I should say too, I ain't gettin' hammered and reloading.... had two, and the rest can wait til we're done at the bench.
;)
Quantity?........small arsenal.
We're not fast enough with single stage presses, I'm guesstimating that when we finish the 223 cases we've got, 2500 or so total.....and maybe 1000 of various pistol.
I'll catch back later and reply belly, heading out the door in a few for the wife's company christmas party, thats 90min away.
And quickly, I'm already setup to reload (Lee Single Stage). Have reloaded about 2k pistol, and only 275 .223 because thats all the powder I had. I just need dies, bullets, powder, brass, primers. Then again, I already have 1lb of IMR 4895, so that knocks it down.
Also forgot when I transition to my new job, I get to cash in my annual leave hours at my normal rate. That'll be nearly 350 hours of pay and will cover any rifle I want to get. But I have to sock some of it away in savings or the wife will kill me.
Have fun with the wif at the party, BC.
What type of work is she into? .... just curious, you know....scientist married a "genetics engineer"....lol
It's nice to have a 22 year old around.
Neighbor called..."Hey, can you help me unload this heavy shit from my truck?"
....."Yeah, I'll send the kid over to help".... :D
Belly, everything all added up is probably around 10,000 rds.
Hi Lobo... how you doin' brother?
Got any time for yourself this weekend?
The open bar program is a pretty neato deal.
Never invite rednecks to open bar.
Kids back, I need to get to work......damn slave driver.
BC, I bought the 700 sps about 4 years ago for about $475. I too was going the cheap route. I put the BC A2 stock on, added a nice scope base, decent rings, and a $300 scope. The rifle is very accurate and I've shot 0.5 MOA groups quite a few times at 100 and 200 yards. I'm no pro marksman either... It has served me very well. I love the gun..
That said, I would have saved for the 5R if I had the sense that Mr Belly has... It's a keeper and I wish I would have just pulled the trigger for the upgrade back then. I wouldn't even know the difference between the extra $500 now. Take Belly's word and don't buy the SPS if you can eat pbj for a while.
Also don't get cheap on your scope..
Like me...
Or a bunch of Wisconsin goobers. My pa arranged all the beer/booze for our wedding reception and was very conservative given the expected crowd and numbers. Regardless, they sucked the many kegs and handles dry and had to go get more before the night's end. It helps having family that owns a bar and has a basement full of booze when all the liquor stores are closed up.
I haz no be3r, so hitting the sauce and some cherry tonight
It's a Friday night at 2032, and I'm ready for bed. WTF
must have been a long week, day, night, drink, etc.
Just got home from work. One more day of working before I'm done for the year.
I'm going to take the rest of the year off too.
[facepalm] 'cepting we just closed a $4M storage upgrade deal and the kickoff meetings will start next week, onsite kickoff with client the first week of Jan, project start the second week. I hope they mean FULL weeks. I fuckn flew last year on new year's day for work. The only good thing is it will be in FL. Dam med centers don't follow any holiday etiquette.
Flying with a hangover suks balls
Hey Bogie.....
We got our loading done, and then I proceeded to get pretty lubricated......and was trying to teach the kid some pool stuff. We played several games....I sucked tonight, but when ya break flow with what you're doing when playing pool, it's not good. If he really wants to learn about it, I can teach him a lot.
Ho trip to Vegas....who's in?
Man I hope so!!
