@SDMacMan reminded me that I failed to mention lubrication of the turret bushing. Redding recommends gun oil on all moving parts, but I use mineral oil. Just a smear on the bushing is all that is needed as well as on the top of the turret just where the big bolt rides. I forgot to mention that in the video! 🤛🏻🔫🇺🇸

I just bought one and don't recommend it. It is full of engineering flaws. Mainly it needs a third post on the rear it will not index correctly because there's no support back there for the ball detent under the turret. The priming arm is flawed also.

Good Morning to You Walter 🎉 My Dad literally beat into Me "Always treat Your molds like they were extremely precious to You". And I have, Dad had an OLD Ideal single cavity of this bullet marked #429215, which means it was made before the Thompson gas check design bullets were incorporated into the Lyman/Ideal line. They took existing bullets numbers and switched them out with the new design. Or so Dad told Me. I cast a lot of these bullets out of that old SC mold for His ancient S&W #3 in .44Russian. Trimmed down a lot of .44Spl cases too. I bought that mold from Buffalo Arms back in 1998, they had a Special run made by Lyman. The allen head locking screw was standard equipment by then. And I switched out all locking (grub) screws by then. I crimp right over the top of that front driving band, never had a problem. And I've even shot some in both .44Spl & .44WCF in Lever guns without a problem. Thanks again, see Ya tonight. 🎉 👍😁🦶🪶🇺🇸
