What do you mean? I am always interested in a place to buy good cast bullets and I just mentioned someone who has given me good service. I used to buy bullets from Marshall, but he was a PITA to deal with. Nah. Just funning about “1000 waiting for you.” |

Nah. Just funing about “1000 waiting for you.” I am way behind on my reloading, and even further behind on the using. Me. too. I always have big plans for the winter and then wind up falling way short. These new bullets MAY inspire me. Plus the new Sig 365XL. We shall see, I’m not holding my breath. |

Plus the new Sig 365XL. We shall see, I’m not holding my breath. I got an email from a place that used to have cheap ammo. 22lr starting at 20¢/round. Cheap FMJ 45 acp $1.20. 45 JHP $2.00. All future burglers can expect to receive a full wadcutter. They aren't worth the price of a hollow point. |

I know times have changed and we have a imposter, but still... 😜 |

I know times have changed and we have a imposter, but still... 😜 Components have gone completely bonkers. Primers are unobtainia. Powder also very difficult. But I just got a notice from a guy I buy from that he got in a small shipment of military pistol powder. I bought 12-pounds even though I don’t really need it. Just that kind of guy.  My dad started me on my reloading “career.” Way back ijn olden tymes he bought me one fo the first Ruger .357 Blackhawks. I had 60 REM/UMC 38 wadcutter cannelured cases and a couple of molds— wadcutter and Keith SWC. From time to time I still run into one of those cases in one of my bins. Nostalgia! |

According to tobaccoreviews.com: "A refined mixture of sweetened black cavendish, vanilla, and Latakia with enough body and character to hold your attention throughout the day!"We'll see. |

The old joke about checking out at WalMart and asking the clerk, "Do you think I bought enough toilet paper for the amount of dietary fiber in my groceries?," feels appropriate here. Did you buy enough pipe cleaners for that amount of tobacco? |

I see my tobacconist must either be extremely busy or overwhelmed. Ordered and paid for my tobacco on Monday and just received my confirmation email now:
2 ounces of Opening Night,
4 ounces HB,
4 ounces Hobbits Weed,
2 ounces Exhausted Rooster,
2 ounces Bengal Slices,
2 ounces Consummate Gentleman, and
2 ounces Molto Dolce
This should hold me over for a while. 😁👍

Hey, hey, an update, finally, on my 4noggins package. First one since the 13th. It has arrived in Memphis.
It went from CT to MS to MA to Memphis, which is exactly the route I usually take when traveling from CT to Memphis.

Looks like my HCA7 made it to the house today, have to wait till I get home to be sure though.
Now I'm debating on whether or not to pick up one of the Revival 131s from P&C while the price is so reasonable...

Well, the debate didn't last long. I pulled the trigger on the Stanwell Revival 131, also black sandblast.
