  1. "New books contain good info and I do buy them but the old books contain calibers the new books drop." I've found better data from older books than new ones. Don't be afraid to ask for data, Hopefully someone will post a photo from an old book that helps a lot. I buy a powder, put a piece of white duct tape on it. Look at the burn rate chart and put it's number on the tape. Helps a lot when your older powder is removed from the chart. Easier than searching for older charts.
  2. I have 2 5 gallon buckets of 9mm brass to get rid of. Can't find a buyer for spent cases in my area. I first posted this in the reloading section. Someone thought I was running an ad and I got a warning. I posted here to clear things up.
  3. Pull down from Lake City. Dennis sold it years ago.
  4. Crappie Masters tournament out of Engineers Point yesterday. Couldn't buy a parking spot a mile from the ramp. One smoker I talked to thought the walk was going to kill him. We fished the spillway. I missed 4 at the bank, 4 out farther. My son got two 11" crappie and missed 4.
  5. Dang, I meant WC846. My notes say to use BL-C2 data at 10% less at start.
  6. Anyone work with this powder in 308 with a 150 gr SP bullet?
  7. In 2013 Midwayusa had a Black Friday sale for a month. One morning Wolf brass boxer primed 223 ammo was $259 per K. Free shipping on 5K. After placing my order I checked again, up to $329. I had to buy a rifle after they got here.
  8. I've trolled Sardis a lot in the past. 16 ft rods, Johnson Century reel for line storage. 6 jigs 1 ft apart 6 rods out front 6 out the rear. That's before rules were changed. I now kayak and use trigger spin reels. Camp at Pat's Bluff and sometimes at Clear creek so I'm close to the honey hole.
  9. hipower, the auction house had that style bench from Wren for $110. I almost bought 1.
  10. I got a cart just like the tool box I had at work. 27" wide, 48" long. Double doors, shelves behind one and drawers behind the other with 4" casters for $50. I'll add 3/4" plywood to the top for another reloading bench. It's in between chair and stool height, see which one I want to modify. Most likely a chair so I'll have arm and backrest. My son got the other one to use in his garage for tools.
  11. Fishermen are lining the spillway banks of the big 3 lakes in north MS. Some catching and some snagging. All are leaving with their limit. Tuesday I talked to a member of a face book group I'm on. His party started at Grenada early then Enid and was finishing up at Sardis before heading back to Memphis.
  12. My wife linked me to an estate sale years ago and pinned the items she wanted. I looked at all the photos, nothing I wanted. I went Saturday morning after working 11/7 Friday night. Got half of her items. Lots of reloading equipment, supplies, reloads and factory ammo all overpriced that wasn't on the link. I returned Sunday and found most was still there. Made a cheap offer and got it all.
  13. My son sent me a marketplace ad link. Metal carts $35. Some have casters on corners and some Uboat style. Some have drawers, doors or shelves. They are at Holiday Lodge on Sardis Lake, MS. I sent a message for best time to see them.
  14. No reply yet. Try to get there this weekend.
  15. American Reloading, one order was taxed and the other wasn't last month.
  16. I carried it to a local scrapyard. The guy said we don't buy ammo brass. What, I bought some 223/556 cases not to long ago. Yep, the guy got mad cause we wouldn't buy it, left it, gone before we could stop him. You got it before we could figure out what to do with it. My son said decap them, run fishing line through as many as needed for a slinky sinker.
  17. Aquila is the only 9mm cases I've found with the ring. I scrap all Aquila and Perfecta, 223/556 flash holes are off center. Don't want to find in their other calibers.
  18. Greg, all the ammo boxes that were rescued were painted blue, white tape added for load data of that box. Tape removed and trashed. Lost data.
  19. Sorry if anyone thought I was selling this brass. Going to the scrapyard for a cheap price.
  20. The manager wasn't there Saturday. I left my phone number so he can call me later.
  21. Mine is a 12X26X31" shop cart. 3/4" plywood added to the bottom frame, pistol lock box added for storage, shelves on the side. The top is 2 layers of 3/4" plywood. Lee O frame mounted to the right. Lee powder measure mounted at the left. Lee bench mount primer behind it. Lee C frame mounted on the left end. Can roll it to any room in the house and fits all chairs. A 15" wide desk cabinet, shortened with casters added. Counter top flush on front, 3/4" overhand on sides, a bit more on the rear. Door and drawer on front for storage, Lee Loadmaster mounted on the rear, Lee C frame mounted on a side.
  22. Dang, I remember buying it at gun shows for $2 per box.
  23. I'm finding some 223 cases that won't fit a shell holder. Going through some old notes I found it. A Lyman TC-38 357-FL die, sizing die with the guts removed used as a bulge buster. Use a pusher from a bullet sizing kit. Lube the cases extra well. I know you're thinking, 1 case doesn't cost much, scrap it and replace it. A quart or gallon bag or 2 full is a bit different.
  24. Not much going on here. I shoot at Sardis, MS, McLver gun range. $20 for half day noon till evening. Pistol and 100 yard rifle bays are covered and next to each other. Longer range a walk or short drive. Skeet, trap and archery areas too. I can check to see if we can set up canopies and grill for a meet.
