   You need a special die to open up the first part of the neck to seat cast lead. Also shout yourself a copy of the Lyman Cast Bullet Handbook. Its all in there. Grandpamac.

   Greetings Moa Hunter, Not quite. The primer backed out of the case just means that the pressure is not high enough to stretch the cases. I have not noted any leakage with backed out primers. We are...

   Greetings All, The .276 Enfield cartridge was a cracker though. Not much chop as a military cartridge but wouldn't have looked out of place in a modern rifle. A 7 mm semi short magnum. Grandpamac.

    Thanks for the mention Flyblown, I have loaded both the .358 Win and the .350 Rem Mag, both my sons rifles. Both are easy cartridges to load other than the short mag on the .350 limiting the...
