Aye and Aye for me also. I enjoy reading Gear's posts. AggieEE
Aye to both
Can't argue with anything that's been said about either gentlemen.
Aye and aye!
There isn'ta man here who can deny Ranchdog's dedication to this addiction, or the quality of his work. I vote aye and stand behind that choice.
Gear has been extremely helpful and humble to me, which I didn't expect when I first joined as a 17 year old kid, but age or experence have never mattered, he helps guide all. Keep up the R&D and keep posting pictures Gear, we all learn from what you share.
Both men deserve this award as much as any!

And congratulations to two GENTLEMEN who have contributed so much to our world.
WE WON. WE BEAT THE MACHINE. WE HAVE CCW NOW.
From a newbie to the forum who has received personalized help from Ranchdog, (with whom I have not had any financial dealing), that went so far beyond what was expected or deserved, I can only say that I have never agreed with any idea more.
There is something weird going on with this thread.....
I would GUESS a moderator is cleaning out someones garbage they had posted here but has vanished. Good job Moderator.
Stay tuned for further posts.
WE WON. WE BEAT THE MACHINE. WE HAVE CCW NOW.
Correct Bill, garbage does NOT belong in this thread........

I'm speechless, gentlemen. This site has more than a few "giants" upon whose shoulders I've stood and the view is fantastic. I'd like to extend my own congratulations and well wishes to Michael.
Ian
Well said Ian and congratulations as well. This is quite a surprise and an honor as all I wanted to do was make a better bullet for a guy or gal that wanted to poke a lead hole through a critter, especially for the person that was new to this endeavor.
It is true, I have decided to take leave of the business to spend more time with my family and the activities that I love; casting, reloading, shooting, and hunting. I've been blessed to live a live in some great country, and I need to take advantage of it and teach my grandchildren about it (they live on the ranch).
In the meantime, I do have quite a few molds and will continue till the well goes dry. Thank each of you for your business but most of all thank you for your friendship.
Michael
I have read many very interesting and helpful posts from both of these gentlemen. After you've been here a while, I guess there are certain members you settle down and pay attention whenever you come across one of their posts, and for me this is the case for both these guys.
I am sorry to hear that Ranch Dog is winding down the business. I've only been at this for about a year and a half and already I lost out on getting the BRP molds I wanted. I rushed out quick like and ordered a TLC-460-425-RF for the Foehammer and a TLC-432-265-RF for the Browning 92, the better to smite things with.
Don't let either of these Gentlemen get to far away from their keyboards, I'm a new member & caster & still working my way through all their learned & informative posts.
When & if I ever do, I'm sure to have more questions to ask, I'm a slow learner after all.
& also as a newcomer AYE, AYE.
