    UPS delivery today

    I'm sitting good on primers but I really needed this.

    Waiting for me when I got home from work.

    Last jug of BE86 lasted almost 2 years. I have recently started loading for 223 and 308 with my cast bullets, I'll be trying 2400 in both. I've loaded 357 and 44 mag with 2400 for years. I was down to less than half a pound of 2400.

    2400 works well with cast in the .308 Winchester, as well as of course the .44 magnum.
    It's all chicken, even the beak!

    Back when this Carona stuff just started up the wife turns to me and says, do you have enough powder to load for everything that you have? Of course I said no... So she says why don't you handle that.
    It took about a week and a half before that wonderful brown truck came down the driveway ��

    Nice batch of powder there lar45. I've found many good loads with AA#5, nice powder.

    I'll be loading up some 308 with Lee's C309-170-F and the 2400 tomorrow morning. Gonna take them out and toss 'em through the chronograph at 200 yards on Sunday morning.

    You are going to like it in the 308. One of mine likes 160 gr RNGC's with about 19 gr of 2400.
