    Welcome!! Just a warning, but it may be difficult to convice some people that you are "saving money" by casting your own. Mine doesn't mind it. Says it makes it easier to find me. Enjoy!

    The solid soft lead bullet is undoubtably the best and most satisfactory expanding bullet that has ever been designed. It invariably mushrooms perfectly, and never breaks up. With the metal base that is essential for velocities of 2000 f.s. and upwards to protect the naked base, these metal-based soft lead bullets are splendid.

    Forget everything you know about loading jacketed bullets. This is a whole new ball game!

    Not in the clinical sense.

    If you remember the "Crocodile Dundee" movie, they were at a party when the subject of "shrinks" came up. Mic (Dundee) said Australians didn't need shrinks. They had "mates" with whom they could share their failures and successes. I think that's what we are here. Mates. And I've never come across a better bunch of "mates" since I left the Navy.

    Thanks, all.
