Like the title says, I finally made some time to get back out there to do more than give it a look and shake my head. It has been used by my kids but I havent done much in there since Feb of this year. I can say some read end chewing is coming.... I worked 2hrs and finally can say there is still a bench under that mess. I did have some help but the truly guilty parties dont live out here so they time is coming. I will give them they did put ALL my notes in a box and keep them separate, now comes the fun of sorting that mess too.... I am not sure if no one had touched them I could figure some of them out... my notes are no where near organized. But I did find what I need for now. All the goodies to reload some 308, only thing I am not providing is bullets and brass, will use the boys. Even it seems I am griping is was nice to just back out there, seemed every time a planed it some got in front of tit at the last moment, usually medical related... I have been trying to help with the hay too... thats interesting there and a story all its own. The foreman let me help some but kept both eyes on me and he can be a real pain at times. LOL My usual job anymore is set in a chair point and growl LOL. OK thats far enough off the trail back to the reloading room. I call the boy and told him I can help this afternoon so get out here, he and my GD (her boyfriend) are headed this way now, I told the wife so now we are on hold until after lunch LOL.. like I said. Anyway he has shot what I call the 308 load and his rifle likes them so its time for him to learn the ropes. Ok he has been helping my SIL reload handgun ammo so he is not a total newb but he is not used to may anal ways just yet LOL. At least he said he has deprimed them and worked on the little hole in the prime hole LOL I can see this is going to be fun. But I need this fun right now, he can do the lever pulling and as i pull out my hair he will learn how to set the dies to HIS rifle this time. The ammo he used was set to one of grand sons rifle but we may leave that alone for now, he shot well enough to hunt with and he will be with the SIL. I am still on lock-down as far as hunting goes. My plan is to load about 20 with is bullets then use the bullets he has used so he can see if they is a significant difference. Once he figures out most of our loads have been worked on several time I figure he will settle down and not chase what his buddies say is the best way LOL.. Got to love an arm chair quarterback they never seem to be wrong....
OK they are hear got to scoot (slowly) get lunch done and get back out there.
