    First casts of the Summer

    Finally finished the first batch of the summer. Got a few hundred each done. .9mm, 38, 40, and 45.


    Last of the .45's


    All done.

    Now I need to pump out a few more batches as I get time this summer. I always try to get enough to last the season. Still have to do some .30 cal rifle as well.

    Summer? I've still got 6 inches of snow on the ground in most of my yard. Hopefully most of that will be gone by the end of today though. Boolits look good. I'm waiting on some lube to be delivered and then I'm going on a serious casting spree myself.

    I'm so backward from most of you guys. My garage is heating up and soon it will be too hot to work before 10pm with the door open and multiple fans running. My garden that has been producing veggies since Thanksgiving is starting to die from the heat. Snow???? Haven't witnessed the white stuff since I moved down here after college. I may even have to put an ice pack on the luber to keep it from leaking!

    I have to make all my ingots and preferably all my boolits when it is cool enough (barely) to wear long clothes for safty reasons.

    Nice boolits by the way

    I still have 1/2 a 5 gal bucket of WW's to clean up yet too. Down to my last 20 or so lbs of ingots from the last WW melt. Called a contact today to see about getting a line on some more. Competition is tough around here for WW's.
