Calico Mary Posted April 20, 2013 Posted April 20, 2013 I dunno.....I'm a thunkin' on it!! So many possibilities!
Apache Hawk 60642 Posted April 20, 2013 Posted April 20, 2013 Reloaded a little over two hundred shotgun shells this morning, then was off to a job interview, now just sitting at home debating about reloading some more.... Decisions decisions Ifin' I able ta shoot da same amount of matches dis year as last year, din I got all da ammo I need til tree years from now ! Dat cabin fever thinger, ya know !
Grizzly Dave Posted April 20, 2013 Author Posted April 20, 2013 If I ever get this all loaded up I'll be set til fall, but will need to load a crap load of shotgun shells to match that. I can only sit at the rock chucker for so long though before I need a break, and tylonol for my shoulders. Hoping to get the rest of the 1500 thru the belling die this weekend, then can work on hand priming during the week while watching TV or whatever.
evil dogooder Posted April 20, 2013 Posted April 20, 2013 Shotgun reloads are going to be just for varmint control and practice. Still haven't found a load that works the mrs. Match shooting i have a few cases of shells for. She doesn't even like the AA featherlites. So we ordered even a smaller bushing for the reader
Grizzly Dave Posted April 20, 2013 Author Posted April 20, 2013 I reckon ya gotta do what cha gotta do to keep momma happy. If'n she enjoys shooting, it means you get to go more.

Well....at least y'all can say ya did git ta go shootin' once dis year. Me.........I aint gonna say nothin' ! !
evil dogooder Posted April 20, 2013 Posted April 20, 2013 I reckon ya gotta do what cha gotta do to keep momma happy. If'n she enjoys shooting, it means you get to go more. She enjoys it a lot but we don't shoot too many together, one because she is still breastfeeding but with the cost of the shoot plus the cost of daycare it makes it pretty expensive. So we alternate who watches the kids and who has the day to play, of course shegoes shopping on here free days instead sometimes

Guess coming home late and smelling of whisky didn't hep much. But I'll do it again sometime. Yea....Mommas seem to frown on dat fer some reason or nother..... Been known to do ta more din a time or too an didn't care what Momma thought ! And ifin' I can pull it off, Badger.....I'll most likely do it agin fer shore ! ! !
Calico Mary Posted April 20, 2013 Posted April 20, 2013 Yeah, once so far....should have been a lot more than that by now! Plus we ain't gonna get to go to Lake George next month....I've got my fingers crossed for the next Pawnee shoot, that's a whole month away

When Momma has a free day, and you take over her duties and Momma goes shoppin'....... Do dat mean ya breastfeed da kid two ? Gawd man.........I need a drink ........bad like !
Badger Mountain Charlie SASS #43172 Posted April 20, 2013 Posted April 20, 2013 Looky at the bright side Calico. You can do a heap of sewing in a month. Make Hawk and Evil, both, a nice warm Quilt.
evil dogooder Posted April 20, 2013 Posted April 20, 2013 Silly apache chicken... Just for that umI'm going to make it rain for next months shoot
evil dogooder Posted April 20, 2013 Posted April 20, 2013 Bmc has a point... Im still waiting for my quilt
Calico Mary Posted April 20, 2013 Posted April 20, 2013 I'm actually working on one for Hawk, and another one for Pit Bull Tex, and two more for friends here in Denver....gotta get those four done before I can start anymore, the sewing room just ain't big enough to hold anymore and I'm losing my extra storage space in less than a month when the kid comes home from college for the summer.....
evil dogooder Posted April 20, 2013 Posted April 20, 2013 Just tried a smaller bushing in the press but these shells are still a bit stiff think ill have to get a smaller one. Sure made a mess out of a few rabbits, not sure I'm going to have much left for the pot
Grizzly Dave Posted April 20, 2013 Author Posted April 20, 2013 OK, I'm fed, had leftover pizza. Burpppp. I'm full. There is always the Boulder match second Saturday don't forget Calico. That's my next chance.
Calico Mary Posted April 20, 2013 Posted April 20, 2013 Won't be able to make that one either Grizz. Lake George is the day we'll be leaving for Utah, Boulder is the day we'll be coming back from Utah.....
evil dogooder Posted April 20, 2013 Posted April 20, 2013 Well just think of the components your saving
Calico Mary Posted April 20, 2013 Posted April 20, 2013 Now days that's not necessarily a bad thing....
Calico Mary Posted April 20, 2013 Posted April 20, 2013 The snow isn't supposed to be here til Monday, and it only rained enough to make the street wet..... Hey, Buick and I must be special, we got a letter from Barack Obama today! Buick brought in the mail right before he went to get the pizza, and one of the envelopes had a return address of the White House....opened it but didn't read it, told Buick I didn't need it ruining my appetite.....
Apache Hawk 60642 Posted April 20, 2013 Posted April 20, 2013 Silly apache chicken... Just for that umI'm going to make it rain for next months shoot Ya know Evil........no matter how much I tell ya......ya just keep on diggin'........ I WILL have my day and pay backs are a bitch so I'm told !
Apache Hawk 60642 Posted April 20, 2013 Posted April 20, 2013 Bmc has a point... Im still waiting for my quilt Doin' that much dancin'......ya gonna be waitin' a mighty long time !
Apache Hawk 60642 Posted April 20, 2013 Posted April 20, 2013 I'm actually working on one for Hawk, and another one for Pit Bull Tex, and two more for friends here in Denver....gotta get those four done before I can start anymore, the sewing room just ain't big enough to hold anymore and I'm losing my extra storage space in less than a month when the kid comes home from college for the summer..... Just rent a tow behind travel trailer wif a bump out fer her. She'll be happier din a hawg rollin' round in da SNOW !
Calico Mary Posted April 20, 2013 Posted April 20, 2013 hey, I worked on yours for a while this morning....I've got the top almost finished, just gotta work on the borders....if I can decide how I want to do them
Apache Hawk 60642 Posted April 20, 2013 Posted April 20, 2013 Just tried a smaller bushing in the press but these shells are still a bit stiff think ill have to get a smaller one. Sure made a mess out of a few rabbits, not sure I'm going to have much left for the pot Sopposed to have pressure on the press.........packs and settles the shot down. Change the shot size, I figure.
