    New to the forum. I am currently subscribed in several other forums. From what I can tell this one has the most particapation. I spent about 3 hours last night reading threads, and I like what I see. So far this site seems the most user friendly. Hope I don't upset anyone as I see a number of familure alias's from other forums.
    My hobbies are shooting first, shooting cheaply second, ie cast bullets. My passion is casting or molding bullets, and have been doing so for 38 years along with reloading. I like to shoot in the cowboy shoots, main matches and long range.
    The cheap shooting thing is getting harder to do as most of you know.

    Welcome to the forum. Good bunch here with a lot of casting experience. I've often said if you have an idea on casting, toss it out here and someone has either done it, is doing it or wants to and will help you with it.

    As in any formum, the more you put in, the more you get out of it.

    Again, welcome./beagle

    Most of us still pretend we are saving money, too, as we keep setting up group buys for new molds.... Welcome!

    Thank you all, and thank you RunRiverRun for the forum jargon on the thread thing.

    This is the best forum I've found. The guys here seem more like friends, though I've never met any of them. There is much less antagonism here and that makes for a good read.
