Uriah, SASS # 53822

Sarcasmn, I have a 38-50 REM Hepburn, based on the 30-40 Krag case, 2.25”. 50-52 ffg Goex, 55 gr Goex OE, compression around .1-.2”, 1200-1300 fps I have a 12 twist barrel that lets me employee 365 gr bullet. If you go with the 18 twist, it will let you light bullets/hunting bullets only. A 14 twist is common for BPCR for 38-55. Go with the 12 twist. Uriah

4-1/2”?

I loaded a bunch of spire point bullets in a 30-30 for a friend. 1899 Savage, no tube feed. They went in to the gun OK and shot fine, at the range. At the command, clear all guns, he had a couple around in the magazine, that’s when we found they wouldn’t eject. He had to fire the gun to make it safe. Load and unload. Lesson learned. Uriah

I owned one just like it. 5.5”barrel, 44 mag, fluted cylinder, round trigger guard, STEEL grip frame, from 1987 or 1988. Sweet shooter. Uriah

JackSlade, I concur with SD. 25” high at 100 yards via Hornady ballistic calculator. 365 gr bullet, 38-50 Rem-Hepburn, 1295 fps. I’m running .22” to .25” Goex FFg and Olde Epnsford (sp - I have the bottle in front of me and I can’t figure out what the first two letters are). How about the twist on your rifle? Seems kind of slow. Uriah

The melt point is 618° for 25:1 or 30:1 lead tin. I figured that the lead will hold the same temperature in transition, same as water. I don’t know if that’s so, that’s all I have got. I placed the thermometer when it’s half liquid and half hard. If thermometer doesn’t read 618° I change it with a 5/8 inch wrench, just under the face of the thermometer. Single cavity, hand dipping 365gr 750-760° with garage temp at 60° 550gr 780°, garage temp 70° I am going to experiment with lower temperatures in the bottom pure Lee elect pot, on the six cavity mold. 740-745° is too hot. Mold oven. Fits 1-4 cavity molds, but, not six. Uriah

Wild Hair Larry, I’ll take 3 bags. Uriah

Never mind, I got it. http://www.castpics.net/subsite/TopPunches/Lee.html Uriah

Can anyone recommend a nose punch for a Lyman lubersizer for Lee 358-125-RF. I can’t find it in any of the Lee documents online nor can I see it in Midway. Lyman nose punches for the 357 cal bullets: 495 RF point bullet, 429 Keith style bullet. Help needed. Thanks, Uriah

Cholla, yes, you are right. On the other hand, black powder cartridge rifles, 45-70, top out at 1200 ft./s. And from the graph, it’s almost a straight line function. The games we play with the BPCR, the range are known. I’m interested in the wind deflection. Thanks, Uriah

While were talking about chronographs in a separate post, I was wondering if any of you dived into the BC? I’m looking for a Paul Jones 45001 BC. I’m using the estimation BC of .357 I know LabRadar is capable of this, And based on my brothers experience, is difficult to use (Been waiting for the BC 3-4 years now). Garmin looks like it’s easy to use, but doesn’t offer the BC. Although, I’ve talk to some users, and they say that there’s an app for a Garmin, that offers a myriad of information, minus the BC. Thanks, Uriah
