This elist is for the discussion of all aspects of the making and shooting of bullets which are CAST LEAD in any firearms whether the firearm is made for black powder or smokeless. This may include bumping or swaging bullets which are CAST. NO discussion of jacketed bullets is allowed as that is to take place on BULLETSWAGING or RELOAD-L. Blackpowder load discussions are on the BP-L elist.
The BP-L and the CB-L lists are the same, except BLACKPOWDER is discussed on the BP-L list, faux/sugar based "BP" and smokeless are on the CB-L.
Do NOT post discussions about BlackPowder usage on this list!!! Normal rules of netiquette apply. Contact listowner at chasm@texas.net.

This list, as it has been since its inception in 1999, is and has been the UNOFFICIAL elist of the CBA and all members of this list are encouraged to join that organization. Most of the officers of the CBA belong to this list and can be contacted by posting questions about the organization, etc thru this list.
_PHOTO_ This is my casting stand which was made by Bo Clerke, the barrel maker in Raton, NM. He used it for years and gave it to me about 2000. It is a gas water heater element which sounds like a jet engine when the propane is turned on. It will heat a cubic foot of lead in a pot in about 20 minutes and that will handle a lot of Rowell Ladle poured bullets or ingots. regards, chas.
