I shore like loadin' that 777 on my SDB and makin' APP shotshells on my MEC 600 jr

MM ya really need to try FCD at Mason Dixon, Va State & NC State....

Well maybe I'll giver a try this weekend at Pungo and if that works I might do NC State as FCD but if I wuz to ask Chuckaroo to change anything else he'd probably ban me from comin.  First we had ta cancel MD State and then I had ta change Trina's catagory for MDS.   Also that smoky stuff cost allot more to shoot.

Wahoooooo LTL Rstr - it's a looking that way.

MM - I shoot 38's and can bring some APP loaded ammo with me for you to try at Pungo.

I also have stocked up on APP 2F and will give you a bottle to get started.

I shoot both true black and substitutes, course when the substitutes run out - I'll switch to all holy black.

I'll go ahead and bring the 38 ammo- you can at least try it.

Trina has already crossed over to the Dark Side.  I'm entertaining the ideal of doing it at least part time.  Gona shoot Pungo this Saturday with the smoky stuff.

Havin ammo isn't a problem.  I got 1000 rounds of .38 loaded with 777 2f and 150 rounds loaded with Pyrodex so we got plenty of ammo.

I bought Schuetzen - German BP from Grafs for 12.00 a pound

That was their normal price - could have gotten it for less had I bought a case.

Sleep I am goin ta plan on being thar and will try ta drag Arcey along wit me.  ::)

Arcey I will talk to you at Wakefield about gittin some stuff from Circle Fly. 

Gittin scarry the price of stuff for those of use loading our own.   :o  Forturately I am still working through about 150 lbs of lead I got from a friend.  Boat ballist.  Lead shot aint cheap though.

Marshal it must be possible to git Goex cheaper online.  The Armory seems to price things high.

How you folks like that German stuff? ???

Marshal it must be possible to git Goex cheaper online.  The Armory seems to price things high.


Actually the Armory is usually the cheapest place around here.  I wuz there yesterday, they had a sign fer Goex said $12.50 per pound so I told the guy I'd take 4 pounds of FFG.  When he goes to ring it up it wuz $18.50 per pound, I told him about the sign and Marie came out and said it wuz an old sign they had forgot to take down but they sold it to me at $12.50 and then took the sign down.

I checked online and found a place that I can git it at $11.75 per pound, hazmat and frieght included, but ya have ta buy it in lots of 25lb or 50lb ta git that price.  If ya buy it in lots of 5lb it's $18+ per pound there too.  I don't know if that's better than what ya ben gitin it fer or if ya need any powder but I'm willin ta git it up front if ya want to go in and git some.  What do ya normally use,  FFG or FFFG?  I'm jus gona be usin it in the shotgun for now so I'd be lookin at the FFG.  Until I can find a reliable source of lead and start castin agin I'll stick with the 777 so I can use regular lubed boolits.

Tensleep - signin up fer NC state as FCD, figure ain't got no chance of winnin anything down there anyway so whut the heck.  Might as well end the years big shoot season in a BANG and a CLOUD OF SMOKE!

Went to 2f for ever’thing, cuz.

Little as I’ve been shootin’ lately I’m still pretty good on powder but I wouldn’t be opposed ta gettin’ tagether with a couple other folks for ‘nother couple pounds or three.  Ain't gonna get no cheaper.
