    Unhappy MikenBarb's wife passed.

    Just got a phone call that Mike's wife Barbara passed unexpectedly at the age of 49. 2 young children left.

    Understandably , it may take a week or more to settle down enough for Mike to be back to the computer. Please give him some room to breathe and deal with some issues, then he can come finish up current business.

    prayers sent

    That's to close to my age to not stop and reflect.
    Prayers being sent now. It would take me more than a few weeks to get back into any groove looking like normal.

    That is very sad news.

    My condolences.
    The solid soft lead bullet is undoubtably the best and most satisfactory expanding bullet that has ever been designed. It invariably mushrooms perfectly, and never breaks up. With the metal base that is essential for velocities of 2000 f.s. and upwards to protect the naked base, these metal-based soft lead bullets are splendid.

    Forget everything you know about loading jacketed bullets. This is a whole new ball game!

    Barb was the same age as my wife. We just buried my 81 yr old father two weeks ago today. As tough as that was, I can't imagine suddenly losing my wife at this point in life. Will definitely keep Mike in my prayers.
