[QUOTE="TeamTomlyn, post: 4089756, member: 46099"] Finally ran out of excuses and got the chamber cast this weekend. Had so much fun I did it twice; then it became not so much fun lol. First round I was smart and made a tinfoil funnel into the chamber and meticulously poured it right up to the rim area. The foil messed up the rim measurement but the casting slid right out with a little pull of the tinfoil. Matches SAMMI specs perfectly for 45-70 Gov. So I figure "Super Nitro" stand for Modern Smokless/Ruger #1 loads. That went so well I decided to pour another casting and hopefully get the rim too. Well I got it AND filled the space between the barrel and receiver; effectively locking the casting in place lol. So now I have one chore done and another to do before I get to this toy to the range. LMAO thank goodness for low melting points [/QUOTE]
