    My condolences to you and your family.
    The solid soft lead bullet is undoubtably the best and most satisfactory expanding bullet that has ever been designed. It invariably mushrooms perfectly, and never breaks up. With the metal base that is essential for velocities of 2000 f.s. and upwards to protect the naked base, these metal-based soft lead bullets are splendid.
    John Taylor - "African Rifles and Cartridges"

    Forget everything you know about loading jacketed bullets. This is a whole new ball game!

    My thoughts are with you. Lost mine from a aneurism at 83 a year ago Oct. I think of him often. I also called my dad "Pop" however I really don't know why but I've noticed that my son at 20 years old has started to call me Pop. May your memory's of your "Pop" be as fond as mine are of my Friend and Father "My Pop"

    So sorry for your loss. Sending a prayer, asking for the Lord's comfort for you and all those left behind.

    What lies behind us and what lies before us are tiny matters compared to what lies within us.

    "Political correctness is a doctrine, fostered by a delusional, illogical minority, and rapidly promoted by an unscrupulous mainstream media, which holds forth the proposition that it is entirely possible to pick up a turd by the clean end." ...Unknown

    Very sorry for your loss. My Dad passed in '05 at 87. Had a dream just the other day where he visited me, woke up feeling a bit comforted. You're in our prayers.

    My prayer to you and your family. I lost my father (GARCIA was his handle here) last May at the age of 57. Way too young, same as your father. I find myself talking to him when I'm alone in the gun room cleaning or when its quiet. I continue to miss him daily.

    Prayers sent.
