    Taylor's Italian Inline Capper

    Thanks for the reply 4v50 Gary. That's a great idea! It sounds simple enough to make with a chunk of plastic and a milling machine I have access to. I was just curious why that lanyard loop wasn't intended to hold it back by design.

    Taylor's Italian Inline Capper

    I am brand new to black powder and have been getting all my accessories. I read a really good review about the Taylor's Italian made inline capper. This thing looks machined and not made from sheet metal! It's heavy duty! But, I can't figure out how to load the darn thing. The "lanyard"...

    Elephant Black Powder

    e The date code may be the Julian date. In other words, the fourth day of the year 2001. That may be why it is written with three places.

    AK mags milsurp Polish or Yugo BHOs -- thoughts?

    Browning, many thanks for your post. I bought 10 Croatian mags, and not a single one locks into my Chinese T56. I knew I was going to have to fit them, but your post just gave me a good place to start!

    Smith and Wesson model 10 w,/bull barrel.

    I had a Model 10 bull barrel as a policeman in the late 70s. I remember the trigger was like glass. I shot first place in my class with it. Now you got me wanting one again!

    Organizing small tools on your reloading bench

    I use a few sizes of the plastic food containers (they come in multi-packs) for storing bulk bullets and larger tools. I also use some super magnets (neodymium) to hold on to other steel tools like allen wrenches, screwdrivers, files, die wrenches, etc

    9mm case length, once-fired brass already too short?

    I recently received a box of 500 new .41 magnum Starline cases. They too are shorter than listed TRIM TO length. Even after sizing. I'm not going to worry about it. I already loaded 100 keeping to at or just below listed COAL depending on the bullet I used.

    Static and powder dispensing

    Thanks a bunch! I just finished dispensing a loading block full of cases. You were right! My once used dryer sheets worked like a champ! Once I wiped all the surfaces down, the powder flowed like water into the cases! I've been learning a lot from you folks, and I just knew this was the...

    Static and powder dispensing

    I'm back into reloading after about a dozen years or so. I'm trying to load some .41 magnum using my new Chargemaster 1500 and a green plastic RCBS powder funnel. The powder is Unique. I'm noticing that a lot of powder is sticking inside the funnel and not dropping into the cases. That, plus...

    What do you clean your dies with

    I use Gunscrubber. It is an aerosol that will blast out the die innards and will also leave a protective coating.

    Plumb Hatchet

    My Hudson Bay is one of my favorites. It's made in El Salvador by the Condor Tool and Knife company which makes real hand made quality blades by craftsmen trained by Germans on German equipment. Need a knife, machete, sword, or shovel? Condor makes it. http://www.condortk.com/...

    What wet tumbling liquid?

    I use the same: ArmorAll Wash and Wax and powdered citric acid. For each 1 gallon water, I use 1/4 teaspoon citric acid (Lemishine) and 3 tablespoons ArmorAll Wash and Wax. Amounts may vary depending on your water

    Small base dies for once-fired mil brass

    Ok guys, I took one of the cases and it fit nicely in my rifle. All it was, was just burrs on the rims from extraction. I really appreciate all the responses, plus I feel better actually knowing they fit in my chamber! And, I saved 50 clams!

    Small base dies for once-fired mil brass

    No, I haven't tried to fit the cases in my rifles. I'm assuming (bad word...bad bad bad), that since the cases fit between the min and max planes of the headspace gage, that they should fit in any rifle. These will be shot out of any of my AR-15s, and I'm not loading for precision.
