Marshal Stockburn and his Deputies in Pale Rider shoot Colt Richards (like mine) and Colt Richards-Mason (like BigAl's). Of course...it didn't help them, Clint killed them all.

RR, love that movie, probably watched it a dozen times. Love
Josey Wales too. Wish they still made stuff like that.
Clint has a habit of killing a lot of folks.

Haven't done anything "on" the bench ( yet ), but did order 100 more Hornady .458 300gr JHP bullets, from Midsouth Shooters.
What with the Corona thing, don't have any idea when they'll get here, but Midsouth will give it their best shot. Always got good
speedy service from them.

Another beautiful day here in AZ, 90 degrees, 12% humidity and the Saguaro's are starting to bloom

As always, had to start the day by making those jugs Jump !

Down to business, tested the 180 grain Missouri Bullet Strikers that were recommended from the Henry. 20 rounds at 40 yards with 26fps extreme spread, and 20 rounds at 80 yards with 35 fps extreme spread

I am really happy with the 180's out of of the Henry, and very pleased with the Extreme Spread. I am happy with 50 FPS E/S, 35 in my book is outstanding, and 26 does not happen too often. Just placed another order for the 180's.

Yep that 180 load is a good one! Finally getting around to cleaning the three revolvers I had out earlier this week.
They had a bit of pizza on them! :lol:
With rain moving in for Monday thru Thursday will reload more .38 and .357 ammo.
