    Fun range day with the wife.

    Lit off 300 rounds with the wife droping steal at 20 yards. One day i will do a latter test to develop loads for the 9mms. As long as they drop steal plates at 20 yards i am un no hurry to add that project.

    Tested out a load for my new .357 Mag Ruger Convertible. Exceptional accurate first try. Lee 358-158-rf sized to .358 lubed with simple and a couple PC over 1cc of 2400. Accuracy was better than my 9mm loads.

    After wards scavenged for lead, shells and cases. Now i am smelting over 100 pounds rang scraps lead. Its a good day as i lounge out side.

    The range scraps will be alloyed with a touch of sulfur.

    The wife's smelly good candles have hidden pixie dust with magical qualities. Makes good flux. Thats why I steal them. She has thousands of smelly good candles. The down side is if caught, but worth it. Gives her a reason to buy more.

    You need to wash those feet or the better half may not allow you to walk across her nice clean floors.
