    Got my mould cabinet up on the counter (had to clean the counter first!), then cast my first 45-70 bullets.

He is in Korea, he is in the Army and he said well grandma it is the 17th here. So I actually took here out today for her Korean birthday. I will also take her out tomorrow to a show and a dinner.

    Finally started working on it have the old single car garage that was turned into a dress shop before I bought the house. Ripped out the carpet and began cleaning up the concrete. In the next couple of weeks the door will come out and be replaced with a window (don't know why I need two front doors). Anyhow should have the room up and functional before spring.

    Taught my oldest daughter how to cast! She poured 20-180 gr .314 boolits to shoot in her new Mosin , I think I have her hooked.

    Nothing, but I did make up a batch of BLL in the kitchen. And then applied it to bullets in the basement.

    Thanks, Motor,

    Yes, it's a 2000 F150 4x4. After a great deal of troubleshooting and isolating the current drain to the fuse that supplies the electrics to the driver's seat, it was determined that the aftermarket seat cover getting caught on the seat adjusting button and holding it in the up position will drain the battery pretty fast. It was visible all the time but hidden in plain sight.

    Been worken on a wooden jig to help me make 300blk and did 50 to try it out (I know I could buy one but for no more than I'll need this will be fine). I think I'll do a couple hundred this weekend.

    Slugged my Mauser 7x57 mm and decided not to size boolits from a Lyman 287308, but use 'em as cast. Loaded 25 cartridges with Red Dot and 25 with IMR 4227 to try this weekend.

    Did some straightening out, putting some stuff where it goes, and minor general cleaning.
