    Scored some lead ingots

    That's a nice offer Rich, I might take you up on that. My casting experience to date is simply round ball and mini ball for black powder. And that is quite a bit different than what I will be doing with this setup. I have an old small casting pot and dipper but I might buy a newer model that...

    Scored some lead ingots

    SkipD, I like that mold. That might be what I buy. What powder are you fellas using with these SWC's? The Lee and Lyman manuals I have do not list a load for these bullets. I need to make a list of my choices and see what's available locally. I have a couple local gun shops with a decent...

    Scored some lead ingots

    Today I bought 60 lbs of lead from a local seller I met on Craigslist. He was selling it for $1.50 a lb. I got 40 lb of soft lead that I will horde and 20 lb of hard lead that I will use to mold bullets for my 44 magnum. Now to scope out molds and what powder I want to use.

    Ruger Super Blackhawk 44 Magnum

    What a fantastic revolver. Wow this thing is a blast to shoot. After a couple rounds the guy in the stall next to me with an AK variant was stepping over to see what I was shooting. And what a nice trigger. The trigger on this Ruger is smooth as silk.

    What are you carrying today?

    Today I am carrying the XDS 45 OWB in a Galco holster. We made a trip to the local range for a couple hours of shooting and then a late lunch at Burger King. Maybe later we will do a little shopping.

    What are you carrying today?

    7 1/2" barrel. This thing is an impressive chunk of steel and I cannot wait to shoot it. I will not be shooting it very much, but this will be a fantastic caliber to reload for. I posted pictures here: http://www.compactcarryforum.com/index.php/topic,1742.0.html

    Ruger Super Blackhawk 44 Magnum

    Yesterday I went by the local gun shop and picked up my Christmas gift. I put this in the layaway last month with the intention of picking it up just before Christmas, and that's exactly what I did. Check out my new Ruger, this is the New Model Super Blackhawk 44 Magnum made sometime in 2002...

    What are you carrying today?

    I am being extra cautious around the house tonight. XDS 45 in the pocket and a Ruger Super Blackhawk 44 Magnum on the belt. You can never be too careful. LOL, I actually just picked the Blackhawk up today. A Christmas gift for myself.

    Sig P290RS

    Anyone have a Sig P290RS? I have been seeing these pretty cheap and they look like a good CCW. The reviews I have watched it seems people like them. I've heard complaints bout the takedown, but it does not look that hard to me. Any experience with these?

    Where do you buy ammo...

    I believe Cabelas still has free shipping on ammo right now. If so, that helps a lot with the price.

    What are you carrying today?

    Re: Re: What are you carrying today? I love it. Right now I only have a Blackhawk pocket holster but I want a nice iwb or owb holster. I need to try a couple and see what I like with this pistol.

    What are you carrying today?

    Yesterday I carried my new-to-me XDS 45. Today its the LCP because the jeans I am wearing have smallish pockets.

    What are you carrying today?

    Today I am carrying my LCP. But today I also made a deal with my buddy to purchase his XPS 45acp in 2 weeks. Looks like I will have a new winter CCW. 8)
