    Williamwaco..................

    http://castboolits.gunloads.com/memb...66-williamwaco

    I have it on good authority, that Williamwaco has passed.
    Truly a Gentleman, a scholar, loving husband and father.
    From what I understand, he made a great run in life and enjoyed much success.
    He earned the privilege of passing quietly in his sleep, at home.

    He'll be sorely missed.

    Sorry to hear that. Mainly a lurker on this site and he will be sadly missed. He's in my prayers.

    Peace

    Always seem like a true gentleman. R.I.P. Bill.

    William was a true gentleman and holder of great knowledge about casting and reloading in general. Several sites across the net were blessed by his presence and willingness to share that knowledge. He will be missed. Rockydog.

    Sorry to hear that. He was always a class act, just the facts, and good ones, too.
    I give loading advice based on my actual results in factory rifles with standard chambers, twist rates and basic accurizing.
    My goals for using cast boolits are lots of good, cheap, and reasonably accurate shooting, while avoiding overly tedious loading processes.
    The BHN Deformation Formula, and why I don't use it.
    How to find and fix sizing die eccentricity problems.
    Do you trust your casting thermometer?
    A few musings.

    I wholeheartedly agree.
    ...and I just found out he had a website, that is chock full of articles and reports of his experiences in reloading/casting and such.
    RIP Bill.
