I am down to my last two boxes of .38 special lead round nose which means that after my next CAS session at the club I will be out of ammo. I normally order in bulk from Aoraki but they are out and can’t say when they will have any in stock. What has the world come to?
can you cast them solid leadQuote:

I have a mental block/hurdle when it comes to reloads. At least once on every club shoot I see shooters dealing with a squib projectile in the barrel of their rifle or revolver from forgetting to put any powder in the round or I see a round going so slow from lack of powder that it doesn’t make twenty yards to a target. I have fellow club members that have offered to load for me but just can’t bring myself to even give it a go. That’s on me but my view is that I ought to be able to buy what I want. Maybe I should be looking to import for myself.
I though they had stopped making waikato.
waikato would lubricate anything dozers tractors - fat girl in the corner at the pub - cures constipation - colds - std,s - like rawleighs was advertised as being for man or beast - hell likely even worm ya calves with it - cause ya cant drink it yuk yukQuote:

I know I must see if my bottle store has a single bottle and I will try and see what you see in it - since you so eloquently extoll its virtues- I cant remember what its like but I think I had it years ago
@waimo put up post a little time back on animal friendly .22lr rounds..no powder or priming compound in them..... so it happens with factory stuff too.Quote:

A lock out die stops squibs.
It’s low alcohol 4% so good for old fellas that can’t remember what they had for breakfast let alone how many they’ve drunk.Quote:

And look what happened to Zeus and Apollo. Good as reason as any to avoid that I say...Quote:

Been off the forum for a bit, come back and every other thread seems to have banned members in it. What's going on, has the ban button got crumbs jamming it up?
Maybe Zukerberg is in control?Quote:
