    Nice 550B. Change over isn't a big deal so I take it you're a newbie to the 550B.

    no just had no time to load the last of my .45's. I hate doing a change over till I am done with what I am doing....The long part was I had to size my cast rounds and then we were shooting them faster then I could load them last summer ....

    I can't believe O.S.O.K. has not chimed in yet. He is a cast bullet Connoisseur.

    Just looking at the pics again - that one with your wife shooting at the log berm makes me really anxious to get my land deal done. Buying approx 35 acres and will most definately have a range on it.

    Man your going to love it . That is my uncles house ...I learned to shoot right there 30+ years ago . Its great to load five rounds and walk out back and test them out makes fine tuning very easy plus if you ever run out of alloy just dig it out lol .

    Yep - that's exactly what I used to do when I lived on 20 acres near my present home. But it will be a while before I move to this land. Going to slowly build a home there - hopefully paying for it as I go - like the Mexicans do. No debt incurred.
