No.

Beautiful sunny day in MI. 95° 65% humidity. 6 shooters at the start. Ron Bush won 100y and Grand Agg. Tim Bassham won 200y.

Back to the old way. Funny. Git some....

Isn't that the degree of sun burn, where your skin falls off?

Did you shut down the PM????

btt

Well, that is good news.

Ok. After thinking about it. I got too deep into the WOODS. Sorry about that. All done.

Ok. Another nugget. Matt Dardas used to make pistol bullets on machines. He had his own source for lead and his formula for the lube. A club in Ohio. Would order 100,000 45 SWC every January for years. Not sure of the weight. And I have met several people that shot Matt's bullets and swear by...

Then you have to add antimony and tin. But, to what quantities???? Ever hear of a BR shooter using Sierra bullets during competition???? I have used them to fire form....

I think it's more of an imbalance thing. Lowell always told me to get lead from one source. I got most of my cores from Charlie Hood. So I believe Charlie gets from same source. I remember Wilbur had a good story. I think he was talking with/about Jeff Fowler and bullets. They got together and...
