    Today is my 50th Birthday! What did my sweetie get me?

    Today is the big 50. My sweetie got me an ingot mold, a Lee Quick Trim with dies for 38sp, 357Mag, 45ACP and 45Colt, a RCBS Hand Primer and a Marlin Model 60 22lr which we are going to play with in a bit along with the Taurus 45ACP I bought myself last week as a present to myself.

    Great Birthday so far!

    Congrats and happy birthday! I'm a big fan of the Lee trimmer system, dunno how that little Zip Trim has lasted thru so many thousands of rounds. Have fun with your new toys!

    Sigh . . . I can remember my 50th birthday but it was over a decade ago! Sounds like you had a great one and also sounds like you have a terrific wife! Every day is a blessing and it sounds like you have a great partner to share them with. Enjoy those new toys and a Happy Belated Birthday!

    I remember my 50th, I think. Or was it 60th or 70th? Heck they're all a blur. Come to think of it, it's all a blur, it went by so fast.
