Stop me !!!!!!!!

[white eagle]

OK
somebody stop me
I just got in from casting more boolits :Fire:
like I didn't already have enough bout 200 more 45 cal's probably have 700 or so 44 cal's cast
I have yet another mold on order have bough 100+#'s of lead form varies sources
when will this madness end
Thats all I think about all I want to do
Sorry for venting but I do feel better now I am off to sort boolits :castmine:

[HORNET]

You think somebody on THIS site is going to stop you? Only if they can figure out way to walk off with all your lead...Plumbum junkies, every one of 'em.....Worse than crackheads....
P.S. If you can keep track of how many you've cast, you don't have enough.

[Muddy Creek Sam]

White Eagle,

Wait till you have more lead than you have space, Have to spend all your time smelting to fit it in a finite space.

Sam :D

[Trey45]

That's a good start, but you don't have enough if you measure the amount you have on hand by counting them. When you start telling us you have 100 pounds of 45's cast and another hundred pounds of 44's cast, then you have a valid reason to slow down your casting, until then you're fine, keep casting, have fun, stay safe!

Oh, by the way, the madness never ends, it ramps up as you begin buying more molds, just wait till you start buying molds for calibers you don't even own!

[Blammer]

I had to build a 4 layer shelf 4' wide 3' deep to hold all my casted boolits, and I'm already out of room!

it'll stop when you run out of lead or space, which ever comes first.

[Crusty Deary Ol'Coot]

WAit until you move sometime and must move all of your lead stash!

:wink:You mean the 300#'s of lead I just got is only the beginning?
What have I gotten myself into..........again

300#, Your taking baby steps. :holysheep

Sam :D

300#, Your taking baby steps. :holysheep

Sam :D

Gotta start somewhere:smile:

[Harter66]

Boy tell me!!

This is a full blown addition ! We went on vacation 6 days in LA ,I came home with 15# of curbed wheel weights , and started to drool when I saw that 4 ozer on then shuttle bus. I've about 50-60# of boolits in 9 cal.and 500# of ready or soon to be ready ingots and that much more in misc.shot . To top it off I've figured out how to get paid to keep feeding the range scrap pile.

This can't be healthy !

[Crusty Deary Ol'Coot]

Unloading some WW from the back of my son's pickup a few days ago, and the son said, "you can't have too many Wheel Weights!"

A few 8# jugs of powder, some thousands of primers, a goodly supply of usable brass an the obamanation will hate me until I'm dead an gone.

You hear the left wing liberal media talking about so an so who was arrested and had "X" number of firearms and heaven forbid, 132 rounds of ammo.

Daaaaaaaa, those stupid people would flat out die if they knew the facts, the real facts.

An Oooooooooo NO!!!!!!!!!!, he makes his own boolits, what is this world com'in to?

Keep em coming!

[captaint]

Isn't this fun??? Every time I see a plastic container with a lid I say to my wife "whaddya think??". She says I know, boolits... It's great!! enjoy Mike

[enfield]

time for an intervention.

[RP]

Cast until your out of lead then get more lead smelt and start casting agian oh work in some shooting thats fun too.

[dragonrider]

Ya right, we're gonna stop ya. :drinks:

[waksupi]

300# is considered OUT! I'd get the quivers if I got below 1000#!

[casterofboolits]

A whole 100 pounds?

Wait till you really get the bug! :lovebooli

There's 250#s of ingots on my smelting table. A 5 gal bucket of weights and 450 pounds of lead pipe are on the way this weekend. Plus a couple tons of range lead in buckets taking up half of my 24'x32' floor space.:groner:

[home in oz]

Your next goal should be to have six banger molds.

THEN you can do some castin'!

[Gee_Wizz01]

WAit until you move sometime and must move all of your lead stash!

Keep em coming!

Crusty Deary Ol'Coot:castmine:

Been there done that! Don't ever want to do it again! However, I am addicted, need more lead, more boolits more, more, more!

300#, Your taking baby steps. :holysheep

Sam :D

Watch out for Sam he's the Pusher Man! That isotope alloy pours sooooo nice, gotta have some more.

[mold maker]

It's too blamed hot to smelt, but sweat just cleans the range lead as I pick it off the berms. I've got 16+ gal of sweat washed range lead, 153 lbs of flattened pipe and 18 gal of sorted WW, waiting for cooler weather, so I can add it to the tons I already have in ingots.
I cast under the carport till the 90+ temps run me inside, where I sort the boolits into gal paint cans.
You better get it out of your system fast. There is no cure and the addition only gets worse.
I've been trying to stop for over 40 years and each time I see a WW I get the fever again. It take restraint to keep from carrying pliers through the WalMart parking lot.
I had no problem giving up women, booze and coffin nails, but this is tough.

Howdy G,

Anytime, Going [smilie=2: to get about 1400# or so on Monday.[smilie=1::roll:

Heeheee, NOOB. just wait a few years, you'll look back on yourself now and think: I could have DONE something with my life, but NO, I just had to chase that silver stream, living from one casting session to the next, smelting in the backyard at midnight, digging wheel weights out of the gutter sludge at busy intersections on your lunch break......

The bad part is, from where you are right now, you might think I'm kidding.

[crabo]

You should start worrying when you have 300# of molds.

[cajun shooter]

The time to worry is when that 300 lbs has been cast into bullets, sized, lubed and loaded. You look around and see no lead nothing but stacks of ammo and you say Oh my God!! I have got to get more lead so that I may load.
