Right you are, Hawg.  Sorry guys.  The post was perfectly clear, I need to quit speed reading and slow down some.

Relax, G.

Who's Evelyn Wood?

She was a teacher that advocated speed reading. She died sometime in the 90's.

She goes way back.  JFK was one of her devotees.  She was sort of the Scientology of reading technique.  Her schools were called “institutes”.  Pay money - advance to higher levels of reading consciousness sort of deal. A franchise operation;  a “thing” for a while. 


Anyway, Dragoon Rick may be on to something.  Everybody is on the make for .380 cause Speer/Hornady  doesn’t make them.  Cast your own or deal with someone who does.

I’d like a line on .36 slugs with a generous meplat.  Pointed bullets are too hydrodynamic.

270 lbs. isn't going to last long if you start selling it. The question you have to ask yourself is how much do I have in it and how much is it going to cost me to replace it when it's gone.
Exactly. My first thought was "You're almost out of lead!"
