Dear readers,

I would very much appreciate an answer to these questions:

What is the max fps before leading starts with 147 gn. swc in a 6" barrel?

DOES ANYONE KNOW OF A PAIR OF FRANZITE HORSEHEAD GRIPS FOR SALE?...WOULD PREFER NEW  OLD STOCK BUT WOULD TAKE ANY WHITE PAIR WITH NO BROWNING. THESE WERE A STANDARD CATALOGUED ITEM BUT HAVE YET TO SEE A PAIR ON EBAY OR GUN BROKER. 

Any help in finding an Old Army bullet rammer would be greatly appreciated- Thanks Jeff Brown

DSorry, when I logged in I misprinted the model due to fat fingers and small keyboard. I should have printed Colt 1873,S#4xxx. 

It all started with a 1911-A1. I had long been a fan of Colt's venerable single-action semiautomatic Government model since I first fired one as a 17 year-old Marine recruit. In the years since I bought a number of Colts and assorted clones from Springfield Armory. In the spring of 1992 I decided to build my own. I used an Essex Arms frame, a Colt slide and painstakingly stippled the front strap with a steel punch.

Just about to start loading for the first time can anyone tell me if the Hornady .500 Linebaugh dies are alright? They are alot cheaper than rcbs and I wonder if there is a reason. thanks.
