I found some of each of the lubes mentioned in the article, used them, and since I found them too late (don't shoot much anymore), can't
really comment on their superiority. Perhaps someone here has.

Have a good day

Has anyone loaded their 375 WINCHESTER according to PACO's article? With the long 38-55 brass? Would appreciate any comments on your results.

Thanks, Roughcreek

roughcreek

yup, it's real 30-06 stuff

roughcreek

Boy, do I feel dumb. Harry hit it. I was looking at it upside down. Oh boy!!!!

roughcreek

I bought some 30-06 brass some time ago, just opened box. Its new brass with A head stamp OF WN LC 78. I can't find the WN anywhere. Any one have the answer?

Thanks, Roughcreek

Paco also makes .410 reloading tools.

80 - Brother in-law gave me a PAK TOOL with dies foe 38/357 and 30-06 in the mid 70"s and I was hooked.

You gotta read "VILLAGE HORSE DOCTOR:WEST OF THE PECOS" Enjoyable reading also.

Ordered it from Amazon last night. Thanks for the tip. Another Texas guy whose books I enjoy is Ben K. Green out of Cumby, TX. Altho I think his experiences are earlier than the 40"s. "WILD COW TALES" AND "HORSE TRADIN" He later became a vet and did extensive research on the...

+1 on "RANCHO DELUXE"

roughcreek

Thanks guys, next time I won't hesitate to buy.

What can you do when you come across a gun with no serial number. Or a Marlin with a tang sight and someone drilled through one of the numbers to install it.
I sure wanted that Marlin but unsure of the missing digit so passed.

Thanks

roughcreek

ya, guess I'll just use them as I need them.

Thanks

I drove by Taco Time the other day and 10 min later my phone wanted me to rate my visit to Taco Time.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY PACO!!!!!

Thank you for all the knowledge you have shared with us.

We are about 6 miles from town and Century Link DSL is the only thing available here. I get 6MB to 14MB and they call that high speed. We used to have Netflix but the constant buffering was so frustrating we dropped Netflix. Every time a new customer signs up it slows down, to where now they are not...

The Strasbourg goat tests in the early 90's addressed this issue.
If I remember correctly the 357 and the 45ACP were high on the list.
Of course ammo has improved greatly since then.

roughcreek

Had some pieces around shop and some spare time.
Maybe I can keep pieces togeather now.
Always searching for the correct tool.

I have most of his writings and refer to them often.
Most recently the 375 Winchester.

Thank you, Paco.

I started reloading with an old PAK-TOOL. Loaded many 30-06 (neck size), 357 mag and 38 special with it. Wish I had kept it. But traded off. now use Dillon 550.
Have a 310 tool I got in a trade, but haven't gotten any "dies" yet.

roughcreek

AND momentary loss of hearing.

roughcreek

yup, all good advice, thanks.

Will use the Marlin for 38-55 and leave the 375 for the win XTR.
Thanks all.

roughcreek

Thank you all for your replies. Appreciate it.
Does this mean I could load my 30-30 Marlins to much higher pressures and still be safe?

roughcreek

I recently purchased a Glenfield 30A that has been rebored to 375 winchester. my concern, is the Marlin able to handle the increase in pressure of the 375 win. On another forum it was suggested that the round bolt was made stronger on the factory Marlin 375 to make it able to handle the presssure. T...

I recently ordered some heavy 45-70 bullets from him. Like you said, I called and was told they were in stock . But not so. He ran them soon enough and I got them in a reasonable time. It would be good idea if ordering large calibre, heavy bullets to get a sample first, if possible. Did your bullets...

OK, here's my favorite set of stags: https://i.imgur.com/yRa5d1u.jpg https://i.imgur.com/NEUOUy6.jpg Old Bisley in .41 Colt. I may ask to be buried with it. It had Christy barrel and cylinder in .44 Special when I got it but it came with the originals so I put them back on and acquired the mould an...

stags for my rugers

How do you guys get such good pic??
This is my old colt that was a gun club trainer.

roughcreek

Eastside OK but Spokane area pretty liberal. In fact I think Spokane is now a sanctuary city also.

roughcreek

Prayers up for you, Paco. Hope all turns out OK.

roughcreek

And some grips I made.

roughcreek

I have a similar setup. Only thing I did from stock to the truck (3/4T chev) was add air bags. It seems to ride and drive nicer when it is level.

roughcreek

You got it.
Also second the water and visit Doc.
Take care.

roughcreek

Glad to hear he is doing OK. His books and articles are still my favorites.
Many thanks to him.

roughcreek

Yup, agree with Nate.

roughcreek

I have all Paco's books and most of his articles. Refer to them often for reloading info.
Thoroughly enjoy reading them.
Thank you Paco.

roughcreek

I've used the original on heavy 7MM mag loads and
Super Blackhawk loads and worked fine. But it would
not read lead bullets. I understand the new one does.
I'll have to see if there is an upgrade. Too expensive
to just buy another.

Thanks, Shasta, With the bullet ID'ed I was able to find out a lot.
I think I will just keep the box whole as a collector piece.

Thanks again,

Saw these at a local gunshow last week end. Labeled 30 cal, Lyman #2 alloy, 149 gr., 0.311 dia. Mold HB150. Guy said his Grandfather cast a bunch of them. Didn't have any further information. Anyone used these??? The bands are copper. He said they were not sized. Any info appreciated. http://i126.ph...
