    If you hunt use the dot. But everything for the original sights should be there. Just find a sight.

    I am stupid and do not know how the junk does not rise to the top. Lead is heavy so it makes no sense. But I am happy you seen it. But it will return.

    You will see zinc, looks like a galvanized rain gutter. I have some pure contaminated with it. I do not know how, just lead cable sheathing. 600° and skim removes almost all.

    Fear is real. Going to KICK. It is why I teach backwards, heavy first until they see it does not hurt, then smaller guns. Give a guy a .357 with .38 loads and then go full .357. What will he do?
