Terry, Thanks for the info. I got the brass from Wideners.com . I didn't really need 1000 and I'd be willing to part with a few if you need some, especially if...

... There are some things that you should understand. This is not a suggestion; this is reality! A firearm is a tool. Like any other tool, say a power drill...

If you are a member of the 454 Casull group, you must read this before you post any more messages. There is a wealth of information exchanged at this group....
While going through my Guns America daily email, http://www.gunsamerica.com/ I came across this company http://www.mbkunlimited.com/ He has some interesting...
I uploaded some reloading data that I've compiled through time from a variety of online sources. Since I converted from excel to text format, it is fairly...
Starline Brass has a very good reputation. I've not tried the 454. I did run into a batch of early 40 S&W brass that the rim did not fit my case gauge.(too...
I just got done casting some 335 gr. Lyman #452651 bullets. They are gas checked and I have them sized to .452 and lubed with Lyman SuperMoly. If you look at...
After installing the spring kit, I got the gun back together and slowly worked the action. I could feel what I can only describe as 'grinding metal' as the...
I use the Redding Pro set with their profile crimp die. My experience is very limited, but they seem to make good ammo. I have read that the crimp is very...
My first 454 was a 6.5" Raging Bull with the early bright stainless finish. I am not the pistollero that many of you are, although it was far and away the most...
I use the Hornady New Dimension three die set, threw out their (IMHO) worthless fourth crimp die and use the Lee Factory crimp Die--great die. I only size the...
Dave, Welcome to the world of the Puma 92. I never met a man who didn't love his. They do make an 18" now; probably for Cowboy shooting because the 16 won't...
I use the Lee Factory Crimp on just about everything I have. Hornady dies are great, too. In fact, I had to replace a Dillon .30- 30 seating die with a...
That's good news, Dave. I have a Redding T-7 that I bought to use for big (long) caliber rifle ammo. The Redding work on the Dillon presses, too, so I think...
Wow, Terry, you're writing "the book" on "The Care and Feeding of the Puma 92". It will be nice when you can put it all together in the files. What a...
Ross, How do you like your T-7? I have been thinking of getting one. I've been loading on a Bonanza Co-Ax for about 35 years. Earl. ... From: Ross To:...
Earl, I just recently got the T-7 and haven't had a chance to use it yet. I got it to load the long cartridges like the .300 Win Mag, and even my .308. I...
After using a circa 1930's single stage Pacific Press (Pacific is what Hornady used to be before they moved to Grand Island, NE), then a 1970's version of the...
Ross, I use ONLY Redding dies, and a Redding BR3 powder measure, and think they are the best on the market, although I do use the Lee FCD on EVERY round I...
I'm sure giving it a lot of thought. It's the first press that I've ever thought of giving up my Co-Ax for. Even if I get the T-7, I'll probably still keep the...
Yes, it is HEAVY ! Thanks for reminding me abou the extra turrets. I need to get set up for other callibers besides the .big rifles and .454. Do you use all...
I uploaded a photo of my reloading table to my folder. For those who don't cast your own bullets, that thing in the middle is my Lyman 450 lube/sizer. Yeah,...
I really don't think you can have too many machines, unless you have no space. You will enjoy keeping the other machine set up for a caliber, and having the...
I had to set up in the garage. I sure never realized how much I depended on my digital camera. When I get the camera charged I will take some pix of my...
Other than the substandard crimp die they put in the 454 Casull set, I've never had a problem with Hornady. The only reason I got hooked on them is because I...
If anyone tries a "Linebaugh-type load" in .45LC in a .454 case, please let me know how it goes. I understand you get less more power and less recoil with a...
That's interesting. Dave said he uses the Redding Pro set with their profile crimp die and gets as good a crimp as the Lee. I guess you aren't using the Pro...
