Re: RR's favorite caliber
Got 91 more, yeah 91 cases primed and run through the Neck expander die.
So all they need is a little powder and a chunk of lead shoved in 'em.
Got the 44's out of the tumbler, and loaded back with some 41 mag and a few 35 Rem.

PT7 brought me some 45 Colt brass today, so tomorrow it's decapping and tumbling day. Maybe this weekend we'll crank out some 250gr/Unique boolits!
Thanks for the inspiration!

Powers Booth, rest his soul, was a great actor! My first impression, erie as it was, is the Jim Jones cult movie. "Jim Jones Massacre " maybe ?RanchRoper wrote:Rifletom wrote:Must be something in the air. Loaded up 50 more .45 Colt and same for .357. Bloody Mary, huh? Hmm. Sounds good.
