50-90 Farmingdale

[Mike]

Update on this thing. Doc measured the twist at 26.
The bullets and such that folks sent have got here , and everything was/is looking good. Except for one thing... I thought poor Doc was going to collapse, he had ordered some stuff from Grafs, and by jing they stuck it right on FedEx, and it came in two days... Only problem was instead of 50-90 dies , they sent a box that said 444 Marlin 3 die set, that had only two dies in it, and neither one was anything we needed.. Haven't talked to him since that episode, so we're probably on hold for a few more days. Weather isn't zactly good for shooting anyway..

Don, I have an extra set of RCBS .50/90 dies. Just so you know. Shoot sharp, Mike

Thanks Mike, will keep those in mind if Grafs doesn't come thru.
Those patched bullets you sent fit just nicely in the cases he has. I suggested maybe he just make a sheet of lube to punch some lube cookies from and he could shoot the patched bullets from you and powderburner without any reloading dies.

Hey, that should work very well for starters. Use powder charges that don't need compression and you're off to the range. Shoot sharp, Mike
