Nice looking load of lead. I like the size of .432" for both the .44 mag and the .444.

Don't worry about getting older and still doing stupid stuff. You'll do the stupid stuff as always, only much slower. Hold my beer and watch this.......

That's about the going rate on those Al.
Both 12 and 20ga., the last few times I've checked, $33.95 + tax of course. :roll:
I have at least a 10 boxes of each that I bought year before last at $22.99 plus tax. ;)
Did very little shotgunning last yr.
Now if we can just get some 410's to show up. :o
Not that I'm really hurting, I just like to know they are there if I need a few. ;)

I had my neighbor check in Greeley if he was at Walmart. Nothing there. This ammo thing I think really depends on what part of the country you are in. Down here in Texas at the local Walmarts there is 12ga ammo all over the place. Limited quantities of 20 ga and what we have found is about 8 to 10 100 packs. Cant load it for that. 22LR is stuffed in every lockable glass case available at Walmarts. I havent seen this much 22 in quite some time

Shotshells were hit and miss most of the summer, but have become a little more regular of late.
And yes 22lr has been plentiful for quite some time.

*89.99 a case on Target Sports today for 20ga and free shipping. I cant load them for that. .36 each before tax. Also Id like to know from you 9mm reloaders how much is it costing you to load them. I see them for .23 a round can you beat that by enough to justify reloading them

Loading up some Matt's 250 gr. full wadcutters in .44 Special with that 5 gr. of Red Dot which works well in the short barrel revolvers.
Mean looking things!

Nice loads Forty. That sheriff's badge adds some distinction to them as well!! 8-)

Loaded 20 rounds of 7mm-08 Rem. test loads with 120 gn Sierra pro hunter, over IMR 4350, 45.3 gn, plus some .3 gn below and some .3 gn above. Also some with same bullet with 43.3 gn of Varget. Time to venture into the snow and try 'em out.
