Weather has been cold and wet.

I am not complaining. We needed the rain and could use more. So I used the time to cast bullets. I was completely out of the Lyman #454424 Keith SWC and the Lyman #454190 .45 Colt RN bullet. I got several hundred cast. I still need to cast more but I am getting severely LOW on LEAD!!! And I need to cast the NEI 410-230 grain bullet for the .41 Magnum!

I am gonna have to make a run to the metal recyclers and get some lead. That's the path set before me!

The NEI 230 gr. bullet! [image]

I would cast more but I have some mowing to do and running the weed eater. -sigh- But I will get back to it.

That's a handsome little pill.

That looks like it could be loaded in a .45 Colt case and shot through a levergun to good effect on critters.

Sorry .. I messed up and did not post - it's a .41 .. .410"

For the .41 Magnum.

A .45 shaped like that would be pretty cool.
