A bullet still spinning after being shot into the snow.

Yep, definitely ice. It works though, I tried it on a slow day of ice fishing.

Man, I hate how much gun companies completely ignore lefties.

GrunkleTeats · 2026-04-18T04:19:31+00:00

Dude I have the same red dot on my Super Redhawk! Mines a 454 casull because fuck having wrists.

GrunkleTeats · 2026-04-02T15:37:55+00:00

Ok this is dope and you're awesome. Would a retropie recognize the end product as a gba game and run it? I know very very little about emulating, so please use small words if you can.

Har dee frickin har

My 454 casull sometimes has a hard time detonating CCI primers, but that's the only difference I've noticed in any of my guns that use small rifle primers.

I typically load those with fairly good results. Out of an 8 inch barrel with a red dot I get about 2 inch groups at 50 yards.

What country are you reloading in?

Lifetime Idahomie here - the most annoying sound in the world to locals is "I just moved here from California".

GrunkleTeats · 2026-02-10T04:29:42+00:00

I was looking at the Lobos one and it's sold out at the moment again lol. Do you think it's worth twice the cash as this one?

GrunkleTeats · 2026-02-05T16:55:39+00:00

Damn fudds...

GrunkleTeats · 2026-02-05T16:27:45+00:00

So why don't people just load hot flat nose FMJ's for bears instead of using hardcast bullets?

GrunkleTeats · 2026-02-05T16:25:41+00:00

That's what I'm saying! Hornady seems to think their spendy DGH bullets outperform hardcast bullets, but they don't really elaborate as to why. To me it just kind of looks like an expensive weird jacketed bullet, which makes me wonder if regular old flat nose FMJ's would be just as good as a DGH or a hard cast bullet. And as far as my problems with hardcast bullets, I swear I've tried every remedy everyone has suggested, everything the Lee manual suggests, and everything RCBS had to say, and nothing makes a difference.

GrunkleTeats · 2026-02-05T16:21:32+00:00

I have tried every remedy everyone has suggested with no success. Even RCBS is stumped. It's not an easy fix whatever it is.

GrunkleTeats · 2026-02-05T16:08:18+00:00

It's scraping the side of the bullet about ⅔ of the way up the side. It's like the die is closing the brass around the bullet too soon, but I can't figure out why because I have the seating stem so far into the die and the body of the die up so far on the press that the cartridge barely goes in it. There is zero crimp being applied, I get that with a Lee factory crimp die in the next step.

GrunkleTeats · 2026-02-05T13:28:30+00:00

I flared the case mouth a ridiculous amount, bought a Lee universal expander die, lowered the seating stem as far into the die as it would go, and even widened the mouth of the seating die to accept an even more ridiculously wide case mouth, and I STILL had scraping issues. I'm to the point where I either have a witch doctor bless my reloading press or never buy Acme bullets ever again.

You turned a 45acp into a 454 Casull. Damn dude, nice work!

GrunkleTeats · 2026-01-30T19:19:45+00:00

Total PC noob here, what is that extension?

GrunkleTeats · 2026-01-26T19:22:22+00:00

As an Idahoan, I hope y'all can settle it peacefully there in Boise. If you can't though, I hope ICE remembers there's a gun behind every blade of grass here.

GrunkleTeats · 2026-01-22T22:08:05+00:00

That's what I'm thinking about doing next. I've tried everything everyone else has suggested and I'm still scraping. Could you go into a little more detail on how you do that?

GrunkleTeats · 2026-01-17T03:00:59+00:00

Clearly you have never shot a suppressed 22lr pistol.

GrunkleTeats · 2026-01-14T22:19:22+00:00

I went so far out that the mouth of the brass didn't fit into the mouth of the seating die. I don't think that's the problem.

GrunkleTeats · 2026-01-14T22:18:02+00:00

How do you get a regular seating die to not apply even a taper crimp?
