I use the Lewis Lead Remover when need be.I did have to make my own plug for it though to rake through the .32 barrel.

check out Hornadys web site, http://www.hornady.com/index.php and see whats new for 2009.pretty interesting.

victor

sweet!! you are the lucky dog.I've got questions. what yardage did you shoot those at? what alloy are you using? what size are the bullets dropping out at? how many cavitys in mold? I assume they chambered good in the Winchester.whats your COL? When can i get my grubby little mitts on one of these m...

victor

I've shot half a box of this ammo also and had no extraction issues.
It does seem to have a bit more pop(felt recoil)than other factory ammo.It also shoots about 3" high at 50 yds. with rear sight bottomed out.

victor

I use the hornady unique case lube.This lube works good,smells good and one tub of it will last a life time( a little goes a long way). The sized and lubed cases go into a lyman dri-polisher(tumbler/vibrate) filled with crushed walnut shell.A couple of hours in the tumbler and the cases are dry of l...

How much are you guys paying for the Leverevolutions in .32WS? Please specify mail order or local and where. The local gun shop here, which is in the next town, is a highway robber. Thanks Also $22-$24 around here(except at Gander Mountain,really high$). MidwayUSA - $20.99 when they have them. 30-3...

victor

Sweet! good to see someone get their hands on some.I see midway usa had some available this week but were sold out in a day or two.I just placed an order at a local dealer. Look forward to a range (or hunt) report.Also,let us know if this hyper-velocity stuff works within your iron sights limits.I'v...

Found this view but no parts list with it.I thought it was kinda neat.To bad its not animated.

A handloaders manual is the first thing.It tells ya everything ya need to know.I use winchester brass and win. primers(large rifle).I've tried Unique and 2400 for mild cast loads,RL7,3031 and H335 for workin up hunting loads.RCBS 32-170-GCFN is the cast bullet i've used and the hornady 170gr. JFP. 6...

My cars front tires have out-lived its usefulness.
A dried up pen has out-lived its usefulness.
A dead battery has out-lived its usefulness.

How can my rifle/cartridge that gives hours of fun at the range,go afield to bag game and stand ready for home duty be said to have out-lived its usefulness?

victor

Any Levergunners here seen these on the shelves yet? Local dealers here are not sure when they will get them.I see Midway expects them at the end of August.I do handload for my .32 but I may try a box to see what the fuss is all about. Heres one article I found on the .32 gummy tip. http://www.rifle...

I stumbled upon this article today(from Apr. 2007).

What you have there is a round tuit !! Now get busy !

victor

what type seating plugs do you have on hand,and what type have you tried?my .357 die set comes with 3 types,one for flat point,one for round nose and one for spire points.I recommend the spire point plug for the speer bullet your using.It puts seating pressure on the sides of bullet instead of the s...

I can and do hunt with my levergun in the northern tier of New York.I find myself in heavily wooded areas and shots would be under 8o yds.100yd shots would be my limit with my eyes and open sights. I live in the southern tier where rifle use is limited to certain areas but is starting to expand.I ca...

victor

Duff, I don,t load for the .32-40 but I've read that there may be COL issues using the Hornady 170gr.JFP due to cannelure position.The Speer 170gr.bullet will work fine.There is a good article in a past issue of Handloader Magazine(FEB 2007 No.245)about the .32-40. As far as cast bullet molds go, I ...

victor

some other items I use not mentioned would be:
a tumbler for lubed rifle brass.
dental picks for clearing media from flash holes.
50 or 100rd. plastic ammo cases.
case loading blocks.
small can of oil for press linkage and such.
and a small radio.

For the handloading newbie who lacks some tools I have:

A set of stainless steel Midway dial calipers for that critical COL and i'll toss in
a Lee primer pocket cleaner for large and small primer pockets.going to 505stevec

victor

JeffG,
A most awesome offering,good on you.Glad to see someone accept it.

victor

All I can say is WOW

victor

another vote for the Ruger Mark II.I have the Target Model and it is a sweet shootin pistol.very accurate, reliable and the prices are reasonable..22 ammo still pretty cheap (bricks) but the .22 mags are getting pricey.

victor

nice report Joe,i hope the weather is better next time for ya.I have some questions about your brass situation. Did you notice anything with your brass the last time you shot your rifle? If you never had splits before using this rifle,I doubt the rifle is causing it now. What kind of environment was...

I agree rjohns94 ,it could make ya dizzy.I suggest our friend Hobie delete everything back to my first post.I will repost my items up for grabs and i'm sure other members who have unclaimed items will repost.It looks like there is not much left at this time.We could start with a cleaner slate.What s...

The Tuesday Night Trap League is firing up at my gun club and with alittle nudging I may join up.Some of these guys take it serious but I'm only looking for some fun and laughs.I've never shot in a organized league,but have tossed some clay birds with those spring loaded throwers. Now,the only shotg...

For anybody who wants to handload for this beast,Old Ironsights has a set of
rcbs .444 dies up for grabs at the pay it forward thread over on the classified side.

Of the 3 loading manuals I have, only one(lyman46th)mentions loads using RL-7 and thats for a 170 gr.JFP only.I only shoot a 184gr.cast bullet from my Win. m94.I'm looking for a safe starting load using RL-7.I don't have a chrony yet but looking to get about 1700-1800fps.I'm guessing 22-23 grs but w...

Joe, I bought a box of hornady bullets awhile back that had 2-3 bullets with missing cannalures.I sent the bad bullets with a short note to hornady and about a week or so later had 2 boxes of bullets in the mail box. They treated me right and I'm sure W-W would do the same.You just got to let them k...
