That Lee hand press has intrigued me, especially now that the Lyman 310 tong tools are getting scarcer -- and I don't know when I will be able to set up a loading bench again. Useful critters. I haven't even started on the new reloading room yet. Going to fire up the Hand press for another batch of...

I should probably stay out of this one, since y'all know know how the last one turned out, but I think you have a great idea there Scott. I would go more and more over the top every year thinking that my ex grew up with nothing and hadn't really ever made all that much, so I made it my job to make ...

I'll have to try the 270s, but you've gotten me hooked on the 300 grain bullets in the .45 Colt from an earlier post. A 300 gr. WNFPGC from Matt's bullets and the Hornady 300 XTP have both shot really well for me. Especially my Miroku '73.

I'll get the winds out here on the Great Plains of western OH, but I'll be surprised if I get any snow. Every year I start sounding more and more like my dad, complaining about being cold. After working outside for a couple of decades and not minding it, I'm just too beat up for it anymore. :D jb 8)

Happy Birthday! Hope it's a good one!

Love the snow, but not enough to live on the East Side. :D While it's snowing and blowing on your end, 80 miles or so WSW of you, the sun is out, but it's been stupid cold for this time of year. I was out on a fire loss yesterday and told the contractor that I wanted the place winterized. The looked...

Anymore at our age with almost 50 years together, I just give my wife an Amazon gift card and let her choose what she wants to buy. My attempts at surprises usually get returned. Problem is that she was a single mother for so many years on a teacher’s salary. So she simply won’t spend money on hers...

I sold the early Delta I had. It had been bubba'd too much and didn't really trust it. The 10mm obsession is still screaming away though, still want one of the long slide Glocks to go with the new Ruger LC carbine I bought last month. So far my favorites to shoot are the Smith M&P and my Blackha...

Wasn't thrilled about spending my birthday alone, so I went looking for something to do. Just so happened that my favorite shop had a brand new Delta Elite in the Colt case looking for a new home. :D Haven't shot it yet, the artic air set in early so I didn't want the first time out to be shaking al...

Cool! The .32-20 is one of my all time favorites! First Winchester I ever bought is a Model 92 in .32WCF and also the cartridge that got me into handloading. No one around here had even heard of it, except one guy at a local shop that had one box of ammo for it. I burnt through that first 50 rounds ...

My snubbie is one of the Taylor's Hickock's. I pack it in my front pocked around the yard. It's a real hoot loaded with

Sorry Jason but the house looks great! I almost married one that threatened to sue me for custody of MY dog after we broke up !

Having that behind you is quite valuable if you ask me. I know you didn’t ask me but what she said was so darn cold. I appreciate the thought though.

Bill, I bought this Tayor's "Hickok" about a year ago. Great trigger and I was surprised by its accuracy. Loaded with .45 Cowboy Specials, it's an absolute Hoot! Probably the lease expensive single action I own. jb 8) Jason, do you reload the .45 Cowboy Special cartridge? What is your fav...

That's just vindictive as heck! We split ownership if the dogs. I have my two little guys and she kept the lab mix and the Jack Russell. The JRT is Quentin's dog really and follows him everywhere. No way I'd ever break them up. They're both almost 15 and wouldn't adapt to the new place well. Too man...

Final hearing was this morning.

Twenty years gone in 20 minutes. Sad.

All good though. Grandpa used to say, there's always another pretty girl right around the corner.
Spending my time working on the new place and making it mine.
Just got the siding done. Turned out quite well.

AIM Surplus here in southwest OH has these and more (you can look up their website) Smifs, Glocks, Berettas, Jerichos(!) and more. Better prices too. We're in a golden age of police trade-ins. Back in '86 a young guy just out of the USAF bought an interesting new polymer handgun, a Glock 17. Worked...

Diggin' that '66 too! One has been on my list for some time, but I'm so fond of my Win. '73 I don't want to ignore it with a new .45 Colt carbine.

I picked up a Ruger LC this morning and the SDS 10mm about a month ago. Just happened to bring home a steel 55gal. drum that needed to be ventilated for use as a new burn barrel. :D The 180 gr. FMJ FP 10mms zipped right through both sides of the barrel and both sides of the old shed that still needs...

Scott, I've found the results to be very similar with my little Bearcat. I've been packing it around the new place waiting for a target of opportunity, but haven't even seen so much as a starling that I offed. I do shoot it a lot more at the cabin with Quentin and his Wrangler I bought him a few yea...

Mighty handsome sixgun, Jason. Hope your can conclude your quest soon. 8) Thanks Guys!

Another replacement from the Great Purge and the months spent in the hospital. This one took a while. A 44 magnum Bisley with the short 4.6" barrel. It's an uncommon combination and the one I had I'd special ordered from a dealer that had told me at the time that it was an 'uncatalogued version...

Cool! I was looking at one at a show a few years ago and put it down. Went back to look again and it was gone.

The Springfields have been coming down. Competition from Girsan and other importers. Quality on those varies quite a bit, but an optics-ready with a rail does looking interesting. Jason, I bet the SA-35 feels great. Eliminating the magazine disconnect does wonders for the trigger pull. Happy to see...

Made a little time today to shoot a couple of 9mms I've had for a few months and haven't had the time to shoot. Both pistols preferred the the 124 gr Winchester JFPs over the Federal 147s.

Many, many years ago, by dad and I ran into to a guy that was liquidating the collection of a small museum in western NY. Rochester if I remember correctly.

These two early .44 Magnums will shoot like that w/ a .430 LSWCGC and 10.5 gr. Unique. One of them was worked over by someone that knew what he was doing. Very smooth and a fantastic trigger. That one started the Vaquero obsession a few years ago. I went through about a dozen, but kept these two, a ...
