  1. Az, the old standby load for 130 gr. 270 was 60gr of H4831, Might be worth a try. Of course work up to it in your gun. PS: I've had better luck in the accuracy dept. with IMR 4350.
  2. Nice job, thanks for sharing.
  3. Thanks for the update. I'm looking forward to the finished product.
  4. Don, does Billingsley have a website? I did a search and didn't come up with anything.
  5. Yep, that's plumb sexy. I like that winchester style trigger, too.
  6. The libs always argue that a certain gun has no hunting or sporting use, but, thats not what the 2nd amendment is all about. This short video makes it perfectly clear why we need to fight tooth and nail to stop the libs from enacting new bans and regulations. http://voxvocispublicus.homestead.com/Battle-of-Athens.html
  7. One time a mouse ran up my grandpa's pants (he wore big baggy pants). He grabbed the mouse through his pants and pulled him out away from his leg and with his other hand got out his pocketknife and cut a big chunk out of his pants to get rid of the mouse. I guess he wasn't taking any chances.
  8. Ralph, I'll take the 45-70 braass. PM sent. Thanks, Roger
  9. Clemson, I think sometimes those things just happen. I had the same thing happen to me with a brand new Manson reamer. I sent it back and they polished on it some but it still done the same thing, I tried several different barrels and several different techniques and different feeds and speeds and nothing I did would make that reamer not chatter. I even tried wrapping it with different materials like you sometimes hear and still a no go. I finally gave up on the reamer. I guess the stars weren't aligned when that reamer was made. I've used dozens of other reamers and never had that happen before or since. BTW it was a 7.62x39 reamer. Roger
  10. Don, that looks like the 10 penny method to me.
  11. Joe, did you get your francotte from A.C. too? What condition is it. Does it look like it might be a shooter? I'm rebuilding mine from the ground up and rebarreling to 33 win. I wouldn't have shot it before the rebuild. Too far gone. I also have a Gahendra and have shot it. It has a nice bore, but, the throat is the tightest spot in the whole bore. Not very conducive to accuracy. I did manage about 4 inches at 50 yds. I guess minute of pig. The trigger pull felt like about 20 lbs. Keep us updated on your progress.
  12. Man o man I don't know what to think about that except you ought to have about 50,000 rounds loaded up by now. You can't do much of anything else.
