well I been here in korea for a little over 9 months (almost outta here thank god) I been lookin around here and there picking up what lead I could. I had some luck at the tire shops around. not much but any bit I can get helps.
I used sardine/ beer cans and caps ( no shortage of them around the barracks) and melted it up on a hot plate with a coffee can. now if i just had some of my molds here. 67365

I swear casters and reloaders have to be some of the most resourceful people alive.
Thanks for sharing

Are you going to have a problem with your luggage being overweight when you ship home??

AC, enjoy your time in Korea. I was there in 97-98, and as I look back on it, it was the nicest place the Army has ever sent me.

They still got Camp Red Cloud over there?
Carry a scar over my right eye from a fun filled trip up and down hooker hill.
Made it to the top and all the way down and started back up when I finally took a nose dive.
Lots of good memories from being there. Best one is when I stepped off the plane in Seoul.
Damn but it stunk!!! My buddies warned me about it but I didn't believe them.

Be careful and hope you make it home safely.
