With some time on my hands and the weekend blessed with a big honeydo, toay I drove out to the lead mine.
This place is beautiful, locked members only gate, every hundred yards or so there is a berm where 1800 paying people sit back with their rifles and gleefully inject lead day in and day out.
One bullet goes in the berm, and two get dug out by the impact.
I pulled up this morning at 9Am the sun was shining and nobody was there!
Drove out to 300 meters where big ole nuggets spit from 45 cal rifles just sit on top of the ground.
Got about a gallon and a half before another shooter showed up.
So out came the stapler and a target, got some nice 3" groups at 300 and every time I went out to mark the target another handfull of those hefty tin containing nuggets.
Went home with a little over two gallons.
