I should mention that I use Standard Winchester LP primers .... Jabez Cowboy

First off, You need to consider the reduced case volume, since it is less in modern brass, you don't need Quite as much Powder to reach the same pressure... I have pressure and velocity tested loads that my grandfather left me, going as far as pulling some bullets from corroded cases and using them in modern cases, and loading them into star-line brass using my method of loading, This is how I load to duplicate both the pressure and velocity generated by the original loads, that I shoot in this Game... First of I use Goex 3f, I drop-tube in enough that is well settled so as to need to be compressed 3/16 by seating the bullet. In the case of my brass and bullet this is 37.3 grains by weight. This load burns cleaner that loads not drop-tubed, and exactly duplicates the original loads, that my Grandfather left me from the period of 1876- 1919 all loaded with Holy Black... By the way you can't load the original bullets over 37.3 grains without damaging them if you Don't drop-tube them through a tube of at least 24 inches in length. So your idea holds no water...

Surprise.... Nope. Down-right Shocking! Alpo WOW Tupper Ware belongs in the Kitchen,,, not in Guns... Jabez Cowboy

Snow again !!! It's Easter and the poor bunnies are tired of winter... He is Risen !!! Jabez Cowboy

Shucks I had heard that everything is better in the good ole USA... Our federal Government is run by a bunch of disorganized Criminals.... Our once proud RCMP, is being commanded by a incompetent, appointee the sister of a liberal cabinet member, who had never held a command post before. Or even been next in command of some small norther post... But she was appointed by Turdeau our former Crime Minister... Jabez Cowboy

Amen !!!

Taking my bike in to get both tires replaced on Monday, I looks like snow is coming "Again" I guess this is either 5th. Winter or 4th. Spring... May you all have a Blessed Easter Season.... Jabez Cowboy

Don't think they would have cottoned to it very much.... Beside they already had the .3840, with original compressed loads of Black it was and is capable of 1,034 fps. out of a 7.5 inch barrel, with a .40 caliber 180 gr, bullet... So why bother with the .357 ? Jabez Cowboy

The disc of the model 96 Swedish Mauser, give the adjustment in minutes needed for ranges in excess of 300 meters.... With the standard 139 gr. load .. The Norma load chronographs at 3,030 fps out of my 96s, 29.3 inch barrels. Jabez Cowboy

When the Fed's get involved,,, up here it is a major screw-up... Jabez Cowboy

Well it seems that the annual Snowbird migration north has started... This kind of bird seems to flee Northern Climes at the onset of cold weather, only to return in time to interfere with the Motorcycle Season... Grump on.. Jabez Cowboy

Keep on Grumpin... The World needs more Grumps.... Sunny and 65 F , but windy.... We measure wind here by hanging a 12 pound anvil on a stout Chain, is it's out at the 3 or 9 0-clock it's starting to get windy...

Triple D; Ya still alive and kick'n ??? I hear rummers that you wasted away to nothing, and a good stiff wind blew ya away never to be seen again... Jabez Cowboy

Keep on Stumpin and Grumpin... Prayers up For 100%.. Jabez Cowboy

Good Show; Jabez Cowboy

The case tapers from the base for 1.5 inch then it has a half inch straight section to hold the bullet firmly in place. I tried both Lyman and Lee dies for my Highwall in .4065 cases sized in both would not chamber... They are of a straight taper from base to mouth and don't size the case correctly... RCBS Cowboy dies made to the original specs work... They are tapered from the base for 1.5 inches then parallel sided to hold the bullet... Jabez Cowboy

.4065 is not straight wall case....

Shoulder hit with a .357 beats a miss with a 40,,, and Shoulder hit with a 40 beats a miss with a 45 acp. ,,, A shoulder hit with a 45 beats Both... A center of Mass hit with a Shotgun beats all... Jabez Cowboy
