When I set up my sizing operation I found a nice used RCBS press on ebay. Mounted it upside down at the edge of the bench. It makes it easy to drop a bullet into the die and then press through with the ram. The bullet takes a ride down the vinyl tube. The fall is slow enough that the drop...
Interesting!
Is the felt wad used in muzzle loading to prevent gas cutting of the bullet or is it for sealing the barrel under the bullet or a little of both?
I have tried some muzzle loading sabots in my .457 Texan with .40 cal bullets. Mixed accuracy results, but need to spend more time on it.
I have been working on this one for a few weeks. It ended up with some pretty nice figure in the grain when all done.
Enjoy the Walnut and "Iron" photos.

I want to be able to have a flush M-Lok rail on the underside of the forearm of a stock I was designing.
I found very few sources for them and out of stock much of the time. Well I figure I will just make my own.
Here is some photos showing the my steps to making them.
Sheet material...
I have kind of wondered if there would be an interest for shoulder stocks for the Crosman 2400KT, 2300KT, and 1300KT line of pistols. Years ago Crosman has a pretty sharp one they made would a wood shoulder stock.
