lawndartNope,
It is in Texas. I got in a bag of 416 Taylor brass from Jamison (nice stuff BTW) from Bobby Tomeck. Thank you Bobby. I bought some Swift A-Frame bullets (350 Grains). The last piece to the puzzle for me is a Lee FC die. Then Dummy rounds (and some live ones) go off to Tip Burns.
I didn't like the dummy rounds I made out of resized 458 brass. Will was kind enough to send me some once fired 416 Taylor cases. The Jamison cases came in a few days later.
By and by Mr. slowpoke here will get the dummy (cartridges) and some ammo onto the UPS truck, and the project will once again move forward.
I (and several other fine folks) offered MADDOG the use of our rifles for this season, but he elected to use his son's 458 Win Mag.
Tune in next week.......
