and cut off the steel handle to use for pan lubbing my .357 boolits(Lee 125 gr RNFP from a six cavity mold). I had cast a bunch up two weeks ago. So I got a hot plate and some pie pans. Used some Speed Green in it . Cut the handle off and polished the inside with a rotary grinder(Dremel) to give me .360. Thats what they drop as and I load them without sizing.:drinks:
Cut the end plug off and push about 25 in before I up-end it into the boolit container.

What are you going to do for a sand wedge now? Your pitch wedge doesn't have bounce to the heel.

Remember- A golf course is a waste of a good rifle range.

Or an outstanding future one. Golf has been on the decline since the mid '00s.

We use golf balls hung on string as tie breakers at our pistol matches. When hit with a 10mm they seem to just disappear.

I've not only done the same thing with an old club, but just last week I drilled a solid core golf ball and pressed in a cutter from one of my Lee case trimmers. No more blisters while trimming cases.

Can't imagine a better use of a golf club.

I read somewhere about cutting a club shaft and filing a step into the edge to make a full moon clip unloading tool. That would have to be a close second...

Indeed!

Fortunately, I've never owned a golf club, so I used a piece of PVC pipe. Installed a plastic cap on the end, and made it long enough to hold 6 cases.

A friend said "I can hit a golf ball 250 yds." To which I answered "me too, but I can hit a golf ball AT 250 yds." He looked at me funny. I didn't explain. Just let him fester...
