I've not used BP in this rifle. I don't compete formally anymore, and all of our shooting is just for fun. Besides, I have LOTS of WC872! The bullet is the Lee hollow base, powder coated, unsized wheel weights.

Same here . Mine are cast from a 30-1 alloy just because i had 2 big ingots of it no problems .

Call around and find a shop with a waterjet . No heat to worry about and will be a 5 minute job with 4.95 minutes being the set up and clamping the part in a fixture .
Because all his buddies wouldn't say what the heck is a 358 Winchester . Lol I like the conversion idea go for it Tex ..
Which one ? The light one or the heavy one?
The only modification I made to mine was to put a 1" 4x Tasco scope on it when I bought it. I'm happy with it like it came from the box!
Every step is an inspection point. While I no longer have a .45 anything, I did use those with the sp primers for woods walking. And remember, you can use a sr primer in them without any problems.
Edited, I put down a kicker that had been recommended to me. The 4064 does shoot dirty, but groups under 1.5". The other kicker was at 4"+. 46 gr. WC 872, 5.5 gr. 4064. 405 gr. Gov. bullet.
Too much ammo? I don't understand the concept. Please explain!
Ohio for a while Kalifornia then who knows where - Missouri?
I was always taught to respect my elders, but it's getting harder and harder to find any!
Μολὼν λαβέ; approximate Classical Greek pronunciation [molɔ̀ːn labé], Modern Greek [moˈlon laˈve]), meaning "Come and take them" is a classical expression of defiance reportedly by King Leonidas in response to the Persian army's demand that the Spartans surrender their weapons at the Battle of Thermopylae.
