I usually trade a 5 gallon bucket of beer on ice for a bucket of wheel weights... But I'd still say that $50 is a fair price in many areas.

I just want to know where all of the free lead is... I did manage to get a 5 gallon bucket the other day in trade for a 12 pack of dos equis beer on ice in a 5 gallon bucket... Traded my bucket for...

Must be nice... If I can find them around here these days, they're going for over $30 per thousand... Have resorted to ordering 10,000 + at a time on line; a little less than I get them local, even...

I've shot some boolits that I loaded back around the late 80's or early 90's after they had been "stored" for 12-13 years. I say "stored" because they spent many of those years in a south Georgia...

I try to cast most mine in the winter months, that would be Dec and Jan here in South Texas; ok, maybe Nov - Feb some years.. Sept is time to get spun up for Bow season! Bow season for deer opens...

That makes at least 4... I've never cleaned a pocket, did have a batch of Winchester SP primers that 2 or 3 out of every hundred just wouldn't go bang once. I don't buy Winchester primers anymore...

The only indoor range that I've ever been to happens to be in San Antonio (about 4 years ago) and you had to purchase all ammo from them at a ridiculous price; ammo wasn't anything special, just high...

The family and I have put 10s of thousands of rounds (boolits) down range with 3 different Glock 19s. We are using aftermarket barrels (Lonewolf), but have sent quite a few through the factory...

I've always had great luck with Wolf primers, many (if not most) sent down range by a Glock.

Had bought a batch of 5000 Winchester small pistol primers last year and had a failure of about 1 in every hundred... I've never had that problem before or after. Was probably just a bad batch or...

Bought one brand new back in the 80's on a military base (actually it was a Christmas gift from the wife)... Paid about a $100 bucks. Although these are good solid and reliable guns I don't think...

Discovered that the hopper on my Dillon was empty after just reloading 500 rounds; had no idea when it ran out of powder and had to pull all of the boolits. Won't let that happen again, now I...

Yep, we're only talking about once fired brass... No powder here.

Didn't know where else to post this so seeing that this where I spend most of my time, I figured this would work. There was a "high level" meeting last week between DoD and the NRA regarding the...

Carry everywhere I go except to work (can't carry on federal property); wouldn't leave home without one. No more kids at home so I always have one in the chamber on the nightstand in the bedroom. ...
