Nothing like digging up a 5 1/2 year old thread. If the guy hasn't figured it out by now it is too late.

For some reason I got this craving for a chili dog so I went out and bought buns, dogs and chili. Not much fun to pet and they won't lick your face BUT they was good!

Nothing like dragging up a five year old post. $4500 then is NOT $4500 now in the gun market.

They started in June of 2008 and spanned several issues. There were a series of articles on Pietta and Uberti. For some reason most are not in the index so you have to scroll through each edition. The first one starts on page 38 of the June, 2008 issue.

I have been looking for antler pusher no luck.
Here is one of my Lightning pushers. This one is made from a .30-30 and some aluminum rod. Fits in a cartridge loop.

1. You need to slowly cock the hammer and see when the bolt comes up. It should pop up at the lead-in notch. If it is early or late or mushy you need to describe the problem better.
2. Take a LITTLE material off the lower finger on the hand/pawl. It only takes a stroke or two with a sharp file to make the difference.

I could tell you, but if I did I would be banned from the wire.🤔

Hole where detent is fitted. ({Punch in hole to show where it is.)
Detent, spring, and set-screw.
To me the easier loading and unloading more than offsets any perceived benefits of the reverse spin. Unless I am installing s short stroke I leave them in.

There is virtually zero market for BP shotshells, especially 20 gauge shells. Even in SASS, which is one of the few places BP shotshells are used, there are VERY few people using 20 gauge BP shells. You say you need 6 to 10 boxes. That is going to run around $120.00 to $200.00. If you buy a Lee loader for $45.00 and then load 10 boxes you will be money ahead. Here is one source that advertises them and had some in the past. I don't know if they have any in stock.

They have a reverse pawl to help align the chambers with the loading gate. To get this alignment correct it has a spring loaded detent that engages the ratchet teeth. Cock the hammer and look in the hammer channel and you can see the set screw that holds in the spring and detent. If you remove the detent in many cases the reverse pawl will work. In some cases it may require a little more work for it to allow the cylinder to turn fully backwards.
Two reasons are typically given for removing the detent. First, if you have a high primer sometimes you can back it up far enough to clear the jam. Key word, sometimes. Checking for high primers is not something people should be doing while firing or at the loading table. It should be done at home as part of your ammo inspection.
The second reason is that it might help with a reload. For the past several years reloads on-the-clock have become more and more rare at SASS matches, especially matches above the club level. Even with the reverse feature a lot of people screw up the reload anyway because they don't practice reloads.
So, for 99.9% of shooters the reverse spin is of little or no value.

Kind of irrelevant with a 60 power factor.

Can't see anything. Asking me to sign in to something I know nothing about.

There is a Sportsman's Warehouse just south of Ben Avery off I-17.

You can also call Bond and see if they still sell their competition mainspring.

Your issue is not with powder coated bullets. It is with a crummy bullet caster. It's like painting a car. If you paint over dents the car is still going to be dented. Your heading makes it sound like the coating caused some sort of problem. That is apparently not so.

They are legal but I have never seen one used in a side match. The side matches are speed matches and are completely dominated by double action top break revolvers.

It's just you.

Many of the guns used for SASS are tuned for competition. Dual purpose generally means it is not good for either purpose. Sort of like "universal fit" means it does not fit anything.

I click on these and it says I have to sign into an Amazon account.
