Greetings, Professor Marvel!

   Thanks for the Link. This fellow has very nice photos. These old reloading tools are a lot of fun to use, and actually work
rather well.

I am in the process of selling a Chiappa Spencer Carbine in .56-50.  Someone told buyer the barrels were bored wrong. I think they are confusing them with the Pietta Smith Carbine.  Anyone hear of a problem with Chiappa Spencer barrels, other than maybe needing a little Loc-Tite?

My shot charge may be a little more than 1oz.

When I was using my MEC Grabber AA hulls wouldn’t crimp well. Always had a hole in the center. When I switched to using my 600jr. I got good crimps.
My 600jr is old enough that it has the metal crimp starter and final crimp die.
It will make crimps that look like factory crimps.

Yesterday I went to the range and one of my range buddies was there with a Uberti 1875 Remington single action revolver chambered in .45 Colt. It also had an extra cylinder chambered in .45 ACP. He said he said the .45 Cowboy Special fits perfectly in the .45 ACP cylinder and he was using it to fire the .45 CS. I did not know this was possible. Is it possible? Can you fire .45 CS from a .45 ACP cylinder? I keep thinking maybe I misunderstood my friend.
