      Rolling block.

      I have an old rolling block rifle that is hard to find brass for. I believe it's Danish / 11.7 x 56r... I can make brass but it would be cheaper and easier to just use 45-70 brass. Is there someone who can reline just the chamber, and not the whole barrel? Any ideas are appreciated.

      Lee mold numbers

      Apparently, it was too much trouble to stamp the bullet diameter and weight on their bullet molds ,but Lee did put an id number on them. I found a list of their new/for sale mold numbers, but not their old single cavity and discontinued molds. Where do you find that???

      a question for AR experts / carbine upper on standard lower

      OK, I had this idea to build a 'dissipator' style upper...short gas tube/adjustable gas block/ full length forearm+sight radius. The front sight block is set screwed in place, as is the gas block. It shoots ok but the bolt seems to suffer from a weak gas pulse, as the bolt ejects the brass but...
