some of these companies making replicas of lever guns and revolvers and whatnot would take to making some of these guns as well. I would really like to have a shooter like this in a common cartridge, maybe .38spl or .45ACP (I wonder if modern metallurgy would make the gun durable enough fo...

Do you use the factory barrel in your glock or do you have an after market model? Been considering an IGB for my G17 later, for the fully supported chamber and conventional rifling.

its perfectly safe as long as he washes his hands before touching food.

I really do love shooting revolvers. As a reloader you never have to pick up your brass either and that's actually a very serious advantage. Before I started reloading I didn't think that was a feature worth even mentioning. Now I only wished the new gun laws in Finland didn't suck so much for ha...

We got those naturally around here (finland). My dad once saw one lying on the lawn and thought it was the dog, until it flew away that is.

This is why we can't have nice things.

Getting a 650 soon to replace my lee classic turret and I really like your solution for feeding bullets, it's too bad you say it requires machining.

Aqualand in gran canaria, went there last week and I can safely say. Shittiest water park I have ever been to, coldest water this side of the arctic circle and paying the entrance fee is only the beginning of paying as almost everything costs extra. A whole day I could've spent at the beach inste...

A lot of things about the UK make sense to me now, like why they have to ban guns and put 18 year age limits on cutlery and whatnot.

I dunno about suitable for children or not, but I'm re-watching this movie now for the first time since I was 10. I have a vague memory that it had a sort of anti-technological message. I remember even then that I felt that was really stupid message even as a 10 year old. Maybe a rewatch 20 years...

It's quote common for myths like that to exist over here in certain weirdo groups. I mean you get all kinds of weirdos.

I approve of this video

Well the upper capital G, Q I would not have recognized unless paired with their lower case analouges. Some of the other letters also look like lower case except just bigger, such as the A, M, N and S and both Z's. That's a new phenomenon to me, possibly because I am from Finland. I am currently ...

I've found that new ones are being made, this site sells manual roll crimpers (siarm dot com goto reloading->various equipment) but it's a european site. But likely there should be some american dealers one would think. Planning to pick one of these up and see how it works.

Ok, do you know if it works to use modern plastic wad cups with black powder? Or should one use "old timey" wads?

I do love the old school wood and steel layout myself, I got an express that I've converted into a riot style gun with a bead and old fashioned wooden stocks. Wondering if I should put ghost rings on it or not and make it more of a dedicated slug gun, as I got an M1S90 with a bead and rib.

the primary danger of getting lead into you here is via ingestion actually. A mask would eventually clog up with all kinds of stuff. The best way is to use a fan to suck the fumes away from where you are standing. Preferably outside. I do all my casting standing in the doorway, with both doors op...

I would reduce that with sawdust before getting rid of the dross floating on top, just to get all the possible useful stuff like tin out of it and back into the lead.

This made me wonder if Mihec over on castboolits could come up with a 12ga slug group buy. It could work really well as a 1 or 2-cavity brass mold with a cramer HP system, that way you could cast HP's directly, as quick as you'd cast solids.

Interesting, I have a Safari and a Lamy I am thinking of turning one of them into an eyedropper. I like the eyedropper design for its simplicity and large capacity.

I've tried smoking my molds but I did not feel that worked any better, infact I get my best jobs done when I have the mold as clean and degreased as it can get.

Jesus people... Anyway... I got half a bushmaster myself, imported myself a Spikes .22lr rifle from the States in 2008 since I love .22lr anything. It was always i the plans to get a .223 upper for it, as it turned out Europe was suffering an AR shortage and I had to buy parts from multiple count...

Is that really good for the frame? Pulling the trigger on the gun without the slide on. I know on 1911s it's a big no-no, principle seems like it'd carry over.

The hare is a european hare (Lepus europaeus) and is probably the biggest type hare species in the world. I live in the same town as this was taken and I often see them running around, this one was medium sized I would say. The crows are ofcourse perfectly normal crows for this area of the world ...

It would be interesting to see your take on the Sig P226 X-Five, it's a SAO gun with manual safety. Which is my favorite configuration. I would so own a Sig over a Glock if it wasn't for the DA/SA thing, and the fact that the X-Five costs a fortune. Considering skipping both and trying out a CZ T...

Hmm you need to lube the cases for pistols? I am considering moving from my Lee Classic Turret to a 650 for greater speed, I never lube my cases, I don't even own case lube. Is this a neccessary step for using a dillon?

IIRC you have astigmatism, I heard you mention it in some other video. I think you could get special contacts or glasses specially made for shooting with open sights to fix that. I'm looking into the same for handgun shooting but with my long guns I do as you and put peeps on everything.
