Sorry, but I gotta stick up for the mules. They ain't really so much stubborn as they are highly intelligent self-preservationists. If they don't want to do something there's usually a pretty good reason. Sounds like your situation is a little different.

Jump on that! Any radiation will be so low as to be a complete non issue.

Loaded some of the last match ammo for the year. 9mm revolver food. SnS coated bullets this time. They've been ok, not great, so far.

After staying the night from the callshot/Christine dinner, Doc absconded with about 25 pounds of PC bullets in .32, .44, and .476 bullets. The jokes on him as most of these slugs had holes in them. He also made off with a bunch loaded .45 colt ammunition loaded with Scovill HPs and FPs.
Cast up about 20 pounds worth of Miha 385 gr HPs in .478" to replenish what Doc took. It's a start.....

For you 480 folks with chronies..Am wondering where I'm at in relation to Hornady's factory loading w/325gr XTP. Brian Pearce has put in print that 26.3grs of H110 is the equivelant. I'm using 25grs of IMR4227 at the moment. Without having been shot from a good rest yet, its showing huntable accuracy for me. I need to bump out the distance, use a rest and see what I see real quick here.
