OK, one resolution. I won't buy or sell a firearm. Fat chance of me keeping that, but what I really want to do is go through my collection and clean up all the "let's try this one" bullets and loads I've accumulated.
So, what about supplies? Well, bullets I have, and I am starting to cast my own as well. Powder - I'll be trying a bunch of new powders. It would be nice if a few tons of Reloder 17 showed up, but I don't think it will. So a number of pet loads will be redone. Primers - "The sun'll come out tomorrow..." I am fairly well fixed with small rifle, so that's where I'll start. I usually shoot TAC and CFE223 in .223 Rem, but last week I started working in Win 748. Not exactly revolutionary, but it all helps. For others, I have Ramshot Big Game and Hunter, IMR-4955, and Alliant 4000-MR.
My modest collection includes some originals and replicas of 19th century arms. No pristine collectors for me, all shooters. And I have neglected my flintlocks. That's one way around primers. So, here we go. What are y'all up to?
