I’ll try PWL.

Hi, I’ve been getting into Gallery rifle. I see some of the guys wearing black leather bullet holders. They hold 6 pistol calibres rounds. I’m told there is a manufacturer in the UK that makes them but no one can remember his name. If you have some I’m interested or maybe you know the guy who makes them. Any help appreciated.. G.

Thanks for that.

Long shot on Pigeonwatch, but I was hoping to turnup a set of elements for the from sight of my Anschutz bench-rest rifle. Anyone?

Here’s the story…some while ago, I think during Covid boredom, I spotted an advertisement for a magazine that held a high number of rounds for the S&W 10-22. I think it was 40 or 35 rounds, way more than the 25 that the SW mag can take. I tend to load 20 in my mags as jamming occurs. The company was recognisable and UK based. I paid I think £50, not sure, but nothing since. I waited some time and emailed them. The reply said that the magazine was nearing its testing stage!!! and to be patient. I presumed that the magazine was ready to post. OK. Now I can’t find any address or number to check. I’ve searched through my computer but can’t turn up a confirmation or anything. Does anyone know the company or bought as I did?

I’m looking for the Lee full length reloading 3 die set in .303 British. I have the neck sizing only dies only, but would rather use the 3 die set.

I think a group of BP shooters could combine and import high quality BP from England from Krank’s. If the hazmat is divided among the group, then the price should be manageable. Is that not feasible?

I’m looking at a Konus 1-6x24 30mm. Would that spec focus at close ranges as in Gallery rifle, from 25 to 10 yards.

I’ve recently got into Gallery Rifle competition, T&P and Multi Target. I bought a Marlin 94 in .44 magnum. I was wondering about a suitable scope for these disciplines, for example, is 3x9 acceptable. Is there one scope that dominates. Cheers.

Well, before this I’ve waited for 13 weeks for One On, but for a complete Regrant just recently, it was 6 weeks.

Great video.

I reload lots of .38 Sp, .357 and .44 magnum with small gallery powder loads. Being able to see the powder down inside the case is important, and I’ve noticed new brass makes it easy. Old brass not so easy because of the sooty deposits. Would an ultrasonic cleaner remove the deposits inside the case? I load on a Lee Pro 1000 and I can get lovely shiny brass on the outside of the case with all the usual methods. Has anyone used an ultrasonic cleaner to do this? Don’t like the steel pins idea as it sounds like too much trouble but I'm interested in ultrasonic method. Anyone use that method?

pippy, thanks mate for the offer….I’m sorted now. G.

Lol….will you sell them though? Did you have a price?

I’m looking for 10-22 Ruger magazines but 10 shot only, the ones supplied with the rifle.

I’m looking for bullet molds for 9mm Luger. I’ve tried the Lee 124 grain (6) with little success. Hoping an old pistolero might have something.

I have been trying to source Weaver T36 for benchrest shooting but it appears they are no longer made. I have seen one for sale in the United States but that has its problems. Does anyone know a dealer who might be able to source one?

Hoping to find a good quality front rest for .22 Bench Rest Shooting. Caldwell, Remington, Rock etc.

Hoping to find a Lee 20lb melting pot for casting. Anyone out there? Name your price.

The safety catch for my Mossberg 500 broke today. Would anyone have a spare or know of a place that might have one in stock?

The Loadmaster priming is a challenge. It’s the only weak part of the design but you can do it. I see lots of reloading dudes on YouTube using it including ElvisAmmo so there you go. Good luck with it, but I sold mine after I gave it a good go.....and I’m a tinkerer. I went back to the Lee Pro 1000 for 9mm, 357, 45 etc. I don’t shoot 222/223 but I think the Pro 1000 can handle that calibre. I’ve spoken to many guys about reloading and the truthful ones will admit that Dillon and Lyman and RCBS can be a pain in the *** when priming. ps lots of Reloader's prime separately.

I’m going to revisit casting my bullets and was looking for a used Lee Production Pot IV. Any retiring casters out there, give me a shout.

I have an old box of Mountain & Sowden in the workshop. They are not mine so must have been given the box.

Vince, your reminding me of all the reasons I stopped casting bullets. Key holing is a nuisance and one that I never really solved. I retired the moulds for 9mm, 357/38, .45acp and .40sw and moved to copper wash or bought hard-cast lead. I download all my calibres now so that they just recycle the pistol or are just sufficient for revolver. I never hot load any calibre as there is no near. Leading is not an issue. I began casting again for a Parker Hale Volunteer and remembered how much fun casting can be. It was the present lock-down that has lead me to powder coating because I had the moulds, alloy bricks and an oven sitting unused. It’s the powder that’s holding me back. I’ve noticed that the powder is cheap so if I buy, and it’s no good, then no harm. I can’t believe that no one on PW is doing it or at least responded.

I use Federal primers exclusively now and have never had a problem, ever. I shoot about 150/250 a month, rifle and pistol, depending. Or I did. The only time a primer exploded was a CCI large pistol primer and it set off 3 more in the Lee Pro Primer tray. I will never forget it.
