The brown truck stopped by by yesterday, dropped off my Midway order.

44mag dies
500 44mag Starlines
4-20 pot(companion for the Mag20 dipper)
2 banger mold(TL) in 44mag
6 banger mold(TL) in 45ACP
other tidbits

I learned a valuable lesson shortly after package arrival. That Starline brass will hurt you. Never, never open up a virgin box in good light without sunglasses on.

I can see a little bit better this morning! :cool:

dropped as in water dropped.....Rhythm was better with the bottom pour pot than the fish cooker, ladle and 2 qt. goodwill castiron pot.

I used to keep a 20oz bottle of moonshine on my bench as a general purpose solvent:mrgreen:

It wasn't fit to drink but would thin paint, remove sharpie from ammo boxes, dissolve powder residue and burn anything you wanted....

Label read: "All purpose cleaner"

Moonshine is supposed to be ethanol, but I have heard of some that had a bit of methanol in it. Drinking the ethanol type can affect the size of your groups temporarily. Drinking the methanol containing stuff can affect your group size permanently.

The lady that drives the brown truck in my neighborhood is slightly peaved at me. Last time she was here she had a package that required a signature. We have a small male dog that is very friendly and thinks that everyone that comes to the house is really there to visit him. I answered the door and tried to open it just enough to accept the electronic signature thing but it was too much and the dog made it out to her. She started petting the dog and the dog got excited and pee'ed on her shoe. It took her a moment to realize what had happened and she got a very unhappy look on her face, handed me my package and I grabed the dog and she left in a hurry.
Oh well, I hope that was the worst thing that happened to her that day.
