Buffalo Classic is in the house!
« on: February 03, 2014, 07:40:57 AM »
Picked her up this morning!
Off to the cave to check it over, slug the barrel and start loading
 some boom pills if the boolits fit
Hopefully I can beat the incoming negative temps to the rifle range

Or just load some .459 or .460's in fully fire-formed cases and go see what it does. The fit in the throat is more critical as long as it is at least groove dia..

I got all my goodies made today to start loading. Size/lube die & punch made,
expander /belling plug made to reduce neck tension.
I hope that I can just used un-sized bullets after firing forming the brass in the rifle.
Temp has to come above 0 before I go to the range again :-[

Both mine shoot basically WWt with a dash (no more than 2%) tin for mould fillout just fine, but I really only dup. BP ballistics anymore with smokeless. Plenty good thwack!
Good Luck!
