I had an aunt give me some $$$ for Christmas and had my Dad take me to Harveys Pawn. Bought a Lee loader in 30/06, a box of primers (100 seemed like a lot then),a box of 150 grn Sierra bullets and a # of IMR4064. This all occured in
1960-61. I still have the empty can. Plus the first can of 2400,Unique and Green Dot. I get warm fuzzys just holding the first ones.......Who would have thought I'd still be doing the same things 50+ years later.
BTW,An M-1 carbine and a press with dies came next year. Casting boolits to feed the hungry beast came that same year.......I got checked by the sheriff soon after as I had found a "flash hider" and a couple 30 round mags. It looked "evil" to someone as I rode my bicycle the 2-3 miles thru town to go shoot.........try that today!
