+!, I have the M4 version of that money bullet and it shoots very well in my Browning BPCR .

Personally I'd pass on it, especially on large amounts. A few years ago I dumped over 16 lbs of surplus 4895 on my lawn that had gone bad before I had time to use it and I wasn't the only one in my...

Merry Christmas to you also. You must be from Southern Finland since you used the term "y'all". :)

I'm using a Model B Thumbler to make mine. I was using hard lead balls, but recently made up some lead filled .308 cases with the ends peened over to try.

I agree 100%. I had several transactions that went well, but one that I consider the seller a very dishonest individual. I got no satisfaction from the Gunbroker staff.

4064 without a doubt. I had also worked up a load with H414 that shot very well, but on a prairie dog hunt I suddenly started missing shots. I gave the barrel a good cleaning and the accuracy...

Dang, both sides of my family settled in The Colony in the 1840's to 1850's time frame and now I see this! Too bad we didn't stay. ;)

Excellent observation, definitely a good indication of a good seal in the bore.

I've got through more jugs of that than I can remember when I was chasing my Distinguished with an M1A. Unfortunately I had to fertilize the yard with my last two 8 pounders that went bad. Be sure...

Exactly how I make mine. The pet cedar works well.

Same here for barrel clamping. it sure doesn't require much as my container is almost full after 30+ years.

The milk jug plastic works well, I've been using it as a separator for a couple of years.

I thought full auto was lots of fun.....as long as Uncle Sam was furnishing the ammo. I couldn't afford to feed one of those for very long on my retirement.

I agree. Haz-Mat would be expensive and requires a special license. Perhaps advertise on Zia's site.

Double AMEN to that. I certainly recall how I felt away from home in 'Nam during the hollidays. I pray they stay safe and return home safely to their loved ones.

Having to work in the winter outside certainly can suck when it's dark and the wind is howling. That said, in my younger years I thrived on hunting in some weather that I would now rate as...
