Quote of the Day.

Gun owners, men and women alike, have been very therapeutic for me. They are an incredibly encouraging and generous lot, letting a newcomer borrow their pistols, try a variety of guns and use up their ammunition. With the price of metal so high, sharing bullets is right up there with putting gas in my tank.

This weekend I loaded 200 rounds of .45ACP (all I had brass for – more is on order), and 500 rounds of .223. I also prepped the 50 .308 cases I fired last weekend, and some time this week I’ll be loading 200 rounds of .308, and later this week I should be receiving 1,000 .45ACP cases and 1,000 200 grain Rainier hollowpoints, but I doubt I’ll get a chance to load many of those before I leave for the NRA convention next week.

Damned straight ammo is expensive.
