talking to an old friend who's considering getting into prepping in general and reloading/casting in particular.
Gonna give him some examples tomorrow to whet his appetite.

Think i may have made a couple converts at the range the other day also. It wasn't so much the groups that got em, but the whole time i was shooting there was a lot of comments about how leaded the bbl. would be when i quit.
After about 30 rounds through a 35 whelen i stopped and ran a wet patch and 1 dry patch through and showed them a shiny bore....lots of surprised people.
After that they just wanted to know cost per round, where do you get the lead, what about moulds, etc. etc. I love it when that happens.
Good on you for taking the time to get your friend going!
